Description
The third of the 2020 Rutgers four, named for a New Jersey county.
The sources consulted give it the same parentage as ‘Monmouth’ — ‘Sacajawea’ crossed with OSU 616.055 — which would make the two full siblings selected out of one cross. That is ordinary in breeding and the record is left as the sources state it, but it is the kind of line worth confirming against the patent text before it is repeated as pedigree.
