ABSTRACT

‘Maverick’ spring oat (Avena sativa L.) (Reg. No. CV-375, PI 652940) was developed cooperatively by the USDA-ARS and the Idaho Agricultural Experiment Station (AES) and jointly released in 2007 by the USDA-ARS, the Idaho AES, the Montana AES, and the Colorado AES. Maverick derives from the cross 80Ab988/‘Monida’ made in 1984 at Aberdeen, ID. Maverick was developed using a modified bulk selection program and selected as an F_5:6 head row at Aberdeen, ID, in 1990 and was given the selection designation of 90Ab1322. Maverick is a short-strawed oat cultivar suited to irrigated and higher moisture areas in Colorado, Idaho, and Montana. It is a white hulled, high-protein type favored in the equine industry.
