Abstract excerpt
South American Leaf Blight (SALB), caused by the ascomycete Pseudocercospora ulei, is responsible for the low productivity of rubber trees in Latin America and is a serious threat to rubber plantations in Asia and Africa, where the rubber trees are derived from highly susceptible clones. Three contrasted genotypes were chosen for their levels of resistance to the pathogen: FX2784 (totally resistant), MDF180...
