Seeds, Rootstocks & BreedingDoes a clean-looking mango tree prove that a seedling resists anthracnose?
A healthy appearance may reflect limited disease exposure, favorable weather, or management rather than inherited resistance. Compare material under documented conditions that allow meaningful disease assessment and include appropriate reference plants. Record the tissue assessed and disease severity instead of using a simple clean-or-dirty label. Promising field observations can guide specialist screening, but they should not become broad resistance claims without adequate testing.
