Abstract
Several cultivars were found to have significantly less head smut than the commercial standards, Jubilee and Bonanza. Among the most highly resistant were Goldenrod, NCX 235, Silver Queen, 70–2367, 67–2750, E 1502 and 70–2021. NCX 243 would probably have greater commercial acceptance than the above cultivars but it was somewhat higher in susceptibility to head smut.
