Origin & Breeding History: PA22CN198' is a male sterile line which contains the Ms8 gene construct in the heterozygous state. It was derived by backcrossing a double haploid line, which was extracted in 2016, to a male sterile line which contained the Ms8 gene. The initial cross was made at BASF Canada Inc. in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada in 2016. PA22CN198' was selected in 2019 based on male sterility stability, expression of resistance to glufosinate-ammonium herbicide, and good combining ability with numerous restorer lines. Other selection parameters included height, vigour, maturity, blackleg resistance, clubroot resistance, resistance to seed pod shattering, oil content, fatty acid profile and glucosinolate content. Breeder seed production commenced in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan in 2020.
Tests & Trials: The comparative trials for PA22CN198' were conducted during the 2022 and 2023 growing seasons in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. Trials were arranged in a RCB design with 3 replications per variety. The plots consisted of 3 rows that were 6 metres in length with spacing of 25 cm between rows and 50 cm between plots. The planting density resulted in a total of approximately 1300 plants per variety per year. The measured characteristics were based on 30 measurements except for silique characteristics which were based on 60 measurements. The means were based on a two-year average. Mean differences were significant at the 2% probability level based on LSD values.
