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

1 All entries are commercial seed obtained locally.
2 Root yields have been tared 5%.
3 Curly 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.
4 Entered in 1998 Rhizomania Variety Test.
5 Entered as a rhizoctonia resistant variety.
