Nuova razza di Bremia nella lattuga, Bl: 36EU identificata e nominata in Europa

Source: Plantum

The International Bremia Evaluation Board Europe (IBEB-EU) has collected more than 300 Bremia isolates in European lettuce in 2018 and compared them with the 500 Isolates found in 2017. Most isolates in 2018 belonged to local races. However, one race already spotted in 2016 and 2017 appeared to spread over large distances and was isolated in various centers of lettuce production. The IBEB-EU decided to denominate this isolate as new race Bl: 36EU.

Bl: 36EU is widely spread in Europe and is found in France, Germany, the Netherlands, Italy, Austria, Switzerland and Scandinavia. This race may be described as a more virulent variant of Bl: 34EU, able to break one additional resistance source.

BASF Vegetable Seeds offers a wide range of lettuce varieties, with broad resistance patterns and most resistant to this new race Bl:36EU.
Updated resistance information of the Nunhems lettuce assortment can be found in the lettuce crop tables on our local websites.
