Hallo Lucky,
thank you, your link has been very interesting for me because of the 
very informative resistance tables.
We should focus much more for better resistance...even for Juglans and 
other fruits!
let me just add a link, you know for sure, but which could be 
interesting for other growers:
National Clonal Germplasm Repository for Pecans and Hickories:
http://aggie-horticulture.tamu.edu/CARYA/
after that go e.g. to Pecan cultivar index:

ciao
Hans
