Corn plants exhibiting broad-spectrum resistance toare provided, together with methods of producing, identifying, or selecting plants or germplasm with aresistance phenotype. Such plants include sweet corn plants as well as agronomically elite dent corn plants comprising introgressed genomic regions conferring disease resistance. Compositions, including novel polymorphic markers and methods for producing, breeding, identifying, and selecting plants or germplasm with a disease resistance phenotype are further provided.

Corn plants with improved disease resistance

The present disclosure provides maize plants exhibiting broad spectrum resistance to Northern Leaf Blight (NLB). Maize plants with multiple NLB resistance loci located in cis linkage on chromosome 8 are provided. Compositions, including novel polymorphic markers and methods for producing, breeding, identifying, and selecting plants or germplasm with a disease resistance phenotype are further provided.

Maize plants with improved disease resistance

Pepper plants exhibiting resistance to root knot nematode species are provided, together with methods of producing, identifying, or selecting plants or germplasm with a root knot nematode resistance phenotype. Such plants include pepper plants comprising introgressed genomic regions conferring pest resistance. Compositions, including novel polymorphic markers for detecting plants comprising introgressed pest resistance alleles, are further provided.

Pepper plants with improved pest resistance

The present disclosure providesBCMS plants exhibiting uniform female fertility. Such plants comprise novel introgressed genomic regions associated with uniform female fertility fromon chromosome 6. In certain aspects, compositions and methods for producing, breeding, identifying, and selecting plants or germplasm with a uniform female fertility phenotype are provided.

male sterility with female fertile flowers in

The present disclosure providesBCMS plants comprising a male fertility restoration locus. Such plants comprise novel introgressed genomic regions associated with male fertility fromon chromosome 6. In certain aspects, compositions and methods for producing, breeding, identifying, and selecting plants or germplasm with a male fertility phenotype are provided.

Restorer factor for thecytoplasmic male sterility system in pepper

The present disclosure provides pepper plants exhibiting resistance to. Such plants may comprise novel introgressed chromosomal regions associated with disease resistance. In certain aspects, compositions, including novel polymorphic markers and methods for producing, breeding, identifying, and selecting plants or germplasm with a disease resistance phenotype are provided.
