Replication Data for: Elucidating Genetic Control of Maydis Leaf Blight Resistance in Tropical Maize Through Genome Wide Association Studies and Genomic Predictions

Maydis Leaf Blight (MLB) is a serious foliar disease for maize in warm and humid regions. The data in this dataset were used to investigate the genetic architecture underlying resistance to MLB using high resolution Genome Wide Association Studies and Genomic Prediction. A diverse panel of 336 maize inbreds adapted for the Asian tropics, were evaluated for MLB disease score under four environments using artificial inoculation. In addition, a set of high density SNPs (128,490) from genotyping by sequencing were used for the study. The results of this study are presented in the accompanying publication.
