Varieties of Cereal and Oilseed Crops for Alberta

Annual variety performance

information can help producers

with crop decisions.

This annual publication provides information on cereal and oilseed variety performance in Alberta

and northeastern British Columbia. Important agronomic characteristics and disease resistance information are provided for varieties of wheat, barley, oat, rye, triticale, flax and canola.

Regional variety testing programThe Alberta Regional Variety Testing program for cereals and flax is coordinated by the Alberta Regional Variety Advisory Committee (ARVAC) and Alberta Agriculture and Forestry (AF). Funding for the program is provided by the following:

• Alberta Agriculture and Forestry• Alberta Wheat Commission• Alberta Barley Commission• Alberta Oat Growers Association• Alberta Seed Growers• Alberta Seed Processors• Prairie Oat Growers Association• Entry fees for the varieties being tested

Data for this publication come from various sources:

• Ag-Quest• Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada• Alberta Agriculture and Forestry• Alberta Innovates Technology Futures• British Columbia Grain Producers• Farming Smarter• Lakeland College • Nutrien Ag Solutions• SARDA Ag Research• University of Alberta

• Battle River Research Group (BRRG)• Chinook Applied Research Association (CARA)• Gateway Research Organization (GRO)• Lakeland Applied Research Association (LARA)• McKenzie Applied Research Association (MARA)• Prairie Grain Development Committee

Yield results and reportingVariety choice should never be based solely on yield performance, as it is only one factor that affects net return. The genetic yield potential of a variety is often masked by numerous factors, some of which can be controlled through variety choice and others through astute agronomic management.

2

Producers are encouraged to consider other characteristics such as maturity, plant height, lodging and disease/pest resistance when deciding which varieties to grow. Long term satisfaction with a variety is often related to non-yield characteristics.

New format for reporting yieldContinuing for 2019, the yield data for CWRS wheat are reported in two ways. The first method is the traditional manner that has been used since 2010 (see below). New in 2018 was an alternative method that reports head-to-head comparisons of all varieties on the annual trials within a five-year timeframe.

This new method retains low and high yield test categories based on the average yield of Carberry (67 bu/ac), the long term check in the Regional Variety Trials. The advantage of this method is that all comparisons within a column are valid, rather than only to the check.

The Overall Yield is also reported using all available data, but since this is a dataset with varying numbers of comparisons over different years, the only valid comparison is to the check, as has been the case with the older method. Your comments on this new format are welcome.

Producers have often asked for additional checks in the regional variety trials that reflect more commonly grown varieties. Starting in 2018, two additional varieties are grown as “benchmark” checks and reflect the two most popular varieties for the crop or within a market class during the previous year, based on crop insurance data. These checks will change as the popularity of varieties change.

Traditional yield reporting methodExercise caution when making yield comparisons among varieties. Variety yield should only be directly compared to the standard reference check. Actual head-to-head yield comparisons between other varieties may not have occurred.

Small plot agronomic trials are expensive to grow, and new varieties are registered every year. It is simply impractical to grow all varieties at the same time.

Following several years of data collection, the yield performance for a particular variety stabilizes relative

to the check, and further testing is no longer required. It is for these reasons that the check varieties are grown every year (e.g. Carberry for CWRS wheat, AC Metcalfe for barley) and that changes to these checks are infrequent. The “Overall Station Years of Testing” column provides an indication of the unbalanced nature of the dataset.

At least six station-years of yield data collected over two years are required before reporting the figures in this publication. For new varieties, Overall Yield is often the first indication of yield potential relative to the check. As additional data become available, yield performance is also expressed on the basis of environmental productivity (Yield Test Categories of Low, Medium, High and Very High).

Yield rankings among varieties can change substantially due to growing conditions. To reflect these differences, results from a test site that produced high yield in a particular year are placed into the database for “high” yielding environments. The same site may contribute to the “low” yield category in a drought year, when yields are low.

Consistent performance over all Yield Test Categories indicates that a variety has environmental responses similar to the check and may have good yield stability over a wide range of environments.

Scientific studies conducted on variety performance in western Canada have shown that Yield Test Category analysis provides a more reliable indication of yield performance than results organized by geographic region.

The yield comparison tables have several features:

• Overall actual yield of the check (bushels/acre) based on all data available to the testing program is provided along with the number of station years of testing.

• The range in yield for each Yield Test Category is defined.

• Actual yield of the check in each Yield Test Category is reported.

