Summary: The cotyledon of 'PA8CN149' is shorter and narrower than that of '5440'. The leaf of 'PA8CN149' has a sharp margin whereas the leaf of the reference varieties has a rounded margin. The leaf and petiole of 'PA8CN149' are longer than that of 'PA1CN131'. 'PA8CN149' flowers later than 'PA1CN131'. The petal of 'PA8CN149' is shorter than that of '5440' whereas it is longer than that of 'PA1CN131'. The silique attitude of 'PA8CN149' is horizontal whereas the attitude is erect for 'PA1CN131'. The silique of 'PA8CN149' is longer than the reference varieties. 'PA8CN149' has a longer silique beak than 'PPS01-140 A-Line'. The pedicel of 'PA8CN149' is shorter than that of '5440'. 'PA8CN149' matures later than 'PPS01-140 A-Line'. At maturity, the plant of 'PA8CN149' is taller than that of 'PA1CN131'. The seed coat of 'PA8CN149' is brown whereas it is black for 'PPS01-140 A-Line' and '5440'.

DISEASE REACTION: moderately resistant to Blackleg (Leptosphaeria maculans asexual stage: Phoma lingam)

Origin & Breeding History: 'PA8CN149' is a male sterile line which contains the Ms8 gene construct in the heterozygous state. It was derived by backcrossing a double haploid line, which was extracted in 2010, to a male sterile line containing the Ms8 gene. The initial cross was made at BASF Canada Inc. in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada in 2009. 'PA8CN149' was selected in 2018 on the basis of male sterility stability, expression of tolerance to glufosinate-ammonium herbicide and good combining ability with numerous restorer lines. Other selection parameters included height, vigour, maturity, blackleg resistance, clubroot resistance, seed pod shattering resistance, oil content, fatty acid profile and glucosinolate content.

Tests & Trials: The comparative trials for 'PA8CN149' were conducted during the 2018 and 2019 growing seasons in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. They were set up in a RCB Design with 3 replications per variety. Each year, the plots consisted of 3 rows that were 6 metres in length with a spacing of 25 cm between rows and 50 cm between plots. The planting density resulted in a total of approximately 1300 plants per variety. The measured characteristics were based on 30 measurements of the cotyledon, leaf, flower and plant height and 60 measurements of the silique. The means were based on a two year average. Mean differences were significant at the 2% probability level based on LSD values.
