1  Planted April 13, 2000; irrigated April 17; handline sprinkler irrigated.  Plots were single
   row, 25 feet long. Data at each location are the means of four replications, 100 seed /
   replication.
2  Three locations:  Aberdeen R & E Center; Cassia County; Jerome County
3  Percentage doubles were determined using four replications of 100 seed each replication
    in the University of Idaho laboratory germination tests.  The same seedlots were
    subsampled for the field and laboratory tests.
When comparing 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.
