Development of IRAP- and REMAP-derived SCAR markers for marker-assisted selection of the stripe rust resistance gene Yr15 derived from wild emmer wheat

摘要

Yr15 provides broad resistance to stripe rust, an important wheat disease. REMAP- and IRAP-derived co-dominant SCAR markers were developed and localize Yr15 to a 1.2 cM interval. They are reliable across many cultivars.
