1. Yields calculated at 56 pounds per bushel at 13.0% moisture.
2. Tifton.
3. Griffin.
4. The F-test indicated no statistical difference at the alpha = 0.10 probability level; therefore, a LSD value was not calculated.
Bolding indicates entries yielding equal to highest yielding entry within a column based on Fisher's protected LSD (P = 0.10).
