USGA Summary Points:Seed lots harvested from the 2017 Isolation Blocks were scarified and germinated during the winter of 2019-2020. Due to reduced work times of staff because of social distancing imposed by COVID-19 pandemic, the newly produced progeny population (650) could not be planted. They will instead be held over in the greenhouse until the spring of 2021. A total of 24 new selections (12 red and 12 yellow) were made from the 2017 Isolation Blocks and the 2015 SPN and planted in 2019 Isolation Blocks. Two of the red seed parents have not grown well in the isolation block and neighboring entries have overgrown those plots so the functional number of red seed parents is 10 while the yellow seed parents remains at 12. Seed from those isolation blocks will be harvested in spring 2021. Our collaboration with Johnston Seeds has proven to be productive. Their evaluation of our germplasm and seed parents for cold hardiness in Enid, OK has led to the identification of 5 parental lines to be used in two synthetic/polycross nurseries and 11 medium/coarse textured lines for recombination in an isolation block.
