Identification of resistant genotypes considering polygenic systems in host-pathogen interaction

Plant resistance to pathogens is the most efficient form of disease control. However, identification of resistant genotypes is often difficult, especially when the genetic basis for the host-pathogen relationship is unknown. This study was carried out to test a methodology capable of providing, in a...
