  Product information is based on data from the CIMMYT East Africa 2020 Regional Trial (CIM20EAPP3) and 2021 regional on-farm trials (EA-ROFT 2021-1A). Actual performance will vary depending on a number of agronomic and environmental factors. 

Abbreviations:
AI = artificial infestation/inoculation
GDD = growing degree-days (°C)
GLS = Grey Leaf Spot
Low N = managed low nitrogen stress
masl = meters above sea level
nat. = natural infestation
opt. = optimum (44,444 plants per ha)
RS = random stress
SC = single-cross
TLB = Turcicum Leaf Blight
