Terminology used in Disease Resistance:
With regard to resistance to diseases mentioned in different crops, the terminologies / symbols used in this website are based on ISF decision adopted in May 2005. ‘Definition of the terms describing the reaction of plants to pests or pathogens and to a biotic stresses for the vegetable seed industry’

High/standard resistance (HR*): plant varieties that highly restrict the growth and development of the specified pest or pathogen under normal pest or pathogen pressure when compared to susceptible varieties. These plant varieties may, however, exhibit some symptoms or damage under heavy pest or pathogen pressure.

Moderate/Intermediate resistance (IR*): plant varieties that restrict the growth and development of the specified pest or pathogen, but may exhibit a greater range of symptoms or damage compared to high/standard resistant varieties. Moderately/intermediately resistant plant varieties will still show less severe symptoms or damage than susceptible plant varieties when grown under similar environmental conditions and/or rest or pathogen pressure.
