World of Wheat introduces three new rust resistant varieties
Three new rust resistant wheat varieties will be grown across the prairie this year. Redman from Dominion Laboratory of Plant Breeding Winnipeg crosses Regent and Canus, sometimes yielding more than Thatcher. Saunders from Central Experimental Farm Ottawa crosses Thatcher with 44-7, maturing earlier and suited to Alberta foothills and northern regions. Lee, an American CT. 509 bearded line from Minnesota, yields higher than others and matures near Thatcher. All are approved for high milling and baking qualities.
