Abstract excerpt
Little is known about the genome of Polymyxa betae and its interactions with sugar beet, due partly to the obligate nature of the protist and the patents on Beta vulgaris sequences. The identification of an ecotype of Arabidopsis thaliana compatible with the protist would help to improve this knowledge. The infection and development of P. betae in 14 worldwide ecotypes of A. thaliana were studied. The detection...
