Seeds, Rootstocks & BreedingHow should mango disease screening handle a season with almost no disease in the reference trees?
Report the low exposure and avoid ranking clean candidates as proven resistant. If the reference material also remained healthy, the season may offer little discrimination. Retain other useful growth and fruit records, then arrange further assessment under suitable documented conditions. A season without observable disease is different evidence from a season in which candidates remain healthy while susceptible references are affected.
