Systematic studies in the genus Solanum in Africa [PDF]
Africa is a major centre of diversity in the large cosmopolitan genus Solanum. The genus is an important component of the African flora, and, with a variety of uses, many of the species have a significant interaction with man.

SolRgene: an online database to explore disease resistance genes in tuber-bearing Solanum species [PDF]
Background The cultivated potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is an important food crop, but highly susceptible to many pathogens. The major threat to potato production is the Irish famine pathogen Phytophthora infestans, which causes the devastating late ...

AFLP analysis reveals a lack of phylogenetic structure within
Background The secondary genepool of our modern cultivated potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) consists of a large number of tuber-bearing wild Solanum species under Solanum section Petota.

The utility of NBS profiling for plant systematics: a first study in tuber-bearing Solanum species [PDF]
Systematic relationships are important criteria for researchers and breeders to select materials. We evaluated a novel molecular technique, nucleotide binding site (NBS) profiling, for its potential in phylogeny reconstruction.

High resolution mapping of a novel late blight resistance gene Rpi-avll, from the wild Bolivian species Solanum avilesii [PDF]
Both Mexico and South America are rich in Solanum species that might be valuable sources of resistance (R) genes to late blight (Phytophthora infestans). Here, we focus on an R gene present in the diploid Bolivian species S. avilesii.

GpaXIltar originating from Solanum tarijense is a major resistance locus to Globodera pallida and is localised on chromosome 11 of potato [PDF]
Resistance to Globodera pallida Rookmaker (Pa3), originating from wild species Solanum tarijense was identified by QTL analysis and can be largely ascribed to one major QTL.

Allele mining in solanum: conserved homologues of Rpi-blb 1 are identified in Solanum stoloniferum [PDF]
Allele mining facilitates the discovery of novel resistance (R) genes that can be used in breeding programs and sheds light on the evolution of R genes.

Inbreeding depression in
Background Solanum carolinense (horsenettle) is a highly successful weed with a gametophytic self-incompatibility (SI) system. Previous studies reveal that the strength of SI in S. carolinense is a plastic trait, associated with particular S-alleles. The

Formation, production and viability of oospores of Phytophthora infestans from potato and Solanum demissum in the Toluca Valley, central Mexico [PDF]
Aspects of the ecology of oospores of Phytophthora infestans were studied in the highlands of central Mexico. From an investigation of a random sample of strains, it was found that isolates differed in their average capability to form oospores when ...
