4 2013 Heat Unit and Precipitation Summary for Exeter and Ridgetown. Ontario Corn Heat Units (OCHU) Huron Research (Exeter) Ridgetown Campus Norm Norm Month 2013 (34 yr) 2013 (39 yr) May June July August September October Total Precipitation (mm) Huron Research (Exeter) Ridgetown Campus Norm Norm Month 2013 (34 yr) 2013 (39 yr) May June July August September October Total % or more below average 20% or more above average 2013 Weather Heat unit accumulation was above average in 2013, particularly at Exeter. A warmer than normal May accounted for most of the increase in heat units. A killing frost occurred on October 3 at Exeter and October 21 at Ridgetown. Precipitation was above average at Exeter and average at Ridgetown. October was particularly wet at Exeter, with regular lake effect rain and snow. A number of heavy rain events occurred between late May and mid-july at both Exeter and Ridgetown. This led to planting delays (white mold 2 nd planting, Kippen variety) as well as moderate to severe damage to a number of field studies. Several studies (anthracnose transmission, root rot) were reseeded due to severe damage from rain events. Exeter had below average precipitation in August, which led to some crop stress and a lack of disease expression in some studies (foliar anthracnose). Early planted studies were harvested under decent field condtions in September. Later planted studies were harvested under very wet conditions in October. 4

5 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Variety Registration and Performance Trials (ongoing) Four studies were seeded in Seeding was on schedule at Blyth (June 9) but was late at Kippen (June 20). The Kippen site had severe rain damage in late June/early July. The Blyth site had moderate weather which resulted in good canopy growth regular rains in August led to low levels of white mold. Harvest conditions in September were good, but deteriorated quickly in October. Summary of Registration/Performance Trials, Huron Research Station, 2013 Location Market Class Average Yield C.V. Notes Blyth White Consistent through the season, some late season mold Kippen White High yield, first rep was weak (dropped) Kippen Cran/Kidney Decent yield, consistent despite early water damage Kippen Minor(black) High yield, Zorro still the dominant black bean Preliminary Yield Trials (ongoing) Six studies were seeded in 2013 at Blyth, Centralia, Kippen and Woodstock. The Centralia site was added in 2013 to provide an additional data point for both studies. A number of public and private breeding programs took part in the trials, including ADM, Agr. Canada/U of G, AmeriSeed (Co-op), Cooks, Cornell, Gen-Tec, HDC, Hyland, MSU, NDSU, Pro-Vita, Secan and Seminis. The primary sites were at Kippen and Centralia. These trials were replicated at Blyth (narrow row only) and Woodstock (wide row only). There were 82 entries tested a 32% increase in entries from Entries by market class are as follows: navy (19 entries), DRK (9 entries), LRK (10 entries), WK (4 entries), Cran (15 entries), Black (16 entries), Otebo (3) and Small Red (3). Food-type soybean, Pink, Pinto classes had 1 entry each. Black Top yielding lines include Shania, MSUB11343, COOPB04352 (very good 3 year data) and ACUG 10-B3. Zorro had average performance in Navy Top yielding lines include Apex, HMS Medalist, Rexter (top navy), T9905, ADMN8333, COOPN008072, COOPN06063 and MSUN Small Red PROVR09304 performed very well at Blyth and Centralia, but was ranked very low at Kippen. PROVR11511 was above average at Kippen and Centralia. Pink Rosetta performed very well at Kippen and Blyth, but below average at Centralia. Kidney MSUL11714 yielded similar to Inferno (a top yielder) at 2 of 3 sites, but was a few days earlier maturity. ACUG 12-D1 had similar yield as Dynasty and Majesty and is a few days earlier maturing. Cran Compared to Etna, SEMC1261 has similar yield and maturity, while ADMC is slightly later maturing and slightly lower yielding. HDC C1 and C2 are much later maturing, with inconsistent yield. C2 seems to outperform C1. MSU cran lines are slightly later maturing with inconsistent yield. MSUC performs best but has issues with marsh spot (see below). Pinto La Paz performed very well in the wide row trials, ranking highly at each site (1 st, 2 nd and 3 rd ). In the narrow row trials, it was slightly better than average. Otebo MSUG12901 maturity similar to Hime and later than Fuji. Yield is higher than Hime and Fuji. 5

