Description

MacArthur features a good combination of a strong mildew and Stemphylium package. It shows good vigor in cooler weather but tolerates heat well. Leaves are dark green with a slight savoy and an upright habit. The stems are long enough and thick enough to bunch and this is a high yielding variety for bunching or clipping. It has good uniformity and wide adaptability DMR 1-19 .

“The current seed lot of treated seed includes a 5% discount in pricing.  The reason is that 3% to 5% of the seed is missing resistance to mildew races 7, 8, IR10, 16 and 18. There is no detectable visual difference and the Stemphyillium resistance is in place.”
