- Association Merkur seeds were significantly less infested by the broadbean seed beetle than Boxer and Laura seeds.
- Association The larval survival rate in Merkur seeds was similar to that in Laura seeds.
- Association The larval survival rate in Merkur seeds was higher than in Boxer seeds.
- Association The highest proportion of seeds damaged by the pest was found in the Merkur and Boxer yields, at 5–75% varying between years and trial locations.
- Association Merkur, evaluated from a practical point of view, does not differ from the other two varieties.
