Variety Description

Varieties used for comparison: 'Wentworth' and 'HY300-HRW'

Summary: At booting, 'HY301-HRW' has a semi-erect growth habit whereas it is erect in 'Wentworth'. The frequency of plants with recurved/drooping flag leaves is low to medium on 'HY301-HRW' whereas it is medium to high on the plants of 'HY300-HRW'. The intensity of anthocyanin colouration on the flag leaf auricles of 'HY301-HRW' is very weak whereas it is very strong on 'Wentworth' and strong to very strong on 'HY300-HRW'. 'HY301-HRW' has strong to very strong glaucosity of the culm whereas it is medium on the culms of both reference varieties. At maturity, the spike attitude of 'HY301-HRW' is inclined whereas it is nodding on 'HY300-HRW'. The kernel size of 'HY301-HRW' is small to medium whereas it is large on 'Wentworth' and medium to large on 'HY300-HRW'.

Origin & Breeding History: 'HY301-HRW' (experimental designations TW301-020 and DANW3003) is derived from the cross between 'Warthog' / TW 97407 made in the lab at the Nairn Research Facility, Ailsa Craig, Ontario in 1999-2000. The F1 seed was planted in the lab in 2000 and was doubled using the doubled haploid (maize pollinated) method. The F2 was planted into the nursery in the fall of 2002 and selected in the summer of 2003 for yield, seed, agronomic and quality characteristics. TW301-020 was entered into a single replicate trial in the fall of 2004 and subsequent yield evaluations through 2007. TW301-020 was tested for two years in the Orthogonal Hard Wheat Trial (OCCC) during the 2007-2008 and 2008-2009 growing seasons.

Tests & Trials: Test and trials for 'HY301-HRW' were conducted during the 2012 and 2013 growing seasons at the Nairn Research Facility, Ailsa Craig, Ontario. Plot size was 4.14 metres squared and consisted of 6 rows. The row length was 3.0 metres with 18 cm spacing between rows. There were 4 replicates in an RCB Design. Measured characteristics were based on 20 measurements per variety per year.
