Özet
Root knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) are significant agricultural pests on many crops, including pepper (Capsicum annuum). Host plant resistance offers the most sustainable means of controlling this pest. A cluster of genes on chromosome 9 confers resistance, with Me1 providing protection against three nematode species: M. incognita, M. javanica and M. arenaria. We describe the development of a codominant CAPS marker located 1.13 cM away from the Me1 gene. This marker should be useful for marker assisted selection of nematode resistance in pepper breeding programs.
