Moullrie county. The Alhambra field in Madison county is managed by the Illinois Station. The Pope
county fields at Robbs are parts of the Dixon Springs Experiment Station of which R. J. WEBB is
superintendent and J. M. LEWIS is assistant superintendent.
Most of the hybrids selected for testing are extensively grown
in the state. Some experimental hybrids were included because they
had shown promise for commercial production in preliminary tests.
A few hybrids were put in the test mainly to meet the field-perform-
ance requirement for certification.
Open-pedigree hybrids from commercial seed producers were
entered in the 1947 test. The name of the producer of each lot of
open-pedigree hybrid seed is included in the tables.
Soil characteristics of fields. The test fields were medium to
high in productivity, and each represents a soil type common to the
region where it is located. Each field was selected carefully for
uniformity in soil type, productivity, and drainage. The Alhambra
field contained a number of "slick spots" and was the most variable
in productivity.
In 1947 the northern Illinois test was moved to McHenry
county. The other tests were conducted on the same farms as in
1946. The approximate locations of the test fields are shown on the
map on the inside front cover. General information on soil charac-
teristics and soil management is given in Table 2.
Field-plot design. A 9 x 9 randomized, lattice-square field-
plot design with 5 replications was used on the Woodstock, Gales-
burg, Sheldon, Sullivan, and Alhambra fields. Controlled, random-
ized block designs with 6 replications were used on the Dixon
Springs bottomland field and 5 on the upland field.
Method of planting. All test fields were planted by hand

of 2 rows 10 hills long, except at Alhambra where the plots were
only 9 hills long. Three kernels were dropped in each hill except on
the fields at Dixon Springs, where only 2 kernels were planted.