6 Summary of Preliminary Yield Trials, Huron Research Station, 2013 Location Market Class Average Yield C.V. Notes Blyth Navy/Black/Misc Good yield, late mold pressure Centralia Navy/Black/Misc Strong drought in August Kippen Navy/Black/Misc High yield, consistent despite early water damage Centralia Cran/Kidney/Misc Strong drought in August Kippen Cran/Kidney/Misc Moderate yield Woodstock Cran/Kidney/Misc Some water and mold damage Total Entries 82 distinct entries at 6 sites Evaluation of Marsh Spot in Dry Beans (Ongoing, Year 8) Background - Marsh spot is a physiological disorder found primarily in cranberry beans (occasionally in kidney beans). Cells in the centre of the coltyledons die and turn a gray/black colour (see Fig. 1). The damage is evident once the seed is split along the cotyledonary axis, and opened up to view the interior of the cotyledons. Marsh spot creates serious marketing issues for bean dealers. Marsh spot incidence was average to above average in Registration/Performance Trials - Cranberry cultivars from trials at Kippen, Woodstock, Monkton, Elora and St. Thomas locations were evaluated for marsh spot and compared to Etna (resistant check) and Messina (susceptible check). All of the lines tested were similar to the resistant check Etna. Preliminary Yield Trials Cranberry cultivars from trials at Kippen and Woodstock were evaluated. Three lines (ADMC0259, MSUC11266 and MSUC11273) demonstrated some susceptibility, particularly at the Woodstock site. One line (MSUC11260) was worse than the susceptible check Messina at both sites.

7 Anthracnose (ongoing) Frequent rainfall after planting led to very high early disease pressure (the worst seen to date) across all of the anthracnose trials in Strobilurin fungicides were applied twice to contain the early disease pressure and prevent plant death. Unfortunately, this was followed by very dry conditions in August, which discouraged disease development. A lack of disease development was particularly evident in the foliar fungicide trials, and results of these studies will not be presented. Seed Treatment - Rancona (ipconazole), Evergol Xtend (penflufen/trifloxystrobin) and Heads Up (extract of Chenopodium spp.) were ineffective against anthracnose. BAS F (pyraclostrobin + fluxapyroxad) was similar to the industry standard (Apron Maxx + Dynasty), particularly in the trial seeded to OAC Rex. However, these results are based on a limited amount of data from stem infection only. Further research is needed to confirm these findings. Common Bacterial Blight Engage Agro (Year 3 of 3) The foliar product EAC1101 was compared to Parasol (industry standard) for the control of CBB in dry beans. CBB infection was introduced using infected seed as well as a foliar inoculum. Infected seed provided a more reliable form of inoculation. In some studies, EAC1101 was similar to Parasol for the control of CBB foliar symptoms. However, EAC 1101 had significant phytotoxity on the bean plants a single application resulted in approx. 20% leaf burn while three applications resulted in approx. 50% leaf burn. This level of phytotoxicity had a negative impact on yield. Root Rot Seed Treatment Rhizoctonia disease pressure was low to moderate in the low rate trial (3 g/m of row planted June 21) and very high in the high rate trial (6 g/m of row planted May 27). Planting date and weather patterns following planting had a major impact on disease pressure. Both trials were initially planted on May 27, but the low rate trial was damaged severely by rains following planting and replanted on June 21. The first 3 reps (of 6) for the high rate trial had minimal damage, and treatment observations are presented from these reps only. Vibrance (sedaxane) was similar to the Dynasty (industry standard) for plant emergence, but had the best plant vigour in the low rate trial. Yield was similar to Dynasty in the low rate trial, but lower than Dynasty in the high rate trial. Heads Up (extract of Chenopodium spp.) provided no control of rhizoctonia and was similar to the inoculated control for plant emergence and vigour and yield. Rancona (ipconazole) was similar to Dynasty in the low rate trial, but was markedly weaker in the high rate trial. The addition