A Genome-Wide Association Study Identifies Markers and Candidate Genes Affecting Tolerance to the Wheat Pathogen .

Plants defend themselves against pathogens using either resistance, measured as the host's ability to limit pathogen multiplication, or tolerance, measured as the host's ability to reduce the negative effects of infection. Tolerance is a promising trait for crop breeding, but its genetic basis has rarely been studied and remains poorly understood. Here, we reveal the genetic basis of leaf tolerance to the fungal pathogen that causes the globally important septoria tritici blotch disease on wheat.

The genome sequence of the Common Sycamore Aphid, (Schrank, 1801).

We present a genome assembly from an individual female (the Common Sycamore Aphid; Arthropoda; Insecta; Hemiptera; Aphididae). The genome sequence is 284.5 megabases in span.

The genome sequence of the giant willow aphid, (Gmelin, 1790).

We present a genome assembly from an individual female (the giant willow aphid; Arthropoda; Insecta; Hemiptera; Aphididae). The genome sequence is 456.8 megabases in span.
