Abstract

Soon after the first appearance of the disease, the presence of some traits of resistance to rhizomania was recognized in Italian varieties. In the mid-1980s, the breeding research led to the release of monogenic resistance, which reduced drastically the damage caused by beet necrotic yellow vein virus (BNYVV). At least two origins of the currently employed traits (Rz1 and Rz2) were identified in Beta maritima collected in the Po River Delta, Italy, and at Kalundborg Fjord, Denmark. Both traits are located on chromosome III and spaced far enough apart to be considered different loci. The crosses display an additive action, useful for increasing sugar yield even in the presence of Rz1 resistance-breaking strains of BNYVV. Some differences were detected in the mechanisms limiting the effects of the BNYVV, because the beets carrying the resistance Rz2 show reduced virus replication and more restricted cell-to-cell movement than Rz1. But the subject still is controversial. In the future, resistance to the vector, P. betae, could complement the effects of BNYVV resistances, if difficulties in the transfer of the trait would be overcome.
