+_While we have several high-yielding soybeans with great defensive packages, this Latham Ironclad is unique because its our only Group 2 Enlist E3 line that carries an excellent score for BOTH White Mold and Sudden Death. It also features the K-gene, very good Iron Chlorosis tolerance and is resistant to Brown Stem Rot. Its strong SCN tolerance comes from the PI 88788 gene. Terrific emergence and standability make this one a widely adapted line._
