Inheritance of the resistance to powdery mildew in a RIL population derived from the cross Xana/Cornell49242
Powdery mildew is a devastating disease of common bean in northern Spain, particularly in the market class fabada. Its incidence is increasing in recent years. Control with fungicides is possible but uneconomic, what reinforce the need of powdery mildew resistant cultivars . Some sources of resistance to this pathogen have been identified (Schwartz et al, 1981) but there is little knowledge on inheritance of such resistance. Previous reports suggest a qualitative inheritance (Dundas, 1936; Bett and Michaels, 1995; Rezende et al., 1999). In this preliminary work, we investigate the inheritance of the resistance to powdery mildew in a RIL population derived from the cross Xana/Cornell 49242.
