Five cultivars were moderately resistant, nine were moderately susceptible, while two were highly susceptible. Most of the cultivars were high yielding (46–55 t/ha) and had good fruit size (4.8–6.0 cm x 2.8–4.1 cm). They will be further evaluated on-farm at different locations after which they will be introduced to farmers to replace the low yielding and TLCV-susceptible cultivars currently in use in most parts of the Savanna ecological zones of the country.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Moderate resistance to tomato leaf curl virus among commercial tomato cultivars in northern Nigeria}, URL={http://ochroma.man.poznan.pl/Content/118553/PDF-MASTER/pan_doi_blank.pdf}, keywords={tomato cultivars, Tomato leaf curl virus, resistance, susceptibility}, }
