Abstract
Abstract AAC Westlock, an awned hard red spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivar, combines high grain yield and good agronomic characteristics with excellent resistance to leaf, stripe, and stem rust (including variants of Ug99), Fusarium head blight (FHB), and common bunt. Based on 40 station-years of registration trial data from 2018 to 2020, the grain yield of AAC Westlock was 1% higher than AAC Foray and 7% over AAC Penhold. AAC Westlock was significantly shorter than AAC Foray, had straw strength similar to AAC Penhold, and maturity similar to AAC Foray. AAC Westlock had similar test weight and protein concentration but lower thousand kernel weight as compared to AAC Foray. AAC Westlock had milling and baking quality suitable for grades of the Canada Prairie Spring Red wheat market class.
期刊介绍:
Published since 1957, the Canadian Journal of Plant Science is a bimonthly journal that contains new research on all aspects of plant science relevant to continental climate agriculture, including plant production and management (grain, forage, industrial, and alternative crops), horticulture (fruit, vegetable, ornamental, greenhouse, and alternative crops), and pest management (entomology, plant pathology, and weed science). Cross-disciplinary research in the application of technology, plant breeding, genetics, physiology, biotechnology, microbiology, soil management, economics, meteorology, post-harvest biology, and plant production systems is also published. Research that makes a significant contribution to the advancement of knowledge of crop, horticulture, and weed sciences (e.g., drought or stress resistance), but not directly applicable to the environmental regions of Canadian agriculture, may also be considered. The Journal also publishes reviews, letters to the editor, the abstracts of technical papers presented at the meetings of the sponsoring societies, and occasionally conference proceedings.
