The new bread wheat variety Albatros M2025 was formed at the Bajío Experimental Field of the National Institute of Forestry, Agricultural and Livestock Research. The segregating generations were subjected to the modified mass selection method. The yield assessment was conducted in 10 agricultural cycles from 2015-16 to 2024-25. Albatros M2025 was registered and protected in the National Catalog of Plant Varieties (CNVV, by its Spanish acronym) with the number TRI-214-030725. The Albatros M2025 variety is resistant to yellow rust, with a maximum severity of 2%, compared with older varieties such as Cortazar S94 and Luminaria F2012, which showed severity levels of 40% and 80%, respectively. Under normal irrigation, the new variety surpassed Cortazar S94, Alondra F2014, Faisán S2016 and Cisne F2016 by 19.4, 11.1, 9.7 and 1.6%, respectively. Under restricted irrigation (two irrigations), Albatros M2025 obtained a yield of 4 324 kg ha-1, which was 15, 12.4, 1.5 and 1.8% higher than that of Cortazar S94, Alondra F2014, Faisán S2016 and Cisne F2016, respectively. With three irrigations, it achieved a yield of 5 726 kg ha-1, higher than that of Alondra F2014, Cortazar S94, Faisán S2016 and Cisne F2016 by 8.3, 6.9, 1.4 and 0.1%, respectively. It has the allelic combinations of high-molecular-weight glutenins 0, 7+9 and 5+10 and is of medium-strong gluten.
