Assessment of strawberry varieties by anthracnose resistance gene

The results of marker-assisted identification the Rca2 anthracnose resistance gene in promising strawberry varieties were shown. DNA marker STS-Rca2_240, linked to allele was identified Albion and Aprica ( F. × ananassa ), variety Dar anashata ). Strawberry Alpha, Bereginya, Kokinskaya Zarya, Pamyati Zubova, Rubinovy kaskad, Slavutich, Yuniol, Big King, Brilla, Joly, Rumba Vivara are characterized by absence STS-Rca2_240. In with STS-Rca2_240 (Dar, Aprica), can be a dominant homozygous or heterozygous state, which makes it possible recommend these genotypes for use breeding resistance.
