“…Thus, it was chosen to test susceptibility on fruit-setting shoots rather than on older branches, as done in previous studies. After artificial inoculation, Trandafirescu and Teodorescu (2006) reported high variance in the size of the destroyed tissue, but this was not found by Crossa-Raynaud (1969), Gulcan et al, (1998) or Nicotra et al (2006). The Crossa-Raynaud technique evaluates susceptibility or resistance based on the length of the infected area.…”

“…Although field observations are the most important to decide if a genotype is resistant or not, a reliable, rapid artificial method is needed for the evaluation of new hybrids. Such a method was described by Crossa-Raynaud (1969), and this was subsequently applied by Gulcan et al (1997) in Turkey, Nicotra et al (2006) in Italy and Trandafirescu and Teodorescu (2006) in Romania. This method involves the inoculation of 2-4-year-old branches removed from the tree under controlled conditions.…”

Blossom blight caused by Monilia laxa (Ehr.) is the most important fungal disease in Hungarian apricot orchards. The cultivars traditionally grown in the country are susceptible to Monilia laxa (Ehr.) to various extents. In this study the shoots of one tree each of the varieties Zard and Korai Zamatos and 48 hybrids from their cross were artificially infected in vivo with Monilia laxa (Ehr.). The results indicated that when artificial infections are made to evaluate pathogen resistance, this should be carried out on one-year-old shoots, since this is the natural infection point of Monilia. It also appears that, due to the great variability in the size of destroyed tissues, the microscopic analysis of the infections could provide a more reliable evaluation of progeny resistance than comparing the sizes of destroyed shoot areas.
