Walnut anthracnose induced by Colletotrichum gloeosporioides is a devastating disease that seriously threatens walnut cultivation. Screening novel resistance genes and exploring the associated molecular mechanisms are essential for cultivating disease-resistant walnut varieties. Herein, we conducted a genome-wide association study of disease resistance traits based on the relative resistance index and single nucleotide polymorphisms obtained from 182 resequenced walnut accessions, identifying 10 loci associated with resistance against C. gloeosporioides.
