GENOME-WIDE SURVEYING OF CUCUMBER (CUCUMIS SATIVUS L.) LINES FOR IDETIFYING LOCI OF ZYMV RESISTANCE      

OMER FARUK COSKUN
Abstract

---

Control of virus diseases such as zucchini yellow mosaic virus (ZYMV) of cucumber causing major yield and quality losses is impossible by using any chemical pesticide except for using elimination of vectors of viruses and resistant cultivar. The objectives of this study were to investigate structure of genetic resistance to ZYMV of cucumber for marker-assisted selection (MAS). Forty-eigth resistant and 48 susceptible lines were selected from a germplasm of 600 cucumber lines. Bulk DNAs of resistant and susceptible lines were screened to find candidate marker(s) by using ISSR, RAPD and a cleaved amplified polymorphism (CAP) primers, which targeted over 5000 loci of cucumber. A total of 54 candidate marker loci were produced. In the association analyses by using TASSEL software, associating markers were detected. The results explained %78 of total variation for ZYMV. The remaining 22% of the variation was possibly due to presence of additional gene(s) and environmental effect that caused lower repeatability.

Out of Scope

Dear Author Unfortunately, though your work appears to be scientifically sound, we are not able to consider your paper for publication at present and will not be sending it for review. This is not a reflection on the quality of the work, but because we are greatly over-subscribed and can only consider papers in certain subject areas. Consequently, this is not a rejection and you should not consider it as such. Policy on such matters is directed by the editorial board and the publisher, and is formulated to maximise the impact of the journal as well as control the number of papers sent out for review. Although we are responding rapidly, we have read your paper. We deliberately try and reply within a matter of days, so that authors can resubmit the paper elsewhere, quickly, and most authors appreciate this. Thank you for your interest in PJB and I am sorry the outcome was not positive on this occasion. Please note that we cannot enter into further correspondence regarding individual manuscripts.
