Abstract
Cucumber cultivars resistant to Cladosporium cucumerinum, when inoculated with C. cucumerinum, were protected against disease from subsequent inoculation with Colletotrichum lagenarium. Cucumber plants susceptible to C. cucumerinum when inoculated with Colletotrichum lindemuthianum, were protected against disease from subsequent inoculation with C. cucumerinum, C. cucumerinum and C. lagenarium are pathogens of cucumber; C. lindemuthianum is a pathogen of bean. Effective mechanisms for disease resistance to a pathogen may exist in apparently susceptible cultivars.
