Combined Omics Approaches Reveal Distinct Mechanisms of Resistance and/or Susceptibility in Sugar Beet Double Haploid Genotypes at Early Stages of Beet Curly Top Virus Infection.

Abstract excerpt

Sugar beet is susceptible to Beet curly top virus (BCTV), which significantly reduces yield and sugar production in the semi-arid growing regions worldwide. Sources of genetic resistance to BCTV is limited and control depends upon insecticide seed treatments with neonicotinoids. Through double haploid production and genetic selection, BCTV resistant breeding lines have been developed. Using BCTV resistant (R)...
