Summary

Incomplete resistance to Hemileia vastatrix Berk. et Br. has been studied in Brazil under field, greenhouse, nursery and laboratory conditions. The following coffee populations were studied: breeding lines and cultivars of C. arabica, and c. canephora cultivars Kouillou, Icatu andCatimor. Results are presented on methodology, on the effect of environment, on leaf age and productivity, on the inheritance of resistance and on host-pathogen interaction studies. Indications for incomplete vertical resistance were obtained for the Icatu and Kouillou populations. Incomplete resistance to coffee leaf rust is often expressed by heterogeneous reaction types. The relation of the results to resistance theories is briefly discussed.
