ABSTRACT Clubroot, caused by the biotrophic protist Plasmodiophora brassicae , is a devastating root disease that affects all members of Brassicaceae family. Significant progress has been made in understanding its occurrence, life cycle and management strategies. This posed considerable threat to producers breeders globally, including South Asia. The reported India, Nepal parts Bangladesh, Bhutan, Pakistan Sri Lanka. cool moist climatic conditions northern Himalayan belt, combined with acidic soils inadequate systems, are key factors, particularly areas India prone clubroot outbreaks. Disease strategies currently focus on soil amendments, use synthetic fungicides fumigants application resistant genotypes. However, limited research conducted modes transmission. Recent studies revealed contaminated infected seedlings major contributors spread pathogen. Brassica crops such as B. juncea (mustard), napus (canola) oleracea (cabbage) vulnerable. cultivars like ‘Midas’ ‘Big Sun 111’, ‘Nepa Star’ ‘Kathmandu Local’, have identified Nepal, offering some potential for mitigating disease. To combat effectively, there an urgent need integrated development genetic materials. These efforts should involve diverse stakeholders, producers, industries, government sectors academicians, aiming advance challenges bridging critical

Arabidopsis thaliana is a powerful plant model for functional biology, genetics and, more recently, population genomics. The Versailles Stock Center collects, produces, preserves, characterizes and distributes various biological resources. Besides large collections of mutants, including homozygous mutant lines, this stock centre offers numerous natural genotypes collected worldwide, as well resources resulting from crosses between these variants. Most the are unique can be useful to wide range users, ensuring cumulative characterization same material over time. They accompanied by molecular characterization, genotyping or sequencing data, enabling analysis diversity’s impact, particularly on complex traits. made easily reliably available through an information system comprising database web portal description distribution (https://publiclines.versailles.inrae.fr/). Several thousand seed lots provided each year international scientific community.
