Genome-Wide Association Studies and QTL Mapping Reveal a New Locus Associated with Resistance to Bacterial Pustule Caused by pv. in Soybean.

Bacterial pustule (BP), caused by pv. , is an important disease that, under favorable conditions, can drastically affect soybean production. We performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) with a panel containing Brazilian and American cultivars, which were screened qualitatively and quantitatively against two Brazilian isolates (IBS 333 and IBS 327).
