A germin-like protein gene family functions as a complex quantitative trait locus conferring broad-spectrum disease resistance in rice

Plant disease resistance governed by quantitative trait loci (QTL) is predicted to be effective against a broad spectrum of pathogens and long lasting. Use of these QTL to improve crop species, however, is hindered because the genes contributing to the trait are not known. Five disease resistance QT...
