| heal.abstract |
Economic viability of a sugar beet crop largely depends on its successful protection against rhizomania, a most devastating disease that causes severe losses in root yield, sucrose content and quality. Rhizomania disease is caused by Beet necrotic yellow vein virus (BNYVV), a virus present in most sugar beet growing regions being vectored by the widely spread soil borne protoctist Polymyxa betae Keskin. The only practical means to control the disease is the use of genetically resistant varieties and, to date, such resistance is mainly based on a dominant gene (Rz1) that when present confers a sufficiently high level of protection against BNYVV. However, the emergence of virus strains capable of compromising the resistance employed in commercial varieties as well as a possible spread of more pathogenic isolates threatens crop's protection efficiency in the future. All these point to the necessity for exploiting new and more effective genetic sources of rhizomania resistance, both by classical and molecular breeding approaches, a practice that is being pursued by the relevant breeding firms. This article critically reviews the various issues related to the disease and its management and particularly to the ones pertaining to pathogen genetic diversity, types of genetic resistance currently employed, as well as to novel biotechnological approaches aiming at the development of better resisting cultivars. © 2011 Elsevier B.V. |
