Recently University of Georgia pecan breeder Patrick Conner updated the recommended cultivars for Georgia, and developed a table listing the cultivars by scab resistance category and recommendation status. His table can be seen at http://sacs.cpes.peachnet.edu/pecan/ Scab percent20Resistance.htm. This table was a great idea, and the article and Conner's table are full of information you should pay attention to if you are planting pecan trees. Because the Alabama pecan industry has smaller growers, often without the equipment or economic incentive to spray intensively with large airblast sprayers, we have focused more here on pest-resistance.
