Discussion

Genome-wide association study identifies 21 SNPs linked to root rot resistance in soybean, highlighting potential for marker-assisted selection.

The analysis revealed 21 SNPs that are significantly associated with root rot resistance in soybean.
46.13% of evaluated accessions were susceptible to rhizoctonia solani, demonstrating a substantial impact on yield.
The study utilized both general linear model and mixed linear model approaches for the GWAS of the germplasm accessions.
These findings support the development of molecular breeding strategies for durable soybean resistance against root rot.

Wang et al. (2025) studied this question.
