Narrative
Dormant with fall dormancy similar to the FD3 check. High resistance to bacterial wilt, fusarium wilt, verticillium wilt, and anthracnose (Race 1). Resistant to phytophthora root rot, and is susceptible to aphanomyces root rot (Race 1) (Aphanomyces euteiches), and spotted alfalfa aphid (Therioaphis maculata). In NY, averaged 0.65 Mg ha-1 per year more dry forage than Oneida VR and 0.99 Mg ha-1 more than Vernal in three production years. Forage quality (acid detergent fiber, neutral detergent fiber, and relative feed value) is between that of the high- and low-quality check cultivars WL 322 HQ and Vernal, respectively. Flower color of the Syn. 2 generation is 80% purple, 19% variegated, 1% cream, and a trace of yellow and white.
