A SAD DAY FOR DEMOCRACY On 8th day of fast, 61 people doing a Moun Vrat on Ekadashi to #SaveLadakh #SaveHimalayas were forcibly detained. We were told BNSS 163 (144) prohibitory orders were permanently applied in entire New Delhi district. This I think is against the spirit of

Can’t wait to see our book in print. With 22 comprehensive chapters (419 pp), the book will be very useful to those who aspire to work on wheat rusts & genetics of disease resistance. The book cover pic is the photo that I took in 2013 from a wheat field near Stornoway, SK.

Our new CPS variety HY2161 is now registered as ‘UA Brynn’. With straw strength & height similar to Penhold; yield 114% of Penhold, 115% of Brandon, 106% of Faller + very good disease package, UA Brynn is a perfect replacement for Penhold, & some popular CNHR varieties!

V. Good natural stripe rust infection in our BC nursery & we spread the corn spawn inoculum. Hoping for good data on breeding lines from UAlberta Cereal Breeding Lab (CBL) Crop Development Centre - USask AAFC Canada. This service nursery is integral for rust data for diff breeding programs. Funded by: Sask Wheat NSERC / CRSNG

Great rust expression in our BC nursery. BC, without question, is the best place for stripe rust screening. Our Sask Wheat NSERC / CRSNG funded BC nursery is tremendously helping us build resistance, develop resistant varieties, & train HQPs! #PublicWheatBreeding #Genetics_at_work

RDAR staff had the opportunity to attend the inaugural Cereal Breeding Lab (CBL) Wheat Field Day. The day showcased recently released varieties like UABrynn and other advanced lines in the breeding pipeline at U of A. #AlbertaAg #Wheat #UofA
