Marker-Assisted Breeding for Fusarium Wilt Resistance in Canola

Researcher:

Mr. Ralph Lange, Alberta Research Council, Vegreville; S. Kuzmiez, Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, Saskatoon; S. Rimmer, Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, Saskatoon

Project Code:

CARP 2005-10

Final Report:

June 2009

Summary:

Fusarium wilt resistance in Brassica napus was found to be conferred by a single dominant gene, the A-genome. This means that B. rapa and B. oleracea may be sources of resistance to fusarium wilt available to B. napus breeders. Combining resistances could be used to increase the longevity of resistance to Fusarium wilt in B. napus.
