Abstract Gray leaf spot (GLS), caused by the fungal pathogen Cercospora zeae-maydis, is one of the most serious foliar diseases of maize worldwide. In the present study, a population of recombinant inbred lines

(RILs) derived from a gray leaf spot–resistant inbred line Qi319 and a susceptible line Ye478 was used to map quantitative trait loci (QTL) for GLS resistance. For initial QTL analysis, genetic maps containing 199

simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers were constructed. One major QTL, qGLS1.02, was consistently detected between SSR markers umc2614 and bnlg1803, and explained 6.86–36.24% of the phenotypic variation in GLS resistance. The chromosome segment substitution lines harboring the qGLS1.02 from Qi319 were more resistant to GLS (P < 0.01). Using a recombinantderived progeny test strategy, the interval containing qGLS1.02 was narrowed to ~ 314 kb according to the B73 (RefGen_v4 genome) including 12 candidate genes; only six of them have been annotated functionally.

Introduction Gray leaf spot (GLS) is one of the world’s most serious foliar diseases caused by the causal fungal pathogens Cercospora zeae-maydis and Cercospora zeina in China. This destructive disease has resulted in yield losses of over 50% in the USA and from 20 to 60% in South Africa in the case of outbreak (Nsibo et al. 2019; Ward et al. 1997, 1999). Cercospora zeae-maydis is the main fungal pathogen in Liaoning Province in
