METHOD: Visual Examination CONDITIONS: Green House and Field METHOD NARR: Inoculations were performed both in the GH and in field trials. In the GH whole plants were inoculated. Seven week-old, plants were evaluated 7 days aftntensity of foliage blight was measured by assessing overall amount of necrosis per plant. In the field trials plants were inoculated by natural infection. Once symptoms appeared, the percentage of leaf area affected was e RESULTS NARR: All plants scored 5-9 were defined as resistant while lower scores were considered susceptible. Chc showed a high frequency of resistant genotypes in both GH and Field. Results of individual accessions not pre: Accession specificity is a relevant factor in screening for horizontal resistance.
