First Report of a New Highly Virulent Pathotype of Sunflower Downy Mildew (Plasmopara halstedii) Overcoming the Pl₈ Resistance Gene in Europe
2020-02-01
Abstract excerpt
Downy mildew of sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.), caused by the oomycete Plasmopara halstedii, is a major constraint to production worldwide. The inbred line RHA 340 has been extensively used to produce resistant hybrids. It harbors the Pl₈ gene derived from H. argophyllus Torrey and Gray (Miller and Gulya 1988), providing resistance to all pathotypes of P. halstedii in Europe described to date (Markell et al. 201...
