چکیده
white mold with upright architecture has progressed relatively slowly. Cumbersome screening methods, low Physiological resistance is an important component of integrated heritability, and few available resistance sources have strategies used to control white mold [caused by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Lib.) de Bary], a major disease of common bean (Phaseolus contributed to the lack of progress for enhancing physiovulgaris L.) in North America. Information pertaining to inheritance logical resistance. This situation may soon be alleviated, of physiological resistance, as detected by the greenhouse straw test, however, as the recently developed Bean White Mold and its relationship with field resistance is lacking. The objectives of Nursery (Steadman, 1995, 1997; Steadman et al., 1999) this study were to compare physiological resistance as detected by and novel, less cumbersome screening methods (Pettwo separate straw tests with field resistance, evaluate heritability of zoldt and Dickson, 1996; Steadman, 1997; Kolkman and physiological resistance, and to characterize the disease reaction of Kelly, 2000) are helping to identify, characterize, and G 122 by quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis. This was done in a select for physiological resistance to white mold in comrecombinant inbred population (A 55/G 122) consisting of 67 F8mon bean (Miklas et al., 1998, 1999). The straw test derived lines. The greenhouse tests with five and six replications, (Petzoldt and Dickson, 1996) is a simple procedure for respectively, and the field test with three replications were conducted in randomized complete block designs.

Meta-QTL for resistance to white mold in common bean
White mold, caused by the fungus Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Lib.) de Bary, is a major disease that limits common bean production and quality worldwide. The host-pathogen interaction is complex, with partial resistance in the host inherited as a quantitative trait with low to moderate heritability. Our objective was to identify meta-QTL conditioning partial resistance to white mold from individua...
