Abstract excerpt
Maize stripe virus (MStV) is a potentially threatening virus disease of maize in the tropics. We mapped quantitative trait loci (QTLs) controlling resistance to MStV in a maize population of 157 F(2:3) families derived from the cross between two maize lines, Rev81 (tropical resistant) and B73 (temperate susceptible). Resistance was evaluated under artificial inoculations in replicated screenhouse trials across...
