1 Variety Perspectives from the Southern Great Plains Michael J. Stamm Department of Agronomy Kansas State University

2 Winter Canola Acres in the Southern Great Plains (2014/15 estimated; Sources: NASS, FSA) 400,000 Planted Acres 300, , , / / / / / / /15 Year Oklahoma Kansas Other (CO & TX) The U.S. Canola Association set a goal of 1.5 million acres in the southern Great Plains by 2018.

5 Breeding for Adaptability Use diverse germplasm to increase yield potential and incorporate traits of interest Oil quantity and quality Winter survival Disease tolerance Herbicide resistance Sulfonylurea residuals Glyphosate Relative maturity Dual purpose forage and grain Griffin

6 Winter Survival Head-to-head means for winter survival (1-5) across 5 Great Plains sites, 2013/14. KSR Mercedes 2.5 Wichita 2.9 Visby 2.9 HyCLASS115W 3.1 HyCLASS125W 3.2 Edimax CL 3.3 P-value LSD (0.05) 0.5

7 Blackleg Tolerance Results from a disease screening nursery comparing commercial varieties with K-State experimental lines in Oklahoma. Entry Company/ University Severity(0-5) KSUR21 K-State Sitro Rubisco W94 Pioneer HyCLASS115W Croplan DKW46-15 DeKalb Sumner K-State LSD (0.05) Internal stem decay on a 0 to 5 scale where 0=no disease, 1=25% decay, 2=50% decay, 3=75% decay, 4=100% decay, 5=dead plant. KSUR21 Competitor Green stubble indicates minimal blackleg infection

8 Yield (lb/a) of Roundup Ready cultivars from the 2012/13 OSU Winter Canola Performance Trials. Fort Cobb Helena Lahoma Average KSR4649S (HyCLASS225W) KSR4650 (HyCLASS220W) KSR07352S (DKW45-25) KSR W DKW HyCLASS115W Mean CV LSD (0.05) Mean yield a reflection of all entries in the trial.

9 K-State Varieties KSR4649S (2014) HyCLASS225W Roundup Ready and tolerant to sulfonylurea herbicide soil residual License pending with Croplan by WinField KSR4650 (2014) HyCLASS220W Roundup Ready License pending with Croplan by WinField KSR07352S (2013) DKW st K-State Roundup Ready variety Also tolerant to sulfonylurea herbicide soil residual KSR07363 (2013) Roundup Ready Licensed to Monsanto Griffin (2011) 1 st dual-purpose forage and grain variety developed for the Great Plains Riley (2010) 1 st variety released by K-State possessing 40% oil Kiowa (2008) Sumner (2003) 1 st winter canola variety tolerant to sulfonylurea herbicide soil residual Abilene (2002) Wichita (1999) Standard winter canola cultivars in the USA Plainsman (1998)

10 National Winter Canola Variety Trial The Objectives of the NWCVT are to: Evaluate experimental varieties and hybrids in a wide range of environments Determine where commercial varieties and hybrids are best adapted Increase the national visibility of winter canola Provide a variety selection tool and source of information for canola producers, breeders, agronomists, and end-users NWCVT 52 locations in 20 states 11 breeding programs contributing 54 entries 23 commercial cultivars 33 hybrids, 21 open-pollinated varieties 14 Roundup Ready, 3 Clearfield 6 semi-dwarf

16 Winter Canola Variety Testing K-State coordinates an USDA-NIFA canola research award and the NWCVT. The map below identifies participating locations in the growing season. University research station and USDA-NIFA sub-contractor NWCVT locations The NWCVT includes 54 commercial and experimental winter canola varieties from public and private entities. The NWCVT increases the visibility of winter canola across the USA.