• For varieties with sufficient data, the Overall Yield and performance in each Yield Test Category is expressed relative to the check.

To make effective use of the yield comparison tables, producers should set a realistic yield target for the season and determine where it fits within the Low,

3

Medium, High and Very High Yield Test Categories. This approach facilitates matching of variety choice to expected productivity levels and is similar to that used when making decisions on other levels of inputs.

Please note that the actual yield levels indicated are from small plot trials, which may be 15 to 20 per cent higher than yields expected under commercial production.

Maturity ratingsAs is the case for yield, growing conditions have a tremendous influence on the date of maturity. For example, a variety of CWRS wheat may mature in 98 days in Lethbridge, but take 103 days in Edmonton. In the same way, a two-day difference in maturity between varieties in southern Alberta may amount to a five-day difference in a more northerly location.

To take this factor into account, maturity is expressed using a six-category scale: Very Early, Early, Medium, Late, Very Late and, in rare instances, Extremely Late. To aid producers with this relative scale, the average number of days to maturity for the check is reported. Note that this scale is different for each crop type. For example, an early barley variety will mature much earlier than an early flax variety.

Seed size and plant populationsSeed size within a crop kind will vary from variety to variety, requiring adjustment of seeding volumes to achieve desired plant populations. Some of the tables provide an average 1,000 kernel weight (TKW) that can be used as a guide for variety differences.

The best approach is to determine the 1,000 kernel weight of the seed to be planted, germination rate, emergence mortality and in the case of fall seeded crops, an estimate of winterkill.

For more information and user-friendly seeding rate calculators that take into account these and other considerations, please see the website www.agric.gov.ab.ca/app21/ldcalc

Plant Breeders’ RightsPlant Breeders’ Rights (PBR) are a form of intellectual property rights by which plant breeders can protect

new varieties in the same way an inventor protects a new invention with a patent.

In 2015, Canada amended the PBR Act to bring it into conformity with UPOV 91. Varieties protected under the previous legislation (UPOV 78) are indicated with the logo, whereas those protected under the new legislation that are shown with a new logo. The use of the ▲ logo indicates that an application for PBR has been accepted and the variety has provisional protection.

For more information on Plant Breeders’ Rights, please see www.pbrfacts.ca or the Canadian Food Inspection Agency website at www.inspection.gc.ca

CanolaThe Alberta Regional Variety Advisory Committee (ARVAC) does not take any responsibility for accuracy or validity of the canola performance data.

Diseases, seed treatment and seed testing• Disease ratings are compiled from various data

sources in Alberta and other prairie provinces.• Treat rye and flax seed to control seedling blight,

cereal seed for smuts and fusarium, canola seed to control flea beetle, seedling blight and the seed-borne phase of virulent blackleg.

• Wheat with Moderately Susceptible (MS) or Susceptible (S) ratings for common bunt should be treated with a systemic fungicide as low levels of infection will restrict marketability.

• Refer to labels for maximum storage periods of treated seed.

• Treated seed must not be fed to livestock, poultry or wildlife and cannot be sold for feed.

• Leaf spot ratings in the wheat tables are a combination of resistance to tan spot and septoria leaf disease complex.

• Fusarium head blight (FHB), caused by Fusarium graminearum and other species, is an increasing problem in Alberta. The relative ranking of crops from most susceptible to least susceptible is durum wheat, spring and winter wheat, triticale, barley and oat. Corn is a host of F. graminearum and can serve as a source of infection when residue is left on the ground. FHB infection is highly influenced by the environment and heading date. A resistant (R) tolerance rating for

4

FHB does not equate to immunity. Under severe epidemics, all varieties will sustain damage. All seed should be tested for the presence of FHB and treated with an appropriate seed treatment. Producers are advised to choose varieties with the best FHB tolerance whenever possible and always use best management practices to slow the spread of this disease.

• Seed used in the Alberta Regional Variety Testing program comes with a “fusarium-free” certificate, and trials are inspected for FHB during the growing season.

Agronomic practices used in small plot trialsSmall plot trials are conducted using the following best agronomic practices:• N, P, K and S fertilizer rates are based on soil test

results for 1.25x the area average yield goal of the past 4 years, as reported in the AFSC Yield Alberta publication.

• All wheat, barley and oat seed is treated with Cruiser Maxx Vibrance Cereals. Triticale is treated with Dividend XL RTA. Flax seed is not treated.

