Genetic dissection of maydis leaf blight resistance in maize through QTL mapping

QTL Mapping for Leaf Rust Resistance in a Wheat Recombinant Inbred Line Population of Liang66-S/Hengmai28

Leaf rust (LR), caused by Puccinia triticina, is a major constraint to global wheat production. Identifying quantitative trait loci (QTLs), conferring adult-plant resistance (APR), and developing breeder-friendly markers are essential for durable disease control. In this study, a recombinant inbred line (RIL) populatio...

Linkage Mapping Study Reveals Conservative QTL and Candidate Genes for Fusarium Ear Rot Resistance in Maize

A recombinant inbred line (RIL) population consisting of 257 progenies was developed by crossing the resistant line BT with the susceptible line Xi502, suggesting their potential association with FER resistance.

Identification of stripe rust resistance loci in Gansu wheat landraces using genome-wide association analysis

Response of tropical maize inbred lines to maize streak virus and major agronomic traits

Maize streak virus (MSV) is a major constraint on maize production in the dry and hot tropics, where susceptible cultivars suffer complete yield loss. The objective of this study was to assess the response of tropical-environment-adapted maize inbred lines for MSV resistance and major agronomic traits to identify p...

GWAS-Guided Development of KASP Markers Associated with Soybean Seedling Resistance to Fusarium solani

The identified loci, candidate genes, and KASP assays provide a basis for further functional validation and the development of multi-locus strategies for improving soybean resistance to Fusarium root rot.

Identifying marker-trait associations for wheat stem sawfly resistance

The positive effects of the identified small-effect MTA on CUT and SOLID indicated the importance of including these loci when breeding for WSS resistance, and the importance of including these loci outside of Sst1 to improve the overall resistance of wheat to WSS.
