KERNEL: amber, medium to large, medium length, medium to wide, elliptical shape, dark colouration with phenol

Origin & Breeding History: '841446398' (experimental designation RSI 204719) originated from a cross conducted prior to 2001 between three proprietary lines in the Resource Seeds International Triticale Breeding Program in Woodland California, USA. The first cross was conducted between lines 'XG0696' and '28581 AWNLESS' with a subsequent cross to line 'L762'. The variety was shelved until it was selected for further evaluation in replicated silage trials in Othello, Washington from 2010 to 2016. In 2013, 50 lines were selected and planted in purification headrows and examined for uniformity, plant height, awnlessness and maturity. In 2015, 3 of these lines were selected and planted in progeny plots near Othello, Washington. In 2016, two of the progeny plots were selected based on uniformity and bulked to form breeder seed. '841446398' was selected based on reduced awns, silage yield, grain yield, maturity and standability.

Tests & Trials: The comparative trial for '841446398' was conducted during the 2022 growing season at Ag-Quest in Taber, Alberta. The spring sown trial consisted of 4 aligned replicates. Each plot consisted of 6 rows with a row length of approximately 6 metres with 0.23 metre inter-row spacing and 0.46 metre spacing between the plots. The seeding density was approximately 112kg per hectare resulting in approximately 4600 plants per variety. Measured characteristics were based on 20 measurements per variety. Mean differences were significant at the 5% probability level based on a paired Student's t-test. Results were supported by the official technical examination report 201700389, purchased from the Plant Variety Protection Office in Washington, District of Columbia, USA.