WEATHER CONDITIONS
In general, the 1947 planting season was another extremely late
and discouraging one thruout Illinois. The cool spring was so wet
that lowlands and low spots in fields were repeatedly flooded. Stands
were uneven and, since wet fields prevented timely cultivation, were
more weedy than usual.
Wet weather made the planting of test fields later than usual.
All fields except the Sheldon field were planted in good seedbeds
which had ample moisture and were planted under conditions favor-
able for growth. The test area on the Sheldon field was planted five
days after the rest of the field. A heavy rain which fell at sometime
during the five-day period made the originally excellent seedbed
very compact.
Good stands were obtained on the Woodstock, Galesburg, Sul-
livan, and Dixon Springs bottomland fields. Stands were variable
on the Sheldon, Alhambra, and Dixon Springs upland fields.
During June corn made good growth despite the cool, wet
weather. Corn suffered during late July and August from the ex-
cessive heat and drouth. Late-planted corn suffered, particularly
when its early growth was extremely rapid. Heat caused stunting
and firing; this condition wras more general in the southern half of
the state and the damage most serious there.
Serious fall damage from frost had threatened the late-planted
Illinois corn crop since planting time. The fall season, however, was
unusually warm, killing frosts generally holding off until early No-
vember. The exception was the extreme northern part of the state,
where a killing frost occurred during the last week of September.
The Woodstock field was in this area but the damage was slight.
Clear, warm weather during September and October hastened dry-
ing thruout the state. Practically all the corn matured without seri-
ous damage and the expected soft corn drying, handling, and
storage problems did not materialize.
INSECT PESTS
European corn borer. In northern Illinois in 1947, corn
losses from European corn borer, Pyransta nubilalis (Hbn. ), were
material. Hybrid test fields at Woodstock and Sheldon were in this
1948} ILLINOIS HYBRID CORN TESTS: 1947 529
area. Records of stalk breakage in these fields at harvest time are
shown in Table 5 (page 536) and Table 10 (page 543).
The percentage of plants broken below the ear because of
borer attack and the average breakage for the fields show that the
attack varied in intensity at the two fields. At Woodstock, plants
broken below the ear ranged from less than one percent to over 23
percent; the average was 8.4 percent. The difference necessary for
significance in hybrids is 8 percent (Table 5). Many hybrids appear
to be very similar in their response to borer attack. A three-year
average for 19 hybrids shows that 2.8 to 9.8 percent of the plants
were broken below the ear (Table 5). The difference between
hybrids in this three-year average is not significant.
The percentage of plants broken below the ear at Sheldon
range from less than 1 percent to 10.9 percent. In this field, having
little breakage, differences between hybrids in the test is not sig-
nificant. A three-year average of 26 entries shows that the percent-
age of plants broken below the ear ranged from 14.6 to 25.5. The
average for all entries was 19.7 percent. None is significantly better
than any other.
Southern corn rootworm. The hybrid test field at Galesburg
was attacked by corn rootworms, especially southern corn root-
worm, Diabrotica duodccimpimctata (F. ). The attack damaged
root systems and caused lodging, which was greatly increased by a
windstorm. Forty-five of the hybrids in the field showed better than
average resistance to lodging. Total lodging, however, ranged
widely — from 2.2 to 74.3 percent, the average being 33.6 percent
(Table 8, page 540). Because the windstorm caused a big differ-
ence between portions of the field, a difference of 33.6 percent is
necessary for significance (Table 8). Figures for lodging are avail-
able for the years 1943 and 1947; average figures for 22 hybrids
grown on this field during those years are given in Table 7 (page
539). Differences between hybrids included in these averages are
not significant.
530 BULLETIN No. 527 \February,
DISEASE DAMAGE1
Stalk rot diseases. From surveys in 37 scattered counties,
direct damage from stalk rot was estimated at 5 percent. In some
fields the stalks were badly broken, the breakage resulting in in-
direct losses since the pickers did not get all the ears. The amount
of damage varied a good deal from place to place. Of the stalks
examined, 33 percent were rotted by Diplodia zeae and 25 percent
by Gibberella zcac. In northern Illinois, Gibberella was more preva-
lent than Diplodia. In southern Illinois, 1.4 percent of the stalks
were damaged by charcoal rot. Fusariuiii uionilifonne, Nigrospora
oryzac, and other organisms also caused a moderate amount of
stalk rot.
Tho Diplodia has usually been the most serious cause of corn
stalk rot in Illinois, Gibberella was the most important cause in
1946 and of considerable importance in 1947. Some inbreds that are
resistant to Diplodia are not resistant to Gibberella and vice versa.
Root rot. Wet soil in the spring and compacted, poorly
aerated soil during the summer were very favorable to root rot
organisms. Roots were brown and plants were easily pulled up in
many fields. However, a specific estimate on the amount of damage
can not be made.
Smut. Loss from smut was estimated at only 0.5 percent.
Damage from this disease has been moderate since 1940, in which
year the loss was estimated at 4 percent.
Stewart's disease. This disease was observed especially in
canning corn in Iroquois and Vermilion counties and in nonresistant
garden varieties of sweet corn in central and south-central Illinois.
In late summer, leaf symptoms of Stewart's disease were very com-
mon on field corn except in the northern third of the state. This
infection in field corn apparently caused little direct damage, but it
may have increased stalk rot susceptibility.
Ear rots. Corn kernel damage from rot in the various per-
formance fields is given in Table 3. The dry weather of late sum-
mer and fall was not conducive to ear rot infection and the per-
centages are low, altho not so low as in 1946. The least ear rot
damage occurred at Sheldon, the most at Alhambra where the most

