Research Progress on Marker-Assisted Selection Pyramiding Breeding of Disease Resistance Genes in Wheat
Introduction Wheat is a fundamental global food crop, yet its productivity is frequently threatened by various diseases such as powdery mildew, rust, and Fusarium head blight. As climate conditions shift and pathogens evolve, single-resistance-gene wheat varieties are losing effectiveness. Marker-assisted selection (MAS) pyramiding breeding has emerged as a vital technique to enhance disease resistance by…
