Identification of Soybean Germplasm and Associated Molecular Markers with Resistance to Fusarium graminearum
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Soybean ranks second by total production of all crops grown in the United States. From surveys of soybean production regions in the US and Canada, seedling diseases have been consistently identified as one of the top five biotic limitations on yield for over two decades. The role of Fusarium graminearum as an aggressive member of this complex was unknown until relatively recently and, consequently, publicly and commercially available varieties with resistance to this pathogen are unavailable. To address the need for resistant germplasm and to improve our understanding of the genetic basis underlying the resistance, we screened a set of 208 accessions of soybean from the United States Department of Agriculture Soybean Germplasm Collection (USDA-SGC) under controlled greenhouse conditions. A ratio of the root weight of inoculated plants compared to mock-inoculated controls was used to evaluate the degree of resistance. A linear mixed model identified eight resistant accessions (PI 548311, PI 438500, PI 561318 A, PI 547690, PI 391577, PI 157484, PI 632418, and PI 70466 -3) with significantly higher resistance than the population mean. Previous genotyping publicly available through the SoyBase database was used in a genome-wide association study (GWAS) to determine single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers associated with resistant and susceptible phenotypes. A total of five significant marker-trait associations (MTAs) were discovered on chromosomes Gm02, Gm03, Gm06, Gm07, and Gm13, each accounting for 4.8, 4.3, 3.8, 4.1, and 3.0% of the phenotypic variance, respectively. This study, thus, lays a foundation for the better dissection of germplasm resistant to F. graminearum.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
