“…In China, genes conferring resistance to multiple SMV strains in ‘Kefeng No.1’ (KF) were clustered in one region on chromosome 2 (linkage group, LG‐D1b). (Fu, Zhan, Zhi, Gai, & Yu, ; Li et al., , ; Wang, Ma, Yang et al., ; Wang, Zhi, Guo et al., 2004); SMV resistance genes identified from ‘Qihuang No.1’ (QH) and ‘Qihuang 22’ were mapped on chromosome 13 (LG‐F) (Li et al., ; Ma, Li, Wang, Liu, & Zhi, ; Ma et al., ; Zheng et al., ); strain‐specific resistance genes in ‘RN‐9’ ( Rsc15 ) and Dabaima ( Rsc4 ) were identified on chromosome 6 (LG‐C2) and 14 (LG‐B2), respectively (Rui et al., ; Wang, Ma, Liu et al., ; Yang & Gai, ). In addition, several major quantitative trait loci (QTLs) conferring soybean resistance to SMV have been detected on chromosome 6, 10 and 13 etc.…”
