SL-003,
SL-008,
SL-009,
SL-010,
W11
Hybrid-1, W11 Hybrid-33, W11 Hybrid-35, W11
Hybrid-37, AVTOV-1007, AVTOV-1008 were observed for disease reaction. The control
varieties were BARI Tomato-3, BARI Tomato-5, BARI Tomato-11, BARI Tomato-14 &
BARI Tomato-15. None of the varieties were found to show complete resistance against leaf
curl disease. However, W11 Hybrid-37, AVTOV-1010 showed very low level of incidence. | en_US |
