GENOME WIDE ASSOCIATION ANALYSIS REVEALS MARKERS TAGGING ANHTRACNOSE AND ANGULAR LEAF SPOT RESISTANCE GENES IN COMMONBEANS FROM BRAZIL

摘要

Common bean production can be severely affected by anthracnose (ANT) and angular leaf spot (ALS) diseases. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) aim to identify genomic regions associated with the traits of interest. The objective of this study was to use GWAS for to identify resistance in common bean to races 9, 65, 73, 2047, and 3481 of Colletotrichum lindemuthianum, the ANT pathogen, and races 31-23 and 63-39 of Pseudocercospora griseola, the ALS pathogen.
