CULTIVAR DEVELOPMENT: ACCELERATED INTROGRESSION OF SYNTHETIC HEXAPLOID DERIVED DIVERSITY INTO AN APPLIED HARD WINTER WHEAT BREEDING PROGRAM

Objective

Develop cultivars and germplasm through two breeding pipelines: 1) Existing synthetic hexaploid derivedline nurseries will be forwarded to cultivar release. 2) Existing F4 populations and doubled haploid lines will be moved through the breeding pipeline to advanced yield trials. Germplasm and performance data will be shared through USDA Regional Nurseries.
