Shotgun Wheat
Shotgun has been a standout performer in our breeding program and builds upon a famous lineage of varieties: Wyalkatchem Mace and then Scepter.
Shotgun is derived from Scepter and is agronomically very similar. Growers who have experience with Scepter can view Shotgun as a Scepter replacement with the same maturity and plant type but offering much higher yield.
Shotgun will also be viewed as an alternative to Vixen and Rockstar for those looking for the next big yield jump.
Shotgun has a very similar disease resistance package to Scepter and offers small improvements in powdery mildew and stripe rust resistance however Shotgun will need to be managed like Scepter for these diseases.
- Higher yielding Scepter type replacement.
- Mid-season maturity.
- AH Quality classification.
