Identification of Photosynthetic Mutants of Arabidopsis by Automatic Screening for Altered Effective Quantum Yield of Photosystem 2
Quantification of chlorophyll (Chl) fluorescence is a versatile tool for analysing the photosynthetic performance of plants in a non-intrusive manner. A pulse-amplitude modulated fluorometer was combined with ...

RFLP- and physical map** of resistance gene homologues in rice (O. sativa) and Barley (H. vulgare)
The deduced peptide sequences of 25 gene fragments of NBS-LRR resistance (R) gene homologues from rice and barley and of characterized R genes were compared, revealing a string of six conserved motifs. Map** o...

Construction of a potato YAC library and identification of clones linked to the disease resistance loci R1 and Gro1
A yeast artificial chromosome (YAC) library was constructed from high-molecular-weight DNA of potato (Solanum tuberosum). Potato DNA fragments obtained after complete digestion with four different rare-cutter re...

A potato hypersensitive resistance gene against potato virus X maps to a resistance gene cluster on chromosome 5
The dominant Nb gene of potato confers strain-specific hypersensitive resistance against potato virus X (PVX). A population segregating for Nb was screened for resistance by inoculating with PVX strain CP2, whic...
