| Abstract | Molecular breeding for pathogen resistance faces two major problems that delay its widespread adoption, resistance breakdown and difficulties in unambiguously identifying the alleles of the markers associated with specific resistance genes. Since the breakdown of the Rvi6 (Vf) gene in the Northern part of Europe breeders have intensified the search for new resistance sources to be introduced into their breeding programs. Alternative major genes to Rvi6 are available (e.g. Rvi2, Rvi4, Rvi5, Rvi10; Rvi11, Rvi12, Rvi13, and Rvi15, respectively Vh2, Vh4, Vm, Va, Vbj, Vb, Vd, Vr2 according to the old apple scab resistance gene nomenclature) but, with few exceptions (i.e., Rvi4, Rvi5 and, Rvi13), they have so far not been incorporated in commercial varieties. Pyramiding, i.e., combining several of these major resistance genes (R-genes) in individual plants, is one of the most promising strategies currently available to develop apple cultivars with durable apple scab resistance. But, which genes are the best suited to produce such new cultivars? Although the most interesting genes are surely those whose resistance so far has not been broken by the pathogen, genes with resistance that has been overcome coupled with only limited spread of the virulence may also be used in the pyramiding process. However, obtaining information on whether an R-gene is overcome and if so, the extent of the spread of the virulence is difficult and time consuming. Furthermore, often such reports are not up-to-date and the correctness of the data is difficult to verify. To solve these problems, the initiative “Monitoring of Venturia inaequalis virulences” has been proposed. The monitoring is based on a network of orchards of selected differential hosts. Incidence and severity of scab on these genotypes will be collected yearly; and after validation, the data will be published through the homepage of the project ( www.vinquest.ch ). Here, we present an outline of this initiative. A second major obstacle for broad adoption of marker assisted selection is the lack of tools to align marker analyzes performed in different laboratories to unambiguously identify the alleles linked to specific resistances. The identification of the alleles of the markers in coupling with the resistance genes is often very difficult, if the same genotype used to develop the markers is not simultaneously analyzed. In this paper we present an approach to standardize the size of the alleles in coupling with the resistance genes, using easily accessible cultivars. The proposed procedure has been applied to selected markers for the apple scab resistance genes Rvi2, Rvi4, Rvi5, Rvi6, Rvi11, Rvi12, Rvi13, Rvi14 and Rvi15 (respectively Vh2, Vh4, Vm, Vf, Vbj, Vb, Vd, Rvi14 and Vr2 according to the old nomenclature). |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
