A New Resistance Gene against Potato Late Blight Originating from Solanum pinnatisectum Located on Potato Chromosome 7
Late blight, caused by the pathogen Phytophthora infestans, is one of the most devastating diseases of potato. Here, we describe a new single dominant resistance gene, Rpi2, from the Mexican diploid wild species Solanum pinnatisectum that confers high level and broad spectrum resistance to late blig...
