Molecular Pathotyping of <i>Plasmodiophora brassicae</i>—Genomes, Marker Genes, and Obstacles

Here we review the usefulness of the currently available genomic information for the molecular identification of pathotypes. We focused on effector candidates and genes implied to be pathotype specific and tried to connect reported marker genes to <i>Plasmodiophora brassicae</i> genome i...

Description
Summary:Here we review the usefulness of the currently available genomic information for the molecular identification of pathotypes. We focused on effector candidates and genes implied to be pathotype specific and tried to connect reported marker genes to <i>Plasmodiophora brassicae</i> genome information. The potentials for practical applications, current obstacles and future perspectives are discussed.
