Trical 336 Triticale Variety Description
U. S. Protected Variety
Trical 336 is a short stature mutant that originated as a single plant selection from a population of plants resulting from treatment of seeds of the variety, Lasko, by chemical mutagen.  Height of the selected mutant was approximately 25 cm shorter than Lasko, a height differential that was maintained in subsequent generations. Trical 336 was developed using a combination of bulk and pedigree breeding methods.  On the basis of experience of producing pre-breeder, breeder, and foundation seed, this variety appears to be stable and uniform.  Variants include trace amounts awnless, and spikes with inverted or curled awns.
