Abstract

The newly released bread wheat cultivar Misr 4 had been selected in the 2014/2015 growing season by Wheat Research Department, Field Crops Research Institute, Agricultural Research Center, Egypt, from the Stem Rust Resistant Screening Nursery (SRRSN), which is one of CIMMYT materials. In 2015/2016 growing season, the newly selected cultivar was evaluated in a screening yield trial for the exotic selections. In the view of its superiority, it raised up to be evaluated in the national preliminary yield trial (A trial BW) 2016/2017 growing season. Then in the two respective growing seasons of 2017/2018 and 2018/2019 it was evaluated in the advanced yield trial (D BW). The trials were conducted in 45 locations in old land of Delta and Upper Egypt in New Land. Results proved the high yielding ability of Misr 4 compared to the commercial bread wheat cultivars and its good grain yield stability under different environmental conditions. In addition to that, it has a high level of rust resistance. Thus, Wheat Research Department is recommending Misr 4 to be a commercial cultivar to be planted all over Egypt.
