  1. a Values of two-sided χ2 test for the frequency of resistant accessions. Asterisk (*) indicates horticultural types with the frequency of resistant accessions significantly different at experiment-wise p < 0.01 from the overall frequency (0.13) observed for all tested types. Note that the statistical test has a low to absent detection power for significant results for horticultural types with a very few tested accessions
