Genome-wide association analysis of Russian wheat aphid (Diuraphis noxia) resistance in Dn4 derived wheat lines evaluated in South Africa

ABSTRACT: Presently RWA resistant genes are believed to be single dominant genes. However, some studies have shown that this may not necessarily be the case. It is possible that RWA resistance in wheat may be a function of multiple alleles on a single site, quantitative trait loci (QTL), pathway signalling differences or varying methylation patterns. This study aims to investigate the underlying genetic controls of RWA resistance. Thereby allowing breeders to make informed choices during selection phases.
