Abstract:
The present invention is in the field of plant breeding and disease resistance. More specifically, the invention includes a method for breeding corn plants containing one or more markers that are associated with resistance to fungi. The invention further includes germplasm and the use of germplasm containing at least one marker associated with resistance to Fusarium stalk rot (FSR) infection for introgression into elite germplasm in a breeding program, thus producing novel FSR resistant germplasm.
Abstract:
The present invention is in the field of plant breeding and disease resistance. More specifically, the invention includes a method for breeding soybean plants containing quantitative trait loci that are associated with resistance to Asian Soybean Rust (ASR), a fungal disease associated with Phakopsora spp. The invention further includes germplasm and the use of germplasm containing quantitative trait loci (QTL) conferring disease resistance for introgression into elite germplasm in a breeding program for resistance to ASR.

Abstract:
The present invention provides methods and compositions for producing elite lines of corn exhibiting anthracnose stalk rot (ASR) resistance. Also provided in the present invention are corn plants exhibiting ASR resistance resulting from such methods, and methods for breeding corn such that the ASR resistance traits may be transferred to a desired genetic background.
