Registration of ‘Tandem’ Wheat

Registration of ‘NE01643’ Wheat

“…In irrigated environments, NE01643 is similar to Jagalene, Wesley, and Millennium for lodging, and less than Wahoo (Table 1) Other measurements of performance from comparison trials show that NE01643 is moderately late in flowering date (flowers 143 d after Jan.1, data from observations in NE), about 1 d later flowering than ‘Wesley’ and 0.5 d earlier than Millennium, respectively. Using data from the NRPN (Table 2), NE01643 is 2 d later than ‘Nekota’ (PI 584997, Haley et al, 1996) and 3 d earlier than Nuplains and ‘Harding’ (PI 608049, Haley et al, 2000) for heading. The winter hardiness of NE01643 (84%) is good to very good, similar to Nekota (84%), and comparable to other winter wheat cultivars adapted and commonly grown in Nebraska and South Dakota.…”

Registration of ‘Alice’ Wheat

“…Mixograph mix time for Alice (4.8 min) was intermediate between Wendy (3.2 min) and Wesley (7.0 min). Bread baking quality of Alice was better than all hard winter experimental lines and checks, including ‘Tandem’ (PI 601817; Haley et al, 1998b), entered in the 2004 Wheat Quality Council tests. Alice has moderate grain polyphenol oxidase levels (4.0), similar to Trego (4.1), higher than Wendy (3.4), but lower than ‘NuFrontier’ (5) (on a 1–5 scale; lower is better).…”

“…Alice was among the earliest maturing cultivars (149 d), 1 d later than Wendy (PI 638521; Ibrahim et al, 2006), 2 d earlier than ‘Wesley’ (PI 605742; Peterson et al, 2001), and 6 d earlier than ‘Harding’ (PI 608049; Haley et al, 2000) (Table 1). Plant height of Alice (70.9 cm) is slightly taller than Wendy (67.9 cm) and Wesley (69.3 cm) and 15 cm shorter than Harding (85.9 cm).…”

Registration of ‘NH03614 CL’ Wheat

“…In 2006 it was the second highest yielding line (4740 kg ha −1 ) of 30 lines tested and in 2007 it was the eighth highest yielding line (3577 kg ha −1 ) of 33 lines tested. Using the 2‐yr averages, NH03614 CL (4159 kg ha −1 ) was higher yielding than ‘Harding’ (3765 kg ha −1 , Haley et al, 2000), ‘Kharkof’ (2907 kg ha −1 , CI 1442), ‘Nuplains’ (3434 kg ha −1 , PI612576), and Wesley (4069 kg ha −1 ) that are the nursery check cultivars, as well as AgriPro ‘Hawken’ (PVP200700350). In other measures of performance, NH03614 CL (74.8 kg hl −1 ) had lower grain volume weight than Harding and Kharkof, but a higher one than Wesley and Nuplains.…”
