Evaluation of tomato germplasm for resistance to geminiviruses in Sanarate, GT: March 04 --  Evaluation of hybrid.

        

 

 

 XA12 F1  is a cross of G13h (L. hirsutum resistance) by G9c (L. chilense resistance) with DSI = 0.5.  Notice green shoulder, g+/-. Plants are essentially without symptoms.

M. Nakhla recently did dot blot hybridizations for this hybrid (XA12) and no begomoviral DNA was detected using a general coat protein probe.
