The golden and white potato cyst nematodes (Globodera rostochiensis and G. pallida, respectively) are devastating quarantine pests of potatoes. The most widely distributed pathotype of the golden nematode, Ro1, is well controlled by the H1 resistance gene. A pathotype that overcomes H1, Ro2, has been detected on several farms in New York State. To map Ro2 resistance gene(s), two autotetraploid parental clones - NY121 (Ro2 resistant) and NY115 (susceptible) - along with 182 F1 offspring were genotyped with 8303 SNP markers, and the resistance of each clone to Ro2 was assessed with a greenhouse pot assay. Analysis with TetraploidSNPMap identified two Ro2 resistance QTL on chromosome 5: one QTL was located at 26 cM and explained 24.4% of the variation for resistance, while the second at 59 cM co-localized with a marker (57R) known to be tightly linked to H1 and explained 23.8% of the residual variation. Subsequent inoculation with G. pallida revealed that the chromosome 5 locus at 26 cM also conferred some resistance against pathotype Pa2/3, explaining 9.2% of the variation. A second QTL that increased susceptibility to Pa2/3 was located at 15 cM on chromosome 10, and explained 6.9% of the variation. The resistance gene(s) at 26 cM on chromosome 5 may correspond to previously described Grp1; a marker diagnostic for this region would be useful for applied potato breeding.
