Abstract

Mycosphaerella pinodes is one of the most devastating pea pathogens. Pea cultivars with adequate levels of resistance to control the disease are not so far available. However, promising levels of resistance have been identified in wild accessions of pea. In the present investigation the inheritance of resistance to M. pinodes was studied in two crosses between the susceptible pea cv. ‘Ballet’ and the partially wild resistant accessions P665 (Pisum sativum subsp. syriacum) and P42 (P. sativum subsp. sativum var. arvense). Both additive and dominant effects were important in control of resistance and susceptibility dominated over resistance.
