Abstract
Journey hard red spring wheat is adapted to the wheat-growing regions of the Canadian prairies. Evaluation occurred in Central Bread Wheat Cooperative registration tests in 1997, 1999 and 2000 relative to Neepawa, Roblin, AC Majestic, McKenzie and AC Barrie. Journey displayed high grain yield, mid- to late - season maturity, reduced height, very strong straw, high test weight, high protein content and improved pre-harvest sprouting resistance. It exhibited resistance to the prevalent races of stem rust, leaf rust and common bunt, and intermediate resistance to loose smut and Fusarium head blight. Journey is eligible for all grades of Canada Western Red Spring (CWRS) wheat. Key words: Triticum aestivum L., cultivar description, red spring wheat, strong straw, grain protein, test weight, preharvest sprouting resistance, disease resistance
