Analysis of leaf microbiome composition of near-isogenic maize lines differing in broad-spectrum disease resistance
2019-05-24
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> Plant genotype strongly affects disease resistance, and also influences the composition of the leaf microbiome. However, these processes have not been studied and linked in the microevolutionary context of breeding for improved disease resistance. We hypothesized that broad-spectrum disease resistance alleles also affect colonization by non-pathogenic symbionts. Quantitative trait loci (QTL) conf...
