Remarks:
CPS varieties are more susceptible to take-all root rot than other wheat classes. More recent varieties of CPSR have improved quality compared to AC Foremost and
AC Taber. Conquer VB and Enchant VB are midge resistant CPSR varieties. VB - designates a varietal blend to preserve the Sm1midge tolerance gene. New registrations: AAC Ryley
(
HY1312). Varieties in the General Purpose market class are intended for ethanol and livestock feed purposes. AAC Proclaim (GP80) and AAC Innova (GP47) - Insufficient data to
describe. - Protected by Plant Breeders' Rights.

1
Yield Test Categories are based on the site means for small plot trials. The defined range for each Yield Test Category is provided in bu/ac. The actual yields for AC Barrie are reported
in the Overall and Low, Medium, and High Yield Test Categories. Note that small plot yields may be 10-15% higher than field scale results.
2
Yields are reported relative to AC Barrie.
Varieties that are statistically higher (+) or lower (-) yielding than AC Barrie are indicated. No symbol after the yield figure indicates no statistical difference.
3
Maturities rated as: VE =
Very Early; E = Early; M = Medium; L = Late; VL = Very Late. The long term average maturity for AC Barrie is 106 days and is rated as Medium (M).
4
Thousand Seed Weight.
5
Resistance/Tolerance Ratings: VG = Very Good; G = Good; F = Fair; P = Poor; VP = Very Poor.
6
Varieties with ratings of Fair (F) to Very Poor (VP) for loose smut or bunt should be
treated with a systemic seed treatment to reduce the potential for infection.
7
Fusarium Head Blight (FHB) infection is highly influenced by the environment and heading date. Under high
levels of FHB, all varieties will sustain damage. Good (G) and Very Good (VG) tolerance ratings for FHB do not equate to immunity.
