All ratings are general. Different pathotypes, races, and biotypes of diseases and insects can cause ratings to change.
All ratings are based on Warner field screenings and university screenings.
HR = High Resistance, HT = Highly Tolerant, T = Tolerant, MT = Moderately Tolerant, S = Susceptible, 1 = Poor, 10 = Excellent
Management Notes:
W-614-W has excellent yield potential for maturity and plant height uniformity. This hybrid is a medium maturity hybrid with
white grain color and semi-open heads for excellent dry-down. W-614-W is a great choice for any production area where a
strong yielding hybrid with cream grain color is needed. |
