  • Breeding Tomatoes for Resistance to Leaf Mould (Cladosporium fulvum) in Western Nigeria

  • F. A. Bliss, D. C. Arny
  • Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    03 October 2008, pp. 177-181

  • Seedling tests for reaction of tomato cultivars to leaf mould (Cladosporium fulvum) showed that a single race 1·3, or a mixture of races 1 and 3, was present at four sites in the Western State of Nigeria sampled at different times during 1967 and 1968. Vetomold, Vantage, Vinequeen, Astronaut, Floradel, and Tarran were immune and Purdue 135 was resistant. Genetic tests showed that the Cf2, gene conditioned immunity and that the Cf4 gene provided resistance.

  • Border Effects in Rice Experimental Plots I. Unplanted Borders

  • Kwanchai A. Gomez, S. K. De Datta
  • Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    03 October 2008, pp. 87-92

  • In experiments with transplanted rice, the first row next to the unplanted alley consistently gave significantly higher grain yields than the centre rows. The increase was progressively higher as the width of the unplanted alley between plots was increased up to 100 cm., but where the increase was very large, yields of the second outermost row were significantly decreased. No evidence was found that border effects reach beyond the second outermost row. Varieties that differed in tillering capacity, plant height, or both responded differently to the unplanted borders.

  • Effects of Pollination on Set and Growth of Summer Squash (Cucumis pepo) in Israel

  • D. Globerson
  • Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    03 October 2008, pp. 183-188

  • The effects of pollination on set and growth of summer squash var. Zucchini were investigated. In winter, parthenocarpic fruits developed and pollination had no effect, but in summer only pollinated fruits continued to grow. Partial pollination in summer caused ovary abortion of some fruits, and a reduced rate of fruit growth in those which continued to grow. The ovary was 8·8 cm. long at anthesis in winter but only 8·2 cm. long in summer.
