Abstract excerpt
KEY MESSAGE: QTL mapping combined with genome-wide association studies, revealed a potential candidate gene for resistance to northern leaf blight in the tropical CATETO-related maize line YML226, providing a basis for marker-assisted selection of maize varieties Northern leaf blight (NLB) is a foliar disease that can cause severe yield losses in maize. Identifying and utilizing NLB-resistant genes is the most...
