It is very hard to get 100% pure seed out of seed production. It's just the way genetics work. Not much that can be done. You take a parent w/ 0% RR trait and cross with 100% parent you get a 50% offspring. Take the 50% and cross with the 100% and you keep getting closeer to 100% offsrping, but will never get there because it takes to many generations. The only way you can get a pure offspring is through Dihaploid breeding.
