R. aInheritance of resistance to Verticillium wilt in cotton. c2008 aThe control of genetic resistance to Verticillium wilt in cotton was studied by specific designs for mean and variance analysis. It was found that the trait is highly heritable and mainly controlled by additive gene effects. According to the method of disease evaluation and the procedure for calculation, two or three genes would be involved in the determination of resistance. Although the results by the three methods used for disease evaluation were rather similar, a probable tolerance mechanism, observed mainly in the resistant parent, indicated the possibility of inconsistencies in studies of resistance to this Verticillium wilt in cotton, in the case of evaluation based on external leaf symptoms. aAgricultura aAlgodão aBiotecnologia aGenética aMurcha de Verticillium aCotton diseases aDoenças do algodoeiro aEstudo de herança genética aStudy of genetic inheritance aVerticullum wilt1 aGALBIERI, R.1 aFUZATTO, M.
