Revelation is believed to carry the Pch1 Rendezvous resistance gene to Eyespot but this has not been verified in RL tests. Revelation’s combination of stiff straw, excellent disease resistance and also slow apical development in the spring, make it suitable for sowing from early September onwards.
The latest safe sowing date for Revelation is the end of January.
