Research Project:
UTLIZATION OF INTERSPECIFIC INBRED BACKCROSS LINES TO IMPROVE RESISTANCE TO WHITE MOLD IN COMMON BEAN GERMPLASM
Location: Sunflower Research
Project Number: 5442-21220-023-56
Project Type:
Specific Cooperative Agreement
Start Date: Jun 01, 2008
End Date: May 31, 2009
Objective:
Utilize backcrossing techniques and known molecular markers linked to resistant QTL to introgress resistant genes into commercially valuable Middle American germplasm.
Approach:
We will utilize backcrossing techniques to introgress QTL that contribute to resistance in two lines from the interspecific IBL population into commercially valuable Middle American germplasm (USPT-WM1) using tandem phenotypic selection using the Petzolt and Dickson Straw Test and genotypic selection using molecular markers linked to resistant QTL.
