1 Federal States in Germany: HE: Hesse; NI: Lower Saxony; MV: Mecklenburg-Vorpommern; NW: North Rhine-Westphalia; RP: Rhineland-Palatinate; SN: Saxony; SH: Schleswig-Holstein. 2 Mean value of disease incidence (DI) in clubroot-infested fields in each federal state. The incidence of disease in each clubroot-infested field was estimated by randomly choosing 50 plants. The presence of any swelling or gall formation on the root was assumed as proof of P. brassicae infection. 3 Classification was done according to the differential systems of the European Clubroot Differential set (ECD; [19]) and Somé et al. [20]. A cut-off point of the disease severity index (DSI) of 25% was used to classify plant reactions as resistant or susceptible [20].
