Identification of Pathogenicity Loci in Magnaporthe oryzae Using GWAS with Neck Blast Phenotypic Data.

ABSTRACT: Magnaporthae oryzae (M. oryzae) is the most destructive disease of rice worldwide. In this study, one hundred and two isolates of M. oryzae were collected from rice (Oryzae sativa L.) from 2001 to 2017, and six rice varieties with resistance genes Pizt, Pish, Pik, Pib, and Pi2 were used in a genome-wide association study to identify pathogenicity loci in M. oryzae. Genome-wide association analysis was performed using 5338 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs) and phenotypic data of neck blast screening by TASSEL software together with haplotype block and SNP effect analysis. Twenty-seven significant SNPs were identified on chromosomes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7. Many predicted genes (820 genes) were found in the targ
