A study was conducted to determine the inheritance of resistance to soybean rust in three soybean accessions-PI200492, Tainung 3 and Tainung 4. The results suggest that PI200492 and Tainung 3 contain the same single dominant gene for resistance, and that Tainung 4 contains two dominant genes for resistance, one of which is identical with that in PI200492 and Tainung 3.

The inheritance of resistance to oat crown rust was studied in three accessions of Avena sterilis L. Accession CAV 4274 originated from Morocco, CAV 4540 from Algeria, and CAV 3695 from Tunisia. Seedling rust tests on F2 backcross families indicated the presence of two dominant genes for crown rust resistance in CAV 4274. One of these, a gene conditioning resistance to most races tested, was linked or allelic to gene Pc-38, and was designated gene Pc-62. The second gene conferred resistance only to one of the six races studied, and was not tested further. In CAV 4540, a single dominant gene, Pc-63 was possibly allelic with Pc-62 and linked or allelic to Pc-38. Genes Pc-62 and 63 are generally similar to Pc-38 in their resistance spectrum, but these three genes are differentiated by races CR 102, CR 103, and CR 107. A single dominant gene in CAV 3695 appeared to be Pc-50.

Four barley varieties, each immune to a Valki-attacking culture of loose smut (designated as race 2), were studied with respect to the inheritance of their resistance. Jet (C.I. 967) and Nigrinudum (C.I. 2222) were each found to possess two independent dominant genes determining resistance. Steudelli (C.I. 2266) proved to be immune to race 2 through the action of a single dominant gene, while resistance of Hillsa (C.I. 1604) was found to be conditioned by two complementary dominant genes. The absence of susceptible F3 families in crosses between Jet, Nigrinudum, and Steudelli indicated that these three varieties have in common a gene or genes for resistance to the race of smut used. The two complementary genes for resistance in Hillsa proved to be distinct from those of the other three varieties under study.The use of genetic analyses of disease resistance based upon classification of F3 families of the backcross to the resistant source is described and the merits of such a method are discussed.

An accession of Lycopersicon pennellii, PI414773, was resistant to race 2 isolate 18947 and race 3 isolate 14844 of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici. Tomato cultivar Contender, which is homozygous for gene 1-2, was resistant to race 2 but susceptible to race 3 of the pathogen. Cultivar Rouge de Marmande was susceptible to both race 2 and race 3. The inheritance of resistances to race 2 and race 3 in PI414773 was investigated in test crosses involving parents Contender, Rouge de Marmande and PI414773. Segregation of the F2 of the crosses Rouge de Marmande x PI414773 and Contender x PI414773 revealed that resistance to race 2 in PI414773 was controlled by two independent dominant genes, one of which is allelic with gene I-2. Segregations in F2, backcrosses and inbred backcrosses derived from Contender x PI414773 indicated that a single dominant gene conferred resistance to race 3. The symbol I-3 was proposed for this gene.

The inheritance of reaction to single cultures of Ustilago nuda (Jens.) Rostr., Ustilago nigra Tapke, and Ustilago hordei (Pers.) Lagerh. was studied in the F1, F2 and F3 generations of crosses between the resistant barley variety Jet and the susceptible varieties Vantage and Plush. It was concluded that Jet has a single dominant gene for resistance of U. nuda and probably dominant genes for resistance of U. nigra and U. hordei. A close association was detected, in the segregating populations, between the reactions to U. nigra and U. hordei. No association was detected between resistance to U. nuda and resistance to the other two smut species. No associations were found between reaction to any of the three smut species and the genes responsible for the following marker characters: resistance vs. susceptibility to Puccinia graminis tritici Eriks. and Henn. (Tt), two- vs. six-row spike (Vv), naked vs. hulled kernel (Nn), black vs. white lemma and pericarp (Bb), and rough vs. smooth awn (Rr).

The inheritance of smut resistance in two introductions of Abyssinian origin, Abyssinian (C.I. 668) and an unnamed variety C.I. 5798, as well as a variety of unknown origin, Kitchin (C.I. 1296), was the subject of study.From the results it was concluded that resistance in each variety is governed by a single dominant gene and that this one gene is common to all three varieties. Moreover, the varieties Steudelli (C.I. 2266) and Jet (C.I. 967), which were shown from a previous study to possess one and two dominant genes for resistance respectively, were found to possess the same gene as the three resistant stocks under study.

