Medicago sativa

Triumph HVXRR
Triumph HVXRR provides high resistance (HR) to all six major alfalfa diseases including bacterial, fusarium, and verticillium wilt, Phytopthora root rot, anthracnose, and Aphanomyces Root Rot, enhanced multi-race protection against Aphanomyces. Plants also demonstrate resistance to pea aphid, spotted alfalfa aphid, and stem nematode. With high multifoliate leaf expression (41 - 75%) it has excellent forage yield and quality. A reduced lignin content means the alfalfa has greater cell wall digestibility and greater feeding value than conventional varieties. Triumph HVXRR has a 4.4 fall dormancy 7 days to flowering.
