In spring 2010 the lines having superiority in the yield and oil percent comparing to the respected super elite controls were cultivated and their performance regarding the uniformity, presence of off-type plants and the line yield and oil content at the end of growing season were evaluated. As a result, 98 and 103 line from Master and Lakumka, respectively, were selected which their response to the downy mildew disease was evaluated.
