The present invention relates to a modified ABCB9 gene encoding a protein conferring resistance to CMV in a plant of the Cucurbitaceae, such as a cucumber plant, in which the protein is expressed, where the gene has a) a nucleotide sequence which encodes a protein with SEQ ID NO: 4; b) a nucleotide sequence with SEQ ID NO: 3; c) a nucleotide sequence encoding a protein derived by substitution, deletion and/or addition of one or more amino acids of the protein with SEQ ID NO: 4; d) a nucleotide sequence that encodes a protein with an amino acid sequence, which is at least 85% identical to SEQ ID NO: 4; e) a nucleotide sequence which is at least 85% identical to SEQ ID NO: 3; or f) a nucleotide sequence according to c) or d) wherein the protein has a methionine (M) on position 428 of SEQ ID NO: 4, or on a position corresponding thereto.
A modified ABCB9 gene encoding a protein conferring resistance to CMV in a plant of the Cucurbitaceae, in which the protein is expressed, characterized in that the gene comprises a nucleotide sequence of
A modified EF1-α gene encoding a protein conferring resistance to CMV in a cucumber plant, in which the protein is expressed, characterized in that the gene comprises a nucleotide sequence of
A marker for identifying a cucumber plant comprising a modified ABCB9 gene, wherein the marker detects a modified nucleotide on position 1282 as compared to the wild type ABCB9 gene nucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO:
A marker for identifying a cucumber plant comprising a modified EF1-α gene, wherein the marker detects a modified nucleotide on position 1115 as compared to the wild type EF1-α gene nucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO:
A method of identifying a cucumber plant that comprises a modified ABCB9 gene and/or a modified EF1-α gene, and in particular for identifying a plant that is resistant to CMV, comprising detecting the plant with a marker that detects a modified nucleotide on position 1282 as compared to the wild type ABCB9 gene nucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO:
