The resistance to ozone-induced tipburn in onions mentioned earlier is being incorporated into commercial onion varieties primarily for the Midwest at the University of Wisconsin (12). In a program at the University of Tennessee, dark green vigorous trees have been selected in stands of eastern white pine in which most trees have died because of sensitivity to ozone, S02, and automobile exhaust constituents. Crosses have been made to determine the genetics of resistance, and a formal breeding orchard of resistant trees has been established (13).

S- and R-insects are killed by the pesticide. If mahng is random, inihally rare homozygous R-individuals are likely to mate with the more abundant homozygous suscephble insects that have not been exposed to the insech-cide. In most cases, where the genetics of resistance have been studied, the resistance alleles are recessive or semidominant. 

During the last decade our knowledge of the bases and genetics of resistance of solanaceous crop plants to insects (see other chapters in this volume) has increased markedly. Resistance has been primarily based on the enhancement of the levels of one or two constitutive chemical and/or physical resistance-conferring characteristics in commercial varieties via breeding with exotic germplasm (see other chapters in the volume). The predominant mode...
