Characterization of pathotype-specificity and stability of resistance to Turnip mosaic virus (TuMV) in lines of cabbage (Brassica oleracea)
Project
Project code: BAZ-IGK-02-1170
Contract period: 01.10.2004
- 30.09.2007
Purpose of research: Applied research
New resistance donors will be generated and characterized in order to improve resistance to TuMV in Brassica vegetables (head cabbage). The pathotype-specificity of TuMV resistance will be characterized as well as the stability of resistance in Brassica oleracea lines (land-race, primitive forms). The screenings will be carried out under greenhouse and field conditions with a broad spectrum of different TuMV pathotypes. The resistance in lines in relation to the virulence of new TuMV isolates shall be used for selection of lines with a high level of resistance to TuMV. In developed lines of Brassica oleracea the impact on the resistance to different TuMV pathotypes and on the stability (growth conditions, progenies) of TuMV resistance will be characterized. Lines with the highest level of resistance to TuMV pathotypes could be selected for resistance transfer into cabbage. The host-pathogen interaction represents the first step of producing new differentials for TuMV isolates based on the C genome.
