Evaluation of tomato genotypes for bacterial wilt resistance in Nepal
Fourteen tomato genotypes obtained from the Asian Vegetable Research and Development Center (AVRDC), India and Nepal were screened for their reactions to a local isolate of Pseudomonas solanacearum in the greenhouse by artificial inoculation.

| Sammanfattning: | Fourteen tomato genotypes obtained from the Asian Vegetable Research and Development Center (AVRDC), India and Nepal were screened for their reactions to a local isolate of Pseudomonas solanacearum in the greenhouse by artificial inoculation. Of the 14 genotypes tested, four genotypes were rated susceptible; six moderately susceptible; three moderately resistant and one resistant. The resistant genotype Rampur Small had longer incubating period (9 days) than the susceptible genotypes (3 - 5 days). Similarly, the resistant genotype took more days to produce 10 percent wilted plants (23 days) than the susceptible genotypes (5 - 12 days). Rampur Small could be a possible source of resistance to bacterial wilt in this region of Nepal |
