Genetics of Nitrogen-Induced Susceptibility in Rice: GWAS on 268 Accessions

A genome-wide association study (GWAS) dataset investigating the genetic basis of nitrogen-induced susceptibility to rice blast. The data was generated by Yanfang Liu and last updated on 2026-05-07, analyzing 268 rice accessions under controlled nitrogen regimes. It defines a NIS Index and identifies significant loci, including a novel locus on chromosome 8.

Use Cases

• Identify genetic markers for nitrogen-induced susceptibility based on GWAS results
• Study the correlation between nitrogen assimilation pathways and disease susceptibility based on gene expression analysis
• Analyze phenotypic polymorphism in nitrogen responsiveness across a diverse rice panel based on the NIS Index

Strengths

• Dataset size is 162.1 KB, indicating a focused and manageable scope for analysis
• Analysis is based on a diverse panel of 268 rice accessions from the rice diversity panel 2
• Includes physiological and gene expression data linked to the GWAS findings

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download
