Zusammenfassung: | The fusarium yellows resistance (YR) gene FocBo1 was previously identified and the DNA markers were developed to assist the breeding of YR cultivars in Brassica oleracea. However, the further analysis revealed discrepancies between the phenotypes and the genotypes predicted by those DNA markers in cabbage commercial cultivars. Since this discrepancy seemed to be due to unknown susceptible alleles of focbo1, we sequenced the gene in 19 accessions to determine the sequence variations between alleles and found that there were two resistant FocBo1 alleles and six susceptible alleles in the investigated population. The newly designed PCR markers detected three mutations in the susceptible alleles that generate premature termination codons. These were shown to accurately distinguish resistant and susceptible alleles in more than 200 accessions of B. oleracea inbred lines and cultivars. The study revealed that the locus is represented by 37.2% resistant and 62.8% susceptible alleles within seventy-eight commercial cultivars. Structural analysis of the gene revealed that a part of the allelic variation comes from intragenic recombination between alleles. Our results enable a more precise prediction of the phenotype by marker assisted selection, promoting the production of YR cultivars in B. oleracea. |
