Apr, 1983 Influence of Soil Temperature on Fusarium in Cabbage 
A COMPARISON OF SUSCEPTIBILITY IN THE WISCONSIN HOLLANDER AND 
COMMERCIAL HOLLANDER SEEDLINGS 
In all of the experiments conducted under controlled temperature 
and moisture conditions variations in individual susceptibility among 
plants have been very noticeable in both susceptible and resistant 
strains. Data were obtained from experiments previously reported by 
recording each day the percentage of plants in each can showing the 
disease at the different temperatures. These data are shown for both 
naturally and artificially infested soils in Tables VI and VII.
