Data from PGRO Descriptive List 2024 (1-9) A high rating indicates that the variety shows the character to a high degree. All varieties are semi-leafless. Downy mildew: Varietal resistance may vary in different regions as race structure of the disease changes. Pea wilt (Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. pisi) (race 1) R = Resistant; S = Susceptible. *Powdery mildew Trials & Breeders information - HR = High resitsance, MR = Moderate resistance, S = Susceptible. © PGRO 2023 27.11.2023
