ASSESSING SOME STRAWBERRY GENOTYPES USED IN BREEDING PROGRAMME FOR INCREASING RESISTANCE TO DISEASES
Journal Title: FRUIT GROWING RESEARCH - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue
Abstract
The experiments were conducted at Research Institute for Fruit Growing Pitesti during 2016-2017 to identify the suitable strawberry genotypes with good resistance to the specific diseases. In Pitesti conditions, the most tolerant genotypes on the Mycosphaerela fragariae - leaf spot of strawberry attack were: 8-14-42, 8-15-3 (DISINC% and DISEV% 0.67-1.00) and Kupava (DISINC%=1.33, DISEV%=0.67). The molecular analyzes results performed with the two markers to the two resistance genes show the presence of the two Rpf1 (Phytophthora fragariae) and Rca2 (Colletotrichum acutatum) in four genotypes (Benton, Real, 08-14 -42, 08-14-8). Due their good behavior to fungal pathogens attack and the presence of the two resistance genes, studied genotypes will be intensively used in the strawberry breeding program.