G. H. BOEWE of the Illinois State Natural History Survey.

lodging also occurred. In the last two years Fusarium moniliforme
was the chief cause of kernel damage by rot. Penicillium jumped up
to second place in 1947. At Dixon Springs Diplodia was not even
found. Ear rot losses were high in 1941 and since then we have had
more or less dry fall weather and low rot damage.
MEASURING PERFORMANCE
The entries in the 1947 test are listed in the tables in the order
of their total yields. Two or more entries having the same total yield
are given the same rating, but the one having the higher yield of
sound corn is placed first. Those having the same total yield and
sound yield are placed in order by percentage of erect plants.
Erect plants. The percentage of erect plants in each plot of
each entry on each field was estimated at the time of harvest. The
ratings for erect plants show how the percentage of erect plants for
each hybrid compared with the percentage of erect plants on the
field as a whole. (Each rating is obtained by dividing the percentage
of erect plants for that hybrid by the percentage of erect plants on
the field as a whole and multiplying by 100.)
Lodging may have been due to rootworm damage, weak or
rotted roots, corn borer damage, stalk rots, or weak stalks. Stalks
broken above the ear were not considered lodged.
Yield of grain. To determine shelling percentage, all the
532 BULLETIN No. 527 [February,
ears from one replicate of each entry were shelled. At Dixon
Springs, however, because it was not practicable to shell all the ears
in a replication, the shelling percentage of all entries wras assumed
to be 80 percent. A sample of shelled corn was taken from the
Dixon Springs plots by hand-shelling 6 ears of each entry in one
replication.
From the shelled corn one sample was taken to determine the
percentage of moisture at harvest1 and to determine the percentage
of damaged kernels. The percentage of damaged corn was deter-
mined according to the federal grain standards.
The total acre-yield was calculated as shelled corn containing
15.5 percent moisture, the upper limit allowable in No. 2 corn. The
total yield thus obtained was adjusted according to the procedure
outlined by Cochran for randomized lattice-square designs.2 The
total yield of sound corn was computed by deducting the amount
of damaged corn from the total yield.
Each hybrid's rating for sound yield, expressed in percentage,
is simply the ratio between the bushels of sound corn produced by
the hybrid and the average number of bushels of sound corn pro-
duced by all the entries on the field.
Height of ear. Notes on comparative height of ear were
taken at harvest time. Each plot of each entry was placed in one of
the five following categories: low, mid-low (midway between low
and medium), medium, mid-high (midway between medium and
high), and high. Beginning with low and continuing progressively
to high, these terms were assigned numerical values from 1 to 5 to
permit the averaging of the plots.
Significance of yield differences. Too much confidence must
not be placed in the particular ranking of a hybrid in the following
tables, for chance has played a part in determining its position.
Unaccountable variability in the soil and conditions on the field
will cause differences in yield that are not inherent in the hybrids
themselves.
The part played by chance in the 1947 tests has been calculated
for total yield by the mathematical procedure known as "analysis

of variance." At the bottom of each table is stated the approximate
difference which there must be between any two entries in order
for them to show a true inherent difference. Unless two hybrids
differ by at least this amount, there is no assurance that one hybrid
is inherently higher yielding than the other.
RESULTS OF TESTS
Detailed results of the tests on six regular test fields and the two
special soil-adaptation fields are given in Tables 4 to 14 on the fol-
lowing pages. See also Table 3 on page 531 on ear-rot damage.
Readers are urged to keep in mind these two things when
comparing the performance of hybrids on any one field:
1. Small differences in yield do not necessarily indi-
cate the superiority of one hybrid over another. See each
table for the amount one hybrid must exceed another
before it can be considered the better.
2. The Summary section of each table is the most
important part. At least three years' results are neces-
sary to give a reasonably reliable picture of a hybrid's
ability to perform under varying seasonal conditions.

SOIL ADAPTATION TEST
Hybrids were tested at Urbana for their adaptation to soils dif-
fering in fertility level. The same six single-cross and three double-
cross hybrids included in 1946 were used again.
Soils. The two areas used for the tests are on the Agronomy
south farm and differ in productivity as a result of long-continued
use of different cropping systems. In the Southwest rotation a high
state of productivity has been maintained by a systematic rotation
of corn, oats, clover hay, and wheat with a red-clover catch crop.
The South-Central area has been depleted of fertility by a rotation
of corn, corn, corn, and soybeans. Both fields have received manure
and phosphate. The predominating soil type on both fields is Sidell
silt loam.
Season. Wet weather delayed the planting of these fields
almost a month. The highly productive field was planted June 10
and the less productive, June 12. Lack of moisture and extreme heat
during the middle of the growing season made for lower than
average yields on both of these fields.
1947 results. The average yields of all hybrids in the test
were lower than in any previous year since 1936. The results dem-
onstrated the ability of certain single- and double-cross hybrids to
withstand adverse conditions. Single cross Hy X O7 and double
cross Illinois 972-1 were the two highest yielding entries on both
fields (Table 14). On the highly productive field, Illinois 972-1
was highest in yield. The three single crosses that include the
four inbred lines which are used in the production of Illinois 972-1
were next in order of yield.
On the medium productive field, Hy X O7 was highest in yield
followed by Illinois 972-1. In this test all the inbreds making up
Illinois 972-1, with the exception of L317, were in the single crosses
ranking at or near the top in yield.
On both fertility levels, the yield of early maturing single
crosses and early maturing double crosses was near the bottom.
Their 1947 performance agrees in this respect with their 1946 per-
formance. The lowest yielding entry on both fields was single cross
5120 X Hy. This hybrid was also the lowest yielding of the nine
in 1946.

