Genome-wide association study identifies key SNP loci related to soybean mosaic virus resistance in soybean germplasm, suggesting potential targets for breeding.
Key Points
Seventy-two SNP loci were identified on chromosome 13 associated with soybean mosaic virus resistance.
The study evaluated the SMV resistance of 286 soybean accessions using a GFP-tagged recombinant virus.
GWAS analysis revealed key candidate genes linked to resistance through functional annotation and haplotype assessment.
The GFP-based evaluation system may enhance breeding strategies for improving soybean resilience to viral infections.
