QTL mapping reveals complex genetic architecture of quantitative virulence in the wheat pathogen Zymoseptoria tritici.

Ethan L. Stewart, Daniel Croll, Mark H. Lendenmann, Andrea Sanchez-Vallet, Fanny E. Hartmann, Javier Palma-Guerrero, Xin Ma, Bruce McDonald

This study uses QTL mapping to uncover the genetic basis of virulence in Zymoseptoria tritici, identifying both population-specific and shared genetic factors affecting pathogen reproduction and host damage.
