Evaluation of tomato germplasm for resistance to geminiviruses in Sanarate, GT

         Luis Mejia, Universidad de San Carlos, Project leader

Commercial tomato hybrids commonly grown in Guatemala are susceptible to geminiviruses.  For this field plot in Sanarate, GT, both Elios and Marina had 100% incidence at 30 days after transplanting. 

  Elios, commercial hybrid, March 03, 85 days after transplanting.

  H13 = Marina, commercial hybrid, Mid-March 03, 70 days after transplanting.
