Abstract:In support of breeding of papaya (Carica papaya) 'Caliman M5', 'GTF', and 'JS 11'. In the greenhouse experiment, the genotypes 'Caliman M5', 'Golden', 'Kapoho Solo', 'Waimanalo', 'Mamão Bené', 'JS 12', and 'GTF' had the lowest mean incidence in at least one evaluation. On the other hand, for severity, the genotypes 'Diva', 'Sunrise Solo 72/12', 'Kapoho Solo PA', 'Waimanalo', 'Maradol', 'Maradol GL', 'FMV, had the lowest means. These results indicate these genotypes for a possible use in breeding for reduction of powdery mildew intensity.
