Description: AP ILIAD is a soft white winter wheat that was selected for height, maturity, appearance, kernel color, kernel soundness, disease reaction, and end use quality. AP ILIAD is primarily adapted to the intermediate to high rainfall and irrigated production in Eastern Washington. It has also tested well in irrigated production in Southern Idaho. AP ILIAD has shown above average resistance to stripe rust, soilborne mosaic virus, and physiological leaf spotting.
