Abstract
The chromosomal location of Fusarium head blight (FHB) resistance genes in wheat and the discovery of molecular markers for detecting the presence of these genes is herein described. The markers are generated via PCR or similar amplification reaction using primers identified herein. As a result, seed material can be assayed, thereby eliminating the time and cost involved in assaying adult plants for FHB resistance. Furthermore, the markers allow for gene pyramiding of the multiple, independent resistance genes into complex genetic backgrounds. In addition, the markers can be assayed in parallel. Finally, the markers are cost effective, highly reliable and accurate, and require just a few hours for testing.
