I have something like this in ~/.ssh/known_hosts
on my Linux machine:
@cert-authority * ssh-rsa pubkeypubkeypubkey
And any server with a signed host key is automatically trusted by the OpenSSH client.
I regularly use PuTTY on my Windows PC. How do I achieve something similar?

CA certificate authentication as implemented by OpenSSH is not supported by PuTTY (yet).
No evidence of such a feature is found in the current ChangeLog and as a feature request it is also still listed as open on the PuTTY WishList
