resistance is usually in<br />
controlled condition<br />
Greenhouse: controlled<br />

Results<br />
Usually weak root system… prone to drought<br />
and waterlogging<br />
Poor nutrient utilization ability<br />
Susceptible….<br />
If resistant … based on major gene or<br />
vertical resistance which can easily be<br />
overcome by the pathogen<br />
Poisoned workers, technicians and breeders<br />

Shift to…<br />
Regulated weeds or systematic weed<br />
management<br />
Organic fertilizer but limited<br />
Limited watering<br />
No or limited pest management<br />
interventions aside from pest repellents<br />
and intercropping<br />
No crop rotation in instances where build<br />
up of soil borne diseases is needed<br />
Limited use of cold storage facilities<br />
for seeds<br />

Organic Production Guidelines: RGM 2007
Objectives<br />
To select varieties vegetables for organic<br />
production :<br />
Solanaceous: eggplant, tomato, pepper,<br />
Legumes: pole sitao, bush sitao, cowpea, snap beans,<br />
Cucurbits: squash, watermelon, cucumber, patola, upo,<br />
Crucifers: cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, lettuce, pechay<br />
and herbs<br />
To recommend specific varieties for commercial<br />
and organic home gardens for regular and offseason<br />
production.<br />

Evaluation procedure<br />
Entries- OPV, land races, germplasm<br />
collection and hybrids<br />
Evaluated initially in unreplicated trials then<br />
to replicated trials for the selected entries.<br />
Wet and dry season<br />
Extract seeds (with selfing) even from<br />
hybrids- bagging/caging in pepper and<br />
eggplant, blind selfing in cucurbits<br />

Bagging<br />
To prevent pollen<br />
contamination from<br />
unwanted plants<br />
Select plants<br />
Cap flowers to open the<br />
