Origin & Breeding History: 'Talento' (experimental designation IN 4176) is the result of the cross 99016 / 99010 made in 1999 in Lelystad, The Netherlands. 99016 = Sponsor x Eclipse and 99010 = Venture x Lumina. In 2000 a single plant was selected and advanced using the single seed descent method. Selection criteria include yield, plant height, resistance to mildew and resistance to lodging. One line was bulked in the F7 generation (2005) to become 'Talento'.
Tests & Trials: Tests and trials were conducted during the summers of 2007 and 2008 in Barrhead, Alberta. Plots consisted of 4 rows with a row spacing of 15 cm and a row length of 4.5 metres. There were 4 replicates.
