Resistance to anthracnose leaf blight in sorghum
… of sorghum is limited by economically important diseases which lower the production of sorghum. Sorghum anthracnose may cause from 50 to 86% yield losses and is caused by a hemi-biotrophic fungal pathogen Colletotrichum sublineola. The pathogen is host specific and survives on seeds, mycelium, …

Whole genome analysis of the koa wilt pathogen (Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. koae) and development of molecular tools for early detection and monitoring
… is necessary for informing land managers and disease resistance breeding programs. Current methods to distinguish pathogenic isolates are conducted through costly, extensive greenhouse virulence assays. Genomic comparisons of pathogens and non-pathogens such as amplified fragment length …

Dissecting the genetic basis of wheat yellow rust resistance in the NIAB Elite MAGIC population
… outbreaks and have jeopardised wheat yellow rust resistance levels in the main wheat-producing regions globally. Widespread epidemics have been further facilitated by the deployment of genetically uniform material underpinned by major resistance over large areas. With such a rapidly changing Pst …

Genetic Determinism of Xanthomonas arboricola pv. pruni (Xap) Resistance, Fruit Quality, and Phenological Traits in Peach and Incorporation of Marker-Assisted Selection (MAS) in the University of Arkansas Peach and Nectarine Breeding Program
… as an innovative approach to increase peach breeding efficiency. Although hundreds of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) have been identified, only a few have been converted into usable MAS tools. This highlights a disconnect between genomic discoveries and practical application in breeding …
