IntroductionGrains industry productivity is dependent upon the continued adoption and deployment of new technologies, including the adoption of new varieties with superior yield and useful disease resistance characteristics.
National Variety Trials seek to collect the most relevant varieties for each region and test them alongside the elite lines from breeding programs. For complete information on the released varieties in the NVT trials in Queensland visit the NVT website (www.nvtonline.com.au).
The 2013 season Full soil moisture profiles at the end of February 2013 created optimism for widespread planting and above-average yields. However, patchy rainfall in April, May and June spread wheat plantings across the range of the planting window. In southern Queensland most of the delayed plantings were caused by late rainfall. In many areas of the Western Downs early planting was conducted with moisture-seeking operations. In central Queensland some regions experienced persistent rainfall, which delayed planting operations. In the end a full set of NVT trials were able to be planted throughout Queensland.
Above average early season rainfall in central Queensland, primarily April and May, resulted in above average crops for the regions that were able to plant early. From June onwards little or no rain fell and crops progressed on stored moisture alone. Much of the central Queensland crop was close to 10 percent protein again. After many years of low protein farmers need to take more notice of soil nutrient levels and adjust nitrogen inputs to suit. Southern Queensland received little or no in-crop rainfall and as a result yields were low and protein was generally high.

Disease characteristicsLEAF AND STEM DISEASES: These diseases are more likely to cause problems in wetter seasons, particularly when there has been a wet season the year before and large amounts of inoculum exist in stubbles or volunteer hosts. Losses from rusts are potentially great so growers need to utilise varieties with good resistance or be prepared to spray with fungicides one or more times as required.
YELLOW SPOT: Carryover of infected yellow spot stubble from 2012 meant that, with the early rains in some areas, seedlings were affected in 2013. However, with the abrupt stop in the rains early in the season, yellow spot development also stopped in most regions. By the time plants reached flag leaf emergence, a stage of development at which the yellow spot could affect yield, there was little yellow spot infection on the upper leaves to impact on yield. It is unclear how much fungicide was used for yellow spot control in 2013, but with little infection later in the season there would have been scarce financial return on use of a fungicide. Parts of the Darling Downs had severe frost but because of the severity of the frost, there was little confusion of the symptoms of frost with those of leaf disease. Environmental conditions in 2013 did not result in widespread physiological blotches, so unlike in 2012 they were not confused with yellow spot.
If 2014 is a wet year the seedling disease from 2013 could result in enough infected stubble to create an epidemic of yellow spot from stem elongation to maturity if growers sow wheat-on-wheat. To reduce yield loss and minimise unnecessary sprays growers should monitor disease levels, but avoid making spray decisions until close to flag leaf emergence and they are sure the disease is yellow spot.
STRIPE RUST: There were no reports of stripe rust in central Queensland in 2013. In southern Queensland, stripe rust arrived late and like 2012 was again generally not a significant disease. This may have been due to the lack of rain and less favourable temperatures. As the pathogen can blow tens of kilometres or more, jumping from one crop to another. There will always be enough inoculum if conditions are conducive. Always select a cultivar with good resistance, or be prepared to invest in multiple fungicide sprays and take some yield losses if a serious epidemic develops or weather prevents spraying at optimum times.
LEAF RUST: While not severe, leaf rust was more widespread than in recent years. Leaf rust is often rare in Queensland, but growers in the region should watch for its development in crops that should have good resistance which may develop severe disease. In either case contact your local agronomist or DAFF pathologist for advice.
CROWN ROT: As the source of disease development and resultant yield loss in winter cereals, crown rot inoculum in the soil continues to present a threat. Crown rot inoculum survives for several seasons, so the wet seasons in 2010 and 2011, and the wet start to 2012, built up inoculum that has been maintained through 2013. The problem for growers is that a wet season builds up inoculum but crops show few symptoms and yields are good, so the temptation is to grow another wheat crop. A dry season, particularly a dry finish, does not necessarily build up inoculum, but symptoms are severe and losses are high.
In 2013 widespread crown rot was observed, but not severe symptoms, which means there is still enough inoculum across the region to put crops at risk in 2014.
ROOT LESION NEMATODES (RLN): Widespread in the northern grains region, RLN can significantly reduce wheat yields. RLN are also hosted by many non-cereal crops, so the absence of a winter-cereal crop in recent seasons does not mean that there are low levels of nematodes in the soil. A soil testing service for RLN is available through the PreDictaB service (contact your local agronomist for details). A test should be considered prior to planting if you do not know the species of nematode or levels in your soils. If wheat is to be sown in nematode-infested soil, the tolerant varieties (listed as T-MT or MT and highlighted in green) should be considered. The reaction of a wheat variety may differ to the two species of RLN, Pratylenchus thornei and P. neglectus. This should be checked in Tables 2A and 2B (pages 6 and 7).
BUNT: To avoid bunt, wheat seed should be treated with a fungicidal dressing if it has been saved from a crop grown from untreated seed.
VARIETIES IN THIS GUIDE: Only varieties deemed suitable for conditions in the northern region (Queensland and northern New South Wales) have been included in this guide. If a variety is not mentioned, there is either no commercial seed available or there is concern that it may not carry robust rust resistances and may compromise the Queensland wheat industry. If seed of varieties not mentioned in this guide is obtained, please ensure that you are provided with current and reliable rust information by the vendor.

