Genome-wide association analysis of Fusarium crown rot resistance in Chinese wheat landraces.

population consisting of 136 lines. The results showed the presence of this resistance allele could explain up to 39.66% of phenotypic variance compared to its counterparts. In addition, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction showed that two candidate genes of Qfcr.sicau.1B-4 were differently expressed after inoculation. Our study provided useful information for improving FCR resistance in wheat.
