CUCUMBER PLANTS WITH IMPROVED PEST RESISTANCE

Fuente: WIPO "tomato"
Cucumber plants exhibiting resistance to Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. radicis cucumerinum (FORC) are provided, together with methods of producing, identifying, or selecting plants or germplasm with a FORC resistance phenotype. Such plants include cucumber plants comprising introgressed genomic regions conferring disease resistance. Compositions, including novel polymorphic markers for detecting plants comprising introgressed disease resistance alleles, are further provided.
