Yield adjusted to 13% moisture
MS= Varieties that have any MS letter in common are not statistically different in yield (based on 95% confidence)
*Treated plots sprayed with Miravis Top @13.7 fl oz/a + 0.25% Induce @ R3 growth stage
JAX varieties planted May 24, sprayed Aug. 3, and harvested Oct. 19
RECM varieties planted May 25, sprayed Aug. 2, and harvested Nov. 4
NONE, LOW, MOD, and HIGH is a relative ranking of disease severity at each location. Other noteS: SDS = Sudden Death Syndrome, L = Lodging
Soybean Cyst Nematode rateds as Resistant (R), Moderately Resistant (MR), Moderately Susceptible (MS), Susceptible (S), or High Susceptible (HS) to HG Type 1.2.5.7/Race 2
Disease ratings at JAX: Frogeye leaf spot ranged from 7 – 55%, averaged 27%; Target spot from 0 – 6%, averaged 2%; Brown spot from 9 – 29%, averaged 16%
Disease ratings at RECM: Frogeye leaf spot ranged from 5 – 13%, averaged 8%; Target spot was not observed; Brown spot from 12 – 21%, averaged 17%
