Melon Fusarium wilt (MFW), caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. melonis (Fom), is one of the most destructive diseases of melon (Cucumis melo L.). The development and deployment of resistant cultivars is generally considered to be the best approach to control MFW. Based on the host resistance genes associated with variants of this pathogen, Fom isolates were classified into four physiological races...
The melon gene Fom-2, which confers resistance to Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. melonis (Fom) races 0 and 1, has been previously characterized by map-based cloning, and it encodes a protein with a nucleotide binding site (NBS) and leucine-rich repeats (LRRs). Here, we used the primer Fom2-LRR1639 to clone and sequence a partial LRR region of the Fom-2 gene in 11 melon accessions resistant to Fusarium wilt...
