RG405RR RG405RR offers great yields in a slightly taller bean that is easy to harvest. RG405RR does not provide great tolerance to IDC so it should not be planted where chlorosis is a major problem. RG405RR does have great root rot tolerance and can, and has, yielded very well when in areas where IDC is not a major concern.
