New Early-to Mid-Season Transgenic Varieties from Stoneville Pedigreed Seed Company

Lloyd L. McCall and Michael R. Robinson


 
ABSTRACT

Stoneville Pedigreed Seed Company is introducing the new variety ST 4691B for the 2000 planting season. It was derived through a backcrossing procedure to incorporate Monsanto's Bollgard® technology into the recurrent parent ST 474. The variety is very similar to the recurrent parent; however, ST 4691B appears to have improved micronaire. Comparisons in both Stoneville and public trials indicate that the variety performs as-well-as or better than the leading conventional and transgenic varieties.
