Quantitative trait loci and gene-specific markers associated with resistance to soybean cyst nematode HG type 2.5.7.

ABSTRACT: Soybean cyst nematode (SCN) is one of the most damaging soybean (Glycine max) pests worldwide. More than 95% of SCN-resistant commercial cultivars in North America are derived from a single source of resistance named PI 88788, and the widespread use of this source in the past three decades has led to the selection of virulent biotypes of SCN, such as HG (Heterodera glycines) type 2.5.7 that can overcome the PI 88788-type resistance. The objectives of this study were to identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) and candidate genes underlying the resistance to HG type 2.5.7 isolate and to measure the impact of the resistance factors on seed yield. To achieve the goals, a recombinant inbreed line (RIL) population was established from a cross between an SCN-susceptible high-yielding
