Mechanisms associated with the tr allele contributing to reduced smut susceptibility of pearl millet
1995-09-01
Abstract excerpt
The tr allele in pearl millet confers trichomeless plant structures. Plants homozygous for the allele have reduced severities of smut, caused by Moesziomyces penicillariae, compared to plants with the Tr genotype. Experiments were conducted to determine the mechanisms conferring reduced susceptibility in trtr inbreds. Flag leaf sheaths of field-grown Tift 23DAS (trtr) were wrapped around unemerged panicles more ti...
