Prevariety germplasm of the tested class must be produced in a manner that ensures genetic purity and identity from:

2. Propagating materials from a class of prevariety germplasm that is designated as selected must be the progeny of phenotypically selected plants of untested parentage that indicate, but do not prove, genetic superiority or distinctive traits. Prevariety germplasm of the selected class must be produced in a manner that ensures genetic purity and identity from:

3. Propagating materials from a class of prevariety germplasm that is designated as source identified must have had no selection or testing of their parent population. Prevariety germplasm of the source identified class must be produced in a manner that ensures genetic purity and identity from:
