Quantitative Disease Resistance: Dissection and Adoption in Maize

Abstract: Maize is the world's most produced crop, providing food, feed, and biofuel. Maize production is constantly threatened by the presence of devastating pathogens worldwide. Characterization of the genetic components underlying disease resistance is a major research area in maize which is highly relevant for resistance breeding programs. Quantitative disease resistance (QDR) is the type of resistance most widely used by maize breeders. The past decade has witnessed significant progress in fine-mapping and cloning … Show more

“…Quantitative resistance usually causes reduction in disease severity but not the absence of disease in plants and can be a source of durable resistance or tolerance (French et al, 2016). However, a better understanding of the genetic mechanisms underlying resistance is still necessary (Ali et al, 2013;Yang et al, 2017). In maize, obtaining quantitative resistance to major diseases is a central focus in breeding programs.…”

“…The loci involved in quantitative resistance can be sorted by the magnitude of their effects and classified as major-or minor-effect loci in determining resistance to diseases of interest. In addition, the most economically important maize diseases are caused by necrotrophic pathogens, and resistance to such diseases is almost exclusively quantitative rather than qualitative (Balint-Kurti and Johal, 2009;Yang et al, 2017). However, a better understanding of the genetic mechanisms underlying resistance is still necessary (Ali et al, 2013;Yang et al, 2017).…”
