Abstract excerpt
Bacterial spot of tomato is caused by at least four species of Xanthomonas with multiple physiological races. We developed a complex breeding population for simultaneous discovery of marker-trait linkage, validation of existing quantitative trait loci (QTL), and pyramiding of resistance. Six advanced accessions with resistance from distinct sources were crossed in all combinations and their F1 hybrids were...
