Winter Grain Varieties for 2001
Data presented in Table 11 were obtained from an on-farm
winter wheat drill strip testing program. In 2000, drill strip
trials were conducted by growers in cooperation with
county agents at 11 sites across the state. Data for 8 sites
are reported; data were not obtained from the other sites
due to stand loss or crop damage due to weather problems.
Pendleton Grain Growers donated some of the seed for the
2000 drill strip testing program and we thank them for this
contribution.

This publication describes winter wheats, barleys, oats,
triticales, and ryes commonly grown in Oregon and provides, when available, yield and agronomic data to aid in
variety selection. The wheat, barley, and triticale data presented in this publication were generated through a statewide variety testing program. This program was initiated
in 1992 with funding and support dollars provided by the
Oregon Agricultural Experiment Station, Oregon Wheat
Commission, Oregon Grains Commission, and Oregon
State University Extension Service. The testing program is
centrally coordinated by Russ Karow and John P.
Bassinette and involves research cooperators at six experiment stations across Oregon. Grower cooperators
make small plot testing possible at three sites. Research
sites, site coordinators, and grower cooperators are listed
below.

common as a means to address disease and environmental
stress problems. Mixtures are more genetically diverse
than single varieties and sometimes offer greater
environmental and disease stress buffering. Club mixtures
for improved stripe rust control are in use. A
Stephens/Daws mix is being used in areas with potential
for winter or spring frost injury. Stephens/Madsen
mixtures are proving useful in situations where the greater
disease resistance of Madsen is beneficial. Mixtures with
Yamhill are being used on wet ground in western Oregon.
Factors to Consider when
Selecting Varieties
Although yield often is the key factor in variety selection,
other characteristics can be important. As you look
through the data tables in this publication, you will discover that yield performance of recently released varieties
often is quite similar Rarely do we find one variety that
consistently outyields all others. This is not surprising
because intensive breeding efforts have improved the yield
potential and stability of grains in general. What this
means to you is that factors other than yield can receive
greater attention as you select varieties to grow on your
farm. Consider the following criteria as you think about
variety selection.
Height and Lodging. Varieties differ in height and lodging
resistance. Though generally correlated, taller varieties are
not necessarily more prone to lodging. Lodging reduces
both grain yield and grain quality. As soil fertility levels
increase, stiffer strawed varieties should be used. You also
should pay careful attention to both timing and rate of fertilizer applications and irrigation, when used.
Disease/Pest/Stress Resistance. Diseases can be a major
problem across the state; however, type of disease and disease pressure vary from location to location and from year
to year. Select a variety with resistance or tolerance to the
diseases and stresses commonly found in your area. Septoria is the major disease of winter wheats grown in western
Oregon. Tolerant varieties such as Madsen and Foote are
available. Stripe rust can be a serious disease of older club
varieties. Newer, resistant varieties such as Temple and
Coda are available. Strawbreaker footrot is a common
disease of both common and club wheats. Most new
varieties have resistance. Cephalosporium stripe can
severely limit yields in parts of eastern Oregon. It is not a
problem in western Oregon. There are differences in
tolerance among varieties but no true resistance. Barley
yellow dwarf virus traditionally has been the most
common disease of winter barley and oats. None of the
currently available, locally adapted varieties has
resistance, but breeding efforts are underway to develop
varieties with resistance. Late planting to avoid virus-laden
aphids and use of newer seed treatment insecticides
(Gaucho and Adage) are the best control strategies. Barley
stripe rust is the newest disease of winter barley. It has
been present at economically significant levels in the
Klamath Basin since 1997. Trace amounts have been
found across the rest of the state. This disease can be
devastating, but its impact has been variable and locationspecific. Resistant varieties, Kold and Strider, are available. None of the currently grown winter wheats or barleys
has resistance to Russian wheat aphid (RWA); however,
oats are immune. Gaucho and Adage insecticide seed
treatment have shown promise as a means of RWA control
in many situations. Smut and bunt diseases are everpresent in Oregon and will cause yield losses if not controlled. Most common seed treatments are effective in
controlling smuts if properly applied. Dividend seed
treatment is especially effective against dwarf (TCK) bunt.
