Introduction to the Huamai No. 2 Wheat Variety and Key Cultivation Techniques

Long awns, white glumes, red grains, spindle-shaped spikes, and semi-hard to soft grain texture. The seedlings are upright, with broad and long leaves of a pale green color. It has relatively strong tillering ability, produces more spikes and more grains per spike, but the 1000-grain weight is slightly low. The plant architecture is relatively loose, with a plant height of about 84 cm, and it has relatively strong tolerance to fertilizer and resistance to lodging. The growth period is about 211 days, 1 day longer than the control. The effective spikes per mu are about 320,000, with about 38 grains per spike, and the 1000-grain weight is about 39 g. Inoculation identification results: moderate resistance to Fusarium head blight, susceptible to sheath blight, highly susceptible to wheat spindle streak mosaic virus, and highly resistant to pre-harvest sprouting. Field performance shows moderate susceptibility to sheath blight and powdery mildew. The two-year average quality analysis results: crude protein content 12.8%, wet gluten content 27.0%, stabilization time 3.5 minutes; it is a medium-gluten variety.
