Texas A&amp;M AgriLife\u2019s sister agencies for Research and Extension collaborate by region across the state to conduct extensive wheat variety testing in both research settings and on-farm sites.<\/p>\n<p>Our ongoing Picks criteria include a minimum of three years of data in AgriLife wheat variety trials across numerous annual locations. <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">A \u201cPick\u201d variety means this: given the data these are the varieties we would choose to<\/span> <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">include and emphasize on our farm for wheat grain production<\/span>. Picks are not necessarily the numerical top yielders as important disease resistance traits (leaf or stripe rust, wheat streak mosaic virus), insect tolerance (greenbugs, Hessian fly), or standability can also be important varietal traits that enable a producer to better manage single-variety potential risk using a \u201cmix and match\u201d approach to variety selection to cover basic defensive traits on your farm.<\/p>\n<p>While in some years we make no changes to our annual Picks, for 2015-2016 we have made some deletions and additions for the four Texas regions where AgriLife wheat variety testing is conducted. Much of the data used in discussion below is published in \u201cTexas Wheat Variety Trial Results\u20142015,\u201d (SCS-2015-06), available at <a href=\"http:\/\/varietytesting.tamu.edu\/wheat\/index.htm\">http:\/\/varietytesting.tamu.edu\/wheat\/index.htm<\/a>. In addition, we also offer an early indication of potential desirable varieties based on two or more years of data, hence our \u2018Watch List\u2019 of promising varieties.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Leaf Rust and Stripe Rust Resistance Ratings in Texas Wheat<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Because these two fungal diseases have a significant potential impact across Texas, particularly when spring production conditions are wet and humid, <strong>we have included current resistance ratings for both<\/strong>. These ratings are noted as R, Resistant; MR, moderately resistant; MS, moderately susceptible; and S, susceptible. For example, a variety designated (R\/MR) is resistant to leaf rust and moderately resistant to stripe rust (e.g., TAM 304). For further information on wheat variety characteristics see pages 5 (hard winter wheat) and 6 (soft winter wheat) in the above document.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Texas High Plains<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>\u2022 Picks<\/strong>\u2014Full Irrigation: TAM 113 (R\/R), TAM 304 (R\/MR), Iba (R\/R), Winterhawk (MS\/MR)<br \/>\n<strong>\u2022 Picks<\/strong>\u2014Limited Irrigation: TAM 111 (S\/S), TAM 112 (S\/S), TAM 113, Iba, T158 (MS\/MR), Winterhawk<br \/>\n<strong>\u2022 Picks<\/strong>\u2014Dryland: TAM 111, TAM 112, TAM 113, Iba, T158, Winterhawk<br \/>\n<strong>\u2022<\/strong> <em>Watch list: Byrd, Denali, Gallagher, SY Monument, WB-Grainfield<\/em><br \/>\n<strong>\u2022<\/strong> <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">A special note about TAM 114<\/span> (formerly tested as TX07A001505): This new variety (good resistance to rusts, good straw strength, desirable milling and baking qualities, moderately resistant to some biotypes of Hessian fly) has in essence has moved off our \u201cWatch List\u201d to Pick, but 2015 planting seed is essentially limited to seed blocks.<\/p>\n<p>Changes to 2015-2016 High Plains Picks:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Deletions<\/span>: We removed <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">TAM 111<\/span> as a full irrigation Pick in part due to trouble this variety experienced with stripe rust in 2015.
