Marker-assisted introgression of qHSR1 to improve maize resistance to head smut
2012-08-01
Abstract excerpt
Head smut, one of the most devastating diseases in maize, causes severe yield losses worldwide. Resistance to head smut has been proven to be a quantitative inherited trait. In our previous study, a major resistance quantitative trait locus (named qHSR1) was detected on maize chromosome 2 (bin 2.09), and a number of molecular markers have been developed in the qHSR1 region. Here, we report the marker-assisted intr...
