Validation and Marker-Assisted Selection of Two Major Quantitative Trait Loci Conditioning Fusarium Head Blight Resistance in Wheat

Fusarium head blight (FHB) is one of the most destructive diseases of common wheat (Triticum eastivum L.) worldwide. Resistance to FHB is an ideal trait for which molecular marker assisted selection (MAS) would facilitate breeding and cultivar development efforts. Validation of quantitative trait lo...
