Origin & Breeding History: '92Y31' (experimental designations 'PH08204' and 'XB23Q08') was derived from the cross NKX022/D08006 made in 2000 in Puerto Rico. '92Y31' is an F5-derived line which was advanced to the F5 generation by modified single-seed descent. The F5:F6 progeny row was grown in a plant row yield trial in Ontario in the summer of 2003. Subsequently, it has undergone 5 years of extensive testing and purification. It has been assigned a commercial number based on yield, Brown Stem Rot tolerance, Phytophthora resistance, and resistance to Roundup branded herbicides. In the summer of 2006, the purification block of 72 rows was grown in Ontario. In the winter of 2006/2007, 0.50 acre increase was grown in Chile. In the summer of 2007, 20 acres of parent seed stock were grown. In the summer of 2008, 302 acres of seed stock and production seed were grown.

Tests & Trials: Tests and Trials were conducted during the summer of 2009 in Ridgetown, Ontario. Plots consisted of 2 rows with a row length of 5m and a row spacing of 76 cm. There were 3 replicates. Results were supported by the official technical examnimation report 200900143 purchased from the Plant Variety Protection Office in the USA.
