The advanced breeding lines were introduced in yield trial during the seasons of 2009/2010 and 2010/2011. genotype 1022 of the International nursery 40IBWSN which its origin 06 MULT 40 IBSN MX105 and the pedigree "PFAU / WEAVER*2/3 /WEAVER / ESDA / BORL 95 were exceeded on the other released cultivars in Iraq agriculture and out yielded more than 5.9 ton. ha-1 in comparison with the released cultivars with average ton. ha-1, 4.4 and 7 days for flowering and maturity in addition to its exceeding in spikes for one meter length and seeds.spikes-1.
