Note 1: CSU = Colorado State University,
Fox = Fox Bean of Idaho, Gentec = Gentec Seeds of Canada, ISB = Idaho
Seed Beans, MSU = Michigan State University, NDSU = North Dakota State
University, Novartis = Novartis Seeds of Idaho, Proctor = Red Beard Bean
of Colorado, Seminis = Seminis Seeds of Idaho, SUNY = Cornell University
of New York, UC = Univ. of California at Davis, UI = Univ. of Idaho, UN
= Univ. of Nebraska, USDA = USDA of Prosser Idaho.
Note 2: Growth Habit = V (vine), SU (semi-upright), U (upright), B (bush).
Suggested plant populations: V = 75 B 80000, SU = 80 B 85000, U = 85 B
90000, B = 90 B 100000/acre. Adjust fertility levels in relation to adjusted
plant populations for each growth habit; for example, a common suggestion
for low fertility soils for vine growth habits at 75000 plants is 75 lb
N + 40 lb P/acre.
Note 3: Maturity Classification = Days from planting to vine cutting in
our region; E (Early, 85-89 days), M (Medium, 90-94 days), F (Full Season,
95-99 days), L (Late, 100 or more days).
Note 4: Seed Quality observations from dry bean industry and/or university
personnel reflect the general appearance of seed of varieties that is
generally light enough for most markets (*) or which may exhibit premature
darkening and/or yellowing (**) during the 1st year after harvest.
Note 5: Disease Resistance as defined by the variety release statement,
and may range from immunity to tolerance to disease avoidance in our region:
BBS = Bacterial Brown Spot, BC1 = Bean Common Mosaic Virus B NY Strain,
BC2 = Bean Common Mosaic Virus B Type Strain, BY = Bean Yellow Mosaic
Virus B Pea Strain, CB = Common Bacterial Blight, CT = Curly Top Virus,
HB = Halo Blight, FR = Fusarium Root Rot, PY = Pythium, RU = Rust, WM
= White Mold.
