Adaptation of the Cyst Nematode Globodera pallida to the Colinear Potato Resistant QTLs GpaVvrn and GpaVspl Involved Distinct Genomic Regions and Absence of Cross-Virulence.

Abstract excerpt

The use of alternative methods to control cyst nematode populations has accelerated since the ban of chemical nematicides in Europe. The resistant QTL GpaVvrn, derived from the wild species Solanum vernei, is widely present in resistant European potato cultivars and provides strong protection against Globodera pallida populations although a risk of resistance breakdown has already been demonstrated in both...
