The monoecious, downy mildew-resistant Cucumis melo PI 124112 was made homozygous for resistance by selfing and screening for seven generations and crossed with either the downy mildew-susceptible cultivar Ananas-Yokneam (AY) or the downy mildew-resistant breeding line PI 124111F (possessing the resistance genes Pc1 and Pc2). F 1 , F 2 , BCs, and TC progeny plants were inoculated with Pseudoperonospora cubensis pathotype 3 and assessed for reaction type 8 days postinoculation (.)
