The Behavior of Some Peach and Nectarine Cultivars to Powdery Mildew (Sphaerotheca Pannosa) In Albania

Abstract

The susceptibility to diseases is not considered as a key-criterion in peach breeding programs. Even if the turn-over of peach cultivars is important, suitability for organic and low-input systems remains unknown for most of the cultivars. A first program has been carried out from 2014 to 2016 to assess powdery mildew of 4 cultivars in an experimental station. Powdery mildew (Sphaerotheca pannosa) is a widely distributed pathogen in different parts of the world and one of the most important peach pathogens. Powdery mildew management was conducted during 2015 in experimental scheme with four (4) peach and nectarine cultivars in village Marikaj, Vorë, Albania. Experimental scheme is a randomized complete block with three repeat. nalysis of variance (ANOVA) on the assessment of the Index disease (Imc in%) for the four cultivars in the study for 2016 shows that the four cultivars Red Star, Venus, Roajal Black and Gomea have differences statistically to two levels of authentication P = 0.05 and 0.01. The data see the disease index Imc in% Union ranges from 16.331% Roajal Black cultivar and up to 30.77% Red Star cultivar. In terms of classification regarding the level of sustainability of these cultivars are MR (resistant) to the Powdery mildew (Sphaerotheca pannosa).
