Abstract
Tomato seedlings were grown in speedling trays and inoculated with a zoospore suspension at the 1st-leaf stage. Percent stand and root rot severity 7 days after inoculation was used to compare genotypes. The amount of seedling resistance was positively correlated with the degree of Phytophthora [P. capsici or P. parasitica] root rot in the field.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
