I want to find some SSR primers of sweet corn especially for disease resistance (rust, blight, downy mildew, etc), pest (army worm, insects), adaptation (drought, flood, etc), and agronomic traits (sweetness)
In the attached paper, marker assisted selection for resistance to Northern Corn Leaf Blight (NCLB), caused by Exserohilum turcicum, has been carried out in order to identify resistant (R) and susceptible (S) sweet com lines by inoculation with E. turcicum and developing FI populations between R and S lines, as well as to identify polymorphic SSR primers between the R and S lines and to find associated markers to resistant genes and then apply marker assisted selection for NCLB resistance in sweet com lines.
