Genome-wide association mapping of black point reaction in common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)

Abstract Background Black point is a serious threat to wheat production and can be managed by host resistance. Marker-assisted selection (MAS) has the potential to accelerate genetic improvement of black point resistance in wheat breeding. We performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) using th...
