A comparative trial was sown on the Roseworthy Campus of<br />

the University of Adelaide. In 2009 the area carried a faba<br />

bean crop which was harvested for grain and the resultant<br />

stubble was baled and removed. Pre-seeding herbicides Boxer<br />

Gold (2.5L), Roundup Powermax (1.5L) and Lontrel (100ml)<br />

together with an insecticide Imidan (150ml) were applied<br />

prior to seeding on 8 Jun 2010. 90kg DAP fertiliser was<br />

applied with the seed. The season was very favourable for<br />

growth of the crop and of weeds and disease, so the trial was<br />

sprayed post emergence with Hussar OD (100ml), Lontrel<br />

(100ml) to control weeds, with Rogor insecticide (100ml),<br />

fungicide Opus 125 (500ml) for stripe rust and powdery<br />

mildew. Crop performance was enhanced with the application<br />

of micrunutrients and urea (50kg). Late in the season aphids<br />

needed to be controlled and Chlorpirifos (400ml) and Alphacypemetherin<br />

(200ml) was applied. At no time was the trial<br />

stressed by the weather so varieties were able to fully express<br />

their genetic potential.<br />

Randomised block design of 3 blocks and 40 entries<br />

consisting of comparators and potential candidates. Sown in<br />

12 ranges of 4 plots wide, block 1 being in ranges 1 to 4 and<br />

so on. Plots were 1.25m wide (5 rows) and 3.2m long. There<br />

were approximately 1000 plants per plot.<br />

Qualitative characters were recorded for every replicate at the<br />

appropriate growth stage. Quantitative characters were<br />

measured on 10 randomly sampled plants from each replicate,<br />

the samples being taken at the appropriate growth stage or<br />

after maturity. Statistical analyses were completed using<br />

GENSTAT software.<br />
