ABSTRACT

‘FreedomMR’ red clover (Trifolium pratense L. 69-L-38-1921, Reg. No. CV-29, PI 651017) was developed by the Kentucky Agricultural Experiment Station and released in 2006. It was selected for mildew resistance (caused by Erysiphe polygoni DC em Salm.) from ‘Freedom!’. FreedomMR, like Freedom!, has reduced pubescence (nonglandular hairs). FreedomMR is a medium red clover cultivar adapted to Kentucky and the central clover region of the United States. It is especially recommended for hay because it less dusty than ‘Kenland’ and more mildew resistant than Freedom! or Kenland.
