Molecular mapping of the Rph7.g leaf rust resistance gene in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.)
2000
Brunner, S. | Keller, B. | Feuillet, C.
In many temperate areas of the world, leaf rust is becoming an important disease of barley. In the last decade, new races of Puccinia hordei G.Otth have emerged which are virulent against the so far most effective race-specific resistance genes, such as Rph7. Marker-assisted selection greatly facilitates the pyramidization of two or more resistance genes in a single variety to achieve a more comprehensive resistance. Such a strategy requires the development of efficient and reliable markers.
