Abstract excerpt
Key message A single recessive gene for complete resistance to powdery mildew and a major-effect QTL for partial resistance to downy mildew were co-localized in a Cucumis hystrix introgression line of cucumber. Downy mildew (DM) and powdery mildew (PM) are two major foliar diseases in cucumber. DM resistance (DMR) and PM resistance (PMR) may share common components; however, the genetic relationship between them...
