Type III effectors play a vital role in the establishment of symbiosis. In this study, positive and negative effects NopT on nodulation were detected 30 soybean germplasms. The quantitative trait loci (QTL) related to nodule number identified their responses recombinant inbred lines chromosome segment substitution evaluated. Ten QTL chromosomes 02, 05, 06, 10, 13. One overlapping region 02 was ...

Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) is an important crop originated in Africa that shows susceptibility to herbivores. In this study, we identified two sorghum genotypes with highly contrasting levels of stem damage caused by the caterpillars Asian borer (Ostrinia furnacalis Guenée). Recombinant inbred lines (RILs) from genetic cross between resistant (BTx623) and susceptible (NOG) were used ...
