'ND901CL Plus' Hard Red Spring Wheat (RFP-161)

Description

'ND901CL Plus' was developed by the Hard Red Spring Wheat Breeding Program at North Dakota State University and released by the North Dakota Agricultural Experiment Station (NDAES) in the spring of 2010. This is the first Clearfield herbicide-resistant cultivar released by the experiment station. 'ND901CL Plus' was selected from the first HRSW generation with the Clearfield resistance based on a two-gene system. Its parentage includes 'Grandin' and 'Kulm', which are two HRSW released by NDAES. The sources of Clearfield resistance genes were from genotypes provided by the BASF Corp.

'ND901CL Plus' is recommended primarily for rain-fed wheat production in western North Dakota and counties in adjacent states where annual grasses, such as wild oats, brome and broadleaf weeds, are common. 'ND901CL Plus' is a semidwarf similar to 'Glenn'. Its maturity date is medium-early, which is similar to 'Parshall' and 'Steele-ND'. It also has good straw strength. The disease package is somewhat weak; therefore, 'ND901CL Plus' is recommended for western North Dakota, where disease resistance generally is not as critical. 'ND901CL Plus' has very good milling and baking properties in general, with a slightly low mixing time, but similar or better to that of 'Reeder'. It is very high in protein similar to 'Dapps' and has a test weight close to that of 'Alsen'.

This variety is protected by the Plant Variety Protection Act of 1970 (issued certificate No. 201000315) as amended in 1994 (“PVPA”). The PVPA prohibits, among other things, the propagation, multiplication, production, sale, use or advertisement of this protected variety without either an assignment or license from the NDSU Research Foundation.
