Several CWRS varieties were reclassified to the new CNHR wheat class, effective August 1, 2018. The varieties affected are AC Abbey, AC Cora, AC Eatonia, AC Majestic, AC Michael, AC Minto, Alvena, Alikat, CDC Makwa, CDC Osler, Columbus, Conway, Harvest, Kane, Katepwa, Leader, Lillian, McKenzie, Neepawa, Park, Pasqua, Pembina, Thatcher, Unity VB and 5603HR. * Effective August 1, 2021 the Canadian Grain Commission will designate AAC Redwater and Muchmore to the CNHR wheat class. For more information see the Canadian Grain Commission website www.grainscanada.gc.ca. The long term average maturity for Carberry is 108 days and rated as Late (L). Fusarium Head Blight (FHB) infection is highly influenced by the environment and heading date. Under high levels of FHB all varieties will sustain damage. Moderately Resistant (MR) and Resistant (R) ratings for FHB do not equate to immunity. Varieties rated Intermediate (I) to Susceptible (S) for loose smut or bunt should be treated with a systemic seed treatment to reduce the potential for infection. CDC Adamant VB, CDC Landmark VB and CDC Hughes VB have a solid stem that confers resistance to the wheat stem sawfly. 5604HR CL, 5605HR CL, CDC Abound, CDC Imagine, CDC Thrive and WR589 CL are tolerant to the CLEARFIELD® herbicides Adrenalin SC and Altitude FX. VB - designates a varietal blend to preserve the Sm1 orange wheat blossom midge tolerance gene. New CWRS registrations: AAC Magnet (BW1045), AAC LeRoy (BW1049), AAC Starbuck (BW5011), AAC Warman (BW1025), AAC Wheatland (BW5013), Parata (PT772), SY Chert (BW5005) and SY Obsidian (BW5007). Insufficient data to describe: AAC Magnet, AAC LeRoy, AAC Starbuck, AAC Warman, AAC Wheatland, BW1041, PT596, PT782 and PT785.
