Bolting tolerance is an important breeding trait in sugar beets (Beta vulgaris). To understand factors controlling bolting tolerance in Japanese sugar beets, we focused on the molecular variation of the BvBTC1 gene, a master gene linked to life cycle (annual vs. biennial). Although the biennial haplotype “a” is recognized in beets worldwide, our genomic sequencing detected two additional haplotypes,...
I-12CMS(2) and I-12CMS(3) are sugar beet lines with different sources of cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) derived from wild beets in Turkey and Pakistan, respectively. We established that I-12CMS(2) has a genetically distinct cytoplasm, but its mitochondrial genome is very similar to I-12CMS(3). Male fertility was assessed in F1 hybrids produced with a common pollen parent. Fertility in the F1's carrying...
Caused by Aphanomyces cochlioides Drechsler, Aphanomyces root rot is a serious disease of sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.), for which sources of resistance are scarce. To identify the segregation pattern of the rare resistance trait found in Japanese sugar beet line ‘NK-310mm-O’, F1 and BC1F2 seedings, drawn from a cross between ‘NK-310mm-O’ and susceptible line ‘NK-184mm-O’, were inoculated with zoospores...
