Abstract: In order to speed up the selection and breeding new varieties of resistance to Phytophthora blight peppers,breeding resistant varieties is an effective way to prevent or reduce the damage of pepper disease.With the development of molecular biology,molecular marker-assisted breeding of pepper has become a fast and effective method for breeding resistant varieties.The genes of resistance to Phytophthora bligh twere identified in 40 pepper materials by molecular marker technology,and 6 molecular markers of resistance to Phytophthora blight were screened at the same time.The identification results showed that three STS molecular markers Phy-1,Phy-4 and Phy-6 had target strips,and a total of 18 materials of resistance to Phytophthora blight and 2 susceptible materials were identified.Among them,14 disease-resistant materials were screened by Phy-1,7 disease-resistant materials were screened by Phy-4. 3 materials containing 2 disease-resistant genes,and 2 disease-susceptible materials was screened by Phy-6.Using molecular markers to screen disease-resistant resources can effectively improve the process of molecular breeding of disease-resistant in pepper and lay a foundation for accelerating the breeding of new disease-resistant varieties and industrial development of pepper.
