Author: APS Citation
Abstract:
H. K. Bell, J. D. Downes and R. H.
Fulton, of Michigan Sitate University
have reported on extensive strawberry
variety trials carried on during the
years 1957 to 1959, They hoped to
find commercial varieties superior to
the present standard varieties, Robinson
and Premier.
Robinson, Premier
and Earlidawn were outstanding in
these tests.
However, since Earlidawn
is highly susceptible to Verticillium
wilt, it is not recommended for land
previously used for Verticillium susceptible
crops such as tomato and potato.
