race 1 or 2 populations within the stems suggest that fungitoxic
materials within the xylem vessels of Bonny Best, Jefferson, and Marglobe
tomato cultivars initially kill a portion of the inoculum conidia....

grain yield and the components of yield were evaluated using five
winter wheat varieties sown at two dates. Within each planting date,
varieties were grown under four different combinations of two soil
treatments (fumigation and nonfumigation) and two foliar treatments...
