Canadian U S testing over four years shows 1952 54 complete deaths with only two survivors in 1953, and 1955 yields limited by low survival. Snow cover and mild springs improve outcomes but current varieties are not commercially viable on the prairies.

Dr M N Grant reports on efforts to improve sawfly resistance in Rescue and Chinook wheat varieties through crossbreeding with global and durum sources. The aim is stronger straw, higher yield, rust and shattering resistance, and better milling and baking quality. Developments include crossbreeding with African and grass relatives, long term breeding programs, and expectations for a more stable resistance than Rescue or Chinook.
