Identification and genomic location of resistance to bacterial leaf streak of barley
Abstract The bacterial leaf streak (BLS) disease of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), caused by Xanthomonas translucens pv. translucens (Xtt), has become increasingly important worldwide in recent years. Inefficacy of chemical control methods leaves deployment of host resistance to be the only option to manage this disease.
