The root-lesion nematode, Pratylenchus penetrans (Cobb 1917).
Filipjev and Shuurmans Stekhoven, 1941, is widely distributed throughout
Oregon and other temperate zones of the world. Economically
it is probably the most important plant parasitic nematode in Oregon
because of its abundance, wide host range of economic plants and
interactions with other...
Background: The identification of the loci and specific alleles underlying variation in quantitative traits is an important goal for evolutionary biologists and breeders. Despite major advancements in genomics technology, moving from QTL to causal alleles remains a major challenge in genetics research. Near-isogenic lines are the ideal raw material for...
