Abstract excerpt
Rhizome rot disease caused by necrotrophic oomycete Pythium aphanidermatum is responsible for upto 60% of yield losses in turmeric (Curcuma longa L). However, Curcuma zedoaria L, a wild relative of turmeric, is resistant to P. aphanidermatum and has been proposed as a potential donor for rot resistance to C. longa. We used a previously isolated resistance gene candidate Czp11 from C. zedoaria as a template to char...
