Abstract
The present invention relates to Phytophthora capsici (Pc) resistant Capsicum annuum (pepper) plants wherein said resistance is conferred by a combination of resistance genes and a resistance locus. The invention further relates to the combination of resistance genes and locus providing resistance to Pc and furthermore provides resistance to Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria (Xcv). The present invention further relates to methods for providing the plant of the C. annuum species being resistant to Pc and/or Xcv.
Claims26
A plant of the Capsicum annuum (C. annuum) species that is resistant to Phytophthora capsici, wherein the plant comprises
- a SAR8.2 resistance gene, that encodes for a SAR8.2 resistance protein, having at least 90% amino acid sequence identity with SEQ ID NO:
- 2,
- a Pc6.1 resistance locus, wherein the Pc6.1 resistance locus comprises a first marker comprising a T at position 54 of SEQ ID xxx5 and/or a second marker comprising an A at position 101 of SEQ ID NO:
- 6, and
- a Xcv resistance gene, that encodes for a resistance Xcv protein having at least 95% amino acid sequence identity with SEQ ID NO:
- 4.

A SAR8.2 resistance gene in combination with a Pc6.1 resistance locus and a Xcv resistance gene in a C. annuum plant for providing resistance to Phytophthora capsica, wherein
- the SAR8.2 resistance gene comprises a coding sequence having at least 90% sequence identity with SEQ ID NO:
- 1,
- the Pc6.1 resistance locus, wherein the Pc6.1 resistance locus is flanked by SEQ ID NO:
- 7 and SEQ ID NO:
- 8,
- the Xcv resistance gene comprises a coding sequence having at least 90% sequence identity with SEQ ID NO:
- 3.
