Relationship between DNA and blast reaction clusters
| DNA cluster |
Blast reaction clustera | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A (%) | B1 (%) | B2 (%) | Total (%) | |
| Ia | 45 (100.0) | 0 (0.0) | 0 (0.0) | 45 (100.0) |
| Ib | 2 (66.7) | 0 (0.0) | 1 (33.3) | 3 (100.0) |
| Sum | 47 (97.9) | 0 (0.0) | 1 (2.1) | 48 (100.0) |

| Total | 59 (95.2) | 1 (1.6) | 2 (3.2) | 62 (100.0) |
a Accessions used in both DNA polymorphism and blast inoculation experiments were considered here, i.e. all Ethiopian accessions (33 improved and 27 landraces) and two controls: IR64 and WAB56-104.
