A Novel, Sensitive Method to Evaluate Potato Germplasm for Bacterial Wilt Resistance Using a Luminescent Ralstonia solanacearum Reporter Strain

A Novel, Sensitive Method to Evaluate Potato Germplasm for Bacterial Wilt Resistance Using a Luminescent Ralstonia solanacearum Reporter Strain

Several breeding programs are under way to introduce resistance to bacterial wilt caused by Ralstonia solanacearum in solanaceous crops. The lack of screening methods allowing easy measurement of pathogen colonization and the inability to detect latent (i.e., symptomless) infections are major limita...
