Jaguar
Jaguar is a high-yielding variety with an
upright, short vine growth habit and
midseason maturity. It is resistant to
rust, anthracnose and mosaic virus and
possesses excellent canning quality.
YIELD PERFORMANCE
Jaguar was tested extensively for yield
and agronomic traits for five seasons
(1995-99) over 26 locations.
The yield of Jaguar, averaged over all
locations, was 26.6 cwt/acre and was
equivalent to the average yield of
Phantom and T-39. In the
absence of disease such as blight and
white mold, Jaguar produced yields in
excess of 43 cwt/acre and outyielded the
Raven parent by 12 percent (2.8
cwt/acre), averaged over eight locations. Under the narrow-row (20-inch) width,
Jaguar has topped the standard black bean
trial for the past three seasons (1997-99).
Jaguar is recommended for narrow-row
production (less than 28-inch row width)
- its narrow, erect plant profile appears to
be best suited to these row widths.
