Identification of Genes Associated with Resistance to Brown Rust in Sugarcane and Prevalence of One Major Gene

Development of resistant cultivars is the main control measure against sugarcane brown rust caused by Puccinia melanocephala. Durability is uncertain, since the pathogen possesses adaptive ability to overcome host plant resistance. A differential gene expression study utilizing suppressive subtracti...
