$7,630• Performance of runner varieties depended on location, but long-term averages across locations indicate advanced breeding lines ARSOK-R47A and ARSOK-R37 were the top performers, followed by cultivars Tamrun OL 11 and Lariat.
• Cultivar AT98-99 was consistently the highest yielder across locations and years, most likely due to the prostrate runner growth habit. No significant differences were seen between Spanish cultivars Ole and Tamnut OL06 across locations and over years.
• The new Virginia breeding line ARSOK-V377 out-yielded all other Virginia entries across locations in 2016. However, among those Virginia entries tested for at least four years, no significant differences were observed in yield or grade.
