First Report Of Phytophthora Insolita And P. Inflata On Rhododendron In Ohio, Antonino Testa, Mikael Schilb, Jeffery S. Lehman, Gennaro Cristinzio, Pierluigi Bonello

Biology and Earth Science Faculty Scholarship

During August 2003, we conducted a statewide survey of rhododendrons to determine if Phytophthora ramorum was present in Ohio ornamental nurseries. In total, 240 samples were randomly collected in 12 nurseries throughout Ohio from rhododendrons showing foliar necrotic lesions and twig dieback symptoms.


Relationship Among Genes Conferring Partial Resistance To Leaf Rust (Puccinia Triticina) In Wheat Lines Ci 13227 And L-574-1., Jeffery S. Lehman, Karin A. Hanson, Gregory Shaner Feb 2005

Relationship Among Genes Conferring Partial Resistance To Leaf Rust (Puccinia Triticina) In Wheat Lines Ci 13227 And L-574-1., Jeffery S. Lehman, Karin A. Hanson, Gregory Shaner

Biology and Earth Science Faculty Scholarship

This study describes the segregation of genes for resistance to the fungus Puccinia triticinain a cross between partially resistant wheat lines L-574-1 and CI 13227 with two and four genes for resistance, respectively. The objectives of this study were to use parental, F1, F2, and backcross populations to quantify maternal effects, degree of dominance, and transgressive segregation, and to determine whether CI 13227 and L-574-1 share any resistance genes for long latent period or small uredinia. In two experiments conducted in the greenhouse, the uppermost leaf of adult wheat plants was inoculated prior to heading with P. triticina. On days …
