AC Cora produced significantly more grain yield than Neepawa (6.8%), Columbus (6.5%) and Roblin (7.4%), and slightly more (3.0%) than Katepwa. It matured significantly earlier than Columbus, slightly earlier than Neepawa and Katepwa and slightly later than Roblin. AC Cora was similar in plant height and lodging resistance to Katepwa. AC Cora was eligible for all grades of the Canada Western Red Spring (CWRS) wheat class. Key words: Triticum aestivum L., cultivar description, grain yield, leaf and stem rust
