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 bacteria. The invention further includes germplasm and the use of germplasm containing at least one marker associated with resistance to Bacterial Stalk Rot (BSR) infection for introgression into elite germplasm in a breeding program, thus producing novel BSR resistant germplasm.
Abstract:
The present invention provides methods and compositions for identifying soybean plants that are tolerant or have improved tolerance, or those that are susceptible to, iron deficient growth conditions. The methods use molecular markers to identify, select, and/or introgress genetic loci modulating phenotypic expression of an iron deficiency tolerance trait in soybean plant breeding. Methods are provided for screening germplasm entries for the performance and expression of this trait.

Abstract:
The present disclosure is in the field of plant breeding and genetics, particularly as it pertains to the genus Glycine. More specifically, the invention relates to methods and compositions for producing a population of soybean plants with enhanced resistance to soybean cyst nematode. The methods use the detection of molecular genetic markers linked to soybean cyst nematode resistance loci to select for plants displaying an enhanced soybean cyst nematode resistance phenotype.
Abstract:
The present disclosure is in the field of plant breeding and disease resistance. The disclosure provides methods for breeding corn plants having downy mildew (DM) resistance using marker-assisted selection. The disclosure further provides corn germplasm resistant to DM. The disclosure also provides markers associated with DM resistance loci for introgressing these loci into elite germplasm in a breeding program, thus producing novel DM resistant germplasm.
