Doomed by popularity: The broad use of the <i>Pm8</i> resistance gene in wheat resulted in hypermutation of the <i>AvrPm8</i> gene in the powdery mildew pathogen
2022-08-25
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> The Pm8 resistance gene against the powdery mildew disease has been introgressed from rye into wheat as part of a large 1BL.1RS chromosomal translocation. Due to its high agronomic value, this translocation has seen continuous global use since the 1960’s on large growth areas, even after Pm8 resistance was overcome. This allows studying the effect of long and widespread resistance gene use on a...
