No. MP-11, NSL 528074 MAP) was developed by Washington State University from soft white winter wheat cultivars 'Finch' and 'Eltan'. This population of 155 RILs was developed by single seed descent from the F 2 generation to the F 5 generation. It was genotyped using the 9k iSelect single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) chip, simple sequence repeat markers, and 90k iSelect SNPs. A total of 1258 markers were polymorphic and were mapped to 21 linkage groups that locate to 15 of the wheat chromosomes. The population has been phenotyped to study the genetics of freezing tolerance, snow mold tolerance, stripe rust resistance, straw residue breakdown, and Cephalosporium (Cephalosporium gramineum) stripe resistance. Markers were identified that are closely linked to quantitative trait loci (QTL) that influence these traits, and there is potential for this population to be used to detect QTL for other traits. Because the parents are elite breeding lines developed for the US Pacific Northwest, this population is particularly well-suited to facilitating breeding efforts in this region.

The objective of this research was to develop a SWW wheat cultivar with improved resistance to current stripe rust races and high yield potential across a wider range of climates. 'Jasper' (Reg. No. CV-1124, PI 678442) SWW wheat was developed and released in September 2014 by the Agricultural Research Center of Washington State University. Jasper was tested under the experimental designations 5J061865-11 and WA8169, which were assigned through progressive generations of advancement. Jasper is a semidwarf cultivar adapted to intermediate to high rainfall (>300 mm of average annual precipitation) wheat production regions of Washington, with acceptable yield potential in the lower rainfall areas (<300 mm of average annual precipitation). It has high-temperature, adult-plant resistance to the current races of stripe rust, is intermediate in height, has midseason maturity, and has an average test weight and high grain yield potential. Jasper has end-use quality properties similar or superior to those of 'Stephens', 'Puma', and 'Otto'.

The objective for the development of 'Earl' (Reg. No. CV-1127, PI 680639) was to provide a hard white winter cultivar that meets end-use quality expectations and performs well agronomically. Earl was developed and released in September 2014 by the Agricultural Research Center of Washington State University. It was tested under the experimental designations LasWA8061-75, and WA8184, which were assigned through progressive generations of advancement. Earl is a semidwarf cultivar adapted for the intermediate-to high-rainfall (>400 mm of average annual precipitation), unirrigated wheat production regions of Washington. Earl has high-temperature, adultplant resistance to stripe rust, above-average grain protein concentration, and high grain volume weight with end-use quality properties similar to those of hard red winter wheat cultivars 'Bauermeister', 'Finley', and 'Whetstone'.

No. CV-1017, PI 634716) was released in 2005 by the Agricultural Research Center of Washington State University (WSU) in cooperation with the USDA-ARS. MDM is a semidwarf cultivar adapted to the low-to inter mediate-rainfall (<460 mm average annual precipitation) HWW-growing regions of Washington. It was released for its high grain yield, disease resistance, and excellent quality attributes. MDM is named in honor of Michael D. Moore (deceased), wheat producer from Kahlotus, WA. Moore was a strong supporter of WSU wheat research and contributed for many years toward the improvement of winter wheat for the low rainfall areas of Washington. Stephen Jones selected MDM ('Klasic' [PI 486139]/5*'Eltan' [PI 536994]) in the BC 4 F 6. Klasic is a hard white spring cultivar developed by Northrup King Company, and Eltan (Peterson et al., 1991) is a soft white winter (SWW) cultivar broadly adapted to the Pacifi c Northwest. The original cross and subsequent backcrosses were made in the WSU Wheat Plant Growth Center. Seed from each BC 4 F 1 plant was used to establish a BC 4 F 2 fi eld plot (355 total) at Pullman, WA, in 1998. The BC 4 F 3 seed was advanced without selection in 1999. On the basis of general adaptation, maturity, resistance to stripe rust (caused by Puccinia striiformis Westend. f. sp. tritici), grain yield, test weight, and milling and baking quality, 73 lines were selected in 2000 and planted as BC 4 F 4 replicated plots in two advanced fi eld nurseries in eastern Washington. Using similar selection criteria, 12 BC 4 F 5 lines were planted in fi ve replicated nurseries across

