Identification of charcoal rot resistance QTLs in sorghum using association and in silico analyses.

Abstract excerpt

Charcoal rot disease, a root and stem disease caused by the soil-borne fungus Macrophomina phaseolina (Tassi) Goid., is a major biotic stress that limits sorghum productivity worldwide. Charcoal rot resistance-related parameters, e.g., pre-emergence damping-off%, post-emergence damping-off%, charcoal rot disease severity, and plant survival rates, were measured in a structured sorghum population consisting of 107...
