Development of late blight resistant potatoes by cisgene stacking
BACKGROUND Phytophthora infestans, causing late blight in potato, remains one of the most devastating pathogens in potato production and late blight resistance is a top priority in potato breeding. The introduction of multiple resistance (R) genes with different spectra from crossable species into potato varieties is required. Cisgenesis is a promising approach that introduces native genes from...
متن کاملA review of early blight on potatoes
CHIPS 38 Geographic distribution Early blight is widespread in most areas where potatoes or tomatoes are grown, but is especially prevalent in the tropics and temperate zones. The disease is a potential threat where potatoes are grown under irrigation or during times of heavy dew. Early blight is prevalent in all provinces in South Africa and is a limiting factor in production in late summer. E...
متن کاملFoliar and tuber assessment of late blight
Host plant resistance is an important component to the management of potato late blight, Phytophthora infestans (Mont.) de Bary. Assessment of potato lines (Solarium tuberosum L.) with various levels of resistance to P. infestans (US8, A2 genotype) were evaluated in field trials, greenhouse controlled environment chambers and inoculated tuber reactions. Five lines (AWN86514-2, B0692-4, B0718-3,...
متن کاملThe early days of late blight
Large-scale DNA sequencing of samples of foliage collected in the 19th century from plants infected with late blight has shown that the potato famines of the 1840s were triggered by a single clonal lineage of Phytophthora infestans, called HERB-1, which persisted for at least 50 years.
متن کاملElectrochemical Determination of Low Molecular Mass Thiols Content in Potatoes (Solanum tuberosum) Cultivated in the Presence of Various Sulphur Forms and Infected by Late Blight (Phytophora infestans)
In the present paper potato plants were cultivated in the presence of ammonium sulphate or elemental sulphur supplementation into the soil to reveal the effects of different sulphur forms on content of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium and sulphur, and yield of tubers. During the investigation of the influence of different sulphur forms on yield of potato tubers we did not obs...
