Zusammenfassung:Hochelaga is an early and heavy crisphead lettuce highly tolerant to bolting under long-day growing conditions (more than 13-h). Hochelaga is the first variety released by the Horticultural Research and Development Centre (HRDC) lettuce breeding program of Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC), Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Quebec. Very similar in appearance to Ithaca, the regional standard, Hochelaga is well adapted to organic soils. Hochelaga is more tolerant than Ithaca to rib discoloration, a physiological disorder caused by high-temperature growing conditions. Key words: Lactuca sativa L., crisphead lettuce, rib discoloration, bolting, heat stress, organic soil
