Recombination at the Rp1 locus of maize.
Molecular & general genetics : MGG - 1 May 1991
Hulbert S H, Bennetzen J L
Abstract excerpt
The Rp1 locus of maize determines resistance to races of the maize rust fungus (Puccinia sorghi). Restriction fragment length polymorphism markers that closely flank Rp1 were mapped and used to study the genetic fine structure and role of recombination in the instability of this locus. Susceptible progeny, lacking the resistance of either parent, were obtained from test cross progeny of several Rp1 heterozygotes....
