Fig. 1: GWAS detect two strong rice blast resistance associations on chromosomes 11 and 12 near the Pia and Ptr resistance loci, respectively.

a Manhattan plots showing associations between individual bi-allelic SNPs and resistance to M. oryzae isolates Mo15-24 (group two) and C923-49 across the twelve rice chromosomes. b Manhattan plots of chromosomes 12 (Mo15-24) and 11 (C923-49) from (a). c Close-up views of genomic regions of co-associated SNPs (haploblock) surrounding the peak SNP. The physical positions of the peak SNPs in the Nipponbare reference assembly for Mo15-24 (10,806,802), Mo15-23 (10,797,768), and C923-49 (6,540,075) are marked by asterisks (Mo15-23 peak SNP location is shown in gray). The linkage blocks surrounding the peak SNPs for Mo15-24 (Chr12: 10,769,576-10,845,095) and C923-49 (Chr11: 6,530,358-6,554,718) are marked by a gray dashed line. Gray scale bars represent 10 kb. Gene identifiers are represented as shortened versions of the Rice Genome Annotation (Osa1) Release 7 by removing LOC_Os from the start of each gene identifier. Exons and introns of known resistance genes are shown as green and white blocks, respectively.
