Fusarium head blight (FHB) is a devastating wheat disease with a significant economic impact. <i>Fhb1</i> is the most important large effect and stable QTL for FHB resistance. A pore-forming toxin-like (<i>PFT</i>) gene was recently identified as an underlying gene for <i>Fhb1</i> resistance. In this study, we developed and validated a <i>PFT</i>-based Kompetitive allele specific PCR (KASP) marker for <i>Fhb1</i>. The KASP marker, PFT_KASP, was used to screen 298 diverse wheat breeding lines and ...[more]
