    Inheritance of resistance to pachymetra root rot : SRDC final report BS27S
    (BSES, 1994) Croft, BJ; Berding, N

Pachymetra root rot is a serious disease in Queensland and can cause losses of 30-40% in susceptible varieties. An understanding of the mode of inheritance of resistance is important in developing breeding strategies.
