Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are effectively applied to detect the marker trait
associations (MTAs) using whole genome-wide variants for complex quantitative traits in …

Genome-wide association study (GWAS) and genomic prediction (GP) are extensively
employed to accelerate genetic gain and identify QTL in plant breeding. In this study, 1,317 …

Septoria tritici blotch (STB) caused by the fungal pathogen Zymoseptoria tritici and powdery
mildew (PM) caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp tritici (Bgt) are among the forefront foliar …

Quantitative resistance is considered more durable than qualitative resistance as it does not
involve major resistance genes that can be easily overcome by pathogen populations, but …

Septoria tritici blotch (STB) disease caused by Zymoseptoria tritici is one of the most
damaging diseases of wheat causing significant yield losses worldwide. Identification and …

Zymoseptoria tritici is the causative fungal pathogen of septoria tritici blotch (STB) disease of
wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) that continuously threatens wheat crops in Ireland and …

Background Septoria tritici blotch (STB), caused by the foliar fungus Zymoseptoria tritici, is
one of the most damaging disease of wheat in Europe. Genetic resistance against this …

Introduction Septoria tritici blotch (STB) is one of the most damaging fungal diseases of
wheat in Europe, largely due to the paucity of effective resistance genes against it in …

Kernel moisture content at harvest stage (KMC) is an important factor affecting maize
production, especially for mechanical harvesting. We investigated the genetic basis of KMC …

Septoria leaf blotch is a foliar wheat disease controlled by a combination of plant genetic
resistances and fungicides use. R-gene-based qualitative resistance durability is limited due …