Lodging was less severe on the highly productive soil than on
the medium productive field. Single crosses were superior to double
crosses in standability. Illinois 972-1 was the best of the double
crosses and WF9 X Hy, WF9 X 38-1 1, and Hy X O7 were the best
of the single crosses in percentage of erect plants.
SUMMARY
In 1947 two hundred ninety-five hybrids were tested on six
fields in Illinois. As in 1946 six single-cross and three double-cross
hybrids were grown at Urbana on two fields differing in produc-
tivity.
Because of wet weather, planting was late. The planting dates
ranged from May 24, when the fields at Galesburg and Sullivan
552 BULLETIN No. 527 [February,
were planted, to June 16, when corn went in on the bottomland
field at Dixon Springs. Stands on the Woodstock, Galesburg, Sul-
livan, and Dixon Springs bottomland fields were good; they were
variable on the Sheldon, Alhambra, and Dixon Springs upland
fields. Heat and drouth were severe enough to lower yields in the
northern, central, south-central, and southern portions of the state.
The weighted average yield of all hybrids in the tests was 56.7
bushels an acre. This is an average of 17.2 bushels an acre, or 43
percent, above the state average yield. But it is also 17 bushels an
acre less than the weighted average of all hybrids in the 1942-1946
tests.
The 1947 state average, 39.5 bushels an acre, was the lowest
since 1936, a pre-hybrid year. The state average for the last five
years was 50.6 bushels an acre, or 28 percent above the 1947
average.
Results of the 1947 hybrid corn tests were briefly as follows:
1. The Galesburg field in west north-central Illinois had the
highest average yield in the state, 73 bushels an acre. On the other
test fields the average yields per acre were: Sheldon, 71.1 bushels;
Sullivan, 63.8 bushels; Alhambra, 48.5 bushels; Woodstock, 42.3
bushels; Dixon Springs (bottomland), 41.7 bushels; and Dixon
Springs (upland), 34.0 bushels.
2. The five highest yielding hybrids in the three-year sum-
maries are as follows : Northern Illinois — Furr 67A, Sieben
S-450, Doubet D-l, Nichols 5A, and DeKalb 609: West North-
Central — Pioneer 339, Pioneer 304, Doubet D-72, Kelly K-374,
and Holmes Utility 39; East North-Central — Pioneer 313B,
Pioneer 304, Morton M-380, Frey 644, and Pioneer 332 ; South
Central — Doubet D-41, Bear OK-40, Producers 1050, Illinois
21, and Pioneer 313B; Southern — Whisnand 917(W), Illinois
200, U. S. 13, Funk G-80, and Pioneer 332; and Extreme
Southern — Whisnand 905(W), Keystone 106(W), Whisnand
917(W), P.A.G. 612(W), and Lowe 855(W).
3. Lodging was most severe on the Alhambra field, where
it amounted to 44.6 percent ( Table 1 ) . There was least lodging on
the South-Central field at Sullivan, where only 2.5 percent of the
plants were lodged.
4. Corn borer damage was most severe on the northern
Illinois field. Over 8 percent of the plants were broken below the
1948] ILLINOIS HYBRID CORN TESTS: 1947 553
ear at the point of corn borer injury. Hybrids varied in amount of
infestation, but in the three-year average the difference was not sig-
nificant between the hybrids on any field.
5. Corn on the Galesburg field was injured by the southern
corn root worm. Damage to the roots and strong wind caused con-
siderable lodging on this field.
6. Ear rot percentage was low on all the fields. Sheldon had
least kernel rot and Alhambra had most. The most prevalent fungus
on rot damaged kernels was Fusarium nioniliformc. Gibberclla zeae
was present in least amount. On the whole, stalk and root rots were
the most serious corn diseases in 1947.
7. The average yield of the nine hybrids grown at Urbana
on the field having high productivity was 73.5 bushels an acre. On
the less productive field, the same hybrids produced an average
yield of 42.6 bushels an acre.
8. On the high producing field, Illinois 972-1 was first in
yield and Hy X O7 ranked second. On the medium productive field
Hy X O7 was first and Illinois 972-1 was second. This 1947
performance, together with that of former years, indicates the
capacity of Illinois 972-1 and one of its component single crosses,
Hy X O7, to yield well under a wide diversity of climatic and soil
conditions.
Of the nine hybrids in this special test, single cross 5120 X Hy,
in 1947 as in 1946, gave the smallest yield.
