Pea and powdery mildew, genetics of host-pathogen interaction and identification of molecular markers for host resistance

Pea (Pisum sativum L.) suffers significant yield and quality losses because of infection by the parasitic fungus Erysiphe pisi Syd., the causal agent of powdery mildew. Resistant cultiv rs and lines were intercrossed and crossed with susceptible lines to determine the genetic basis of resistance. A...
