Testing methods and statistical models of genomic prediction for quantitative disease resistance to Phytophthora sojae in soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr] germplasm collections
Genomic prediction of quantitative resistance toward Phytophthora sojae indicated that genomic selection may increase breeding efficiency. Statistical model and marker set had minimal effect on genomic prediction...

Open AccessGenome-wide association study of seed protein, oil and amino acid contents in soybean from maturity groups I to IV
Genomic regions associated with seed protein, oil and amino acid contents were identified by genome-wide association analyses. Geographic distributions of haplotypes indicate scope of improvement of these traits.

Open AccessIdentification and map** of quantitative trait loci (QTL) conferring resistance to Fusarium graminearum from soybean PI 567301B
A major novel QTL was identified in a recombinant inbred line population derived from a cross of ‘Wyandot’ × PI 567301B for Fusarium graminearum, a seed and ...

Joint linkage QTL analyses for partial resistance to Phytophthora sojae in soybean using six nested inbred populations with heterogeneous conditions
Partial resistance to Phytophthora sojae in soybean is controlled by multiple quantitative trait loci (QTL). With traditional QTL map** approaches, power to detect such QTL, frequently of small effect, can be l...

An intra-specific linkage map of lettuce (Lactuca sativa) and genetic analysis of postharvest discolouration traits
Minimally processed salad packs often suffer from discolouration on cut leaf edges within a few days after harvest. This limits shelf life of the product and results in high wastage. Recombinant inbred lines (...

Open AccessNovel quantitative trait loci for partial resistance to Phytophthora sojae in soybean PI 398841
Phytophthora root and stem rot caused by Phytophthora sojae Kaufmann and Gerdemann is one of the most severe soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr] diseases in the USA. Partial resistance is as effective in managing thi...

Open AccessHybridization between crops and wild relatives: the contribution of cultivated lettuce to the vigour of crop–wild hybrids under drought, salinity and nutrient deficiency conditions
With the development of transgenic crop varieties, crop–wild hybridization has received considerable consideration with regard to the potential of transgenes to be transferred to wild species. Although many st...

The inheritance of resistance to Verticillium wilt caused by race 1 isolates of Verticillium dahliae in the lettuce cultivar La Brillante
Verticillium wilt of lettuce caused by Verticillium dahliae can cause severe economic damage to lettuce producers. Complete resistance to race 1 isolates is available in Lactuca sativa cultivar (cv.) La Brillante...

The genomic architecture of disease resistance in lettuce
Genbank and The Compositae Genome Project database, containing over 42,000 lettuce unigenes from Lactuca sativa cv. Salinas and L. serriola accession UC96US23 were mined to identify 702 candidate genes involved i...
