| dc.description.abstract | Distribution of Fusarium wilt of muskmelon and watermelon in southwestern Ontario was studied. Particular attention was paid to morphological and physiological variations of the isolates obtained. Morphological variations were based on comparison in culture with a selected standard. Physiological variations were detected by pathogenicity experiments, and a study of assimilation of various carbon and nitrogen compounds. Some further aspects of the biology of the organisms were investigated. An experiment was carried out, employing several muskmelons and watermelon varieties, to compare their resistance under field conditions. | en_US |
