CVYV-resistant plants of the species <i>Cucumis melo</i>

摘要

The present invention relates to Cucumis melo plants that are resistant against Cucumber Vein Yellowing Virus (CVYV), and to plant parts derived thereof without the occurrence of necrotic symptoms. The invention further relates to methods of producing said plants, to CVYV-resistant plants obtainable by said methods, as well as to plant parts derived from said CVYV-resistant plants. Specifically, the present invention relates to a plant of the species Cucumis melo, comprising in its genome a genetic element, said genetic element comprising a Cucumber Vein Yellowing Virus (CVYV)-resistance conferring Quantitative Trait Locus (QTL), or a CVYV-resistance conferring part thereof, genetically linked to at least one molecular marker, wherein said marker is selected from a group consisting of E13/M48-259.69-P2, E16/M48-377.36-P2, E13/M48-261.30-P2 and E26/M62-076.8-P2.

主权项

1. A method for obtaining a CVYV resistant plant of the species Cucumis melo, comprising introducing a genetic element comprising a Cucumber Vein Yellowing Virus (CVYV)-resistance conferring Quantitative Trait Locus (QTL) genetically linked to at least one molecular marker, wherein said marker is selected from to the group consisting of E13/M48-259.69-P2 (amplification primers SEQ ID Nos: 1 and 2, mobility 259-260 bp), E16/M48-377.36-P2 (amplification primers SEQ ID Nos: 3 and 4, mobility 377-378 bp), E13/M48-261.30-P2 (amplification primers SEQ ID Nos: 5 and 6, mobility 261-262 bp) and E26/M62-076.8-P2 (amplification primers SEQ ID NOs: 7 and 8, mobility 76-77 bp), into the genome of said plant.
