Journal ArticleDOI
Regional variation in Brassica nigra and other weedy crucifers for disease reaction to Alternaria brassicicola and Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris
TL;DR: Evaluated Eurasian crucifer species for disease reaction to North American isolates of the crop pathogens A. brassicicola and X. campestris highlighted entries with promising levels of disease resistance and highlighted the potential value of weedy crucifer genetic resources.
Journal ArticleDOI
Two Types of Resistance to the Diamondback Moth (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae) in Cabbage
TL;DR: Resistance to P. xylostella in the lines investigated was due to at least two mechanisms, antibiosis or nonpreference due to extractable compounds present in normal bloom resistant cabbage genotypes, 2503 and 2535, and possible non Preference for glossy-leafed 2518 by neonate larvae, as suggested by the greater dispersal rates of neonates on these plants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of Resistance in Cabbage Varieties to Damage by Lepidoptera and Thysanoptera
TL;DR: In this article, differences in susceptibility to damage by Thrips tabaci Lindeman and the lepidopteran pest complex (Plutella xylostella (L.), Artogeia rapae (L), and Trichoplusia ni (Hubner)) were documented and analyzed for fresh market and experimental cabbage varieties.
Journal ArticleDOI
Selection for Resistance to Diamondback Moth (Plutella xylostella) in Cabbage
TL;DR: Inbreds and hybrid cabbage selected for resistance to diamondback moth were tested in the field in New York and Honduras and showed three distinct classes of susceptibility to DBM.
Journal ArticleDOI
Screening and identification of resistance to bacterial soft rot in Brassica rapa.
TL;DR: Mist-chamber, field, and detached leaf inoculation procedures identified plants resistant to bacterial soft rot in Brassica rapa and related species and G30444, G30449, and AVRDC2837 were identified as the most resistant materials in B. rapa.
