In Iwate Prefecture, the incidence of black root rot of cucumber caused by Phomopsis sclerotioides has been increasing. To prevent this disease, several Cucurbitaceae plants were examined as the resistant rootstocks for grafting to cucumber plants. Among Cucurbitaceae plants used in this study, several cultivars(Atom, Naga-tougan and Okinawakogata-tougan)of Benincasa hispida was found to be effective. However, the Atom cultivar showed inadequate adaptability for grafting to cucumber plants.
