A Bayesian approach to analyze complex traits is presented that can help plant eneticists and breeders in exploiting the marker and phenotypic data on pedigreed populations as available from ongoing breeding programs. The statistical model for the quantitative trait may include non-genetic and genetic components. The latter component can be divided into QTL on known marker linkage groups, major genes...
Broad tolerance to phytophthora root rot (PRR) caused by Phytophthora sojae has become an important goal for the improvement of soybean (Glycine max) because of the rapid spread of races that defeat the available resistance genes. The aim of this research was to identify the location of quantitative trait loci (QTL) in ‘Conrad’, a soybean cultivar with broad tolerance to many races of P. sojae. A...
Fusarium head blight (FHB) caused by Fusarium species, is among the most devastating wheat diseases, causing losses in numerous sectors of the grain industry through yield and quality reduction, and the accumulation of poisonous mycotoxins. A germplasm collection of spring and winter wheat, including nine reference cultivars, was tested for Type II FHB resistance and deoxynivalenol (DON) content....
