Abstract

‘Infinity CL’ (Reg. No. CV-982, PI 639922) is a hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L. ) cultivar developed cooperatively by the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station and the USDA-ARS and released in 2005 by the developing institutions. Infinity CL was released primarily for its herbicide tolerance to imadazoline compounds which control many previously difficult to control weeds in wheat production systems, and for its superior adaptation to rainfed wheat production systems in Nebraska and counties in adjacent states. The name Infinity CL was chosen because it is a Clearfield wheat that will be used with Beyond herbicide {active ingredient imazamox, 2-[4,5-dihydro-4-methyl-4-(1- methylethyl)-5-oxo-1H-imidazol-2-yl]-5-(methoxymethyl)-3- pyridinecarboxylic acid; BASF Corp., Triangle Park, NC}.
