Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to the field of plant breeding. More specifically, the present invention includes a method of using haploid plants for genetic mapping of traits such as disease resistance. Further, the invention includes a method for breeding corn plants containing quantitative trait loci (QTL) that are associated with resistance to Gray Leaf Spot (GLS), a fungal disease associated with Cercospora spp. The invention further includes a method for breeding corn plants containing QTL that are associated with Goss' Wilt, a bacterial disease associated with Clavibacter michiganense spp.
