Resistance to race 0 of black shank (Phytophthora parasitica var. Nicotianae) derived from Nicotians longiflora Cav. and transferred to the burley tobacco breeding line L8 appears to be conditioned by a single dominant gene. However, on the basis of expected ratios for a single dominant gene, a deficiency of resistant progeny was observed in the F2 and backcross generations. Haploid plants extracted from F1 individuals heterozygous for black shank resistance substantiated the deficiency in the resistance class. The haploid segregation with reduced recovery of the resistant genotype rules out preferential pollination as the cause for the altered ratios. The mechanism responsible for impaired function of the gamete carrying the allele for resistance is not known.

Yellowing of melon (Cucumis melo L.) incited by lettuce infectious yellows virus (LIYV) reduces yield and fruit quality of infected plants. LIYV is transmitted only by the sweetpotato whitefly (Bemisia tabaci Genn.). Two naturally infected field tests indicated several potential sources of resistance to LIYV. PI 124112 and `Snake Melon' had mild symptoms in both field tests whereas PI 313970 was asymptomatic in the test in which it was included. In greenhouse tests using controlled inoculation, PI 313970 was asymptomatic, had negative ELISA assays for LIYV, and was negative for LIYV in serial transfers to Chenopodium. `Top Mark' and `PMR 5' were symptomatic, had positive ELISA assays for LIYV, and were positive for LIYV in serial transfers to Chenopodium in these greenhouse tests. Limited data indicate that resistance in PI 313970 is conditioned by a single, dominant gene.