For more information on seed treatments, see the latest
version of the Pacific Northwest Disease Management
Handbook. Use of variety mixtures is becoming more
Maturity. As a group, barleys mature earlier than other
grains; oats mature later. However, differences among
varieties within each grain type can be significant. Earlymaturing varieties may avoid yield and quality reductions
caused by heat or drought in mid-to late summer. Latermaturing varieties may yield more when moderate temperatures and favorable moisture conditions persist into
midsummer; however, stem rust and other diseases favored by warm weather may become a problem. Choose
varieties with a maturity that matches your environment
and cropping needs.
Winter Hardiness. As a group, winter barleys are less
winter-tolerant than wheats; however, some winter wheats
have only marginal hardiness levels (see Table 1). Winter
hardiness is a complex characteristic that is determined not
only by a variety's tolerance of cold, but also by its resistance to other stresses encountered during winter months.
Winter hardiness is not a major limiting factor in winter
wheat and barley production in Oregon. Varieties with
only an average level of winter hardiness perform successfully in most years. Even facultative varieties, which
have a low vernalization requirement and can be planted in
the fall or spring, can be grown in most parts of Oregon. If
winter kill is a problem in your area, select varieties with a
higher winter hardiness rating or consider using a mixed
variety planting. Winter oats are the least hardy of the
winter grains. Production generally is limited to areas
south of the 40th parallel except for regions with Mediterranean-type climates such as western Oregon. Winter survival in these areas generally is good. Winter-hardiness
trials have been conducted at the Moro Experiment Station
in the past. Over the 5-year period 1967-71, survival of
Grey Winter, Walken, and Compact winter oats was 100
percent 3 of the 5 years and approximately 5 percent the
other 2 years. It would appear that currently available
winter oats can tolerate winter minimum temperatures of
10-15°F without snow cover Minimums below this level

•
Seed Stocks. The Washington State Crop Improvement and
are likely to cause damage-unless snow cover is present.
With adequate snow cover, temperatures as low as minus
22°F have not caused damage. Walken oats are less winter-hardy than Grey Winter or Crater.
University of Idaho Foundation Seed Program maintain
seed of commonly grown, publicly released Pacific
Northwest varieties. Ask your local Extension office for
seed stock information or call the Washington program at
509-335-4365. For information on the release status of
newer OSU varieties, see the Seed Stock section of the
OSU Cereals Home Page at http://wwvv.css.orst.edu/
cereals/.
Yield Potential. Yield potential varies from variety to
variety and, for a given variety, from one area to another
and from one year to another. Yield potential is a genetic
trait but is moderated by other factors such as disease and
stress tolerance. To evaluate the yield potential of a variety, review data from test sites with an environment
similar to that in your area. Where possible, compare performance over several years, as a single year's data can be
misleading. Yield data in Tables 6 and 14 are presented as
a percent of trial average. In this format, if the average
yield for a trial is 100 bu/acre and a variety yields 103
bu/acre, then its percent of average yield is 103.

Intended Use. Barley varieties are classified either as feed
•
•
or malting types. Feed types generally are classified as
such because they did not meet malting barley quality requirements, not because they were bred specifically for
feed use. Testing is now being done to specifically identify
lines for their feed value. If raising barley for feed, select
varieties with consistently high test weight. There are no
winter malting barley varieties approved by the American
Malting Barley Association (AMBA) at this time. Oats are
used as animal feed, for cover crop, and as human food.
Some varieties are better suited for specific end uses than
others. Amity is the preferred food-type winter oat due to
its lighter hull color. Amity, Kenoat, and Walken all can
be used as feed oats. Grey Winter generally is grown as a
seed stock to be used for cover crops and forage, but also
has some feed-grain potential. Soft white winter wheats,
both common and club, have occupied 85 percent of Oregon's winter wheat acreage in recent years. Hard red winter wheats rarely are grown. Hard white winter wheats
have yet to be grown. Spring varieties are now available,
and the winter variety Ivory should be available in fall
2001. Triticales have been grown for feed use, and there is
increased interest in them due to the disease resistance and
yield potential expressed by some of the new varieties out
of Poland (see Tables 5, 6). We have mentioned use of
mixtures to address various production problems. Keep in
mind that mixtures cannot be grown for certified seed.

