An industry perspective on whole genome-informed hybrid maize disease resistance characterization to improve breeding decisions
2026-08-05
Abstract excerpt
Characterizing hybrid maize disease resistance is a costly and labor-intensive effort in commercial breeding programs. Field trials are carefully inoculated and managed but remain error-prone due to spatial variability in disease pressure, microclimatic conditions and inter-rater variability. Quantitative ordinal disease rating scales are used to increase scoring speed at the expense of resolution, accuracy, and t...
