Why new varieties are evolved continuously and old run out with the passage of time. Simple reason is that they lose their resistance against diseases (Rust) and production capacity. Most farmers can not maintain their purity and old varieties run out. Some of the long lasting varieties like Pak-81, inqilab-91 and Faisalabad-2008 have record performance of 10 to 15 years but most have three to seven years only. Wheat research institute (AARI) Faisalabad’s verities are dominantly grown all over Punjab, parts of Sindh and KPK. This institute is developing new varieties under the scenario of changing weather and climate conditions. In this connection, three new varieties of wheat crop wiz Dilkash-2021, Subhani-2021 and MH-2021 have been evolved which have compact, white ear, bold grain size, medium stature, very high resistance against rust and yield potential of 70 maunds and even more in some cases. Dilkash variety is for mid-season and really attractive (دلکش) during its tilering stage. Subhabni variety has vertical leaf orientation and may also perform even in case of late sowing. Bold grain of MH-2021 make it very exclusive variety. We pay homage to the services of late Dr. Subhani for the nation of Pakistan.
More than 20 varieties of wheat crop have been approved from 2000 to 2019 in different research institutes. All the varieties have been grown in Wheat Research Institute Faisalabad. This institute has served the nation in the most professional way through the introduction of better varieties under the scenario of changing weather climate conditions. We have introduced wheat varieties which are currently playing their important role in our cereal production technology. Some varieties have smaller height so that they can take a high capcity of fertilizers. Out of these, major features of Faisalabad 2008, Lasani 2008, Punjab 2011, Galaxy 2013, Anaj 2017, Fakhr-e-Bhakkar, Bhakkar Star, Akbar 2019, Ghazi 2019, Johar and Gold 2017 have been highlighted in this video. Current status, comparative identification of different varieties at the booting stage has been shown for field use. Galaxy usaully more affected by rust. Wheat kinds that have usually more dense tillering tend to save moisture underneath so more chance of rust attack. We have described in special their variable resistance against rust.
