Interpretive Summary:

Technical Abstract: The Uniform Regional Hard Red Spring Wheat Performance Nursery had 30 entries from 6 public wheat breeding programs, 4 USA and 2 Canadian, and 1 private company in 1995. It was grown at 22 locations in Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana, Wisconsin, Idaho, Wyoming, Washington, and Canada and harvested at 21 locations. Severe scab attacked four locations in 1995 but data were included with other locations. SBE0050 was highest yielding with SD3156 not different. MN91309 and ND678 did not differ from SD3156 for yield. This is the second year that SBE0050 was the highest yielding entry, and it is a selection made jointly by USDA-ARS and the University of Minnesota from germplasm donated from Pioneer Hi-Bred, Inc. Elite lines exhibiting best scab resistance at St. Paul for kernel resistance were SD3161, MN2535, and SD3164. This report is distributed to about 65 research and administrative personnel.
