Narrative

Ky 15 was developed using a modified backcross procedure after the initial cross involving Ky 14 and Burley 49. Backcrosses were made to Ky 14, Burley 21, and Ky 10. Ky 15 was released in the F7 generation after the final backcross. The cultivar is highly resistant to TMV, wildfire, and black root rot. Ky 15 carries medium to high resistance to fusarium wilt, and it is classified as tolerant in reaction to tobacco etch and tobacco vein mottling viruses. (Collins et al. 1978. Crop Sci 18:694)
