Abstract

Bravo, a medium maturing oilseed flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) was released in 2012 by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, Morden Research Station, Morden, Manitoba. Developed from the Flanders/Pacific made in 1995, AAC Bravo was evaluated in the Flax Cooperative Trials (2008-2010) before being registered in 2012. AAC Bravo's desirable combination of agronomic traits, particularly its significantly large seed size as compared with other commercially available cultivars, seed quality and disease resistance, should make it a useful cultivar for producers and the flax industry.
