Abstract excerpt
Maize stalk rot, primarily caused by Fusarium spp., is a significant disease in many maize-growing areas worldwide, often leading to considerable yield losses under favorable conditions for infection. In this study, a genome-wide association study for Fusarium stalk rot resistance was carried out using 230,506 single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers on phenotypic data from 178 maize inbred lines. Four SNPs...
