Construction of a Single-Nucleotide Polymorphism Marker Based Quantitative Trait Loci Map and Validation of Resistance Loci to Bacterial Wilt <em>(Ralstonia solanacearum)</em> in Tomato
Abstract:Bacterial wilt (BW), caused by Ralstonia solanacearum is one of the major biotic factors limiting tomato production in the humid tropics. Pyramiding of resistance genes through marker-assisted selection is an efficient way to develop durable BW resistant cultivars. Tomato line ‘Hawaii 7996’ (H7996) is a stable and robust resistance source against various R. solanacearum strains. Major BW resistance quantitative trait loci (QTLs) Bwr-12 and Bwr-6, and several minor or strain specific QTLs ha… Show more
