Highlights
AAC Oravena is a white-hulled oat (Avena sativa L.) cultivar developed under organic management by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, Cereal Research Centre (AAFC-CRC), Winnipeg, MB in collaboration with the University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, MB
Lines grown at this location were exposed to natural disease infections of oat crown rust, oat stem rust, and barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV), as well as competitive pressure from various weeds
Selections were made amongst the lines in the preliminary yield trial and compared to the check cultivars based on superior yield, disease resistance, and milling quality traits as measured by Near Infrared Reflectance Spectrometry (NIRS) on whole meal
Summary
Cultivar CDC Dancer AC Morgan Leggett OT8003 LSDd (P= 0.05) Significance Station-years. ATests grown near Carman and Glenlea, MB (2010, 2012), Oxbow SK (2010), Roblin MB (2012), bTests grown at Edmonton AB (2010, 2012), Fort Vermilion and Lamont AB (2012) and Dawson Creek BC (2012) cTests grown near Kernen (2012) and Swift Current (2012) SK.
