White Lupin Resistance Breeding – Anthracnose screening
The grain legume white lupin (Lupinus albus L.) is a promising local alternative for imported soybean in Europe because of its high protein content, which is perfect for the food and feed industry. However, white lupin is almost not being cultivated because of anthracnose disease, caused by the fungal pathogen Colletotrichum lupini which causes severe yield loss. Here, we present a fast screening system to identify anthracnose resistance in white lupin.
