Abstract
The invention relates to a lettuce plant (Lactuca sativa L.) which may comprise a resistance allele which confers a broad spectrum resistance to Bremia lactucae, wherein the resistance allele is located on linkage group 9, and which resistance allele is as found in the genome of plants grown from seeds of which a representative sample was deposited under accession number NCIMB 42141. The invention further provides seeds, progeny, propagation material and food products from the plant.
