Overview

Genetic analysis identifies Fusarium species resistance in maize, suggesting strategies for enhanced breeding.

Key Points

  • This research aims to clarify maize's genetic resistance to Fusarium stalk rot and identify key resistance genes.
  • Utilized highly resistant maize inbred line H1710 and susceptible line Huangzaosi for hybridization and backcrossing.
  • Constructed segregating populations along with a resistance/susceptibility pool from the F2 population.
  • Conducted BSA-seq analysis to identify candidate regions associated with stalk rot resistance.
  • Identified a candidate region on chromosome 6 spanning 3.98 Mb containing 38 genes related to resistance.
  • Localized two candidate genes, Zm00001eb260120 and Zm00001eb260260, linked to stalk rot resistance through KASP markers.
