Selection of potato callus for resistance to culture filtrates of Phytophthora infestans and regeneration of resistant plants

Summary

Dihaploid calli from Solanum tuberosum were selected, which were resistant to the culture filtrate of Phytophthora infestans. Each of the resistant calli was resistant to all four pathotypes of Phytophthora used in these experiments. The resistance was not lost through regeneration and the induction of new callus.
