* The Runner Types: Georgia Bold, Georgia Green, Flavor Runner 458, GK-7 High Oleic, SunOleic 97R, and Tamrun 96; and Virginia Types: Georgia Hi-O/L, Gregory, and VA-C 92R were planted in this experiment and dug on 09/17. They were eliminated due to excessive pod loss resulting from delayed combining, which was caused by wet field conditions after digging. The editors have elected not to include the yields from these six Runner types and three Virginia types because the results
