A synthetic variety developed from 13 clones. Performs better than the one-line strains in terms of seed productivity, seedling vigor and germination. Taller, more uniform and achieves greater basal density than the original parents. (Released 1983, source of ecotype: Idaho)
A synthetic variety developed from 90 clones. High seed producer with good seedling vigor and germination. More variability in plant type than Joseph. (Released 1983, source of ecotype: Idaho and Washington)
A non-synthetic, source identified variety type. Displays a high degree of variability in its characteristics, making it adaptable to various ecological situations. (Released 1998, source of ecotype: Lewis County, ID, Winchester)
