Abstract excerpt
KEY MESSAGE: Provide evidence that the Brassica B genome chromosome B3 carries blackleg resistance gene, and also the B genome chromosomes were inherited several generations along with B. napus chromosomes. Blackleg disease caused by fungus Leptosphaeria maculans causes significant yield losses in Brassica napus. Brassica carinata possesses excellent resistance to this disease. To introgress blackleg resistance,...
