Screening of young fruit from the F₂ population of ‘Gy14’ × ‘A4-3’ for response to inoculation with P. capsici. Fruits were harvested at 5-7 days post pollination (dpp). (A) Example of disease screening; fruits were photographed at 5 days post inoculation (dpi). Red box, A4-3; Dashed box, ‘Gy14’. (B) Disease score distribution of the F₂ population. Scores are the average of 10-20 fruit from each F₂ plant; fruit were scored at 5 dpi. (C) F₂ individuals selected for the resistant and susceptible bulks. Disease scores are the average of all four harvests.
