Abstract

Abstract No significant resistance to verticillium wilt (Verticillium dahliae Kleb) was found in 59 eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) accessions, in a sexual hybrid between S. melongena and S. integrifolium, or in eight somatic hybrid clones between S. melongena and S. sisymbriifolium. A relatively high degree of resistance was observed in accessions of S. aculeatissimum, S. scabrum, and S. sisymbriifolium. All 58 accessions of S. gilo tested were susceptible, as were all accessions of S. incanum, S. integrifolium, S. laciniatum, S. macrocarpum, S. mammosum, and S. nodiflorum.
