Association mapping for common bacterial blight in carioca beans

Abstract

Common bacterial blight (CBB) is an important disease in Phaseolus vulgaris L. A carioca diversity panel (CDP) composed of 149 cultivars of common bean was genotyped with 1,616 SNPs and evaluated for Xanthomonas phaseoli pv. phaseoli (Xap) resistance aiming to identify QTLs. Phenotypic evaluation was done in controlled conditions. The plants displayed in a randomized block design, with 3 replications were evaluated ten days after inoculation. GWAS analysis using the BLINK model identified one SNP on chromosome Pv07, with a different genomic location in relation to previous studies. Considering a confidence interval of 100 kb, gene annotation identified 13 candidate genes related to defense-associated genes, and their key functional motives were discussed. The marker identified may constitute an important resource for future marker assisted CBB resistance breeding.
