Variety Description

Varieties used for comparison: '25R47' and 'FT Wonder'

Summary: 'HY 271-SRW' has absent or very weak anthocyanin colouration of the coleoptile whereas '25R47' has moderate anthocyanin. The plants of 'HY 271-SRW' are taller than those of '25R47' and shorter with smaller flag leaves than 'FT Wonder'. The spikes of 'HY 271-SRW' have a more erect attitude than those of both reference varieties. The awns of 'HY 271-SRW' are longer and less spreading than those of 'FT Wonder'. 'HY 271-SRW' has a shorter spike than 'FT Wonder'. The lower glume of 'HY 271-SRW' is longer with a narrower shoulder and longer beak than that of both reference varieties. The shape of the shoulder of the lower glume is sloping for 'HY 271-SRW' while it is slightly sloping for '25R47' and slightly sloping to straight for 'FT Wonder'. The beak of the lemma of 'HY 271-SRW' is straight to slightly curved whereas it is moderate to strongly curved for '25R47' and slight to moderately curved for 'FT-Wonder'. 'HY 271-SRW' kernels have a shallower crease than those of both reference varieties.

Origin & Breeding History: 'HY 271-SRW' (experimental designation TW271*099) is a winter wheat variety that was developed by Hyland Seeds (A Division of Dow AgroSciences, Inc.) from a cross between '25W60' and 'P2540', made at the Nairn Research Laboratory in Ailsa Craig, Ontario from 1999 to 2000. In 2000, the F1 seed was planted in the laboratory and doubled using the doubled haploid (maize pollinated) process. In the fall of 2001, the F2 was planted in the nursery and during the summer of 2002 selections were made. In the fall of 2002, 'TW271*099' (HY 271-SWR) was entered into a 2-replicate trial and into subsequent yield evaluation trials through to 2008. After two years in the Orthogonal Soft Wheat Trial (OCCC), 'HY 271-SRW' was supported for registration in January of 2009.

Tests & Trials: Tests and trials were conducted during 2010 and 2011. The plot for each of these years was planted at the Nairn Research Testing Location (Stewart Research Acres) in Nairn, Ontario in the fall of 2009 and 2010. The plots were planted at a rate of 400 seeds/square metre, 4 metres long, and consisted of four replicates. In the spring of each year, the plots were cut back to 3 metres and finally consisted of 5 x 23 cm rows. The total plot area was 1.38 metres x 3 metres = 4.14 metres.
