Genetic resistance to white mold (Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Lib.) De Bary) in scarlet runner beans (Phaseolus coccineus L.)

Creator:

Gilmore, Barbara S.

Abstract:

White mold, caused by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Lib.) De Bary, is a destructive yield-limiting disease of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.). Genetic resistance to this pathogen is limited in common bean. Identification of high levels of partial physiological resistance in a genetically cross compatible species, Phaseolus coccineus, is advisable. The objectives...
