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.
    Locations:  Aberdeen, Idaho; Jerome County, Idaho; and  Ontario, Oregon.
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 1999 rhizomania variety test.
