Abstract

Resistance of cultivated asparagus (Asparagus officinalis), wild A. kiusianus and their interspecific hybrids to
stem blight caused by Phomopsis asparagi (Sacc.) Bubák was evaluated. A. kiusianus had higher resistance than A. officinalis
although there were individual variations. The resistance of interspecific hybrids between A. officinalis and A.
kiusianus was mostly intermediate, but some individuals had strong resistance equivalent to A. kiusianus. The results
suggest that it is possible to introduce the resistance of A. kiusianus to stem blight into A. officinalis through interspecific
hybridization for further Asparagus breeding.
