Abstract

AAC Penhold, an awned hard red spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivar, yielded significantly more grain than check cultivar 5700PR while maturing 2 d earlier and was 7.5 cm shorter in stature. The seed size was significantly larger than 5700PR and 5701PR, with a test weight significantly heavier than both checks. AAC Penhold expressed resistance to prevalent races of leaf rust and common bunt and moderate resistance to Fusarium head blight and stem rust. AAC Penhold had higher grain and flour protein than the checks and improved Hagberg falling number, amylograph viscosity, and water absorption. AAC Penhold is eligible for grades of the Canada Prairie Spring Red wheat market class.
