Relationships between boron toxicity and resistance to two types of crown blight and to powdery mildew in muskmelon

Hilgardia, 1968, vol. 39, issue 11

Abstract: In greenhouse experiments at Davis, and field experiments at Five Points, California, Western muskmelon varieties and breeding lines were subjected to excess boron in various amounts. External symptoms were noted, and leaf content (dry-weight basis) of boron was determined. Possible relationships were sought between varietal sensitivity to boron and resistance to powdery mildew and to crown blight in Imperial Valley and at Five Points as determined in earlier experiments.