(Reg. No. CV-1002, PI 634717) was released in 2005 by the Agricultural Research Center of Washington State University (WSU) in cooperation with the USDA-ARS. Bauermeister is a semidwarf cultivar adapted to the low-to intermediate-rainfall (, 460 mm average annual precipitation) HRW wheat growing regions of Washington State. It was released for its high grain yield, disease resistance, and excellent quality attributes. Bauermeister is named in honor of Dale and Dan Bauermeister, wheat producers from Connell, WA. The Bauermeisters are strong supporters of WSU wheat research and have cooperated for many years toward the improvement of winter wheat for the low rainfall areas of Washington. Stephen Jones selected Bauermeister ['TAM200' (PI 578255)/3*'Eltan' (PI 536994)] in the BC 2 F 6. TAM200 (Worrall et al., 1995) is a HRW cultivar and Eltan (Peterson et al., 1991) is a soft white winter (SWW) cultivar broadly adapted to the Pacific Northwest. The original cross and subsequent backcrosses were made in the WSU Wheat Plant Growth Center. Seed from each BC 2 F 1 plant was used to establish a BC 2 F 2 field plot (84 total) at Pullman, WA in 1998. Following selection for general adaptation and seed color, 42 BC 2 F 3 plots were planted. Based on general adaptation, seed color, maturity, resistance to stripe rust (caused by Puccinia striiformis Westend. f. sp. tritici.), grain yield, test weight, and milling and baking quality, 13 lines were selected and planted as BC 2 F 4 replicated plots in two advanced field nurseries in eastern Washington. Using similar selection criteria, 11 BC 2 F 5 lines were planted in five replicated nurseries across eastern Washington in 2001, of which two were advanced in 2002 and tested at 16 eastern Washington locations as BC 2 F 6 breeding lines. In addition, approximately 100 single spikes from each of the two lines were planted as head rows at Pullman, WA for selection of rows that were homozygous for seed color and hardness. One line (J981107) emerged from the field nurseries as superior in grain yield and test weight. All of its 100 BC 2 F 6 head rows were harvested and seed hardness (AACC, 2003, Method 55-31) was determined from a subsample for each head row. BC 2 F 7 seed from the 32 head rows of J981107 that were hard (. 70 single kernel hardness) and red were then bulked and planted in replicated commercial field trials as WA007939. In 2003, approximately 2000 BC 2 F 7:8 spikes were selected from a pure seed increase of WA007939 at Pullman, WA and grown as individual head rows, under irrigation, at Othello, WA. Those head rows were evaluated and selected for phenotypic uniformity, maturity, and resistance to disease. Non-conforming rows (, 10%) were removed before harvest and breeder seed of Bauermeister was produced from the bulked BC 2 F 7:9 seed. Bauermeister is an intermediate height, semi-dwarf HRW cultivar that is phenotypically and agronomically very similar to Eltan for every trait other than its red seed color and hardness. It has an awned, lax spike with long midwide, white glumes. The kernels are elliptical, red, hard, and midlong, with a mid-wide, mid-deep crease and a mid-sized medium length brush. The germ is mid-wide. Bauermeister exhibits resistance to snow mold (caused by Typhula idahoensis Rems and T. ishikariensis Imai.) and stripe rust similar to Eltan. Bauermeister was tested for stripe rust in field nurseries with natural infection across Washington State from 2002 to 2004. Stripe rust was well developed in all locations in each of the 3 yr. In most tests, Bauermeister had infection types (ITs) from 0 (no symptom) to 5 (moderately resistant). In a few tests it had IT 8 (moderately susceptible) or

