Aims

To gather information from the experiments for use to select material for commercial release and provide current information to crop advisers and farmers.

Key messages

Most named varieties gave similar grain yields to other TT or conventional varieties. Canola varieties known to have the Sylvestris gene for blackleg (Surpass 603CL and Surpass 501TT) did not suffer grain yield losses due to breakdown of the resistance gene. However, these varieties still should not be grown. The 2 speciality oilseeds (MC20I and MC202) produced comparable grain
yields to conventional canola varieties. Several new varieties were released; Skipton, Hyola 61 and Bravo TT. 2005 Blackleg ratings
guide should be used to assess blackleg rating of all varieties.
