 1 = Coma - Separation of plants into 2 or more reaction classes. Segregation or seed mixture.      
     Dash - Range in reaction on each plant. Range in severity between plants but same 
 reaction class.
 
 2 = Natural inoculum. Readings made on flag leaf and flag leaf minus 1. Most entries were in 
 the soft dough stage of plant development.
 
 3 = Natural inoculum in addition to inoculations of race 15B.
 	Readings were made when most entries were in the soft dough stage of plant development.
 * Rust on neck and/or near nodes.
 NOTE: 1 - Late planting of spreader rows shortened the period for rust development.
       2 - High temperature in August forced plants to maturity. This may have affected the stem 
 rust severity on susceptible entries.
