The genetic architecture of disease resistance in maize: a synthesis of published studies
Wisser RJ, Balint-Kurti PJ and Nelson RJ (2006). The genetic architecture of disease resistance in maize: a synthesis of published studies. Phytopathology 96(2):120–129. (DOI: 10.1094/PHYTO-96-0120).
Fifty publications on the mapping of maize disease resistance loci were synthesized. These papers reported the locations of 437 quantitative trait loci (QTL) for disease (dQTL), 17 resistance genes (R-genes), and 25 R-gene analogs. A set of rules was devised to enable the placement of these loci on a single consensus map, permitting analysis of the distribution of resistance loci identified across a variety of maize germplasm for a number of different diseases. The confidence intervals of the dQTL were distributed over all 10 chromosomes and covered 89% of the genetic map to which the data were anchored. Visual inspection indicated the presence of clusters of dQTL for multiple diseases. Clustering of dQTL was supported by statistical tests that took into account genome-wide variations in gene density. Several novel clusters of resistance loci were identified. Evidence was also found for the association of dQTL with maturity-related QTL. It was evident from the distinct dQTL distributions for the different diseases that certain breeding schemes may be more suitable for certain diseases. This review provides an up-to-date synthesis of reports on the locations of resistance loci in maize.

Genetic diversity in salt tolerant rice (O. sativa)
Islam MR, Faruquei MAB and Salam MA (2006). Genetic diversity in salt tolerant rice (O. sativa). Bangladesh Journal of Plant Breeding Genetics 19(1):35–40. (Articles before 2007 were not archived for this journal; photocopied version of article in PDF).
Genetic diversity of 36 genotypes of salt tolerant coastal rice collected from IRRI (Philippines), BRRI (bangladesh), China and Sri Lanka were studied through Mahalanobis D2 statistics to identify the most genetically distant parental genotypes for improving salt tolerant rice varieties.The genotypes were grouped into five clusters. The cluster II and cluster V contained the highest and the lowest number of genotypes, respectively. The highest intra-cluster distance was noticed for the cluster I and the lowest for the cluster V.
