Claim:
1. A method of creating a population of soybean plants comprising Asian Soybean Rust (ASR) resistance locus 15, the method comprising the steps of: genotyping a first population of soybean plants at a marker locus within 10 centimorgans or less from a SNP marker selected from the group consisting of NS0093385, NS0118716, and NS0127833, said population containing said ASR resistance locus 15; selecting from said first population one or more identified soybean plants containing said ASR resistance locus 15; and producing from said selected soybean plants a second population, thereby creating a population of soybean plants comprising said ASR resistance locus 15; wherein ASR resistance locus 15 is identified by one or more of the markers selected from the group consisting of NS0093385, NS0118716, and NS0127833, wherein a resistance allele of each of said markers NS0093385, NS0118716, and NS0127833, comprises SEQ ID NOs: 76, 77, and 78, respectively.
