Soybean red crown rot (RCR), a soil-borne disease caused by the fungus Calonectria ilicicola, result in can to annual yield losses of up to 30%. In this study, we identified quantitative trait loci (QTLs) associated with RCR resistance in three wild soybean accessions, ‘Gs-7,’ ‘Gs-9,’ and ‘Gs-27.’ QTL analysis was performed using four populations of recombinant inbred lines (RILs) derived from crosses between these wild soybean accessions and two susceptible soybean cultivars ‘Enrei’ (populations En7, En9, and En27, respectively) and ‘Williams 82’ (W9).
