Abstract

AC Hill oat (Avena sativa L.) is a spring-type, daylength-sensitive, naked-seeded cultivar suitable for the feed and food industries in eastern Canada. It outperformed the check cultivar Tibor in yield, kernel size, hectolitre weight, and percentage of covered seeds in threshed grain. It is resistant to crown rust (Puccinia coronata Cd. f.sp. avenae Eriks. and E. Henn.) race CR13 but is equal to Tibor in loose smut (Ustilago avenae (Pers.) Rostr.) resistance, plant height and susceptibility to septoria (Septoria avenae Frank f.sp. avenae) blotch and barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV). It is more susceptible to lodging and later in heading and maturity than Tibor.Key words: Avena sativa L., rust and smut resistance, cultivar description, naked oat
