Abstract excerpt
Verticillium wilt disease is one of the most destructive biotic stresses faced by cotton plants. Here, we performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) in 215 Chinese Gossypium arboreum accessions inoculated as seedlings with Verticillium dahliae to identify candidate loci involved in wilt resistance. We identified 309 loci that had a significant association with Verticillium wilt resistance and - log(P)...