of sedaxane dramatically improved the performance of ipconazole in the high rate trial. BAS F (pyraclostrobin + fluxapyroxad) had the highest emergence in both trials. It was similar to Dynasty for yield in the low rate trial, but lower than Dynasty in the high rate trial. Apron Advance (thiabendazole/fludioxonil) was similar to Dynasty in the low rate trial, but weaker in the high rate trial. White Mold (ongoing) Two trials were planted in 2013 the second trial was planted very late (July 16) due to wet soil conditions. There was a high level of disease incidence and severity in both trials. Lance was similar to Allegro in the early planted study, but weaker in the late planted study. Allegro this product is considered the industry standard for white mold fungicides. There were dramatic differences in disease severity between Trt #3 (high rate, 1 application) and Trt #4 (high rate, 2 applications). This was due to a delay in disease onset disease severity increased 7

8 dramatically about 14 days after the first fungicide application, coinciding with the timing for the 2 nd application. This led to a dramatic increase in disease severity in Trt #3. It is interesting that the increase in disease severity in Trt #3 did not seriously reduce yield. There was no clear response between Allegro rate (Trt #2 vs Trt #4) in either trial. Serenade MAX In the early planting study, disease severity was slightly better than the control, but there were no differences in yield. In the late planting study, disease severity and yield were the same as the control. Serenade Optimum equal to the control for disease severity and yield in both trials. Serenade MAX + Lance had acceptable disease control and yield in both trials. Fluopyram was similar to Trt #4 (Allegro high rate, 2 applications) for disease severity and yield in both trials. Propulse - was slightly inferior to the equivalent treatment for Allegro, particularly in the late planted study. Trt #11 (high rate, 1 application) had much higher disease severity and lower yield, compared to Trt #12 (high rate, 2 applications) for similar reasons as stated above for Allegro. Senator performed very well. The high rate had the lowest disease severity and the highest yield in the early planting trial. Senator s performance in the late planted trial was inferior to Allegro. Vertisan had high disease severity and low yield (similar to the control), particularly in the early planted trial. Acapela had moderate disease control, particularly in the early planted trial. Yield was acceptable in the late planted trial. Priaxor had weaker disease control and yield in both trials. Priaxor + Lance had good disease control and yield better than Lance (Trt #2) in the late planted trial. Heads Up weak treatment that was similar to the untreated control in both trials. Quash weak treatment that was similar to the control in both trials. Effect of Microwave Radiation on Dry Bean Seed Infected with Colletotrichum lindemuthianum with and without the Use of Chemical Seed Treatment. A.P. Friesen, R. L. Conner, D. E. Robinson, W. R. Barton, and C. L. Gillard Seed-borne anthracnose, caused by Colletotrichum lindemuthianum, is a serious disease that affects dry bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) seed quality and yield. A two-year study was conducted to examine the effect of microwave radiation on two market classes: navy (cv. Navigator) and pinto (cv. AC Ole) bean. In the laboratory, a maximum exposure rate between s caused <10% decrease in seed germination and 0.14 and 0.10% s -1 decrease in pathogen viability for navy and pinto bean, respectively. Field studies conducted at Ridgetown and Exeter, ON evaluated the effect of microwave radiation and two chemical seed treatments (thiamethoxam + fludioxonil + metalaxyl-m + azoxystrobin and experimental BAS 720), on emergence, percentage of infection, seed pick, yield and return on investment. Microwave treatment decreased emergence by <10% in both market classes and decreased disease symptoms by 17-30% for leaf and stem infection in the pinto bean when combined with chemical seed treatment. Chemical treatment alone decreased disease symptoms by 30% in navy bean. Microwave treatment did not affect pod infection, seed pick, yield, or return, yet chemical treatment increased yield between 6-25% in the navy bean. 8
