The invention relates to pepper plants and lines having resistance to Powdery Mildew, caused by the fungus. The invention also relates to parts of pepper plants from lines having Powdery Mildew resistance, including seeds capable of growing pepper plants with Powdery Mildew resistance, and fruit. Methods for the identification, use and breeding of Powdery Mildew resistant pepper plants are also provided.

Methods and compositions for producing capsicum plants with powdery mildew resistance

The present invention relates to tomato plants that exhibit resistance toand methods for developing new inbreds, hybrid, apomictic and genetically engineered tomato plants that possess resistance toand having commercially desirable characteristics.

The present invention provides gene targets, constructs and methods for the genetic control of plant disease caused by multiple plant viruses. The present invention relates to achieving a plant protective effect through the identification of target coding sequences and the use of recombinant DNA technologies for post-transcriptionally repressing or inhibiting expression of the target coding sequences of plant-parasitic viruses. Protein-expression based approaches may also be utilized to augment phenotype resistance. Thus, transcription of a single transgenic event comprising one or more plant expression cassettes can allow for broad spectrum resistance of a plant to multiple plant viral strains and species among the geminiviruses, tospoviruses, and potexviruses.

The present invention involves tomato plants (Lycopersicon esculentum) that are resistant to the tomato strain of P. infestans races 0 and 1. Lycopersicon pimpinellifolium plants which are resistant to the tomato strain of P. infestans races 0 and 1 are used to construct the tomato plants of the present invention. The preferred Lycopersicon pimpinellifolium used in the present invention is designated as LA 2533.
