1. NC GEM Reports

2. Gem families are not designed to be
replacements for FR1064 or LH287.
They originate from breeding crosses
that greatly under-perform better
commercial hybrids.
They do represent an array of good,
totally new germplasm.

3. Some perform remarkably well,
but
their interactions with environments
are likely to be far greater than most
highly-selected lines.

on the 1 page handout.
Data on the front side is
yield data.
The back has some rust and GLS
scores plus older data for newly-
available families.
