Summary
The highest level of resistance to Corynebacterium michiganense was found in ‘Irat L3’ and ‘Okitsu Sozai 1–20’. Resistance was partial and symptomless plants proved to be carriers of the disease. The resistance is at least partially based on a diminished multiplication of the pathogen in the host plant.
