Abstract: The wheat cultivar IPR 110, developed by IAPAR, presents as important traits a remarkable yield potential, and medium hard and red colored kernels, It is early in maturity and moderately tolerant to shattering and to soil aluminum. Additionally, it presents moderate resistance to leaf and stem rusts and moderate susceptibility to other leaf and spike diseases. The quality parameters indicated overall intermediate gluten strength, given by the alveographic W value of 170.10°4 Joules, and Hagberg Falling Number of 273 s, which indicates suitability for cookie and cake industry. IPR 110 flour blended with another, stronger wheat flour provides flour for bread baking. The mean grain yield over four seasons was 3940 kg ha-¹ in the north, 3150 kg ha’! in the center-west, and 3387 kg ha! in the southern region of Paraná State.
