Abstract: The present invention relates to a plant, which is resistant to a pathogen of viral, bacterial, fungal or oomycete origin, wherein the plant has a reduced level, reduced activity or complete absence of DMR6 protein as compared to a plant that is not resistant to the said pathogen, in particular organisms of the Fungi or the phylum Oomycota. The invention further relates to a method for obtaining a plant, which is resistant to a pathogen of viral, bacterial, fungal or oomycete origin, comprising reducing the endogenous level or activity of DMR6 protein in the plant. In addition, the invention relates to the use of a DMR6 promotor for providing disease resistant plants.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to upright heading iceberg lettuce plants including a space between the base of the head and the top of the ground, wherein the space includes an increased length of core outside of the processing material of the head (i.e., external stem). The increased external stem lengths of the upright heading iceberg lettuce plants of the present disclosure make them suitable for machine harvesting. Other aspects of the present disclosure relate to methods of generating and selecting upright heading iceberg lettuce plants. New upright heading iceberg lettuce varieties designated ‘E01E.70111’ Lot A, ‘E01E.70111’ Lot B, ‘E01E.70168’ Lot A, and ‘E01E.70168’ Lot B are described.
