The invention relates to methods and compositions for identifying and selecting maize plants with enhanced resistance toear mold. Maize plants generated by the methods of the invention are also a feature of the invention.

Genetic loci associated with fusarium ear mold resistance in maize

The invention relates to methods and compositions for identifying maize plants that have newly conferred resistance or enhanced resistance to, or are susceptible to, a, particularly Mal de R&#xed;o Cuarto Virus (MRCV) and/or Maize Rough Dwarf Virus (MRDV). The methods use molecular genetic markers to identify, select and/or construct resistant plants or identify and counter-select susceptible plants. Maize plants that display newly conferred resistance or enhanced resistance to athat are generated by the methods of the invention are also a feature of the invention.

Major QTLS conferring resistance of corn to fijivirus

The invention relates to methods and compositions for identifying and/or selecting maize plants that have newly conferred resistance or enhanced resistance to, or are susceptible to, a Fijivirus, particularly Mal de Rio Cuarto Virus (MRCV) and/or Maize Rough Dwarf Virus (MRDV). The methods use molecular genetic markers to identify, select, and/or construct resistant plants or to identify and counter-select susceptible plants. Maize plants that display newly conferred resistance or enhanced resistance to a Fijivirus (or an infection or disease caused by the virus) that are generated by the methods of the invention are also a feature of the invention.

Genetic loci associated with resistance of corn to fijivirus

Genetic loci on maize chromosomes 3 and 4 that are associated with fusarium ear mold resistance

Genetic LOCI on maize chromosomes 3 and 4 that are associated with fusarium ear mold resistance

The invention relates to methods and compositions for identifying maize plants that have newly conferred resistance or enhanced resistance to, or are susceptible to, a Fijivirus, particularly Mal de R&#xed;o Cuarto Virus (MRCV) and/or Maize Rough Dwarf Virus (MRDV). The methods use molecular genetic markers to identify, select and/or construct resistant plants or identify and counter-select susceptible plants. Maize plants that display newly conferred resistance or enhanced resistance to a Fijivirus that are generated by the methods of the invention are also a feature of the invention.
