Three pear cultivars were released by the U.S. Department of Agriculture in 1960 (2):
'Magness' (US 3866E = 'Giant Seckel' x 'Comice')
'Moonglow' (US 353 = 'Michigan 437' x 'King Karl')
'Dawn' (US 570 = 'Michigan 437' x 'Comice')
'Magness' and 'Moonglow' were introduced as resistant, and 'Dawn' as susceptible to the fire blight disease caused by Erwinia amylovora(Burr.) Winsl.
