Clubroot won’t quit, neither will we.
Since InVigor® hybrid canola launched its clubroot-resistant hybrids, they’ve been seeded on over 28 million acres across Canada. For 2023, growers can choose from eleven InVigor clubroot-resistant hybrids – two of which contain second-generation clubroot resistance.
Generations of solutions.
All InVigor clubroot-resistant hybrids have been developed to be resistant to the most predominant clubroot pathotypes found in Canada at the time of their registration.
InVigor L350PC, InVigor Choice LR354PC, InVigor Health L359HPC, InVigor L356PC, InVigor L340PC, InVigor L345PC, InVigor L255PC, InVigor L241C and InVigor Health L258HPC share the same first-generation clubroot resistance profile. InVigor L343PC and InVigor L234PC have this resistance profile, plus they contain second-generation multigenic clubroot resistance to additional clubroot pathotypes to help combat evolving clubroot pathogens.

Integrated pest management practices for clubroot.
Sustainability of the Canadian canola industry is as important to us as it is to you. Together, we can work to minimize the impact of clubroot with an integrated pest management (IPM) strategy that includes:
- Extend canola rotation to a minimum of once every three years when possible
- Using sanitation and patch management to limit the movement of infected soil
- Control volunteer canola and other brassica weeds that can act as hosts for the disease
- Routinely observe the root system of canola plants in all your fields for the presence of galls and clubbed roots
- Utilize clubroot-resistant genetics as part of an IPM strategy
