1VS=VERY SUSCEPTIBLE; R=RESISTANT; MR=MODERATELY RESISTANT; S=SUSCEPTIBLE; MS=MODERATELY SUSCEPTIBLE; (--)=INSUFFICIENT OPPORTUNITY TO RATE IN PRESENCE OF DISEASE.
In general, varieties with a VS or S reaction to a given disease will not perform well if that disease becomes severe, while varieties rated R or MR will perform well in those situations. Varieties with an MS reaction will have an intermediate response.
2Ratings of newly released varieties based on 1 yr. and 1 location.
3Based on disease progress and final disease level.
4Wheat spindle streak mosaic virus.
5BYDV ratings not made in 1995 due to dry weather in early spring which limited nitrogen uptake resulting in a general yellowing of plants which made ratings unreliable.
