Diploids from the tetraploid potato varieties 'Alcmaria' and 'Pansta' and from the tetraploid CPRO genotypes Y66-13-610 and Y66-13-636 were used in half-tetrad analyses to estimate the gene-centromere map distances of the genes Rx, Ry, and H1. Employing tetraploid progeny from 2x (second division restitution) – 4x testcrosses the gene-centromere map distance of H1, conferring resistance to pathotype Ro1 of Globodera rostochiensis, was estimated to be 16.3 centimorgans (cM). For Rχ, conferring extreme resistance to potato virus X (PVX), a map distance of 33.9 cM was estimated. The gene Ry, conferring extreme resistance to potato virus Y (PVY), was estimated to be located 14.2 cM from the centromere. Using the estimated map distance for Rx, it was attempted to determine the mode of 2n-pollen formation in four diploid interspecific hybrids, including the species Solanum tuberosum, Solanum chacoense, Solanum yungasense, and Solanum phureja, by half-tetrad analysis in tetraploid progeny from 4x-2x testcrosses. The mean frequency of 8.7% nulliplex plants for Rx was outside the range of the 95% confidence intervals, for both first division restitution and second division restitution 2n pollen.Key words: nematode resistance, potato virus X resistance, potato virus Y resistance, 2n eggs, gene-centromere mapping, Solanum.

Flue-cured tobacco is an important crop in Henan Province, China. During the 2000 growing season, many tobacco plants showed various degrees of mottling, mosaic, vein clearing, or vein necrosis in most of the counties. Some plants even died at an early stage of growth. A survey was conducted in May-June in several tobacco-growing counties, and the incidence of symptomatic plants in individual fields ranged from 10 to 85%. The most widely planted tobacco varieties, NC89, K326, and K346, were highly susceptible. Symptomatic plants were collected from Jiaxian and Xiangcheng counties and samples were tested by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV), Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV), Potato virus Y (PVY), and Potato virus X (PVX). Of 65 samples tested, 21 were positive for only PVY, 16 positive for only CMV, one each was positive for only TMV or PVX. Nineteen samples were doubly infected with various combinations of these viruses and six were infected with combinations of three viruses. The causal agent(s) in the remaining sample could not be determined. In total, CMV was detected in 40 samples, PVY in 38, PVX in 10, and TMV in 7 samples. TMV and CMV used to be the most important viruses and PVY occurred only rarely. But PVY has become prevalent in Henan and in neighboring Shandong province (2). CMV and TMV were reported to be the most prevalent viruses in Shanxi (1) and Fujian Provinces (3). Because resistant varieties are not available, and mixed infections are more common, the results presented here explain why huge damage is occurring in tobacco crops in recent years. Some varieties are partially resistant to TMV and CMV but the varieties commonly grown are highly susceptible to PVY. Therefore, breeding for resistance to viruses, especially to PVY, is urgent to control the occurrence of tobacco viral diseases. References: (1) J. L. Cheng et al. Acta Tabacaria Sin. 4:43, 1998.
