QUEENSLAND WHEAT VARIETIES 2018 3
IntroductionNational Variety Trials seek to collect the most relevant varieties for each region and test them alongside elite lines from breeding programs. For all the information on the released varieties in the NVT trials in Queensland visit the website (www.nvtonline.com.au).
2017 season Early rainfall was below average: January and February provided up to 50 millimetres across Queensland, until Cyclone Debbie arrived in late March. General rain from Cyclone Debbie provided much needed soil moisture and early planting opportunities in Central Queensland. Regrettably, follow-up rain in most regions was lacking and wheat planting across Queensland was sporadic and confined to early opportunities.
With very little rain during the growing season wheat crops did not progress particularly well. Moisture stress and some frost events contributed to low yields across Queensland. The poor season was compounded by large rainfall events in October, which caused downgrading of wheat quality in some instances.
QUEENSLAND WHEAT VARIETIES 2018
Disease characteristics2017 was a year of low leaf diseases, increased root-lesion nematode (Pratylenchus thornei and P. neglectus) damage, and, depending on sowing time, low crown rot. In general across the state, average to below-average rainfall was received in June, and below-average rainfall in July, August and September. Above-average rainfall was received in early and mid-October, with November back to average to below-average rainfall. The low incidence of leaf diseases in 2017 was because of the lack of rain periods required for infection prior to flowering. The reduced plant-available water exacerbated root-lesion nematode damage across the state but despite low rainfall being associated with increased losses from crown rot in early maturing crops, the October rain helped to reduce the impact of crown rot on main season crops. However, this does not mean growers can be complacent in 2018. Rust inoculum travels hundreds of kilometres, so it is always present, root-lesion nematodes reduce yields of intolerant wheat varieties in most years and are present on average in 77% of northern grain region paddocks and both crown rot and yellow spot inoculum are widespread in soils and stubble. Impacts of these diseases in 2018 are dependent on the rainfall during the growing season, so if a disease has been an issue in the past, choose cultivars that have good levels of resistance.
Frost damage can be minimised by planting varieties within the range of dates recommended (Table 1). This table was compiled from current data.
Planting categoriesE = Early
Early planted crops face the risk of frost damage from pre-flowering to grain-fill. Therefore, plant early in areas of low frost risk, such as higher slopes, and reduce the risk of frost damage by planting more than one variety and by varying planting times.
In central Queensland, warm weather encourages rapid early plant development. Where possible, plant shallow into moisture and use press-wheels to aid establishment. Increase the plant population for all varieties to compensate for reduced tillering in warm growing conditions. Maturity groupings may differ from district to district, particularly from central to southern Queensland.
C = Conventional
Varieties sown at their most appropriate planting times flower after the main frost period, although late frosts may still cause damage.
L = Late
The reliability of yield can be low following a very late planting due to high temperatures during flowering and grain filling.
Varieties in Table 1 are presented in maturity groups within individual districts † Plant wheat varieties two weeks earlier in the West Moreton
Four new varieties are available for planting in Queensland in 2018:
• DBA BindaroiA (durum wheat)
• DBA VittaroiA (durum wheat)
• LongReach MustangA (milling wheat)
• SEA Condamine (feed wheat)

DURUM WHEATS
EGA BellaroiA 920405/920274 P Seednet EGA 2002Outclassed due to lower yield potential. Very good grain and semolina quality but poor dough strength. Performs very well under irrigation.
HypernoA Kalka sister line/Tamaroi P AGT AGT 2009 Highest long term yielding durum variety in Queensland with similar maturity to EGA BellaroiA. Good semolina colour and colour stability.
DBA AuroraA Tamaroi*2/Kalka//RH920318/Kalka///Kalka*2/Tamaroi P SADGA UA 2014
Exceptionally high yielding variety, particularly in the SE Queensland zone. Similar maturity to Hyperno,A with good semolina and colour stability attributes. To achieve high protein (>13%), nitrogen inputs need to be carefully managed. Performs very well under irrgation, but this will increase the chances of lodging due to very high yield potential.
CaparoiA LY2.6.3/930054 P Seednet NSW DPI 2009 Main season variety, around 1–2 weeks slower than JandaroiA. Well suited to drier areas and performs well under irrigation.
DBA BindaroiA CAPAROI/261102. P Seednet NSW DPI 2017
Recommended for dryland cropping. Higher yielding and better grain quality than CaparoiA. Best crown rot resistance rating compared with all released durum varieties in 2015 and 2016 NVT. Best performance compared with all released durum varieties in DBA yield loss trials.
DBA VittaroiA 200856/980990 P Seednet NSW DPI 2017
Recommended for irrigated cropping. Short stature and high tolerance to lodging. High yield combined with excellent grain protein achievement and grain and semolina quality under irrigated conditions relative to EGA BellaroiA.
JandaroiA 920777/111566 P Seednet NSW DPI 2006
Reputed for high grain quality, low screenings and tolerance to weathering. Exceptional dough strength. Quick variety with good semolina colour and yield over Wollaroi and EGA BellaroiA. Performs well in drier areas.
DBA LillaroiA P Seednet NSW DPI 2015
This variety is preferred by millers and has the highest semolina yield, highest yellow pigment, highest 1000 grain weight and lowest screenings compared with other released varieties. Medium early variety, around 2–3 days later than JandaroiA. Higher yielding than JandaroiA and suited to dry seasons. Performs better than Jandaroi in double cropping e.g. after a cotton crop.

NVT provides Estimated Genetic Values (EGVs) for grain yield for commercial varieties. Estimates of genetic value (yield) of individual varieties (on a state or region basis) have been obtained from a statistical analysis of long-term multi-environment trial (MET) data collected between the years 2013–2017. The long-term yield tables summarise the EGVs in terms of a varieties performance as a percentage of site mean yield. These values represent the best available predictions for the specified region and are provided to facilitate reliable variety selection decisions.
QUEENSLAND WHEAT VARIETIES 2018 13
Locality based yield graphs for NVT wheat trials 2013–17The regional mean yields shown in Tables 4.1 to 4.6 (pages 11 to 13) average varietal performance across trial locations within each region. Averaging over locations within a region masks variety by environment interaction, that is, the ability of a variety to yield differently between locations or across seasons (years). The production value shown in the graphs below unlocks the variability in grain yield performance of each variety observed over different locations and seasons in the NVT trialling system. The production value (PV) is the varietal yield advantage (tonnes per hectare) of a variety at an environment. The PVs are shown as positive or negative differences relative to a baseline, which reflects the expected average yield of all the varieties tested in
each environment. Varieties may be viewed as having expected yields that are equal to the baseline (PV=0) or above (PV>0) or below (PV<0) average for each particular environment. The graphs are given for a standard set of varieties in all locations with more than four years of testing. Further information can be obtained upon request from Clayton Forknall (clayton.forknall@daf.qld.gov.au).
