Fusarium Wilt of Cotton: Challenges Posed by the Emerging Virulent Isolates Threatening Cotton Production Worldwide |
|||
| The Fusarium wilt of cotton has gained increased importance in recent years with the emergence of extremely virulent strains of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. vasinfectum (Fov) in Australia, California, and mid-South states. This symposium addresses current research on the disease covering topics in molecular genetic classification of Fov races, the relationships among vegetative compatibility groups, phytotoxin production and virulence of Fov, Australian system for rating cultivar tolerance, and progress in breeding for tolerance to Fov. | |||
