Accelerating genetic gains for quantitative resistance to verticillium wilt through predictive breeding in strawberry.

Abstract excerpt

Verticillium wilt (VW), a devastating vascular wilt disease of strawberry (Fragaria × $\times$ ananassa), has caused economic losses for nearly a century. This disease is caused by the soil-borne pathogen Verticillium dahliae, which occurs nearly worldwide and causes disease in numerous agriculturally important plants. The development of VW-resistant cultivars is critically important for the sustainability of...
