CIMMYT Ethiopia
Gray leaf spot (GLS) is a major maize foliar disease in sub-Saharan Africa that can substantially reduce yields for farmers. This dataset contains supporting phenotypic and genotypic data used in the analysis of the genetic architecture of GLS resistance in maize. The data in this paper relate to several different sets of germplasm: (1) The IMAS (Improved Maize for Africa Soils) panel with 430 lines assembled from diverse breeding programs from Africa, Asia and Latin America. (2) A DH population developed from crossing CML550 with CML494; (3) A DH population developed from crossing CML550 with CML504; (4) A DH population developed from crossing CML550 with CML511; and (5) several F3 populations The IMAS panel is a good source for genetic studies on resistance for several maize diseases and also for abiotic stress like low N conditions. The DH populations are a good source for low N discovery studies as well as for MLN and other disease resistance studies.
