Genomic markers linked to resistance introgressed from to cultivated potato and their utility in marker-assisted selection.

Unlabelled: is a major threat to potato production in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. Infected tubers are rendered unmarketable; hence, growers' profitability is adversely affected. Breeding for nematode resistance is a long-term process and phenotyping the segregating populations for nematode resistance is the most time-consuming and laborious part of the process.

Elimination of from viruliferous in greenhouse pot experiments through cultivation of castle russet.

Corky ringspot (CRS) is a widespread potato tuber necrotic disease caused by (TRV) infection. In the Pacific Northwest, this virus is transmitted by the stubby root nematode (SRN) within the genus . Remediating CRS affected fields is a major challenge that can be mitigated by growing plant varieties that are resistant to TRV infection.
