Abstract excerpt
KEY MESSAGE: Wheat lines with shortened Th. ponticum chromatin carrying Fhb7 and molecular markers linked to Fhb7 will accelerate the transfer of Fhb7 to breeding lines and provide an important resource for future map-based cloning of this gene. Fusarium head blight is a major wheat disease globally. A major FHB resistance gene, designated as Fhb7, derived from Thinopyrum ponticum, was earlier transferred to...
