Development of apple powdery mildew on sources of resistance to Podosphaera leucotricha, exposed to an inoculum virulent against the major resistance gene Pl-2
2007-06-01
Abstract excerpt
The major resistance gene Pl-2 in apple has recently been shown to be overcome by a virulent population of powdery mildew, Podosphaera leucotricha, in genotypes of the fourth generation after introgression of Pl-2 from crab apple, Malus zumi. Tests of pathogenicity in controlled conditions and observations in an orchard showed that the initial progenitor of Pl-2, MAL 68/1, was overcome by a virulent inoculum. As a...
