Evaluation location: Idaho, United States
Plots were visually evaluated and rated on a Disease Index (DI) scale of 0 to 9 (no symptoms to dead) on 27 Aug and 16 Sep. An analysis of variance (PROC ANOVA - SAS) on the disease indices (visual evaluation scores) determined that there were no significant differences (P=0.05)among entries on both dates. Infection was milder and less uniform than in some years, and two replications were inadequate to separate differences among lines. There were, however, a number of accessions that performed very poorly, with a DI of 6 or greater.
