for traits that are difficult/expensive to assess under field c<strong>on</strong>diti<strong>on</strong>s. This selecti<strong>on</strong><br />

during generati<strong>on</strong> advance will increase the likelihood of developing lines with target<br />

profiles. With doubled haploids, <strong>on</strong>e produces many lines without target profiles leading<br />

to a waste of agr<strong>on</strong>omic and quality testing resources.<br />

Crosses: Based <strong>on</strong> performance of current winter lines under spring seeding we<br />

hypothesize that agr<strong>on</strong>omic performance is limited by the spring parent (88ab536<br />

– Morex). Accordingly, we reas<strong>on</strong>ed that we should focus <strong>on</strong> c<strong>on</strong>verting spring<br />

types with better agr<strong>on</strong>omic performance than Morex – e.g. Excel and Stander.<br />

We made crosses of STAB 7, 47, 113, Kab 47, Kab 51 with Excel and Stander.<br />

The advance of this germplasm will be the subject of our proposal for c<strong>on</strong>tinued<br />

winter malting barley development.<br />

Germplasm advance: Progeny from the following cross combinati<strong>on</strong>s are<br />

currently being advanced via SSD in the greenhouse: STAB 7/ STAB 113;<br />

STAB113/STAB 47, KAB 43, and KAB 50; STAB 47/ KAB43, and KAB 51;<br />

STAB 7/KAB 43 and KAB 51.<br />

Cycle 1: Head rows<br />

The following SSD populati<strong>on</strong>s were planted in the fall of 2001 at Corvallis as F4 head<br />

rows:<br />

• STAB 113/Kab 43; Stab 113/Kab 50;Stab 113/Stab47; Stab 47/Kab 51; Stab<br />

7/Kab 51; Stab 7/Kab 43; Stab 7/Stab 113; Stab 113/Stab 47<br />

• Strider/Orca six-row lines (F7) selected for BYDV resistance<br />

• A set of winter barley top crosses<br />

Cycle 2. Single replicati<strong>on</strong> yield trials<br />

• All STAB white aleur<strong>on</strong>e mapping populati<strong>on</strong> lines and parents; 140 entries.<br />

Cycle 3. Replicated yield trials<br />

• Selected STAB and KAB lines, plus checks at Pendlet<strong>on</strong>, Oreg<strong>on</strong>; Pullman,<br />

Washingt<strong>on</strong>; Aberdeen, Idaho.<br />

Cycle 4: Pre-release<br />

• AMBA Pilot scale drill strips: STAB 47, STAB 7, STAB 133, KAB 47; KAB<br />

51 at Pendlet<strong>on</strong> and Aberdeen<br />

• Management trials: Nitrogen, Chloride, Zinc, and date of planting at<br />

Pendlet<strong>on</strong> and Moro.<br />

• On farm <strong>on</strong>e acre trials:<br />

o STAB 113: Paul Williams at Davenport, WA<br />

o Stab 47: Bill Jepsen at Heppner, OR<br />

o Kab 37: Melvin St<strong>on</strong>ebrink at Wallowa, OR
