Abstract excerpt
KEY MESSAGE: GWAS analysis revealed variations at loci harboring seed storage, late embryogenesis abundant protein, and a tannin biosynthesis gene associated with sorghum grain mold resistance. Grain mold is the most important disease of sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench]. It starts at the early stages of grain development due to concurrent infection by multiple fungal species. The genetic architecture of...
