Abstract

Abstract Resistance in Pisum sativum to Aphanomyces euteiches was evaluated in the laboratory by the number of oospores formed in excised root tips inoculated with zoospores of the pathogen. Significantly lower mean numbers of oospores formed in root tips of 3 moderately resistant breeding lines than in those of 3 susceptible cultivars. Results were reproduceable if test procedures were adequately controlled. A sample size of 40 root tips gave 95% confidence in detecting a 40 oospore/root tip difference between means of resistant and susceptible genotypes. Lower mean numbers of oospores formed in excised root tips of genotypes which were resistant in greenhouse tests. Inoculum concentrations of 10 to 100 zoospores/plant caused severe disease in susceptible cv. New Era, while greater amounts of inoculum were needed to cause comparable disease in 2 resistant breeding lines.
