Interpretive Summary:

Technical Abstract: The Hard Red Spring Wheat Uniform Regional Nursery (HRSWURN) was planted for the 85th year in 2015. The nursery contained 28 entries submitted by 6 different scientific or industry breeding programs, and 5 checks (Table 1). Trials were conducted as randomized complete blocks with three replicates except where noted. The HRSWURN was planted at 14 locations in 4 different states in the USA (MN, ND, SD, MT). Thirteen locations provided data included in this report (Figure 1, Table 2). Data summaries for each of the reporting locations are presented in individual tables. For each location summary, entries are listed in descending order of yield. Overall means across locations for a set of core traits are summarized in Table 16, and yield rankings for individual locations are found in Table 17. Entries were also evaluated for various diseases at different locations; these can be found by looking at individual location data summaries. Leaf rust and stem rust resistance was evaluated in St. Paul, MN. These results are presented in Tables 18-19. Entries were evaluated in Fusarium head blight nurseries at Crookston and St. Paul, MN; these results are provided in Tables 20 and 21. Molecular marker genotyping for select agronomic, quality and disease resistance traits was also performed; this information is presented in Table 22. The highest average yielding location was St. Paul, MN, with 80.8 Bu/Ac, while the lowest yielding location was Bozeman, MT, with 32 Bu/Ac.
