  Algebraic variety - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Algebraic varieties are one of the central objects of study in classical (and to some extent, modern) algebraic geometry.
Basically, a variety is a scheme whose structure sheaf is a sheaf of K-algebras with the property that the rings R that occur above are all domains and are all finitely generated K-algebras, i.e., quotients of polynomial algebras by prime ideals.
A complete variety is a variety such that any map from an open subset of a nonsingular curve into it can be extended uniquely to the whole curve.

 List of grape varieties - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is a list of varieties of cultivated grapes, whether used for wine, or eating as a Table grape, fresh or dried (raisin, currant, sultana).
Hybrid grape varieties (see Hybrid grapes) or "hybrids" is, in fact, the popular term for a subset of what are properly known as hybrids, specifically crossings between one species of the genus vitis and another.
The scientific definition of a hybrid grape is any crossing (intra- or inter-specific) of two grape varieties.

 White mold (Sclerotinia stem rot)
The reaction of soybean varieties to the white mold pathogen is expressed as a percentage of the plant population which express symptoms, and the severity of symptoms within the symptomatic (diseased) plants.
Varieties of this reaction type may be needed if other traits are needed but not found in moderately resistant varieties.
Varieties of this reaction type can be considered for fields/management systems that are of moderate to low risk for white mold.

Varieties such as Dombito, Belmondo, Boa, Jumbo, Trend, and Trust are best adapted to areas west of the Cascade Mountains and varieties such as Perfecto and Capello to areas east of the Cascades.
Varieties (in the 6.5-7.5 ounces fruit range) that have been used in the Pacific Northwest are: Capello, Cobra, Laura, Trust and Trend (all uniform ripening); Caruso (semi-green shoulder) Dombito and Jumbo (green shoulder).
Some varieties may develop rough fruit in the first cluster after exposure to cold treatment, so always test the variety you are using before subjecting your whole crop to a cold treatment.

 SOY006 - Disease Resistance in Selected Soybean Varieties
Many varieties resistant solely to race 3 may also be resistant to race 1, but were developed in the midsouth and never evaluated for race 1 resistance.
Variety selection is the most important tactic to use against these nematodes and may aid in coping with nematode problems in rotational crop such as tobacco, vegetables and peanut that may be damaged by the high numbers of these nematodes that buildup on a susceptible soybean variety.
Corn and the certain soybean varieties are moderately to highly resistant to this parasite and resistant varieties should be considered as options, or in rotation, where reniform nematode is a problem.

 BEST INFORMATION FOR CHOOSING CROP VARIETIES
Variety choice for any crop is an important decision that affects profitability because of large differences in yield among varieties.
Planting two and three varieties chosen from the 3 location average resulted in yields of 6 and 5% above the test mean compared with 2% if the two or three varieties were chosen from a single location (or single farm) test results.
Using results from several locations to choose soybean varieties and corn hybrids results in choosing varieties and hybrids that generally yield higher next year than do those varieties and hybrids that are chosen from single farms or locations.

 UNODC - Bulletin on Narcotics - 1954 Issue 3 - 001
Broadly speaking, the many varieties of Indian opium poppy may be separated into two well-defined races by the colour and texture of the capsules.
The varieties are better than any of those ordinarily cultivated for withstanding hailstorms and high winds, because of their much reduced and narrowly segmented foliage of thick and dense texture.
It is now definitively proved that the first and second exudations from the lanced poppy head bring with them the bulk of morphine, and that it is possible to divide the whole produce of the crop into two parts, the first half for medical purposes and the second for Excise purposes.

 General Maturity Groups for Cotton Varieties (ACIS)
Classification of cotton varieties into one of these three categories is not necessarily straightforward in all cases.
It is important to note from Figure 1 that the total range from short to full season varieties only involves a span of about three weeks (600 heat units, HU 86/55° F), considering a common/optimum planting date, adequate boll load, and no growth-limiting stresses.
One of the common characteristics associated with a full season variety is its drop in yield potential with a delay in planting and an increase in its vegetative tendencies.

 NDSU Plant Varieties and the Canadian Market
Making plant varieties available to Canadian seedsmen and producers by granting exclusive marketing rights to a licensee is a recent undertaking for NDSU, but the controlled exchange of crop genetics, both germplasm and varieties, is a long-standing practice.
Furthermore, if licensing doesn't occur, NDSU plant varieties would still be able to move into Canada; however, without the control licensing agreements provide, there is a potential for seed proliferation, as Canadian seedsmen anticipate registration.
For example, a high-quality oat or soybean variety currently would be of less interest to Canadians than a scab-resistant wheat or barley variety.
