Abstract excerpt
Sugar-beet powdery mildew, caused by the fungus Erysiphe betae, now occurs in all sugar-beet growing areas and can reduce sugar yield by up to 30%. Powdery mildew resistant plants from three novel sources were crossed with sugar beet to generate segregating populations. Evaluation of resistance was carried out in artificially inoculated field and controlled environment tests. The resistance level in two of the...
