This paper provides preliminary data on the observed relative resistance of Australian wheat varieties to grain shattering in the field at Wagga Wagga and Leeton.
• Grain shattering is a significant cause of grain yield loss in wheat, accounting for 11–13% of the variability in grain yield in this experiment.
• Genetic variation exists for grain shattering in Australian wheat varieties.
• However, grain shattering is also controlled by the environment, and this will influence choice of variety.