The inheritance of resistance to Puccinia coronata, awn development, lemma pubescence, and lemma color were studied in the Avena sterilis accessions CAV 4248, CAV 4656, and CAV 4904. Three independent, partially dominant genes (Pc-64, Pc-65, Pc-66) in CAV 4248, one partially dominant gene (Pc-67) in CAV 4656, and a dominant gene (Pc-68) in CAV 4904 were identified which conferred resistance to P. coronata. Genes Pc-64, Pc-65, Pc-66, Pc-67, and Pc-68 conferred resistance to 13, 8, 6, 12, and 14 races, respectively, of the 14 races of P. coronata tested. Gene Pc-68 conferred resistance to all field isolates of P. coronata collected in Canada in 1981 and was found to be closely linked or allelic to gene Pc-46. Awns and lemma pubescence were inherited monogenically in crosses with all three CAV accessions. Grey lemma color was controlled by one gene in CAV 4248 and by two genes in CAV 4656. Brown lemma color was controlled by one gene, which was closely linked or pleiotropic with the gene for lemma pubescence in CAV 4904. There was no association between crown rust resistance and the three floret characters studied.

The inheritance of specific resistance (SR) and foliar abnormalities (FA) were studied in the F2 and F3 progeny of the following crosses; `PC-50' × Chichara 83-10, `PC-50' × `EZ Pick', A-10-2 × GN `Beryl', and A-10-2 × P114. A single dominant gene controlled SR to rust strain US85NP10-1 in `PC-50' × Chichara 83-10. Duplicate recessive genes determined foliar crippling (FC) in `PC-50' × Chichara 83-10 and A-10-2 × P114. The inheritance of hybrid plant abnormality in `PC-50' × `EZ Pick' and A-10-2 × GN `Beryl' differed from previously reported complementary dominant genes or duplicate recessive genes. Foliar variegation (FV) was controlled by duplicate recessive genes in `PC-50' × Chichara 83-10 and by triplicate recessive genes in `PC-50' × `EZ Pick', A-10-2 × GN `Beryl', and A-10-2 × P114. No associations were detected between SR and FC, SR and FV, or FC and FV.

The inheritance of resistance to mechanical damage in rice caused by sogata, Tagosodes orizicolus (Muir), was studied in cultivars with this resistance. Evaluation of F1 and F3 generations suggests that resistance to mechanical damage is controlled by a single dominant gene (A). This gene, present in cultivars Makalioka and Mudgo, is homozygous. The gene confers resistance, but its expression is modified by another gene (B). The action of the modifier gene is dependent on the genotype and the exposure to insect attack. For Mudgo, the modifier gene is in the homozygous form (bb), which accelerates the expression of the susceptible phenotype. In Makalioka, the dominant homozygous form (BB) retards the expression of susceptibility.

Inheritance of resistance to the fruit fly Dacus cucurbitae Coq., was studied in intervarietal crosses of watermelon Citrullus lanatus (Thunb.) Mansf. Two sources of resistance J 18-1 and J 56-1 were used. The resistance of watermelon to the fruit fly was controlled by a single dominant gene. The symbol Fwr has been proposed to denote the resistant gene.

Reciprocal crosses were made between `White Acre-BVR', resistant to blackeye cowpea mosaic virus (BICMV), and the susceptible `California Blackeye No. 5' cowpea [Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.]. Seedlings from `California Blackeye No. 5', `White Acre-BVR', F1, F2, and backcrosses were mechanically inoculated with BICMV, and evaluated 4 weeks later for symptom expression in the greenhouse. Plants were assayed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The resistance observed in the F1 and progeny from the backcross to the resistant parent indicated that resistance to BICMV in `White Acre-BVR' was dominant. Furthermore, a 1 resistant: 1 susceptible segregation of progeny from the backcross to the susceptible parent and a 3 resistant: 1 susceptible segregation of the F2 progenies suggested that the resistance to BICMV in `White Acre-BVR' was conferred by a single dominant gene.
