Pepper Phytophthora capsici Resistance Screening Now Available at CSP Labs
CSP Labs introduces a new pepper resistance screening service focused on Phytophthora capsici, a significant pathogen affecting pepper production.
This pathogen can impact plants at multiple stages and impact roots, crowns, stems, foliage, and fruit. Once established, losses can be significant and evaluations in uncontrolled environments may be inconsistent.
To help breeding and research teams generate stronger comparative data, CSP Labs offers managed resistance screening assays that apply consistent disease pressure across tested material.
Why Programs Use Controlled Screening
Reliable screening helps teams:
- Compare germplasm under uniform challenge
- Improve confidence in advancement decisions
- Reduce environmental variability in evaluations
- Accelerate resistance-focused breeding efforts
The pepper assay joins a growing list of Field Research services developed to support breeding programs across multiple crops.
