A correlation model between disease levels and aflatoxin B1 accumulation was established. The results showed that inoculating maize inbred lines with the optimal conidial concentration of 1.0×10^6 c/mL could accurately show the different resistance levels of maize to A.flavus infection,and the spiral quantitative inoculation technique could effectively avoid the defect of calculation error caused by commonly used methods. The positive correlation model of resistance level and aflatoxin B1 accumulation could effectively predict the capability of maize being resistant to A.flavus. 8 resistant and 9 medium resistant maize inbred lines of the RIL population were identified.The spiral quantitative identification method realized the high-throughput identification of maize inbred lines resistant to A.flavus infection in the field,and the results have shown high accuracy,stability and repeatability.展开更多
