Abstract
Of 260 plant introductions (PI) of okra [Abelmoschus esculentus (L.) Moench.] evaluated for disease resistance, 39 were resistant to southern root knot nematode [Meloidogyne incognita (Kofoid & White) (Chitwood)], 9 were resistant to fusarium wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. vasinfectum (A & K) Snyder and Hansen, and 3 were resistant to both. An introduction of A. manihot L., a wild relative of okra, was highly resistant to fusarium wilt.
