'Kitahonami' is a soft red winter wheat developed and released by Kitami Agricultural Experiment Station at Kunneppu, Hokkaido. It was developed from the cross 'Kitami 72' and 'Kitakei 1660'. 'Kitami 72' later released as 'Kitamoe' is moderately early maturing winter wheat with good flour color. It has moderately high pre-harvest sprouting resistance and moderately high resistance to wheat yellow mosaic virus. But it is susceptible to leaf rust and its noodle-making quality is inferior to that of 'Hokushin', because of its high amylose content. 'Hokushin' is most widely grown in Hokkaido and 'Kitamoe' is grown in the area where wheat production is suffering from yellow mosaic virus. 'Kitakei 1660' has moderately high resistance to leaf rust and pre-harvest sprouting resistance. It has also the Wx-B1 null allele. 'Kitahonami' was recommended by the Hokkaido government in 2006 because of high yield, good resistance to pre-harvest sprouting, good disease resistance, good milling and noodle-making quality with low ash content. It was registered as 'Wheat Norin No.168' by the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries of Japan in 2006.
