Abstract
The present disclosure is in the field of plant breeding and disease resistance. The disclosure provides methods for breeding corn plants having northern leaf blight (NLB) resistance using marker-assisted selection. The disclosure further provides corn germplasm resistant to NLB. The disclosure also provides markers associated with NLB resistance loci for introgressing these loci into elite germplasm in a breeding program, thus producing novel NLB resistant germplasm.
