Genome-wide Association Study Identifies New Loci for Resistance to Sclerotinia Stem Rot in Brassica napus

Sclerotinia stem rot (SSR) caused by the necrotrophic fungus Sclerotinia sclerotiorum is a major disease in rapeseed (Brassica napus) worldwide. Breeding for SSR resistance in B. napus, as in other crops, relies only on germplasms with quantitative resistance genes. A better understanding of the genetic basis for SSR resistance in B. napus thus holds promise for the genetic improvement of disea...

evaluation of resistance of canola cultivars against sclerotinia sclerotiorum, the causal agent of white stem rot, using cotyledon test

sclerotinia stem rot (white stem rot), an important fungal disease, which is caused by sclerotinia sclerotiorum, is one of the serious diseases of various plants such as canola. use of resistant cultivars is an effective method to control the disease. a greenhouse experiment based on cotyledon inoculation using mycelial suspension of two different isolates of s. sclerotiorum was conducted to ev...

Development and Evaluation of Glycine max Germplasm Lines with Quantitative Resistance to Sclerotinia sclerotiorum

Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, the causal agent of Sclerotinia stem rot, is a devastating fungal pathogen of soybean that can cause significant yield losses to growers when environmental conditions are favorable for the disease. The development of resistant varieties has proven difficult. However, poor resistance in commercial cultivars can be improved through additional breeding efforts and underst...
