Identification and Validation of a QTL for Bacterial Leaf Streak Resistance in Rice ( L.) against Thai Strains.

Rice is one of the most important food crops in the world and is of vital importance to many countries. Various diseases caused by fungi, bacteria and viruses constantly threaten rice plants and cause yield losses. Bacterial leaf streak disease (BLS) caused by pv.

Genome-Wide Association Analysis Identifies Resistance Loci for Bacterial Leaf Streak Resistance in Rice ( L.).

Bacterial leaf streak (BLS) caused by pv. () is one of the most devastating diseases in rice production areas, especially in humid tropical and subtropical zones throughout Asia and worldwide. A genome-wide association study (GWAS) analysis conducted on a collection of 236 diverse rice accessions, mainly varieties, identified 12 quantitative trait loci (QTLs) on chromosomes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 9 and 11, conferring resistance to five representative isolates of Thai .

Mining and validation of novel genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS)-based simple sequence repeats (SSRs) and their application for the estimation of the genetic diversity and population structure of coconuts ( L.) in Thailand.

Coconut ( L.) is an important economic crop in tropical countries. However, the lack of a complete reference genome and the limitations of usable DNA markers hinder genomic studies and the molecular breeding of coconut.

QTL-seq reveals genomic regions associated with spikelet fertility in response to a high temperature in rice (Oryza sativa L.).

The QTL-seq approach was used to identify QTLs for spikelet fertility under heat stress in rice. QTLs were detected on chromosomes 1, 2 and 3. Rice is a staple food of more than half of the global population.
