A GWAS identified a major QTL for resistance to Fusarium wilt (Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. vasinfectum) race 4 in a MAGIC population of Upland cotton and a meta-analysis of QTLs for Fusarium wilt resistance
A GWAS identified a major QTL for resistance to Fusarium wilt (Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. vasinfectum) race 4 in a MAGIC population of Upland cotton and a meta-analysis of QTLs for Fusarium wilt resistance

Numerous studies have been conducted to investigate the genetic basis of Fusarium wilt (FW, caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. vasinfectum, FOV) resistance using bi-parental and association mapping populations in cotton. In this study, a multi-parent advanced generation inter-cross (MAGIC) population of 550 recombinant inbred lines (RILs), together with their 11 Upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) parents, was used to identify QTLs for FOV race 4 (FOV4) resistance.
