Abstract

Four susceptible, two moderately resistant and two resistant opium poppy varieties to downy mildew (Peronospora arborescens) were used in a diaIleI analysis. The Fts along with the parents were tested under three sowing dates for downy mildew infection index. Both additive and nonadditive gene actionswere involved, the latterbeing more important. Interaction variances due to gca X dates were also significant. VO 185 and MOP 539 were good general combiners, while the cross ~BPGR 1 x VO 185 was a good specific cross combination.
