Secure-BR combines high resistance to the pathogens that inhabit wet soils which include Aphanomyces root rot (Race 2) along the branch rooted feature. Its root system has been selected for a greater degree of the branched rooted trait. This trait helps keep more of the root system above the water table and better secures the plant in the ground when freezing and thawing occurs. The branchrooted trait will adjust as moisture stresses intensify.
