Transgenic Elite Lines of Carioca Seeded Common Bean (Phaseolus Vulgaris L.) With Multiple Resistance to Viruses Reduce Cowpea Mild Mottle Virus Transmission
Abstract:The most important viruses infecting common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) in Brazil are BCMV, BGMV and CPMMV, the last two transmitted by the whitefly Bemisia tabaci, occurring simultaneously and causing severe yield losses. Genetically modified progenies of common bean, from carioca market class and multiple virus resistance (BCMV, BGMV and CPMMV), have been developed using conventional breeding and molecular tools. Agronomic performance and virus disease severity (VS) evaluated in two field trials, selected 3… Show more
