A genome-wide association study reveals molecular mechanism underlying powdery mildew resistance in cucumber
Here we identify a candidate powdery mildew-resistant gene in cucumber using GWAS. The identified gene may be a promising target for molecular breeding and genetic engineering in cucumber to enhance powdery mildew resistance.
