Lentils in the southern mallee: varieties, sowing dates and herbicide tolerance locations
Aims

To investigate the adaptability of a range of new lentil varieties and variety mixes to varying sowing dates, identify levels of tolerance to a range of group B herbicides in several breeding lines of lentils which have been selected from the Pulse Breeding Australia breeding program for improvements in tolerance to imidazolinone herbicides.

Key messages
  • Newly released varieties, PBA Ace and PBA Bolt, had the highest grain yields at Curyo (southern Mallee, Vic.) in 2012.
  • Yields exceeded 2.5t/ha for both varieties when sown early, despite the very dry season. All varieties had higher grain yields when sown early (May 4) compared with later dates (June 5 and June 22).
  • Varietal differences were evident in the relative decline in grain yield as sowing dates were delayed.
  • Differences in tolerance to a range of group B herbicides were observed in several breeding lines. Pulse Breeding Australia will use this information to define future breeding directions for herbicide tolerant varieties, following PBA Herald XT.
