The complexity of potato genetics, characterised by tetrasomic inheritance, has contributed to slower genetic gain in potato compared to other major crops. Disease resistance genes, often found in large clusters of highly similar paralogs and alleles, further complicate genetic studies. The H1 resistance locus, introgressed into potato cultivars from Solanum tuberosum spp. andigena, has been successfully used for over 60 years to control Globodera rostochiensis in Europe. Although previous genetic studies mapped this resistance to chromosome 5, the complete structure of the locus remained elusive. To reduce genomic complexity, we generated a dihaploid of the cultivar Athlete, DH4_Athlete, carrying the H1 resistance locus, and produced a phased haplotype representation of the H1 interval using Oxford Nanopore sequencing. Combined with RenSeq-based association genetics, this approach allowed us to reconstruct the entire H1 locus, including recombination points at both the 5' and 3' ends of the interval.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
