The interaction between the fungus Leptosphaeria maculans and
oilseed rape (Brassica napus) is becoming an excellent model system
for studying genetics of host-pathogen interactions. Leptosphaeria
maculans causes phoma stem canker (blackleg) on oilseed rape and
other Brassica crops worldwide. Recently, application of molecular
techniques has led to increased understanding of the genetics of
this hemibiotrophic interaction. The complete sequences of the
genomes of L. maculans and B. rapa (comprising the Brassica A
genome) will be available soon. This will provide new opportunities
to investigate basic metabolic pathways in the host and the
pathogen, and detailed knowledge of the disease process. Worldwide,
the major strategy for control of phoma stem canker is the use of
cultivars with resistance to L. maculans.
