As we have learnt

Methods of breeding for disease resistance crops -

Selection

When the source of resistance is a cultivated variety, mass selection and pure lines selection in self pollinated crops, mass and recurrent selection in cross pollinated species, and clonal selection in the vegetatively propagated crops will be ideal for isolating disease resistant plants. The resistant plants may be multiplied, screened for disease resistance and released a variety.
