Quantitative Trait Loci for Clubroot Resistance in Brassica oleracea

  • Chapter
Brassicas and Legumes From Genome Structure to Breeding

Part of the book series: Biotechnology in Agriculture and Forestry ((AGRICULTURE,volume 52))

Abstract

Clubroot, caused by the fungus Plasmodiophora brassicae Wor., is one of the most damaging diseases of Brassica oleracea crops, including cauliflower, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, and other cruciferous crops worldwide. The pathogen causes swelling of parts of the roots and sometimes of the stem base, giving rise to the characteristic “clubs” for which the disease is named (Fig. 1). These clubs inhibit nutrient and water transport, stunt the growth of the plant, and increase the susceptibility to wilting. Later on, the clubbed roots decay, weakening the support of the plant.
