Abstract

Powdery mildew is a serious disease in pea cultivation. It is essential to plant resistant varieties in a commercial scale to produce pesticide-free vegetable. The trial evaluated seven pea varieties for resistance to powdery mildew in a randomized complete block design replicated four times. The plants were exposed to the disease under natural field infection and bombardment from infector rows. The experiment found one variety highly tolerant to the disease with zero infection under both disease exposures. The rest of the varieties were susceptible to powdery mildew infections with a DSI of between 79 and 98. The agronomic performance and characteristics of the resistant variety were presented and discussed .
