Abstract: | Pathogenecity and race classification of some isolates of V. dahliae from resistant tomato in Morocco In Morocco, the cv. H 204, resistant to Verticillium dahliae race 1 is widely used under plastic tunnels. Use of this cultivar controlled the disease for many years but recently a high incidence of Verticillium on this hybird was obsereved. V. dahliae was isolated from 90 % of the wilted plants.The other 10 % were infected by F. oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici alone (7 %) or in association with V dabliae (3 %). The inoculation of the Verticillium susceptible cv. Vemone and of the race 1 resistant cv. H 204 by 120 isolates obtained from the resistant hybird, showed that (69 %) of the isolates are race 1 and 31 % are race 2. There are different virulence levels of V. dahliae race 2 both on the susceptible cv. Vemone and on the race 1 resistant cv. H 204. Race 2 on the average was less virulenton the susceptible than on the resistant cultivar. |
