Abstract
Abstract‘MN‐Torgy’ (Reg. no. CV‐1203, PI 698205) hard red spring wheat (Triticum aestivium L.) was released by the University of Minnesota Agricultural Experiment Station in 2020 because of its high grain yield, disease resistance, and end‐use quality characteristics. MN‐Torgy is a medium‐maturity cultivar with above average plant height despite containing the semi‐dwarfing allele Rht24b. MN‐Torgy has moderate resistance to Fusarium head blight (caused primarily by Fusarium graminearum Schwabe) and good resistance to prevalent races of pathogens causing leaf rust (Puccinia triticina Eriks.) and stem rust (Puccinia graminis Pers.:Pers. f. sp. tritici Eriks. & E. Henn.) and is well adapted to the north‐central United States. MN‐Torgy also has good adult plant resistance to the Ug99 family of stem rust races.
