Evaluation of Spinach Cultivars for Downy Mildew Resistance in San Juan Bautista, CA, 2023
A field evaluation of resistance to the downy mildew pathogen of spinach ( Peronospora effusa) was conducted in San Juan Bautista, CA, in 2023. Disease development was due to naturally occurring inoculum. The disease incidence was recorded 46 days after the wet-date for 70 cultivars. The disease incidence varied considerably among the cultivars tested, and the range was 0.0 to 100.0% infected leaves.
