-The objective of this work was to evaluate the broad-sense heritability reaction to bacterial leaf spot (Xanthomonas arboricola pv. pruni), in peach tree populations obtained from directed crosses. Disease severity and defoliation of the genotypes were evaluated in field conditions, with posterior measurement of the healthy leaf area duration (HAD). The observed average heritability (0.51) indicates that the use of the evaluated genitors can be effective for the development of cultivars with higher resistance to the disease.Index terms: Prunus persica, Xanthomonas arboricola pv. pruni, cultivar development, healthy area duration. Herdabilidade de resistência de pessegueiro à bacteriose foliarResumo -O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a herdabilidade no sentido amplo da reação à bacteriose foliar (Xanthomonas arboricola pv. pruni), em populações de pessegueiro obtidas de cruzamentos dirigidos. A severidade da doença e a desfolha dos genótipos foram avaliadas em campo, com posterior mensuração da duração da área foliar sadia (HAD). A herdabilidade média observada (0,51) indica que a utilização dos genitores avaliados pode ser efetiva para o desenvolvimento de cultivares com maior resistência à doença.Termos para indexação: Prunus persica, Xanthomonas arboricola pv. pruni, desenvolvimento de cultivares, duração da área foliar sadia.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
