If the data is not convincing, the variety the stability test, raising the next generation, or testing new plant material, which has the same characteristics as observed in plant material delivered previously. IV. the grouping of varieties and variety verification field out of 17 Tested variety groups. to: 17.1. evaluation of distinctness easier;
17.2. select varieties which are excluded from the examination of the variety trials;
17.3. organize field trials so that similar varieties are located together. 18. the group is suitable for a variety of features which meet the following criteria: 18.1. hallmark varieties limits does not change;
18.2. signs of the degree of expression is documented (also seen in different locations), and can be used alone or in combination with other relevant characteristics of the variety. 19. the group uses the following varieties: 19.1. Flower: type (annex 2);
19.2. vainaglap: the border area inside the flower color (2.12;)
19.3. a thriving website: page plates (2.16;)