(Reg. no. CV-977, PI 634715) was developed by the Agricultural Research Center of Washington State University (WSU) in cooperation with the USDA-ARS. Masami was jointly released by Washington and Idaho Agricultural Experiment Stations and the USDA-ARS in 2004. Masami is targeted for the low to intermediate rainfall (,460 mm average annual precipitation) wheat production regions of Washington State. It was released for its excellent grain yield, cold hardiness, end-use quality and disease resistance. Masami is named in honor of Masami ''Dick'' Nagamitsu, a retired WSU wheat researcher. Masami (WA007916, VO95065, V89046) is an F 3:6 selection from the cross 'MacVicar' (PI 552427)/PI 561031 generated by C. J. Peterson Jr. in 1989. The pedigree of MacVicar is 'Yamhill' (CItr 14563)/'McDermid' (CItr 14565)//T. spelta L. var.'Alba' (PI 191303)/3/'Suwon 92' (PI 157603)/'Roedel' (CItr 15175)/4/ NB 6813/'Hyslop' (CItr 14564)//'Backa' (PI 323647) and the pedigree of PI 561031 is VPM/'Moisson 951'//2* 'Hill81' (CItr 17954). A modified pedigree-bulk breeding method was used to advance early generations. Bulked seed from F 1 plants was used to establish an F 2 field plot. Approximately 150 spikes were randomly harvested from individual F 2 plants and then planted to establish F 3 hill plots, each containing grain from a single F 2 spike. The F 3 hill plots were evaluated for general adaptation, maturity, resistance to stripe rust (caused by Puccinia striiformis Westend. f. sp. tritici) and eyespot foot rot [caused by Tapesia yallundae Wallwork and Spooner 5 Pseudocercosporella herpotrichoides (Fron.) Deighton] in naturally infected fields using visual disease assessment. Approximately 50 F 3 spikes were randomly harvested from selected hill plots and planted to establish F 4 head rows. Seed from all the plants in each selected F 3:4 row was used to establish an F 3:5 field plot. Following selection for general adaptation, maturity, uniformity, and disease resistance, F 3:6 seed was bulk harvested and assessed for grain yield, test weight, and end-use quality. F 1 to F 5 progeny were advanced in field nurseries at Pullman, WA, while subsequent generations were advanced in replicated yield trials throughout Washington State. Breeder seed of Masami was produced in 2004 from 2000 F 3:14 heads selected from a pure seed increase at Pullman, WA, and planted in head rows under irrigation at Othello, WA. Masami is an intermediate height, semidwarf cultivar. Spikes are fusiform and middense, with white awns and white glumes that are of medium length and width, wanting shoulders and acuminate beaks. Kernels are ovate, white, soft, and midlong. Seed of Masami has a midsize germ with a narrow, middeep crease, rounded cheeks with a midsize, short brush. Masami has intermediate juvenile plant growth habit, and flag leaves are erect and not twisted. Masami has eyespot and stripe rust resistance similar to 'Madsen' (PI 511673) (Allan et al., 1989). It showed resistance to races PST-78, 45, and 43 of P. striiformis f. sp. tritici in 2003 greenhouse seedling tests performed under low-temperature cycle (diurnal temperature gradually changing from 48C at 0200 h to 208C at 1400 h) (Masami was rated 1 on the 1-9 stripe rust severity scale while susceptible check 'NuGaines' [CItr 13968] [Vogel and Peterson, 1974] was rated as 8). In greenhouse adult plant tests performed under high temperature cycle (diurnal temperature gradually changing from 108C at 0200 h to 358C at 1400 h), Masami was rated as 20% infection with a severity of 4 while susceptible check NuGaines was rated as 80% infection with a severity of 8. In field tests conducted under natural stripe rust infections at Mt. Vernon and Pullman, WA, from 1999 to 2003, Masami had lower infection types and severity in later growth stages than early stages, indicating high

This study used seven EPs to evaluate EPB in its ability to increase the performance of agronomic, quality, and disease resistance traits and adaptability across different precipitation zones. The populations were tested in field trials in three diverse locations over 2 years. Least significant differences showed the EPs performance was dependent on their pedigree and were statistically similar and even out-performed some of their respective parents in regards to grain yield, grain protein concentration, and disease resistance. Stability models including Eberhart and Russel’s deviation from Regressio...

BC 2 F 7 seed from the 32 head rows of J981107 that were hard (. 70 single kernel hardness) and red were then bulked and planted in replicated commercial field trials as WA007939. In 2003, approximately 2000 BC 2 F 7:8 spikes were selected from a pure seed increase of WA007939 at Pullman, WA and grown as individual head rows, under irrigation, at Othello, WA. Those head rows were evaluated and selected for phenotypic uniformity, maturity, and resistance to disease. Non-conforming rows (, 10%) were removed before harvest and breeder seed of Bauermeister was produced from the bulked BC 2 F 7:9 seed. Bauermeister is an intermediate height, semi-dwarf HRW cultivar that is phenotypically and agronomically very similar to Eltan for every trait other than its red seed color and hardness. It has an awned, lax spike with long midwide, white glumes. The kernels are elliptical, red, hard, and midlong, with a mid-wide, mid-deep crease and a mid-sized medium length brush. The germ is mid-wide. Bauermeister exhibits resistance to snow mold (caused by Typhula idahoensis Rems and T. ishikariensis Imai.) and stripe rust similar to Eltan. Bauermeister was tested for stripe rust in field nurseries with natural infection across Washington State from 2002 to 2004. Stripe rust was well developed in all locations in each of the 3 yr. In most tests, Bauermeister had infection types (ITs) from 0 (no symptom) to 5 (moderately resistant). In a few tests it had IT 8 (moderately susceptible) or

