Predicting soybean phenology in Manitoba
Phenological development in soybean can be delayed when it is grown under long photoperiods (>14 hours) Maturity group (MG) classifications, often not established in Manitoba (MB), are usually based on time (days) or crop heat units (CHU) to maturity, and do not always accurately predict…Read More
The genetics of early maturity in Canadian spring wheat
Read MoreThe integration of spring wheat genetics and agronomics to mitigate risks associated with early plantings into cold soils
Previous studies have indicated that crosses between spring and winter wheat cultivars can result in spring growth habit cultivars with cold tolerance similar to winter wheats (Larsen 2012) Agronomic studies focusing on seeding date tend to indicate a yield advantage to early seeding of spring…Read More