• Seeding rates are adjusted for TKW and germination to reach the following target plant populations listed in Table 1.0.

• Foliar fungicides are not applied to the trials, which allows for testing genetic differences between cultivars for their disease resistance. The application of a foliar fungicide under conditions for disease development could significantly increase yields on some cultivars.

2018 canola variety informationCanola Performance Trials (CPT) have been conducted since 2011 to provide variety evaluation for Western Canadian canola growers. The trials were designed to provide the following:

• relevant, unbiased and timely performance data including large scale plots that reflect actual production practices

• comparative data on leading varieties and newly introduced varieties from participating companies

• detailed reporting on agronomic characteristics such as yield, height, lodging, maturity and economic performance, and site specific performance variables including weather, soil type, crop nutrition, seeding and harvest management

The CPT trials are conducted under the guidance of a governance committee that approves participating varieties, protocol design, data collection, analyses, reports and finance management.

The 2018 CPT program was funded by the Alberta Canola Producers Commission, SaskCanola and the Manitoba Canola Growers Association, with contributions from the BC Grain Producers Association. The Canola Council of Canada delivers the program on their behalf.

More about the CPT program and the CPT Technical and Governance Committee in the Canola Variety Selection Guide can be found at https://www.canolaperformancetrials.ca

Canola trial summariesThe CPT summaries provided here are based on successful trials that did not show confounding factors during field inspections.

The combination of drought and other factors resulted in only 18 successful small plot trials in 2018. The small trial sites were regionally distributed based on seeded acres in Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta. There were 42 locations of large scale trial data accepted in 2018.

Small plot trials included a limited selection of popular and newly introduced varieties. The small plot system ensures the following:

• all varieties are treated with appropriate commercially associated herbicides and seed treatments

• an independent third-party representative inspected all trials

• harvest occurred at the most appropriate time to minimize harvest losses due to maturity differences

• a separate small scale straight cut test is also included to compare varieties marketed for straight cutting

Field scale comparisons add extra perspective for assessing variety performance. Starting in 2015, large scale comparisons were added, and they must meet standard protocols.

In 2018, there were three large scale comparison tests: • shatter tolerant varieties under swath (standard)• straight cut harvest systems• comparison of selected clubroot resistant varieties

(but not on clubroot infested land)

Canola trial analysisTo ensure quality data and statistical analysis, the CPT technical committee established protocols and developed research plot designs. Performance objectives were established to provide guidelines on timely field operations and data collection. All small plot sites were inspected to verify that guidelines were followed for fair comparisons among the varieties tested.

Audits of field scale projects give growers the confidence that the protocol was conducted in a scientifically sound manner and that comparisons are appropriate. Qualified professionals with extensive background in conducting field scale research trials performed the audits.

Small yield differences can easily be due to random variation and, thus, are unlikely to be real effects of varieties. When comparing average zone yields for varieties in the small plot data, the least significant difference (LSD) ranged from 6 to 13 per cent in 2018. This number is based on a confidence level that similar differences would occur by chance less than 5 per cent of the time.

Comparisons among many varieties or between different herbicide systems are valid, but the LSD would be larger. More importantly, comparisons between varieties within the same herbicide system reveal only genetic differences, whereas variety comparisons from different herbicide systems involve the net effect of both genetic and herbicide effects (weed control + crop tolerance).

24

When comparing variety yields in the field scale summaries, an asterisk (*) indicate yields that are statistically different (5 % level) using the paired t-test.

As results from more sites are combined, the statistical power to determine if small differences are not due to chance often improves quickly up to 15 to 20 sites, and then marginally after that. This outcome means that smaller differences are more relevant when all sites are averaged, rather than just a few selected sites. Also, the predictability that the average yield differences would likely occur in other fields in future years increases when there are a high number of individual sites for comparing two varieties.

Where are CPT results available?Averages from zones with less than three sites of data are not shown in this publication due to limited reliability. Results including data from individual locations and previous years are available through an online interactive tool at www.canolaperformancetrials.ca

The interactive tool allows growers to explore many agronomic factors and to search for trial data in specific geographic areas near their farming operations. Details on management, operations and environmental data for each individual site will be reported online.

The online tool has an economic calculator that includes the costs associated with growing the selected variety to assist growers in determining potential profitability.

Brassica rapa (Polish Canola) and Canola Quality Brassica juncea: no varieties were tested under PCT in 2012 through 2018.
