Mapping of resistance genes to powdery mildew based on DNA re-sequencing and bulk segregant analysis in Capsicum.

Powdery mildew caused by Leveillula taurica adversely affects the development and growth of pepper plants. However, there have been few reports on the fine mapping and quantitative trait locus (QTLs) gene cloning of resistance genes to powdery mildew in pepper. Herein, an F segregating population was constructed using the high resistance material "NuMex Suave Red" and the extremely susceptible material "c89" for bulked segregant analysis and DNA re-sequencing (BSA-seq).

Pepper variome reveals the history and key loci associated with fruit domestication and diversification.

Pepper (Capsicum spp.) is an important vegetable crop that provides a unique pungent sensation when eaten. Through construction of a pepper variome map, we examined the main groups that emerged during domestication and breeding of C.

Chile Pepper () Breeding and Improvement in the "Multi-Omics" Era.

Chile pepper ( spp.) is a major culinary, medicinal, and economic crop in most areas of the world. For more than hundreds of years, chile peppers have "defined" the state of New Mexico, USA.

Genomic regions and candidate genes linked with Phytophthora capsici root rot resistance in chile pepper (Capsicum annuum L.).

Background: Phytophthora root rot, caused by Phytophthora capsici, is a major disease affecting Capsicum production worldwide. A recombinant inbred line (RIL) population derived from the hybridization between 'Criollo de Morellos-334' (CM-334), a resistant landrace from Mexico, and 'Early Jalapeno', a susceptible cultivar was genotyped using genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS)-derived single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers. A GBS-SNP based genetic linkage map for the RIL population was constructed.
