Abstract: | Summary A major dominant locus conferring resistance against several pathotypes of the root cyst nematode Globodera rostochiensis was mapped on the linkage map of potato using restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) markers. The assessment of resistance versus susceptibility of the plants in the experimental population considered was based on an in vivo (pot) and an in vitro (petri dish) test. By linkage to nine RFLP markers the resistance locus Gro1 was assigned to the potato linkage group IX which is homologous to the tomato linkage group 7. Deviations from the additivity of recombination frequencies between Gro1 and its neighbouring markers in the pot test led to the detection of a few phenotypic misclassifications of small plants with poor root systems that limited the observation of cysts on susceptible roots. Pooled data from both tests provided better estimates of recombination frequencies in the linkage interval defined by the markers flanking the resistance locus. |
