Abstract excerpt
The major quantitative trait locus (QTL) qHS2.09 plays an important role in resistance to head smut during maize breeding and production. In this study, a near-isogenic line (NIL), L34, which harbors the major QTL qHS2.09 in bin 2.09, was developed using a resistant donor 'Mo17' in a susceptible genetic background 'Huangzao4'. Using 18,683 genome-wide polymorphic loci, this major QTL was finely mapped into an...
