Question And Answers About How
To Get New Resistant Tobacco Seed
Which of the advanced lines
are being considered for release.
Four lines which are under ex
pensive test for the first time
this year, are being considered.
1. A new line resistant to
Granville Wilt. Many growers
will recognize it by its experi
mental number—8238.
2. A new line with high resist
ance to both Black Shank and
GranviUe wilt. The breeders’ de
signation is 8259.
3. A new line with a pedigree
similar to 8259 but only moderate
resistance to Black Shank and

Granville Wilt. This line has
been designated by breeders as
8213.
4. A new line resistant to Fus-
arium Wilt, designated by breed
ers as McCuUers 27.
Who will decide whether or not
these lines will be released?
The North Carolina Tobacco
Seed Committee wiU decide. This
committee is composed of agri-
cultuarl specialists representing
the State College Experiment Sta
tion and Extension Service, the
. S. Department of Agriculture,
the North Carolina Department
of Agriculture and the North
Carolina Crop Improvement As
sociation.
On what will the Committee
base its decision?
The decision will be based on
the perofrmante record of the
new lines in field trials. When the
plant breeder develops a line
which performs well, he appears
before the Committee and pre
sents his data. His records cover
such things as yielding ability,
resistance to disease, grade dis
tribution and chemical composi
tion of the cured, leaf. He discuss
es the pedigree of the line and its
characternstics, pointing out its
good points and its weaknesses.
If committee members are con
vinced that the new line shows
important improvements over
existing varieties for use by North
Carolina farmers, they approve it
for release and give it a variety
name.
When will the Committee act
on the proposed release of these
varieties?
At the next meeting of the
Tobacco Seed Committee, Decem
ber 12, 1949.
Why is it necessary to delay
release until then?
Because it will take until that
date to assemble data from the
1949 field and laboratory tests.
This task is being done as rapidly
as possible. At this moment, the
.1949 crop is being graded and
weighed, samples are being ana
lysed in the chemical laboratory
and other samples are being run
through rapid ^ng tests. If any

will be the name of the
new>Mieties?
The Tobacco Seed Committee
recently adopted a new system
for naming new varieties. The es
sential feature of the system is
that it employs a common variety
name, followed by a serial number
designating the principle distin
guishing characteristics of the
variety. “Dixie Bright” is the
variety name chosen. New var
ieties resistant to Black Shank
will be assigned numbers from 1
to 25.
Serial numbers assigned to
others are: Granville Wilt resist
ance, 26 to 50; Fusarium Wilt re
sistance, 51 to 75; others with re
sistance to a single disease, 76 to
100; combination resistance to
two diseases, 101 to 12'5; and ag
ronomic varieties, 400 to 425. The
numbers from 126 to 399 have not
been assigned.
For example the new Granville
Wilt resistant variety, if released,
will be called Dixie Bright 27.
The number system should help
growers and others to correctly
identify new varieties.
Where is the seed of these
new varieties coming from?
The Experiment Station pro
duced a small amount of seed of
each variety this year. When a
variety is released, the Station
will furnish a small amount of
foundation seed stock to the Foun
dation Seed Producers, Incorp
orated. This agency, in turn,
makes these stocks available to
Certified Seed Growers who pro
duce a seed crop the first season
and offer certified seed to farm
ers the second season.
Does that mean the average
farmer won’t be able to get any
seed this year if a variety ' he
wants is released?
No. The Station'' produced
enough seed this year so that if
the varieties proved satisfactory
for release, each farmer who is
in critical need of resistant var
ieties not now available could ob
tain a small amoimt a year earL
ier than would otherwise be pos
sible. This also makes it possible
for other farmers to try out the
new varieties on a limited scale
in 1950, a year before the seed
would be available through usual
seed channels. In most cases, the
amount of seed available to an
individual will be limited to %
ounce.
No new variety will be accept
ed unless the farmers like it. Be
fore a farmer can judge a new
variety he must become familiar
with its behavior, its adaptability
to his soil, its growth habits and
its curing characteristics. A new
line may show high disease re
sistance and perform well in ex
perimental plots, but this does not
mean that it will perform well
under on-the-farm conditions.
Therefore, the grower will be
wise to plant only a small acreage
to a new variety until he is con
vinced that it is better than the
variety he is accustomed to.
Are you sure there will be
enough to gb around, if the new
varieties are released?
If every tobacco grower in
North Carolina wanted seed,
there would not be enough to go
around. However, tobacco spec
ialists have made a survey of the
distribution of Granville Wilt,
Black Shank and Fusarium' Wilt.
They have been able to make a
fairly accurate estimate of the
