THE 1985 ALABAMA PERFORMANCE COMPARISON OF SMALL GRAIN VARIETIES W. C. Johnson and Darrell Williams INTRODUCTION The large number of commercially available varieties of wheat, oats, rye, barley, and triticale makes it difficult for growers to select varieties most suited for their particular area of the State. Making this decision requires up-to-date, unbiased, reliable informa- tion. This report is published annually to provide Alabama growers with this information. Data from tests conducted at 12 locations were used to compile this report and they represent the varied growing conditions farmers have around the State. Procedure The experimental design for the tests was a split plot design with species as the main plot and varieties as subplots. Plots were 5 feet by 20 feet with rows spaced 7 inches apart. A cone drill was used to plant all tests in the State except Headland. Each variety was replicated three times in each test. The trials were divided into three management systems: grain only, grain following grazing, and forage only. Grain only: These tests were planted during late October to early November, which was approximately one month later than the forage tests. These tests were fertilized with P and K according to soil test plus 20 Professor and Research Associate of Agronomy and Soils. 7 pounds N per acre at planting with a topdressing of 60 pounds N per acre in late February or early March, just prior to jointing. The plots were not sprayed to control disease, so that the varieties could be rated for their inherent disease resistance. The grain was allowed to mature and was harvested with a plot combine. The grain was cleaned, weighed, moisture determined, and bushel test weight measured. Grain following grazing: These tests were grazed periodically during fall and winter, followed by removal of cattle in February or March to allow the crop to joint and produce grain. These tests were planted around October 1, and fertilized at planting with 100 pounds N per acre. The plots were grazed closely each time 6-8 inches of forage were available, but no animal or forage data were taken. The grazing was stopped in late February or early March, and the test was topdressed with 60 pounds N per acre and allowed to joint and produce grain. The grazing tests were located at Winfield and Camden only, Forage only: The forage only tests were planted around October 1 and fertilized at planting with 100 pounds N per acre and clipped each time they reached 6 inches in height with a flail-type mower. A sample was weighed green from each plot, then dried and reweighed. The percent dry matter figure from these weights was used to calculate dry forage matter per acre. The test was topdressed in February with 60 pounds N per acre and continued to be clipped until no regrowth occurred in the spring. DATA EXPLANATION Grain yields were calculated by weighing air-dried grain and using 60 pounds per bushel for wheat, 32 pounds per bushel for oats, 48 8 pounds per bushel for barley, and 50 pounds for triticale. Lodging was measured as percent of the stand broken or leaning that would likely be missed by a combine. The height was measured from the ground to top of the grain head. The 1/10 headed date is the date when approximately 10 percent of the plot showed fully emerged heads. Disease ratings for wheat and barley are given in tables 16-21. Dr. Robert T. Gudauskas, Department of Botany, Plant Pathology, and Microbiology, compiled these disease ratings from each test location. The ratings were taken when most varieties were in the soft dough stage of maturity. Hessian fly was a serious pest in small grain fields of west- central Alabama this season. Dr. Paul M. Estes, Department of Zoology-Entomology, rated the small grain variety tests at Camden and Prattville for levels of infestation. His report is on pages 46-49. DISCUSSION Growing conditions and varietal performance often vary among locations and years. Regional averages and multiple-year averages are given here to use as a better indicator for performance comparison. Variety recommendations are made for general regions of the State and are based on performance at several locations in each region. Recommen- dations are made on the basis of at least 3 years' data. The grain following grazing test was first planted in 1983. Three- year averages shown for this test were calculated using grain produced following clipping, which was the experimental procedure of previous years to simulate grazed conditions. 9 TAILF 1.

It can develop on all small grains except oats, but it shows preference for wheat. This minute black gnat-like fly lays eggs on the upper surface of leaves of small grains in the fall or spring. The maggots crawl into the leaf whorl and feed by abrading the tissue and sucking the plant juices. Plants infested by Hessian fly exhibit lodging, reduced tillering, and stunted growth. The maggot feeds for several weeks to a few months, then transforms into the pupal stage. The Hessian fly is primarily a cool weatherinsect and goes through the summer in the pupal stage hidden in straw. Adult flies will emerge from the pupa only when temperatures begin to decrease in the fall or begin to increase in the spring. In the major small grain growing areas of the United States such as the Great Plains, Hessian fly adults emerge over a relatively short period in the fall. This pest can be controlled in those areas by delaying fall planting until danger of fly oviposition is past. This is known as the "fly-free planting date." Because of the moderate fall and winter tempera.tures in the Southeastern United States, adult flies are present almost every month during this period. Planting date cannot be used as a reliable method of management of Hessian fly in Alabama. Many small grain varieties have been developed that exhibit some form of resistance to Hessian fly. The use of resistant small grains is one of the best methods of controlling this pest. Many factors influence resistance to Hessian fly and one of the most important is temperature. Certain varieties of wheat that show good resistance in 46 the cooler regions of the United States have proven to be susceptible when grown in warmer climates. Thus, selecting varieties for use in the Southeastern United States cannot be based entirely on the way the variety has performed in other areas of the country. Hessian fly is not usually a serious pest in Alabama; however, over the past several years infestations have increased in several areas of the State. During the 1984-85 growing season, severe infestations occured in west-central Alabama involving more than 10,000 acres. The small grain variety trials conducted at both Camden and Prattville had Hessian fly infestations. Damage was severe at Camden and light at Prattville. After the grain in these tests had matured, samples were collected from each replicate (20 stems at Camden and 10 stems at Prattville) and examined for larvae and pupae of the Hessian fly. The number of insects in each stem was noted and the average number of pupae per stem and the average percent stems infested were calculated. These data are presented in tables 22 and 23. All statistical tests were conducted at the 5% level of significance. Caution should be exercised in using these limited data. Varieties that show little Hessian fly infestation may not be resistant to this species but may merely have escaped infestion by some other means, such as maturity date of location in the field. Stacy, Pioneer brand 2550, and McNair 1003 are wheat varieties that have shown some resistance to Hessian fly and are also recommended in certain areas of Alabama. 47 Table 22.
