" That provides us with a unique
opportunity to take these resistances
and combine them as soon as we can
so that we have a strong barrier against
pathogen evolution, " said Hein. " That's
where we want to go with our project. "
MORE FINDINGS
The project was to begin in
December, but preliminary data was
submitted with the grant proposal.
It looks promising enough that Hein
received the grant.
The team of researchers has since
conducted a survey of UK, Dutch and
U.S. varieties, as well as some varieties
from China and South Korea. They
were able to quickly determine that the
same resistance genes have been used
over and over again, particularly in the
UK and the U.S.
" There are some exceptions, " said
Hein. " There are some resistances that
are used in Europe that are not widely
used in the U.S., and we have a little bit of
evidence that the pathogen population
in the U.S. has consequently changed
compared to what it is in Europe. "

The project will run for three
years and involves two commercial
companies, McCain and Greenvale.
Some headway has already been
made.
" We've identified some very good
sources of resistances in varieties
already. We have set up crosses with our
own breeding companies to combine
these resistances, " Hein said. " That's
going to be key. A single resistance is
not going to hold out a long time.
" If we have complementary
resistances combined, you stand a much
better chance of having something
more durable. "
