Optimizing Controlled Environment Assessment of Levels of Resistance to Yam Anthracnose Disease Using Tissue Culture-derived Whole Plants
2006-05-01
Abstract excerpt
Studies were conducted to determine the timing and frequency of disease assessment required to effectively identify levels of resistance to yam anthracnose using tissue culture-derived whole plant inoculation assay. The effects of inoculation methods (paint brush and spray), and disease scoring methods [individual leaf area (ILA) and whole plant area (WPA)] were also assessed. Spray inoculation resulted in rapid i...
