precise inoculation of node with Phytophthora drechsleri&#13;
f. sp. cajani. After node inoculation, 96.0% plants were&#13;
infected compared with 89.0% after stem-cut inoculation.&#13;
Among various nodes inoculated on 30-day-old plants, the&#13;
5th node had the greatest relative susceptibility (90.0%), followed&#13;
by the 3rd node (78.0%). This technique was validated&#13;
on different cultivars (ICP 7119, Bahar, MA 6 and MAL&#13;
13), and 586 lines were successfully screened in the field,&#13;
confirming the rapidity and effectiveness of the technique&#13;
for resistance screening.</mods:abstract><mods:classification authority="lcc">Pigeonpea</mods:classification><mods:originInfo><mods:dateIssued encoding="iso8061">2017-09-08</mods:dateIssued></mods:originInfo><mods:originInfo><mods:publisher>Springer Nature</mods:publisher></mods:originInfo><mods:genre>Article</mods:genre></mods:mods>
