NGX3305B2RF and NGX3306B2RF are early maturing varieties potentially adapted to the high and rolling plains of Texas, Oklahoma, and Kansas. Both offer very good storm tolerance and disease packages, including Verticillium and bacterial blight resistances, and both have improved fiber properties versus NG 3348 B2RF, NG 1511 B2RF, and DP 1044 B2RF. Limited commercial quantities will be available in 2014. We anticipate the commercial names to be chosen by the Beltwide Cotton Conference.
