Genome-wide association mapping of major QTLs for resistance to bacterial leaf-streak disease (Xanthomonas translucens pv. undulosa) in elite hard winter wheat germplasm

Bacterial leaf streak (BLS), caused by Xanthomonas translucens pv. undulosa ( Xtu ), is an increasing threat to wheat ( Triticum aestivum L .) production in the Northern Great Plains of the United States, where severe epidemics can cause up to 60% yield losses in susceptible geno...
