Inheritance and general combining ability studies of detached pod, leaf disc and natural field resistance to Phytophthora palmivora and Phytophthora megakarya in cacao (Theobroma cacao L.)

2012-11-01

Abstract excerpt

Black pod is a major disease of cocoa. Knowledge of the inheritance of resistance to black pod would be important in devising strategies to breed resistant varieties. The mode of inheritance of resistance to black pod disease was investigated using leaf disc, detached pod tests and natural field observation in a 6 × 4 factorial and 6 × 6 diallel mating designs analyzed using North Carolina design-II approach and G...
