General Information
AgResearch and Education Center Tests: The 2015 variety performance tests were conducted on 96 soft, red winter wheat varieties in each of the physiographic regions of the state. Tests were conducted at the East TN (Knoxville), Plateau (Crossville), Highland Rim (Springfield), Middle TN (Spring Hill), Milan (Milan), and West TN (Jackson) AgResearch and Education Centers (REC) and at the Agricenter International in Memphis.
All varieties were seeded at rates from 28-32 seed per square foot (1.2–1.4 million seed per acre) (Table 1). Plots were seeded with drills using 7–7.5 inch row spacing. The plot size was six, seven, nine or ten rows, 25 to 30 feet in length depending on location equipment. Plots were replicated three times at each location. Seed of all varieties were treated with a fungicide.
County Standard Tests: The County Standard Wheat Test was conducted on 24 soft red winter wheat varieties across nine counties in Middle and West Tennessee (Dyer, Fayette, Gibson, Henry, Lake, Madison, Moore, Tipton, and Weakley). Each variety was evaluated in a large strip-plot at each location, thus each county test was considered as one replication of the test in calculating the overall average yield and in conducting the statistical analysis to determine significant differences. At each location, plots were planted, sprayed, fertilized, and harvested with the equipment used by the cooperating producer in their farming operation. The width and length of strip-plots were different in each county; however, within a location in a county, the strips were trimmed so that the lengths were the same for each variety, or if the lengths were different then the harvested length was measured for each variety and appropriate harvested area adjustments were made to determine the yield per acre.
Wheat Silage Tests: In order to evaluate the 2015 wheat varieties for silage yield, aduplicate test with a different randomization was planted at the Middle Tennessee
Research and Education Center. These data will be presented in the UT Extension Silage Tests publication (SP 618) later this year.
Growing Season: In spite of heavy and persistent rains, winter wheat planting progressed more quickly in 2014 than in 2013. Drastically cooler temperatures in mid-November did affect the emergence of newly planted wheat. In the spring, wheat developed well ahead of last year due to favorable moisture conditions. While the majority of the wheat crop showed no freeze damage, 33% did exhibit freeze damage in the spring. According to the Tennessee Agricultural Statistics Service (TASS), the crop rated mostly good (49%) to excellent (30%) condition by mid-June. Estimated State yield average is 71 bu/a in 2015, a 5 bu/a increase compared to 2014 yields. Tennessee producers planted approximately 530,000 acres of wheat in the fall of 2014. Approximately 410,000 acres are estimated to be harvested for grain. According to TASS, the total wheat production in Tennessee for 2015 is projected to be 29.1 million bushels, a decrease of seven percent from 2014 production.
Interpretation of Data
The tables on the following pages have been prepared with the entries listed in order of performance, the highest-yielding entry being listed first. All yields presented have been adjusted to 13.5% moisture. At the bottom of the tables, LSD values stand for Least Significant Difference. The mean yields of any two varieties being compared must differ by at least the LSD amount shown to be considered different in yielding ability at the 5% level of probability of significance. For example, given that the LSD for a test is 8.0 bu/a and the mean
5
yield of Variety A was 50 bu/a and the mean yield of Variety B was 55 bu/a, then the two varieties are not statistically different in yield because the difference of 5 bu/a is less than the minimum of 8 bu/a required for them to be significant. Similarly, if the average yield of Variety C was 63 bu/a then it is significantly higher yielding than both Variety B (63 - 55 = 8 bu/a = LSD of 8) and Variety A (63 - 50 = 13 bu/a > LSD of 8).
The coefficient of variation (C.V.) values are shown at the bottom of each table. This value is a measure of the error variability found within each experiment. It is the percentage that the square root of error mean square is of the overall test mean yield at that location. For example, a C.V. of 10% indicates that the size of the error variation is about 10% of the size of the test mean. Similarly, a C.V. of 30% indicates that the size of the error variation is nearly one-third as large as the test mean. A goal in conducting each yield test is to keep the C.V. as low as possible, preferably below 20%.

Results Summary
Yield and Agronomic Traits: During 2015, 96 wheat varieties were evaluated in seven AgResearch and Education Center (REC) tests, and 24 varieties were evaluated in nine county standard tests (CST). Twenty-three varieties in the CST were also present in the REC tests (Table 5). Sixteen companies and four universities entered varieties into the tests this year. The average yield of the 96 varieties in the 2015 REC tests was 68 bu/a (range from 61 to 75 bu/a, Table 2). The varieties ranged in maturity from 209 to 215 days after planting (DAP) with most of the varieties clustering around 211 DAP (Table 3). The average yield of the 24 varieties in the county tests was 71.9 bu/a, with individual varieties ranging from 65.2 to 77.8 bu/a (Table 4). The test weight values ranged from 53.3 to 61.6 lbs/bu in the REC tests (Table 3) and 57.2 to 59.9 lbs/bu in the CST (Table 4).
