Mapping an avirulence gene in the sunflower parasitic weed Orobanche cumana and characterization of host selection based on virulence alleles

Abstract Background Sunflower broomrape (Orobanche cumana Wallr.) is a holoparasitic plant that jeopardizes sunflower production in most areas of Europe and Asia. Recently, populations with increased virulence, classified as race GGV, have been identified in Southern Spain’s Guadalquivir Valley gene...
