HYPOCOTYL: anthocyanin colouration present

LEAF: pointed ovate lateral leaflet

FLOWER: violet

POD: medium brown
SEED: yellow ground colour of testa
HILUM: black

Origin & Breeding History: 'P007A90R' is the result of the cross between propriety selections conducted in 2009 in Salinas, Puerto Rico. The modified single seed descent and pedigree methods of plant breeding were used to develop the variety. The F1 generation, grown near Salinas, Puerto Rico, was harvested in bulk and the F2 generation was grown near Salinas, Puerto Rico in 2010. In 2011, single F3 plant selections were made near Moorhead, Minnesota, USA followed by a progeny row yield test near Viluco, Chile in 2011. In 2012 and 2013, regional yield tests were done in Carman, Manitoba, Canada. Single plant purification took place in 2013 in Moorhead, Minnesota with individual plant rows harvested and advanced near Viluco, Chile. Wide area testing continued from 2014 to 2016 in the USA and Canada. Selection criteria included yield, maturity and resistance to glyphosate herbicides and to Phytophthora rot (Phytophthora megasperma f. sp. glycinea).

Tests & Trials: The comparative trial for 'P007A90R' conducted in Winkler, Manitoba during the 2017 growing season was planted in a RCB design and consisted of 3 replicates for each variety. Plots consisted of 2 rows, each 4 metres in length with a row spacing of 76 cm. Each plot was sown with approximately 125 to 150 seeds per replication. For each variety, the plant height was based on 30 measurements whereas the seed weight was based on 3 measurements. Mean differences were significant at the 5% probability level based on LSD values. Results were supported by the official technical examination report 201700256, purchased from the Plant Variety Protection Office in Beltsville, Maryland, USA.
