A short variety with stiff straw. OWBM resistant with a Septoria resistance of 7.0 making it a versatile variety with a strong disease package and high yield to rival feed wheats. Group 3 (UKS) KWS FIREFLY Cougar x KWS Rowan Fusarium Ear Blight Septorium Tritici Brown Rust Yellow Rust Mildew UK Yield (%) UK Yield (T/Ha) Resistance to Lodging with PGR Spec Weight (kg/Hl) Untreated Yield (%) Orange Wheat Blossom Midge Height (cm) 101 10.9 8 76 80 R 83 5 7 5 7 5 Anapolis has delivered impressive yields in Pearce Seeds trials. Excellent disease profile with an 8 for fusarium, it is particularly suited to follow maize; very leafy and suits a whole crop position as well. Good overall disease scoring and consistently high yields in Pearce trials with a 6.5 for Septoria and 9 Yellow Rust. It never made NL but was identified through Pearce Seeds own trial work as a variety that would suit our after maize demand choice for feed wheat. Better in a later drilling position. Group 4 ANAPOLIS Arden & Skelmeje Fusarium Ear Blight Septorium Tritici Brown Rust Yellow Rust Mildew UK Yield (%) UK Yield (T/Ha) Resistance to Lodging with PGR Spec Weight (kg/Hl) Untreated Yield (%) Orange Wheat Blossom Midge Height (cm) 103 - 7 79.9 - - - 6 High yielding in the West in particular – attributed to its outstanding disease resistance especially against Septoria tritici with a 6.8. The variety exhibits good all-round disease resistance although it is not resistant to Orange Wheat Blossom Midge. It is also early maturing and moderately tall and very stiff straw. It can be grown across a range of soil types but it is probably best suited to medium or heavy soils. Suited to early drilling as has slow autumn speed of development but shouldn’t go in before 10th September because of eyespot resistance - 4 and performs best as a first wheat.