Variety Descriptions
The following descriptions are designed to provide key
information about commonly grown varieties. Material for
these descriptions was drawn from the tables in this publication, Certified Seed Buyers Guides distributed by
Washington State Crop Improvement Association, and
variety release descriptions.
Soft White Common and Club Winter Wheat
Newer varieties:
BRUEHL (WA 7833) is an awned semi-dwarf club
wheat released by Washington State University in 1999. It
has good resistance to snowmold. It generally outyields
Eh= and Sprague in areas where snowmold is a problem.
Height, test weight, heading date, and emergence are similar to Madsen.
Grain Quality. Test weight (bushel weight) is a pricedetermining factor in the marketplace. Choose varieties
with good test weight records. All PNW-released varieties
meet minimum quality standards established by PNW
breeders, but suitability for different end use applications
can vary. For an overview of wheat quality, see the article
"A Wheat Quality Primer" at http://www.css.orst.edu/
cereals/
Wheat/quality/whtqual.htm.
EDWIN (WA7834) is a club wheat released by WSU in
1999 as a Moro replacement. While inferior to other newer
club wheats in terms of yield, it has superior emergence
capability like Moro.
3
Other Varieties:
STEPHENS is a high-yielding, widely adapted soft white
released by OSU in 1977. It occupies approximately
50 percent of the wheat acreage in Oregon. Stephens has
only an average level of winter hardiness and is susceptible to Cephalosporium stripe. In areas where either of
these problems occurs frequently, it is best to grow several
different varieties or variety mixtures to reduce loss risks.
Because of its yield potential, Stephens is often used in
mixtures.
CODA (WA7752) is a high-yielding, awned club wheat
released by Washington State University (WSU) in 1998.
It has good resistance to stripe rust and strawbreaker
footrot. Milling and baking ratings have been very good.
ELTAN is a later maturing, mid-tall, common soft white
wheat released by WSU in 1990. It has excellent winter
hardiness and snow mold tolerance—the original reasons
for its release. Eltan has been found to have superior
noodle-making characteristics, and identity-preserved
production is being used in Washington.
TEMPLE (OR92CL0054) is a high-yielding, stripe rustand footrot-resistant club wheat with above-average milling and baking quality released by OSU in 1998. Temple
has shown above-average yield performance across traditional club wheat producing areas.
FOOTE (OR880172) is an awned, common soft white
released by OSU in 1998. In field testing to date, Foote
has shown good resistance to Septoria leaf blotch
(S. tritici). It is intended to be grown where S. tritici limits
production.
WEATHERFORD (OR898120) is an awned, common,
foot-rot resistant, high-yielding soft white released by
OSU in 1998. Weatherford is slightly later in heading and
taller than Madsen. In field testing to date, Weatherford
has shown resistance to stripe rust, leaf rust, common bunt,
and footrot. It has Cephalosporium stripe resistance similar
to that of Madsen.
HILLER is a stripe rust-resistant, awnletted club wheat
released by WSU, USDA-ARS in 1998. Grain yields are
higher than other club wheats, but test weights are
generally lower than Tres or Rohde. Milling and baking
properties of Hiller are superior to other club wheat cultivars. Hiller does not grade as a club when grown in some
environments.
YAM}ULL is a standard-height, beardless, common soft
white released by OSU in 1969. It has fair winter hardiness and a strong vernalization requirement. Its unique
attribute is the ability to tolerate wet soil conditions better
than any other soft white winter wheat. It is susceptible to
stripe rust and may require fungicide treatment although
rust has not been observed on Yamhill over the past 10
years Yamhill is commonly used in mixtures to be planted
in wet soil situations.
MADSEN (WA7163) is an awned, common soft white
wheat with white and buff chaff. It was released by WSU
in 1988. Madsen has shown good field resistance to stripe,
leaf, and stem rusts; to Cephalosporium stripe; and to
strawbreaker footrot. It has moderate resistance to Septoria. Madsen has been a variety of choice in situations
where disease levels are expected to be high. Weatherford
is replacing some Madsen acreage in Oregon.
