Extract

Natural infection by Verticillium albo-atrum occurred in two experiments, one comparing test crosses of inbred parents, the other a complete set of crosses between non-inbred parents. Although the uncontrolled variation was rather large, significant differences between progenies were detected in both cases. The differences were mainly accounted for by differences in general combining ability among the parents but not entirely so in the second experiment.
