The parentage of Brawn is 'Coker 227'//'Clintford'/'Portal'/ 3/'Ogle'/4/'Don'. The experimental line IL 85-6264 was first selected as an F5 plant row that originated from a single panicle selected from an F4 bulk grown in the field at Urbana in 1984. The Fz and F3 generations of the bulk population were grown in the greenhouse using modified single-seed descent. The line designated IL 85-6264 was reselected in the F6 by selecting a single plant row grown from a single panicle. This reselected line, designated IL 85-6264-1, was increased to produce breeder seed of Brawn. Brawn has been consistently high yielding in many environments. Based on data from trials in Illinois and the Uniform Midseason Oat Performance Nursery, Brawn has been equal to, or slightly better than, Ogle (1) for grain yield in most environments.
