Construction of high-density linkage map and identification of QTLs for resistance to sorghum downy mildew in maize (Zea mays L.)
2017-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Sorghum downy mildew (SDM), caused by obligate biotrophic fungi Peronosclerospora sorghi, is an economically important disease of maize. The genetics of resistance was reported to be polygenic thereby necessitating identification of QTLs for resistance to SDM to initiate effective marker-assisted selection programs. During post-rainy and winter season of 2012, 645 F₂:₃ progeny families from the cross CML153 (susce...
