AC Gayed is a flue-cured tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) cultivar bred at the Pest Management Research Centre of Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada. It is a a black root rot (Chalara elegans) resistant, backcross derivative of Delgold (ST205/PB19//*5 Delgold) (Pandeya and White 1984). The resistance gene originated from Nicotiana debneyi. AC Gayed is adapted to the tobacco production areas of Ontario. It has similar grade index, but slightly lower yield than Delgold when grown in disease-free conditions. Key words: Nicotiana tabacum, black root rot resistance, backcross

AC Maridel is a flue-cured tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) cultivar bred collaboratively by the Pest Management Research Centre and the Charlottetown Research Centre of Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada. It is a cultivar with high yield, improved leaf quality and is resistant to black root rot (Chalara elegans). It resulted from crosses between two breeding lines originally selected at Delhi (80M11/80K2G). AC Maridel is adapted to the tobacco growing areas of Prince Edward Island. Key words: Nicotiana tabacum, black root rot resistance

The effects of Nicotiana debneyi-derived resistance to black root rot disease were evaluated for yield, agronomic and quality traits by comparing the near isogenic cultivars AC Gayed (resistant) and Delgold (susceptible). Over 7 yr of trials the possession of resistance led to yields and economic returns that averaged 6 and 7% lower, respectively, than for the susceptible line.

CT681 is a flue-cured tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) cultivar with high yield and grade index, and provides significantly higher economic returns togrowers. Company evaluations are higher than the checks, and percent lamina is high. CT681 is resistant to black root rot [Thielaviopsis basicola (Berk. & Broome) Ferraris] disease. Key words: Nicotiana tabacum L., tobacco, cultivar description

The RAPD marker UBC4181050, tightly linked in coupling with the Nicotiana debneyi gene for resistance to black root rot (Chalara elegans Nag Raj and Kendrick; Syn. Thielaviopsis basicola [Berk. and Broome] Ferraris), has been cloned and sequenced. The terminal 10 bases of this RAPD marker exactly match the sequence of the primer UBC418. UBC4181050 was restricted into 6 subfragments of 75, 91, 110, 174, 274, and 336 bp (the accession numbers for these 6 subfragments in the GenBank Data Base are U84217, U84218, U84219, U84220, U84221, and U84222, respectively) by combined restriction with HindIII and RsaI. The entire UBC4181050 marker and its 6 subfragments were used as probes in RFLP analyses. The RFLP analyses were performed on 'Delgold' tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.), the tobacco plants (2n = 48) recovered from the somatic hybrids between 'Delgold' and N. debneyi, the 'Delgold' tobacco translocation line carrying the N. debneyi gene for resistance to black root rot, the 'Delgold' tobacco addition lines carrying various N. debneyi chromosomes, and an additional 27 species in the genus Nicotiana. The analyses indicated that UBC4181050 is composed of at least 6 different repetitive DNA elements that are independently interspersed in N. debneyi genomes. Three of them (subfragments of 91, 274, and 336 bp) are N. debneyi specific. The N. debneyi specific repetitive DNA elements are distributed primarily within the taxonomic section (Suaveolentes) to which N. debneyi belongs.Key words: RAPD, repetitive DNA, Nicotiana debneyi, species-specific.
