Identifications of QTLs and Candidate Genes Associated with Pseudomonas syringae Responses in Cultivated Soybean (Glycine max) and Wild Soybean (Glycine soja)

ABSTRACT: Soybeans (Glycine max) are a key food crop, serving as a valuable source of both oil and plant-derived protein. Pseudomonas syringae pv. glycinea (Psg) is among the most aggressive and prevalent pathogens affecting soybean production, causing a form of bacterial spot disease that impacts soybean leaves and thereby reduces crop yields. In this study, 310 natural soybean varieties were screened for Psg resistance and susceptibility. The identified susceptible and resistant varieties were then used for linkage mapping, BSA-seq, and whole genome sequencing (WGS) analyses aimed at identifying key QTLs associated with Psg responses. Candidate Psg-related genes were further confirmed through WGS and qPCR analyses. Candidate gene haplotype analyses were used to explore the associations between hap
