Abstract excerpt
A major emphasis in maize breeding in Asian countries has been the improvement for resistance to downy mildew, a serious disease that causes significant yield losses. A total of 102 inbred lines, including lines from Asian breeding programs, Mexico, USA and Germany, were analyzed with 76 SSR markers to measure diversity and investigate the effect of selection for downy mildew resistance. A mean polymorphism inform...
