Inheritance of resistance in water yam (Dioscorea alata) to anthracnose (Colletotrichum gloeosporioides)
2001-07-01
Abstract excerpt
Colletotrichum gloeosporioides causes anthracnose, the most severe foliar disease of field-grown water yam (Dioscorea alata). The inheritance of resistance to a moderately virulent (FGS) strain of the pathogen was investigated in crosses between tetraploid D. alata genotypes: TDa 95/00328 (resistant)xTDa 95-310 (susceptible) (cross A), and TDa 85/00257 (resistant)xTDa 92-2 (susceptible) (cross B). Segregation of F...
