Abstract
‘CDC Mindon’ (Reg. No. CV-337, PI 651860; CN107350; Canadian Food Inspection Agency [CFIA] Reg. No. 6224, Canadian PBR Appl. No. 07-5903) is a two-row spring feed barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) developed at the Crop Development Centre (CDC), University of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, SK, Canada, with collaboration by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada at the Brandon Research Centre, Brandon, MB, Canada, and the Eastern Cereal and Oilseed Research Centre, Ottawa, ON, Canada. CDC Mindon was tested in CDC yield trials as SB00106 in 2000-2003 and in the Western Canadian Cooperative Two-Row Barley Registration trial as TR04378 during 2004 and 2005. CDC Mindon was registered for production in western Canada as it has demonstrated good agronomic performance combined with good kernel quality and, of greater significance, enhanced resistance to Fusarium head blight (incited by Fusarium graminearum Schwabe) with lower deoxynivalenol accumulation in combination with tolerance to spot blotch [incited by Cochliobolus sativus (Ito & Kuribayashi) Drechs. Ex Dastur]. CDC Mindon is also resistant to the barley smuts (incited by Ustilago spp.).
