Wheat sharp eyespot caused by Rhizoctonia cerealis and wheat powdery mildew caused by Blumeria graminis are two of the serious diseases in China, which have resulted in great loss of wheat grain yield. To map and localize resistance QTLs associated with both diseases using quantitative trait loci (QTLs) analysis can contribute to providing theoretical guide to breeding for disease resistance and the basis on which molecular marker-assisted selection can be implemented.
To our knowledge,...
