Transcriptome analysis reveals the molecular mechanisms of the defense response to gray leaf spot disease in maize

Abstract Background Gray leaf spot (GLS), which is caused by the necrotrophic fungi Cercospora zeae-maydis and Cercospora zeina, is one of the most impactful diseases in maize worldwide. The aim of the present study is to identify the resistance genes and understand the molecular mechanisms for GLS...
