Abstract excerpt
Fusarium head blight (FHB), caused by Fusarium species, is a major threat to global wheat production, reducing yield and quality and contaminating grain with harmful mycotoxins. This study utilized a genome-wide association study to investigate FHB resistance in a diverse collection of 300 hexaploid wheat (T. aestivum L.) pure lines selected for their FHB resistance from 4,000 Triticum accessions obtained from...
