This chapter reviews limitations of the classical genetic analysis of resistance based on
allelism tests and the current state of knowledge about resistance to anthracnose in common …

Proper utilization of plant disease resistance genes requires a good understanding of their
short-and long-term evolution. Here we present a comprehensive study of the long-term …

The Andean common bean AND 277 has the Co-1 4 and the Phg-1 alleles that confer
resistance to 21 and eight races, respectively, of the anthracnose (ANT) and angular leaf …

Abstract Key message An Oligo-FISH barcode system was developed for two model
legumes, allowing the identification of all cowpea and common bean chromosomes in a …

Subtelomeres of most eukaryotes contain fast-evolving genes usually involved in adaptive
processes. In common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris), the Co-2 anthracnose resistance (R) …

Muscadinia rotundifolia, a species closely related to cultivated grapevine Vitis vinifera, is a
major source of resistance to grapevine downy and powdery mildew, two major threats to …

Abstract Background The Andean cultivar Paloma is resistant to Mesoamerican and Andean
races of Colletotrichum lindemuthianum, the fungal pathogen that causes the destructive …

The B4 resistance (R) gene cluster is one of the largest clusters known in common bean
