UI Gold | PVP application filed
UI Gold, a hard white spring wheat, was developed by 果冻传媒麻豆社’s Aberdeen Wheat Breeding program. Its combination of high yield and excellent bread baking quality sets this variety apart from other hard white spring wheat varieties.
UI Gold is adapted for irrigated, high rainfall and dryland areas in southern Idaho, and suitable for irrigated production having a strong stem for good standability and medium height (36 inches). It has high yield potential consistently meeting or exceeding yield of top yielding hard wheats. The grain protein content of UI Gold averages 12.5-13%. Test weight averaged 68.25 lbs./ac in both irrigated and dryland environments. UI Gold has maintained its yield potential and baking quality in dryland and rainfed environments.
UI Gold carries High Temperature Adult Plant resistance to these races of stripe rust: PSTv-14, PSTv-37 and PTSv-40 based on greenhouse tests. Under field conditions, UI Gold scored resistant to moderately resistant to Strip Rust, but does not carry resistance or tolerance to Fusarium Head Blight.
UI Gold is available for non-exclusive licensing.

VI Presto CL+ | PVP certificate number 202100361
VI Presto CL+ is a common soft white winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) with 2 genes for tolerance to Imidazolinone (Beyond®) herbicide. VI Presto CL+’s kernels are white, soft and ovate, with rounded cheek, and the brush length is medium. It is adapted to lower rainfall areas of SE Washington and Oregon, including drier areas of the Palouse. VI Presto CL+ has shown higher yield potential, higher test weight, and improved stripe rust resistance as compared with UI Magic CL+. It has taller plant height and is photoperiod insensitive, suggesting it is better for later, dryland seedings. It has shown MS/MR response to cephalosporium stripe, like the variety Madsen. End-use quality is like UI Magic CL+ in terms of break flour yield and cookie diameter.
