Resistances to Fusarium ear rot [caused by Fusarium verticillioides (Sacc.) Nirenberg (teleomorph Gibberella moniliformis Wineland)] and contamination by the associated mycotoxin fumonisin in maize (Zea mays L.) are quantitatively inherited. We backcrossed the more resistant but unadapted inbred GE440 for four generations to the susceptible but agronomically elite commercial inbred FR1064. A selected set of 19 BC4F1:3 lines had greater resistance to ear rot and fumonisin content than their recurrent parent FR1064. Topcrosses of the selected lines had greater resistance to Fusarium ear rot and similar grain yield compared to the topcross of the recurrent parent FR1064. We also genotyped selected lines at DNA markers linked to ear rot and fumonisin resistance quantitative trait loci (QTL) identified in the BC1 generation of this cross to determine which QTL demonstrated allele frequency shifts due to selection. Markers linked to QTL on chromosomes 1 and 4 inherited the GE440 allele significantly more often than expected by random chance.}, number={6}, journal={CROP SCIENCE}, author={Eller, Magen S. and Payne, Gary A. and Holland, James B.}, year={2010}, pages={2249–2260} }

To reduce levels of fumonisin in grain, efforts are under way to identify sources of maize with increased resistance to fungal infection and fumonisin contamination. Field and laboratory techniques have been developed to measure both Fusarium ear rot and fumonisin contamination. Application of these techniques has led to the identification of resistant maize lines and facilitated genetic analysis of resistance to ear rot and fumonisin accumulation. Maize genetics and breeding studies are guiding strategies to improve resistance to fumonisin accumulation.}, number={3-4}, journal={TOXIN REVIEWS}, author={Eller, Magen S. and Holland, James B. and Payne, Gary A.}, year={2008}, pages={371–389} }
