Characterization of temperature and light effects on the defense response phenotypes associated with the maize Rp1-D21autoactive resistance gene

Table 2 The diversity of the Rp1-D21 mediated HR in maize [Adapted from Table 1 in reference 3]

F₁ families were derived from crosses between a number of inbreds and the Rp1-D21-H95 line, which was heterozygous for the Rp1-D21 gene. The resulting F₁ families therefore segregated 1:1 for the necrotic spotting phenotype associated with Rp1-D21. Measured in Clayton NC in 2006 and in West Lafayette IN in 2009, lesion score (LES) and mutant to wild type height ratio (HTR) were measured as described in the materials and methods.
