Development of a promising interspecific hybrid in black pepper (Piper nigrum L.) for Phytophthora foot rot resistance
2008-06-01
Abstract excerpt
For the first time in the history of black pepper cultivation, a partly fertile interspecific hybrid having partial resistance to the dreaded disease Phytophthora foot rot was developed through hybridizing Piper nigrum with the wild species Piper colubrinnum. Hybridity of interspecific progenies was established through morphology, anatomy, cytology, and molecular studies. The hybrid, whose chromosome number is 2n...
