Overview

This study assesses genetic diversity and resistance to fusarium stalk rot in maize populations, indicating key traits for further breeding.

Key Points

  • Resistance was identified in six maize genotypes through phenotypic and molecular evaluations during the study.
  • Molecular screening with 10 SSR markers effectively distinguished resistant genotypes associated with fusarium stalk rot.
  • Genetic variability analysis using Mahalanobis’ D² statistics classified genotypes into three distinct clusters based on their traits.
  • The findings highlight the potential of identified resistant lines for enhancing maize production and disease resilience.
