Abstract

This proposal will use the synteny between resistance gene homologues in Arabidopsis to map functional resistance genes identified in Brassica oleracea. This will be achieved by mapping genes for resistance to Peronospora parasitica and Albugo candida, using R-gene like sequences from Brassicas, and R-gene sequences and tightly linked markers from Arabidopsis. Arabidopsis will also be developed as a bioassay for the function of potential R-genes from Brassica.
