We have established dsRNA technology that can be applied to control FHB in wheat and blackleg in canola and have established optimal screening and analyses protocols that can be applied to develop analogous solutions for other pathogen species once suitable genomic resources are established The…
Researchers with Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada recently completed the genetic mapping of the blackleg resistance gene Rlm11 Rlm11 is effective against the L maculans isolates carrying the avirulence gene AvrLm11, which is found in 95 percent of L maculans isolates collected from western Canadian…
