Origin and Breeding<br />
Controlled pollination: MO4-0147 is a F7 line derived from a cross between 458 and<br />
Georgia Green in 2002 in Worth County, Georgia, USA. Georgia Green has moderate<br />
resistance to TSWV and broad adaptation to varied environments. 458 is a high<br />
yielding, high kernel %, high oleic variety. Crosses were made in 1997 and<br />
generations maintained by single seed decent to F5 generation. F5 single plants were<br />
selected for kernel yield, TSWV resistance, the high oleic character, kernel % and<br />
kernel size. Seed from high oleic single plants was planted in 2003. <strong>Plant</strong> selections<br />
were made in 2003 again for yield and disease resistance. All plants selected were<br />
tested and found to be high oleic. In 2004, the best plot from a single plant was<br />
selected and bulked for testing the following year in a replicated field trial. Field<br />
testing continued for 3 years. Breeder: Dr Kim Moore, Georgia, USA.<br />
