  • The technique of plant transformation has started to show off its great power in the area of plant breeding by commercially successful introduction of transgenic varieties such as herbicide tolerant soybean and insect resistant corn in USA with an unimaginable speed. However, in contrast with the great success in the commercialization of herbicide tolerance and insect resistance, the transformation works on disease resistance has not yet reached the stage of full commercialization. This review surveys the current status of molecular breeding for plant disease resistance and their limits and problems. Some novel ideas and approaches in molecular breeding for disease resistance are introduced.

  • Resource plants are important and have strong potential for a variety of utilities as crops or pharmaceutical materials. However, most resource plants remain wild and thus their utility for breeding and biotechnology is limited. Molecular markers are useful to initiate genetic study and molecular breeding for these understudied resource plants. We collected various wild collections of Peucedanum japonicum which is indigenous resource plants utilized as oriental medicine and leafy vegetables in Korea. In this study, we produced two independent whole genome sequences (WGSs) from two collections and identified large scale polymorphic simple sequence repeat (pSSR) based on our pipeline to develop SSR markers based on comparison of two WGSs. We identified a total of 452 candidate pSSR contigs. To confirm the accuracy and utility of pSSR, we designed ten SSR primer pairs and successfully applied those to seven collections of P. japonicum. The WGS and pSSR candidates identified in this study will be useful resource for genetic research and breeding purpose for the valuable resource plant, P. japonicum.
