PhytoGen cotton varieties PHY 370 WR and PHY 485 WRF have performed consistently well from Texas through Virginia. Relative performance in different soil types, geographies, and water management systems will be presented based on results of university official variety trials, county trials, PhytoGen strip trials, and PhytoGen small plot replicated trials. High yield potential and very good fiber quality will be validated across a broad range of geographies and conditions when compared to other market leading varieties.
