Uncovering the roles of lignin-related genes in disease resistance in maize using mutant and association analysis

2022-04-10

Abstract excerpt

Brown midrib (BMR) maize harbors mutations that result in lower lignin levels and higher feed digestibility, making it a desirable silage market class for ruminant nutrition. Northern leaf blight (NLB) epidemics in upstate NY highlighted the disease susceptibility of commercially grown BMR maize hybrids. We found the bm1, bm2, bm3 and bm4 mutants in a W64A genetic background to be more susceptible to foliar fung...