General notes Wheat Quality Australia classification changes Alterations have been made to the classification zones. Queensland is no longer a stand-alone region. Queensland is now incorporated within the northern and central regions of NSW, known as the Northern Classification Zone. Wheat varieties that had varying classifications in the different zones have now been given a common classification for the entire Northern Classification Zone. WallupA has changed from AH to APH and LongReach DartA and LongReach GauntletA have changed from APW to APH.
Bread and noodle wheats (Triticum aestivum)Bread and noodle wheats are the dominant types of wheats planted throughout Queensland and Australia. They fall into a number of classifications that have different receival standards, from APH with high quality requirements, through to feed wheat, which has limited quality requirements. Queensland conditions are conducive to the production of high quality grain. The breeding and development of new varieties reflects this. Flour milled from Australian Prime Hard (APH) wheat is used to produce high-protein Chinese-style yellow alkaline noodles and Japanese ramen noodles with superior brightness, colour and eating quality. Australian Prime Hard flour is also suitable for the production of high-protein, high volume breads and wanton dumpling skins. Australian Prime Hard can be blended with lower-protein wheats to produce flours suitable for a wide range of baked products.
Durum wheats (Triticum durum)Durum wheats are used in the production of pasta products, where the main requirement is grain of high protein, preferably above 13% and a minimum of 11.5%. Grain appearance is also important, downgrading can occur due to black point, weather damage and mottling. Acceptable levels of black point are: ADR1 – 3%; ADR2 – 5% and ADR3 – 20%.
Soft wheats Soft wheats represent two distinct types. The Soft Biscuit type (9 – 10% protein), suitable for use in the biscuit industry; and the Soft Noodle type (9 – 11.5% protein), suitable for the manufacture of cakes, pastry and white salted noodles.
Soft Biscuit types are best grown using irrigation and with appropriate crop management practices in place to achieve target protein levels. Capped domestic market volumes exist and growers are therefore urged to seek pre-plant contracts.
Feed wheatsFeed wheats are generally high-yielding varieties that have quality limitations for use in flour and noodle production.
Forage wheats Forage wheats are commonly of the winter type and have the major advantage of adaptability to a wide range of sowing times. The winter habit delays maturity in early sowings, thereby extending the period of vegetative growth. Maturity varies once vernalisation requirements have been met. Winter wheats are commonly sown in late March or early April.
Frost damage may be minimised by planting varieties within the range of dates recommended. This table was compiled from presently available data.
Planting categories
E = 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.
† Plant wheat varieties two weeks earlier in the West Moreton area.
Detailed wheat planting information for each region is available on the Queensland Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry (DAFF) website (www.daff.qld.gov.au).

Effects of grain defects on end-product qualityBlack point: Excessive levels may result in specky semolina or discoloured bran and wheat germ, and divide flours (pastry flour). End products are often visually unattractive; this is particularly the case with durum products such as pasta.
Sprouting (low falling number): Finished product is affected by high levels of alpha amylase present in the flour, which causes key-holing in bread, fragile noodles, and dark, discoloured biscuits and cakes. Minimal impact on pasta except at falling numbers (FN) < 200 seconds.
Frost damage: Can cause low falling number, reduced flour yield, increased grain hardness and very poor baking performance in bread, biscuits and breakfast cereals.
Excess screenings: Reduce grain and flour yield (loss of profitability) but have little effect on end product quality (excluding excess screenings due to frost and heat stress damage). During the 2002 harvest it was observed that a number of samples tested with high screenings had poor baking quality. This was attributed to heat stress damage during grain filling, which was also believed to be responsible for the high screenings.
Low density (test weight, kg/hl): Reduced grain and flour yield (loss of profitability), has little effect on end product quality (excluding low density due to frost and heat stress damage).
Heat damage (due to drying at temperatures above 60oC): Flour produced from this grain is of poor baking quality and baked products are often unsaleable.
Sensitivity of wheat varieties to herbicides (Table 4, page 11)Research in southern Queensland in the 14 years from 1999 to 2013 has shown that herbicide tolerance differs among the wheat varieties grown in the northern region.
The research was undertaken at weed-free sites and yields were compared between untreated crops and crops sprayed at recommended and double rates for each variety. Herbicide rates and crop stages at spraying are presented in Table 4.
The sensitivity of the varieties is summarised in the table using the following symbols based on the yield responses across all trials:
no significant yield reductions at a recommended and double rate
N (narrow margin) significant yield reductions at double rate in 1+ trials, but not at recommended rate
x% yield reduction (warning) significant yield reduction at recommended rate in 1 trial only
x-y% yield reductions (warning) significant yield reductions at recommended rate in 2+ trials
( ) years of screening, e.g. (2) is 2 years screening, (1/3) indicates there was yield loss in 1 year of 3 years screening.
NB Always follow label recommendations. All pesticide applications must accord with the currently registered label for that particular pesticide, crop, pest and region. Any research regarding pesticides and their use reported here does not constitute a recommendation for that particular use by the authors or DAFF. It must be emphasised that crop tolerances and yield responses to herbicides are strongly influenced by seasonal conditions.

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) are obtained from a statistical analysis of long-term multi-environment trial (MET) data collected between the years of 2009 and 2013. These values represent the best available predictions for the specified region and are provided to facilitate reliable variety selection decisions.
1. Grow varieties with adequate resistance to stem, stripe and leaf rust.
2. Phase out very susceptible (VS) or susceptible (S) varieties.
3. Remove volunteer plants, called the green bridge, at least four weeks before sowing.
4. Know the seedling and adult rust resistance or susceptibility of varieties sown.
5. Monitor crops – early disease detection and management is best.
6. Identify chemical options, taking into account maximum residue limits and withholding periods.
7. Play your part in national rust management and report infections to Stephen Neate on 07 4639 8888 and send samples to DAFF QLD, PO Box 2282, Toowoomba Qld 4350.
The Rust Bust is an initiative of the Australian Cereal Rust Control Program Consultative Committee, with support from the Grains Research and Development Corporation.
Plan to manage rust this season
If you find rust, be proactive and tell other growers.
