Abstract excerpt

To examine the genetic basis for the variable susceptibility of Striga hermonthica from differing zones of sub-Saharan Africa to Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. strigae (Fos) isolates Foxy-2 and FK3, 10 S. hermonthica populations from Eastern and Western Africa were phenotyped for their susceptibility response to Foxy-2 and FK3, and then genotyped with 22 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. There is low genetic...
