White Papers

 

Each white paper explains what the disease is, the nature of resistance to the disease, how to work with strains or races of the pathogen causal agent, how to evaluate resistance and susceptibility to a pathogen strain or race in a seedling test and how to identify the pathogen strain or race in question. In addition, each white paper lists contacts for ordering seeds and reference pathogen strains or races.
