Disease Abbreviations
Similar to how micronutrients play a key factor into the successful harvest of a crop, diseases and a variety's resistance to them play a critical role into the success of a production. Diseases can be minimized through a mixture of both chemical, agricultural best practices, and genetic resistance. PanDia Seeds strives to develop varieties that have outstanding resistance to the diseases present in a certain region. Please use the below table to note the abbreviations for these various diseases.
