METHOD: Reproductive Efficiency CONDITIONS: Green House - 24C METHOD NARR: The object of the test was to determine reproductive efficiency through egg counts. When rooted cuttings were transplanted to pots, an aliquot containinggs was pipetted into the soil. Plants were allowed to grow for 55 days before harvest. A reproductive efficiency value was determined using egg counts. Crosses were made and F1 hybrids evaluated. RESULTS NARR: There wasaccessions. PI 161726 was resistant to M. chitwoodi growth for both races and used to produce hybrid progeny with tbr. AUTHOR EXPLANATION: Resistance to race 1 is not correlated with resistance to race 2 in inheritance tests.
