Results indicated that 83 % of the genotypes showed at least a marker allele for the CMD2 gene (data not shown as the dataset is too large). If CMD2 was responsible for all the resistance observed in the F1 families, it would imply that the markers associated
with the gene was 83 % successful in identifying resistant genotypes in the phenotypically selected resistant individuals analysed with molecular markers.
A total of 88 individuals (17 %) had all four marker alleles associated with the CMD2 gene. A total of 179 individuals had between one to three marker alleles each associated with CMD2. A total of 91 individuals
had no marker allele associated with the CMD2 gene.
