Popis: | Twenty-five melon (Cucumis melo L.) cultigens were screened for resistance to fusarium wilt in a field infested with race 1 and race 2 of Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. melonis in 1993 and 1994. Plants were grown on clear plastic mulch using commercial production recommendations. The soil was fumigated with methyl isothiocyanate at a broadcast rate of 340 liters·ha–1 in 1993, and with dichloropropene at a broadcast rate of 136 liters·ha–1 in 1994. Resistance was determined by the percentage of plants surviving 8 weeks after transplanting. In general, highly resistant cultigens (>90% survival) and highly susceptible cultigens ( |
