Abstract

Abstract : 'Tiger' (Reg. No. CV‐1085, PI 661995) hard white winter wheat ( Triticum aestivum L.) was developed at the Agricultural Research Center–Hays, Kansas State University and released by the Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station in 2010. Tiger was selected from a three‐way cross, KS98H245/'Trego'//KS98HW518, made in 1999 at Hays, KS. The objective of this cross was to develop a hard white winter wheat cultivar with the adaptation to the dryland production system in western Kansas. Tiger is an F6 –derived line with the experimental number KS05HW136‐3‐1. Tiger was released because of its high grain‐yield potential under unirrigated conditions in western Kansas, its good disease and insect resistance, and its superior bread‐baking and noodle qualities.
