Abstract excerpt
Much effort has been directed at identifying sources of resistance to Fusarium head blight (FHB) in wheat. We sought to identify molecular markers for what we hypothesized was a new major FHB resistance locus originating from the wheat cultivar 'Freedom' and introgressed into the susceptible wheat cultivar 'USU-Apogee'. An F2:3 mapping population from a cross between Apogee and A30, its BC4 near-isoline...
