AFLP analysis of genetic variability in New Guinea impatiens
New Guinea impatiens (Impatiens hawkeri) is an economically important floral crop, however, little work has been conducted to further our understanding of the genetics of this crop. In this study, we used amplif...

Delimiting a rice wide-compatibility gene S 5 n to a 50 kb region
Wide-compatibility (WC) is one of the most important traits in rice, which can overcome the fertility barrier in the indica/japonica hybrids, and hence to make it possible to utilize the higher yield potential of...

Genome-wide isolation of resistance gene analogs in maize (Zea mays L.)
Conserved domains or motifs shared by most known resistance (R) genes have been extensively exploited to identify unknown R-gene analogs (RGAs). In an attempt to isolate all potential RGAs from the maize genome, ...

Map** of genome-wide resistance gene analogs (RGAs) in maize (Zea mays L.)
Isolation and map** of genome-wide resistance (R) gene analogs (RGAs) is of importance in identifying candidate(s) for a particular resistance gene/QTL. Here we reported our result in map** totally 228 genome...

Identification and fine-map** of a major QTL conferring resistance against head smut in maize
Head smut is one of the most devastating diseases in maize, causing severe yield loss worldwide. Here we report identification and fine-map** of a major quantitative trait locus (QTL) conferring resistance t...

A major QTL for resistance to Gibberella stalk rot in maize
Fusarium graminearum Schwabe, the conidial form of Gibberella zeae, is the causal fungal pathogen responsible for Gibberella stalk rot of maize. Using a BC1F1 backcross map** population derived from a cross bet...

Fine-map** of qRfg2, a QTL for resistance to Gibberella stalk rot in maize
Stalk rot is one of the most devastating diseases in maize worldwide. In our previous study, two QTLs, a major qRfg1 and a minor qRfg2, were identified in the resistant inbred line ‘1145’ to confer resistance to

Allelic variation for a candidate gene for GS7, responsible for grain shape in rice
Grain shape is an important component of end-use quality in rice. The genomic location of the grain shape QTL GS7 was narrowed to lie within a 4.8-kb segment on chromosome 7. The homologous region in cv. Nipponba...

Effects of the quantitative trait locus qPss3 on inhibition of photoperiod sensitivity and resistance to stalk rot disease in maize
We identified a quantitative trait locus, qPss3 , and fine-mapped the causal locus to a 120-kb interval in maize. This locus inhibits the photoperiod sensit...

OsMAPK6 positively regulates rice cold tolerance at seedling stage via phosphorylating and stabilizing OsICE1 and OsIPA1
Rice is a chilling-sensitive plant, and extremely low temperatures seriously decrease rice production. Several genes involved in chilling stress have been reported in rice; however, the chilling signaling in r...
