Exploiting susceptibility genes in canola to improve blackleg resistance
Assess blackleg resistance in available germplasm, identify candidate susceptibility (S) genes conferring blackleg resistance and develop markers, and generate stable S gene knock-out canola lines and evaluate their resistance reaction and develop homozygous pre-breeding…Read More

Read MoreDeveloping canola germplasms with multiple resistance mechanisms for durable clubroot control
Cultivar resistance is considered the most effective and practical approach for clubroot management However, current resistant canola cultivars, available in Canada since 2009, were based on a single clubroot resistance (CR) gene In 2013, some fields in Alberta with a resistant canola cultivar…Read More
