Product Overview

L 2049 E3 was tested for the first time in our 2020 Superstrip plots. In 2019 breeder plots, it showed very good performance against competitive checks and finished strong in a very difficult year. The plant is medium in height with a good amount of lateral branching. The defensive package is solid featuring SCN tolerance from PI 88788, the K-gene for Phytophthora, full Brown Stem Rot resistance and good scores for White Mold, Iron Chlorosis and Charcoal Rot.
