Two genes, CsLRR-RPK2 (CsGy5G015660) and CsaMLO8 (Csa5G623470), have been considered as powdery mildew (PM) resistance genes in cucumbers. In this study, we evaluated the involvement of the alleles of these two genes in PM resistance in 100 commercial Korean cucumber inbred lines. To achieve this, we developed cleaved amplified polymorphic sequences (CAPS) and InDel markers from CsLRR-RPK2 and CsaMLO8. Genotyping analysis indicated that the CsLRR-RPK2-CAPS marker showed a stronger correlation with the PM-resistant phenotype, with an 84% consistency compared to the CsaMLO8-InDel marker. The use of the CsaMLO8-InDel marker showed a 70% consistency between phenotype and genotype results. It was proposed that the CsLRR-RPK2-CAPS marker successfully eliminated PM-susceptible inbred lines, since both genotype and phenotype results were 100% identical. Furthermore, the present study revealed that the introduction of one of these alleles is probably enough to confer PM resistance in cucumbers. However, seven PM-resistant inbred lines harbored either CsaMLO8 or CsLRR-RPK2 alleles, indicating that there is another PM-resistant resource(s) besides CsaMLO8- and CsLRR-RPK2–originated resistance in the commercial Korean inbred lines. Our results provide reliable evidence confirming two PM-resistant candidate genes for the detection of PM resistance resources in cucumber inbred lines.
