Abstract The software IPRDataCol was developed in 2017 at the Instituto Agronômico do Paraná (IAPAR) by a research group (Nucleo1) studying information technology applied to agricultural research. Due to the software architecture, whether the label-generating nor the data capture module use any native database, i.e, the program can be used directly from portable storage devices with flash memory. It is designed as a support tool to meet the needs of different research projects, regarding optimization in the identification of experimental plots in the field or laboratory/greenhouse, with subsequent logging of yield data measured by electronic scales, and storage in digital files. The software can be downloaded free of charge from the internet (http://nucleo1.org), without registration. The use of this program will contribute to minimize errors in data acquisition since the typing phase is not necessary for yield data measured by electronic scales.

Abstract The oat cultivar IPR Afrodite, resulting from a cross between CFT 2 and the inbred line ER 88144-1, is high-yielding, has grain quality traits that are relevant for food processing and industry, and is resistant to the root-knot nematode species Meloidogyne incognita, M. javanica, M. paranaensis and M. enterolobii.

The wheat cultivar IPR Catuara TM, obtained from a cross between the line LD 975 and the cultivar IPR 85, exhibits high gluten strength, which will allow the milling industry to supplement flours from wheats with weaker gluten strength, resulting in better quality products for the final consumer.
