Abstract
Compositions and methods useful in identifying and selecting maize plants with increased resistance to gray leaf spot are provided herein. The methods use molecular genetic markers within a QTL region located on chromosome 4 to identify and select plants with increased resistance to gray leaf spot, and plants comprising the QTL allele associated with increased resistance to gray leaf spot can be crossed to other maize plants to incorporate the increased resistance into other maize lines or varieties.
