  • Patent number: 8895812
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a plant that is resistant to cucumber closterovirus and resistant to cucumber powdery mildew, wherein said plant is a plant of the species Cucumis sativus, said plant comprising, on a single chromosome, at least one chromosomal region that confers closterovirus resistance and at least one chromosomal region that confers powdery mildew resistance, wherein said at least one region that confers closterovirus resistance is linked to at least one marker selected from the group consisting of markers E16/M50-244, E16/M50-188, and E11/M48-251, and wherein said at least one region that confers powdery mildew resistance is linked to at least one marker selected from the group consisting of: the single nucleotide polymorphism marker 39T?G in SEQ ID NO:1, the single nucleotide polymorphism marker 29G?A in SEQ ID NO:2, the single nucleotide polymorphism marker 193C?T in SEQ ID NO:3, the insertion mutation 5?-AATTT-3? at position 221 in SEQ ID NO:4, and markers E16/M50-F-194, E11/M48-F-

  • Patent number: 8759622
    Abstract: A method for producing cucumber plants which are resistant to cucumber closteroviruses. The method comprises the steps of providing a Cucumis sativus plant which contains alleles that confer resistance to the closteroviruses defined by two QTLs, crossing said C. sativus plant with C. sativus culture breeding material, collecting the seeds resulting from said cross, regenerating the seeds into plants, evaluating the plants for resistance to the closteroviruses, and identifying and selecting resistant plants. Further, a resistant cucumber plant produced by the method as well as fruit or seed produced by said plant.