Registration of 'Masami' Wheat 'Masami' soft white winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) (Reg. no. ... more Registration of 'Masami' Wheat 'Masami' soft white winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) (Reg. no. CV-977, PI 634715) was developed by the Agricultural Research Center of Washington State University (WSU) in cooperation with the USDA-ARS. Masami was jointly released by Washington and Idaho Agricultural Experiment Stations and the USDA-ARS in 2004. Masami is targeted for the low to intermediate rainfall (,460 mm average annual precipitation) wheat production regions of Washington State. It was released for its excellent grain yield, cold hardiness, end-use quality and disease resistance. Masami is named in honor of Masami ''Dick'' Nagamitsu, a retired WSU wheat researcher. Masami (WA007916, VO95065, V89046) is an F 3:6 selection from the cross 'MacVicar' (PI 552427)/PI 561031 generated by C. J. Peterson Jr. in 1989. The pedigree of MacVicar is 'Yamhill' (CItr 14563)/'McDermid' (CItr 14565)//T. spelta L. var.'Alba' (PI 191303)/3/'Suwon 92' (PI 157603)/'Roedel' (CItr 15175)/4/ NB 6813/'Hyslop' (CItr 14564)//'Backa' (PI 323647) and the pedigree of PI 561031 is VPM/'Moisson 951'//2* 'Hill81' (CItr 17954). A modified pedigree-bulk breeding method was used to advance early generations. Bulked seed from F 1 plants was used to establish an F 2 field plot. Approximately 150 spikes were randomly harvested from individual F 2 plants and then planted to establish F 3 hill plots, each containing grain from a single F 2 spike. The F 3 hill plots were evaluated for general adaptation, maturity, resistance to stripe rust (caused by Puccinia striiformis Westend. f. sp. tritici) and eyespot foot rot [caused by Tapesia yallundae Wallwork and Spooner 5 Pseudocercosporella herpotrichoides (Fron.) Deighton] in naturally infected fields using visual disease assessment. Approximately 50 F 3 spikes were randomly harvested from selected hill plots and planted to establish F 4 head rows. Seed from all the plants in each selected F 3:4 row was used to establish an F 3:5 field plot. Following selection for general adaptation, maturity, uniformity, and disease resistance, F 3:6 seed was bulk harvested and assessed for grain yield, test weight, and end-use quality. F 1 to F 5 progeny were advanced in field nurseries at Pullman, WA, while subsequent generations were advanced in replicated yield trials throughout Washington State. Breeder seed of Masami was produced in 2004 from 2000 F 3:14 heads selected from a pure seed increase at Pullman, WA, and planted in head rows under irrigation at Othello, WA. Masami is an intermediate height, semidwarf cultivar. Spikes are fusiform and middense, with white awns and white glumes that are of medium length and width, wanting shoulders and acuminate beaks. Kernels are ovate, white, soft, and midlong. Seed of Masami has a midsize germ with a narrow, middeep crease, rounded cheeks with a midsize, short brush. Masami has intermediate juvenile plant growth habit, and flag leaves are erect and not twisted. Masami has eyespot and stripe rust resistance similar to 'Madsen' (PI 511673) (Allan et al., 1989). It showed resistance to races PST-78, 45, and 43 of P. striiformis f. sp. tritici in 2003 greenhouse seedling tests performed under low-temperature cycle (diurnal temperature gradually changing from 48C at 0200 h to 208C at 1400 h) (Masami was rated 1 on the 1-9 stripe rust severity scale while susceptible check 'NuGaines' [CItr 13968] [Vogel and Peterson, 1974] was rated as 8). In greenhouse adult plant tests performed under high temperature cycle (diurnal temperature gradually changing from 108C at 0200 h to 358C at 1400 h), Masami was rated as 20% infection with a severity of 4 while susceptible check NuGaines was rated as 80% infection with a severity of 8. In field tests conducted under natural stripe rust infections at Mt. Vernon and Pullman, WA, from 1999 to 2003, Masami had lower infection types and severity in later growth stages than early stages, indicating high

This study used seven EPs to evaluate EPB in its ability to increase the performance of agronomic, quality, and disease resistance traits and adaptability across different precipitation zones. The populations were tested in field trials in three diverse locations over 2 years. Least significant differences showed the EPs performance was dependent on their pedigree and were statistically similar and even out-performed some of their respective parents in regards to grain yield, grain protein concentration, and disease resistance. Stability models including Eberhart and Russel’s deviation from Regressio...
