a Stewart's wilt reaction from previous disease nurseries (2).
b Stewart's wilt rating (1 to 9 scale) in inoculated sub-plots.
c Percent systemic infection = (systemically infected plants / total plants) x 100.
d Percent yield = (ear weight from inoculated sub-plots / ear weight from non-inoculated sub-plots) x 100.
e Hybrids not previously evaluated in disease nurseries. Reactions estimated from similar hybrids.
