Abstract:

Brassicaceae clubroot is a kind of soil-borne disease caused by Plasmodiophora brassicae. The disease threatens the safe production of cash crops such as Chinese cabbage, cabbage and radish. Molecular marker-assisted selection (MAS) has become an economical and effective method for breeding resistant varieties. Based on published research reports on clubroot-resistance, this paper summarizes the published clubroot-resistance genes, molecular markers and the latest achievements in breeding, discusses the existing difficulties in clubroot-resistance research and breeding, and provides theoretical reference for future clubroot-resistance breeding work.

Key words: clubroot disease, resistance gene, molecular markers, breeding
