Blackhawk Arrowleaf Clover G. R. Smith, I. J. Pemberton and F. M. Rouquette, Jr. Texas A&M AgriLife Research Overton, Texas Blackhawk Arrowleaf Clover (Trifolium vesiculosum Savi) was developed through recurrent selection for tolerance to the fungal soil pathogen Pythium ultimum and for tolerance to Bean Yellow Mosaic Virus (BYMV). This new Arrowleaf Clover cultivar was developed in the Forage Legume Breeding Program at the Texas A&M AgriLife Research and Extension Center at Overton. The origin of this line traces back to dark-seeded half-sib lines from 1984 field selection nurseries planted to individual plants of the Arrowleaf cultivars Yuchi, Amclo and Meechee. Blackhawk seed are 95% black with only slight variation in degree of dark color. The black seedcoat of Blackhawk Arrowleaf has been associated with tolerance to Pythium ultimum in our trials and further research is in progress to determine the genetics of this seedcoat color trait.
