highly significantp value = 3.1 × 10 −28
An Amino Acid Permease gene, CsAAP2A (gene ID: Csa4M573860), was selected as a promising candidate gene based on the finding that this gene was down‐regulated by a factor of 100 in NIL DM4.1.3 compared to HS279, which was highly significant (Benjamini–Hochberg corrected p value = 3.1 × 10 −28 ). 2.2 Lack of CsAAP2A expression is due to the insertion of a CUMULE transposon To investigate the reason why CsAAP2A was very poorly expressed in NIL DM4.1.3, we resequenced the whole genomes of genotype NIL DM4.1 (an NIL with an introgression spanning subQTL DM4.1.1, DM4.1.2, and DM4.1.3) as well as susceptible parent HS279.
