Abstract excerpt
Fusarium head blight (FHB) is one of the most important wheat diseases that causes yield and quality losses as well as contamination with deoxynivalenol (DON). This study aimed for marker-based introduction of three previously mapped QTLs from two German winter wheat resistance sources into an elite background unrelated to the mapping population. A double cross (DC) served as initial population that combined two...
