Heritability of resistance and repeatability of clone reactions to sugarcane smut in Louisiana
1990-07-01
Abstract excerpt
Heritability of resistance to sugarcane smut caused by Ustilago scitaminea was estimated by comparing percentages of shoot smut infection of parents and offspring from 18 biparental crosses involving resistant, moderately susceptible, and highly susceptible clones. Frequencies of resistant offspring were highest in resistant X resistant crosses. Narrowsense heritability estimates, determined by mid-parent-offsprin...
