Comparing Efficiencies of Two Selection Approaches for Improving Fusarium Basal Rot Resistance in Short-Day Onion after a Single Cycle of Selection

Comparing Efficiencies of Two Selection Approaches for Improving Fusarium Basal Rot Resistance in Short-Day Onion after a Single Cycle of Selection

The development of Fusarium Basal Rot (FBR)-resistant onion cultivars through field and seedling screening approaches faces tremendous challenges due to non-uniform distribution of the disease pathogen and possible multiple mechanisms of host–plant resistance. This study compared the efficiencies of...
