Clubroot resistance derived from the European Brassica napus cv. 'Tosca' is not effective against virulent Plasmodiophora brassicae isolates from Alberta, Canada.

ABSTRACT: In this study, clubroot resistance in the resynthesized European winter Brassica napus cv. 'Tosca' was introgressed into a Canadian spring canola line '11SR0099', which was then crossed with the clubroot susceptible spring line '12DH0001' to produce F₁ seeds. The F₁ plants were used to develop a doubled haploid (DH) mapping population. The parents and the DH lines were screened against 'old' pathotypes 2F, 3H, 5I, 6M and 8N of the clubroot pathogen, Plasmodiophora brassicae, as well as against the 'new' pathotypes 5X, 5L, 2B, 3A, 3D, 5G, 8E, 5C, 8J, 5K, 3O and 8P. Genotyping was conducted using a Brassica 15K SNP array. The clubroot screening showed that 'Tosca, '11SR0099' and the resistant DH lines were resistant to three (2F, 3H and 5I) of the five 'old' pathotypes
