EFFECT OF THE SCAB INOCULUM AND THE SUSCEPTIBLE PARENT ON RESISTANCE TO APPLE SCAB (VENTURIA-INAEQUALIS) IN THE PROGENIES OF CROSSES TO THESCAB RESISTANT CV FLORINA
M. Kellerhals et al., EFFECT OF THE SCAB INOCULUM AND THE SUSCEPTIBLE PARENT ON RESISTANCE TO APPLE SCAB (VENTURIA-INAEQUALIS) IN THE PROGENIES OF CROSSES TO THESCAB RESISTANT CV FLORINA, Agronomie, 13(7), 1993, pp. 631-636
Eight apple progenies all including the scab resistant cv 'Florina' as
male parent were inoculated in the glasshouse with scab inocula origi
nating from Angers and Wadenswil, respectively. The seedlings were ino
culated twice and classified according to the reaction type. The react
ions of the seedlings to the 2 inoculum sources tested were significan
tly different. Moreover, a clear effect of the susceptible parent on t
he resistance of the progeny was observed.
