Abstract excerpt
KEY MESSAGE: Developing genetically resistant soybean cultivars is key in controlling the destructive Sclerotinia Stem Rot (SSR) disease. Here, a GWAS study in Canadian soybeans identified potential marker-trait associations and candidate genes, paving the way for more efficient breeding methods for SSR. Sclerotinia stem rot (SSR), caused by the fungal pathogen Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, is one of the most...
