Identification of genomic regions associated with shoot fly resistance in maize and their syntenic relationships in the sorghum genome.
Shoot fly (Atherigona naqvii) is one of the major insects affecting spring maize in North India and can cause yield loss up to 60 per cent. The genetics of insect resistance is complex as influenced by genotypic background, insect population and climatic conditions. Therefore, quantitative trait loc...
