When comparing yields or sugars of two varieties, the values must differ by a value equal to or greater than the
given at the bottom of each column. If they do not, then they were probably not different in this test.

1Locations: 1997: Aberdeen, Idaho; Minidoka County, Idaho; Malheur Experiment Station, Ontario, Oregon.
                 1998: Aberdeen, Idaho; Cassia County, Idaho; Malheur Experiment Station, Ontario, Oregon.
2All entries are commercial seed obtained locally.
3Root yields have been tared 5%.
4Curly Top Ratings: 0 = no curly top symptoms; 9 = plants killed. To calculate and compare the average curly
  top resistance of two or more varieties, use only those years data in which the compared varieties all have ratings.
5Entered in 1998 Rhizomania Variety Test.
