Provided herein is a genetic determinant for potato late blight resistance caused by the plant pathogen Phytophtora infestans, in potato, Solanum tuberosum L. Specifically, disclosed herein are Solanum tuberosum plants having a genetic determinant providing qualitative resistance against Phytophtora infestans which genetic determinant is located in the distal part of chromosome 12 of Solanum tuberosum between positions 60.1 and 67.2. Mbp and which genetic determinant is obtainable from a Solanum tuberosum plant with deposit No. NCIMB 43225.
A Solanum tuberosum plant comprising in its genome a genetic determinant providing qualitative resistance against Phytophthora infestans, wherein the genetic determinant is located in the distal part of chromosome 12 of said Solanum tuberosum between positions 60.1 and 67.2 Mbp and comprising a quantitative trait locus at 59,870,038 bp of chromosome 12, representative seed of said Solanum tuberosum plant deposited with NCIMB under Accession No. NCIMB 43225.
A method for providing a Solanum tuberosum plant having qualitative resistance against Phytophthora infestans, the method comprising introgressing a genetic determinant providing qualitative resistance against Phytophthora infestans and a quantitative trait locus at 59,870,038 bp of chromosome 12 from the Solanum tuberosum plant deposited with NCIMB under Accession No. NCIMB 43225 into a susceptible Solanum tuberosum plant, thereby producing the Solanum tuberosum plant having qualitative resistance against Phytophthora infestans.