Winter Hard Red
ROD (WA7662) is an awned, common soft white wheat
released by WSU in 1992. Rod is similar in height to
Stephens but is weaker strawed and later-maturing. Rod
has good stripe rust and common bunt resistance and
appears to have Cephalosporium stripe tolerance, but is
susceptible to other common wheat diseases. Winter hardiness is slightly better than Stephens. Rod has yielded
well across environments and appears to have a slightly
lower protein level than other varieties. Because of its
yield potential, Rod is often used and has performed well
in mixtures.
BOUNDARY is hard red wheat adapted to high yield production zones released by Idaho AES, USDA-ARS in
1997. Yield under irrigation has been less than Promontory but better than Weston in non-irrigated sites. Test
weight and protein are similar to other hard red wheats.
Straw strength is excellent.
IVORY (OR850513) is a hard white wheat to be released
by OSU in 2001. Ivory is earlier heading and similar in
height to Stephens, but weaker strawed. Winter hardiness
is similar to Gene. Ivory has acceptable quality for several
types of oriental noodles. Foundation seed is scheduled to
be available in fall 2001.
ROHDE (OR855) is a high-yielding, stripe rust-resistant
club wheat released by OSU in 1992. It is awned and has
bronze chaff. It has yielded well across environments.
Rohde is very susceptible to strawbreaker footrot and
should be grown only in fields where strawbreaker has not
been a problem. Temple is replacing Rohde acreage in
Oregon.
Winter Durum Wheat
CONNIE is a winter durum wheat released by OSU in
1997. Connie is a short, early variety with excellent lodging resistance. Yields tend to be significantly less than

bility are poor, but forage yields and quality are good.
Hoody is susceptible to barley stripe rust. Foundation seed
of Hoody is available.
those of soft white winter wheats. Connie has poor winter
hardiness and should not be grown in areas where winter
injury is common. Connie is licensed to Pendleton Flour
Mills and is grown under contract.
KOLD (ORWM8407) is a medium-height, lax-headed,
six-row feed barley released by OSU in 1993. Kold has
resistance to barley stripe rust. Kold is similar to other
commonly grown winter barleys in heading date, lodging
resistance, and test weight.
Winter Triticales
Triticales are hybrids of wheat and rye grown primarily for
feed. Winter, spring, and facultative types are available.
Newer varieties have yield potentials similar to wheat and
test weights nearly as good. Most triticales have a broad
spectrum of disease resistance due to their rye parentage.
Triticales are a feed' rain alternative to corn and barley.
SCIO is a medium-short, mid-season, feed-grain variety
released by OSU in 1981. It is very stiff strawed and well
adapted to the Columbia Basin. Scio is susceptible to barley stripe rust.
ALZO is a tall, high-yielding, late-maturing triticale developed and released in Poland. Resource Seeds and
Wilbur-Ellis Company are local seed distributors. Alzo
yields have typically been better than those of the best
wheats included in the same trial. Alzo has a low vernalization requirement and can be late winter seeded.
STEPTOE is a medium-height, spring feed-grain variety
released by WSU in 1973. Although tolerant of cold and
commonly fall seeded, Steptoe has lower yield potential
and poorer agronomic traits than true winter barleys.
Steptoe is susceptible to barley stripe rust. Unless there is
some compelling reason to grow Steptoe, true winter varieties should be grown.
BOGO is another a tall, high-yielding, early-heading but
later maturing triticale developed and released in Poland.
It too has exhibited exceptional yield potential in trials.
Resource Seeds and Wilbur-Ellis are local seed
distributors. Bogo has a low vernalization requirement and
can be late winter seeded.
STRIDER (ORW6) is a medium-height, rough-awned,
semicompact head, barley stripe rust-resistant, six-row
feed barley released by OSU in 1997. Strider is earlier in
heading and slightly taller than Kold. It has exhibited consistently higher yields across environments.
