There are many ways to evaluate diseases, agronomic characteristics, etc. Since many of these ratings are subjective, an explanation is listed here: R = Resistant implies no or very slight disease presence when conditions are favorable for development. MR = Moderate Resistant implies slight disease presence when conditions are favorable for development. M = Moderate implies some disease presence when conditions are favorable for development. MS = Moderately Susceptible implies significant disease presence when conditions are favorable for development. S = Susceptible implies very significant disease presence when conditions are favorable for development. * These are general recommendations based on data taken from breeder, university, company trials and producer field observations and do not constitute a warranty of fitness or guarantee of performance for a particular use. ** Double cropping Maturity Group IVs can be extremely risky without adequate irrigation and proper variety selection.
