Narrative
Bill Brown is an awned, white-chaffed, medium maturing, semidwarf, hard red winter wheat. Bill Brown is susceptible to susceptible to stem rust (caused by Puccinia graminis Pers.:Pers f. sp. tritici Eriks. and E. Henn; races QFCS, QTHJ, RCRS, RKQQ, TPMK, TTTT, and TTKS), susceptible to leaf rust (caused by Puccinia triticina Eriks.; races MCRK, THBJ, MJBJ, MHDS, KFBJ, TNRJ, MFPSC, and MLDSB) at the seedling stage, resistant to leaf rust at the adult plant stage, resistant (infection type 0) to race PST-116 and intermediate (infection type 5) to race PST-100 of stripe rust (Puccinia striiformis Westend.) at both the seedling and adult-plant stages, moderately susceptible to wheat streak mosaic virus, susceptible to barley yellow dwarf virus, susceptible to the Great Plains Biotype of Hessian fly [Mayetiola destructor (Say)], and susceptible to greenbug Biotype E [Schizaphis graminum (Rondani)]. Bill Brown is resistant to Russian wheat aphid Biotype 1 (Diuraphis noxia Kurdjumov) and susceptible to Russian wheat aphid Biotype 2. Bill Brown has acceptable values for milling-related traits (kernel weight, diameter, test weight, flour yield, wheat ash) and superior values for bread baking-related traits (wheat and flour protein concentration, mixograph mix time and tolerance, bake water absorption and mix time, pup loaf volume, and crumb grain).