CELIA (FT91062) is a medium-height, early- to mediummaturing, awned, stiff-strawed triticale released by OSU in
1993. Celia has prostrate early growth and an excellent
disease-resistance profile. Celia is facultative and can be
planted in early spring. Due to its short stature and prostrate early-season growth, Celia is being used as a cover
crop in orchards, hop yards, and row crop fields. Yield
potential of Celia is similar to that of commonly grown
winter wheats and less than that of Bogo or Alzo.

Winter Ryes
cultivar is tall, with adequate lodging resistance. Test
weights have been lighter than those of other varieties.
Amity is the preferred food-type winter oat.
Most rye is sold as "common" seed in Oregon no variety name is specified. Be aware that ryes can have a winter
or spring growth habit. If you are buying common rye
seed, ask for documentation on growth-habit type. Information about rye varieties that have been grown in Oregon
is given below.
CRATER is an improved gray winter oat released by
OSU in 1956. Yield is similar to or better than Grey Winter, with reduced height, improved lodging resistance, and
earlier heading. Test weights have been lower than those
for Grey Winter. Small amounts of foundation are available through Oregon Seed and Grain, Salem, Oregon.
ABRUZZI (ABRUZZF,S) was introduced from Italy by
the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) in
the early 1900s. A number of Abruzzi strains have been
reselected from the original variety and are available as
certified seed. Abruzzis in general have only fair winter
hardiness and are used as fall-seeded forage crops in the
southeastern United States. Wrens Abruzzi was released
by the University of Georgia in 1950. It is an earlymaturing forage type. Seed is available in Georgia. Athens
Abruzzi was released by the University of Georgia in
1972. It is similar in maturity to Wrens, but has shown
superior yield. Athens Abruzzi is available in North
Carolina.
GREY WINTER is a common gray oat released in the
early 1900s. Winter hardiness and yield are good. Grey
Winter is tall but has fair lodging resistance. Feed and
food use are limited. Because breeder seed stocks are not
known, only common seed is available.
WALKEN is a yellow-red winter oat released by the
University of Kentucky in 1970. It is a late-season,
medium-height variety with good lodging resistance.
Yields have been superior to most other winter oat
varieties.
AC RIFLE is a dwarf rye bred in Canada. It yielded
80 percent of Stephens in 2000 trials. It is a short-statured
rye, similar in height to commonly grown wheats. It may
be an attractive alternative to standard-height ryes in cover
crop use and can be used as a bread grain. Seed is available in Canada. If there is local interest, a local seed dealer
should be able to obtain necessary production licenses.
PETKUS was developed in Germany by F. von Lokow in
the late 1800s. It was introduced into the United States in
1900 by the USDA. A tetraploid variant was identified in
the early 1900s and named Tetra Petkus. Tetra Petkus is a
winter-hardy rye that has been grown in Oregon since the
mid-1950s. Certified seed is not available.
WHEELER is a privately bred winter-hardy rye. Contact
Michigan Crop Improvement (517-355-7438) for possible
seed suppliers. Wheeler has allelopathic properties and is
being used by some Oregon growers as a cover crop to
suppress weeds and several soil-borne pests.
Winter Oats (Tables 18,19)
Agronomic characteristics and yield data for commonly
grown winter oats are presented in written and tabular
form below. No trial work has been conducted in recent
years, but winter oats Crater and MK-W0-01 (Kolding)
were included in the 2000 state-wide winter cereals yield
trial. The additional data provided is the most recent or the
only data available for an area.
AMITY is a high-yielding, white-kemeled, late-maturing
oat released by OSU in 1972. Winter hardiness is fair. The

R = resistant, MR = moderately resistant, M = intermediate reaction, MS = moderately susceptible, S = susceptible, VS = very susceptible,
T = tolerant, — = reaction unknown
1 Resistance to Cephalosporium may be due to morphological growth patterns rather than true genetic resistance; hence a tolerance index
is used for rating, 1 = poor, 5 = medium, 10 = excellent
2 Rating is for Septoria tritici. The triticales may be susceptible to Septoria nodorum.
3 Ratings are for Pseudocercosporella footrot.
4 Crew is a multiline variety composed of 10 separate lines, some of which are rust-susceptible.

General Provisions of Plant Variety Protection
(PVP) Law
was used as seed stock, and what guarantee of varietal identity you can expect.
