Seed decay was low in 1980, but in 1981 ranged from 0.5% in Elf to 26% in Wells. Resistance to seed decay, also expressed as low seed infection, apparently did not involve resistance to stem or pod infection. Stem and pod infection were affected by rainfall, dew, and humidity. Seed infection was affected by host resistance, stage of development, and humidity and temperature.
