QuoteAre the problems really that bad?Yes.The Keitt/Gary and Kent/Gary crosses from Gary Zill’s project offer the most promise as far as late-season stuff is concerned. These will continue to be evaluated over the next few years.The problem the established late season cultivars have is they’re mostly purely descended from Haden and/or Brooks, and lack Julie or Saigon genes that appear to afford some level of resistance.