PVP establishes ownership of a plant variety.
What is the pure seed percentage? Pure seed is the percentage of seed in the bag that is of the crop you are buying.
A high percentage of pure seed will give best results. For
example, if a seed lot has a 99 pure seed percentage, then
from a 100-pound bag of seed you can expect 99 pounds of
pure seed of the specified crop.
Seed of a variety licensed under PVP may be sold by variety
name only. 'Variety not stated' or 'brown bag' seed sales are
prohibited.
Seed may be sold only by authorized dealers; i.e. those authorized by the owner of the plant variety.
What is the percentage of other crop seeds? Barley, oats,
vetch, and other crop seed can be found in seed lots. The
percentage of other crop seed tells you how much of the seed
you are buying is of these other crops.
Seed may be sold only as a certified class of seed when the
Title 5 protection option is specified for a PVP variety.
-Under the `PVP Grower Saved Seed Exemption,' growers
may save seed for replanting on their own farm, but may not
sell or give seed to any other party.
What is the inert matter content of this seed? Sand,
stones, dirt, sticks, pods, chaff, ergot bodies, and some broken seeds are all inert matter. These materials do not increase
yield. A very low percentage of inert matter is preferable.
Under the `PVP Research Exemption,' a variety may be used
in crosses with other genetic stocks for research and cultivar
development efforts. The variety may not be used as a parent
of a commercial hybrid cultivar without permission of the
owner. Developing a new variety essentially derived from
the original variety also is prohibited without permission.
That means the variety may not be used as a recurrent parent
in backcrossing, or used as a recipient for mutagenesis or
other molecular genetic modification, without permission of
the owner.
What is the weed seed percentage, and what types of
weeds are present in this seed lot? This percentage indicates the presence of seeds of plants recognized as weeds
in the seed lot. A zero percentage is best; however, in many
states there are allowances for certain types of weeds. There
are also weed seeds that are strictly prohibited from being in
seed. Remember that many weed seeds are very small, and a
low percentage may still mean a high number of weed seeds
are present.
Most PVPed varieties have few authorized dealers, but some
such as OSU's Weatherford carry broad authorization.
Growers will need to check for the specific restrictions on
each variety.
What is the germination percentage of this seed? Percentage of germination is a measure of the number of pure
seeds in a lot that produce normal plants under favorable
conditions. To be valid, the germination test for a seed lot
must have been performed in the past 18 months for seed
grown and sold in Oregon. Federal laws require germination
tests within 5 months of sale for seed shipped across state
lines. For the seed to be properly labeled, the date of test and
germination percentage both must be stated. If you buy seed
with a low germination percentage, you are paying for dead
seed. There are a number of seed labs in Oregon that do seed
testing. Most only accept untreated seed for full seed
analyses but will take treated seed for germination testing.
Seed-borne fungal diseases can result in low germination in
untreated seed. Seed treatment may correct this problem.
Violators may be prosecuted in court.
Questions of Seed Quality
Seed quality includes such factors as varietal identity, freedom from weed and other crop contaminants, and the ability
of the seed to germinate. State and Federal seed laws require
that seed offered for sale be tested and truthfully labeled for
these and other quality factors. When evaluating grain for
seeding or when buying seed from off-farm sources, ask the
following questions:
These are the major questions to ask yourself or to ask a
supplier when buying seed. If you have questions about seed
laws, contact your local county Extension office, your seed
dealer, or the Oregon Department of Agriculture Commodity
Inspection Division, Salem, Oregon.
What is the identity of this seed? Varieties are developed
to improve yields through disease resistance and improved
agronomic characteristics. Seed certification is one method
of ensuring varietal identity. Is the seed certified? Look for
the "blue tag," bulk shipping certificate, or Transfer Certificate for Seed Pending Final Certification (be aware that the
latter means the seed lot is not yet fully certified). These
verify varietal identity. If the seed is uncertified, ask for information on how the seed was produced, what type of seed
Certified seed is your assurance of varietal purity, high germination, uniform quality, and freedom from noxious weeds.
Look for the blue tag or the seed-certification shipping certificate, your guarantee of these qualities. Certified seed does
not cost — it pays.
