Abstract excerpt
With 1 figure and 5 tables ABSTRACT: Understanding the relationship between plant morphology and disease resistance is crucial to successful lettuce breeding. Latin type cultivars are a potential useful source of resistance to Sclerotinia minor for breeding resistant romaine cultivars. However, resistance in Latin cultivars may be conditioned by their relatively short stature. The objective of this research was to...
