Effect of the bs1 gene in plantain-banana hybrids on response to black sigatoka
1997-08-01
Abstract excerpt
Use of resistant host genotypes is an important component of an integrated approach to control black sigatoka, a disease caused by the fungus Mycosphaerella fijiensis Morelet. The objective of the present research was to determine the role of the major gene for black sigatoka resistance (bs1) in the host response to this disease. Euploid hybrids with a known genotype for the bs1 locus were derived from triploid-di...
