Characterization, identification and expression profiling of genome-wide R-genes in melon and their putative roles in bacterial fruit blotch resistance
Abstract Background Bacterial fruit blotch (BFB), a disease caused by Acidovorax citrulli, results in significant economic losses in melon. The causal QTLs and genes for resistance to this disease have yet to be identified. Resistance (R)-genes play vital roles in resistance to plant diseases. Since...
