Modelling the effect of gene deployment strategies on durability of plant resistance under selection
2017-07-01
Abstract excerpt
Genetic resistance in crop plants is a cornerstone of disease management in agriculture. Such genetic resistance is often rapidly overtaken due to selection in the pathogen population, resulting in an arms race between plant breeders and the pathogen population. Here we ask whether there are strategies that can prolong the useful life of plant resistance genes. In a modelling study we compare three basic strategie...
