Abstract

Phytophthora species cause root rot and stem canker in macadamia, resulting in yield reduction and tree death. Differences in disease severity between trees in commercial orchards may be attributed to genetic factors and stochastic variation. Here we examined variability in half-sib, open-pollinated macadamia seedling progenies and their maternal parents to Phytophthora stem, root and leaf infections.
