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.
