Abstract

For the involvement of Rhizomania resistance genes in
breeding programs, tagging these genes by molecular
markers is necessary. In this study, some breeding
populations and commercial varieties of sugar beet
originated from Holly source were used for the validation
of three repulsion SCAR molecular markers correlated with
ELISA and field resistance. Comparison between ELISA
and field resistance and molecular markers showed that
repulsion marker ZN5 had 96% and 98% agreement with
ELISA and field resistance, respectively with 95% and 100%
presence in susceptible and resistant varieties, respectively.
Therefore, this marker can be used for screening of
homozygous lines resistant to rhizomania originated from
Rz1 gene source.
