Registration of “Aytenabla” Bread Wheat Variety

Registration of “Aytenabla” Bread Wheat Variety

Aytenabla, moderate hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) was released (Figure 1) in 2019 by Central Research Institute for Field Crops. Aytenabla, a semi-dwarf cultivar is adapted to Central Anatolia Regions which receives low to intermediate rainfall (300-350 mm average annual precipitation). It is characterized by high grain yield, moderate resistance to yellow rust, and medium grain quality. The pedigree of Aytenabla is ES8-24//KS82W409/ SPN/3/AKSEL 2000/4/TOSUNBEY/DEMİR 2000 and YA: 25451 F1 Double Haploid (DH). The crossing took place in 2011 and yield trails began in the 2013-14 growing seasons. Application for registration of Aytenabla bread wheat variety was submitted to the Seed Registration and Certification Institute in 2016. This project aimed to obtain DH pure lines by using anther culture technique. This technique is utilized to shorten the breeding process.
