CucCAP researchers identify genetic loci conferring resistance to Fusarium wilt race 2 and Papaya ring-spot virus-watermelon strain

Disease screens of the USDA watermelon germplasm collection have highlighted the value of wild watermelons for enhancing disease resistance to Fusarium wilt and papaya ring-spot virus in modern cultivars. The CucCAP team collaborated with Sakata Seed to identify genetic loci that confer resistance to both diseases. The genetic loci identified in this study are highly valuable for the improvement of disease resistance in elite watermelon cultivars. Continue Reading
