a

Pullman, WA and Central Ferry, WA. Bold environments had both the FN and spike-wetting test conducted whereas the other environments had either the FN or spike-wetting test conducted.

b

FN samples were harvested at harvest maturity (HM) whereas spike-wetting test samples were harvested at physiological maturity (PM).

c

Number (n) of accessions harvested and conducted in the FN and sprouting tests.

d

Technical (t) replicates used for each test and environment.

e

Mean and standard deviation (SD) were calculated; Sprouting scores from Day 5 are reported.
