The dominant gene for physiological resistance in the wheat cultivar Uruguay to certain Australian strains of leaf rust was located on chromosome 5D by the F2 method of monosomic analysis. The gene responsible for resistance in the cultivar Transfer was confirmed to be on chromosome 6B. Possible mechanisms producing aberrant F2 ratios involving Transfer in crosses with certain susceptible cultivars are discussed.

SummarySeedling resistance to leaf rust available in the synthetic hexaploid wheat line Syn137 was characterized by means of cytogenetic and linkage mapping. Monosomic analysis located a single dominant gene for leaf rust resistance on chromosome 5D. Molecular mapping not only confirmed this location but also positioned the gene to the distal part of the long arm of chromosome 5D. A test of allelism showed that the gene, tentatively named LrSyn137, is independent but closely linked to Lr1. It appears that Syn137 is occasionally heterogeneous for Lr1 since the analysis of the Lr1-specific marker RGA567-5 in the mapping population indicated the presence of Lr1. Syn137 represents another source of genetic variation that can be useful for the diversification of leaf rust resistance in wheat cultivars.

Recessive Genes

Adult plant resistance to leaf rust in the Brazilian wheat cultivar Toropi (Triticum aestivum) was studied in crosses with the susceptible cultivar IAC 13. Cvs. Toropi and IAC 13 are susceptible at the seedling stage to race LCG-RS of Puccinia triticina Erikss., and to all other known Brazilian leaf-rust races. Thus, the resistance observed in Toropi in the field was due to adult plant-resistance genes. In the greenhouse at the adult plant stage, resistance segregated in a 7:9 ratio for two complementary recessive genes. Additionally, two recessive genes for leaf-tip necrosis were identified in the greenhouse environment. Necrosis was expressed when the two homozygous recessive genes occurred together in the F2, independently of the response to leaf rust. The resistance and leaf-necrosis genes differ from those previously reported in wheat. Segregation for leaf-rust resistance in the field at Passo Fundo, Brazil, fit a 1:3 ratio for a single recessive gene. With a different pathogen race, and in crosses of cvs. Toropi and ThatcherLr34, two recessive genes and a dominant gene for resistance were detected in the field in Mexico. The dominant gene was likely Lr34 from cv. ThatcherLr34 and the two recessive genes were likely those detected in the greenhouse adult plants tests at Passo Fundo.

Chromosome 3B

Leaf rust (Puccinia triticina) is a major biotic stress affecting wheat yields worldwide. Host-plant resistance is the best method for controlling leaf rust. Aegilops speltoides is a good source of resistance against wheat rusts. To date, five Lr genes, Lr28, Lr35, Lr36, Lr47, and Lr51, have been transferred from Ae. speltoides to bread wheat. In Selection2427, a bread wheat introgresed line with Ae. speltoides as the donor parent, a dominant gene for leaf rust resistance was mapped to the long arm of chromosome 3B (LrS2427). None of the Lr genes introgressed from Ae. speltoides have been mapped to chromosome 3B. Since none of the designated seedling leaf rust resistance genes have been located on chromosome 3B, LrS2427 seems to be a novel gene. Selection2427 showed a unique property typical of gametocidal genes, that when crossed to other bread wheat cultivars, the F1 showed partial pollen sterility and poor seed setting, whilst Selection2427 showed reasonable male and female fertility. Accidental co-transfer of gametocidal genes with LrS2427 may have occurred in Selection2427. Though LrS2427 did not show any segregation distortion and assorted independently of putative gametocidal gene(s), its utilization will be difficult due to the selfish behavior of gametocidal genes.

A partially dominant gene for adult-plant leaf rust resistance together with a linked, partially dominant gene for stem rust resistance were transferred to the hexaploid wheat cultivar 'Marquis' from an amphiploid of Aegilops speltoides × Triticum monococcum by direct crossing and backcrossing. Pathological evidence indicated that the alien resistance genes were derived from Ae. speltoides. Differential transmission of the resistance genes through the male gametes occurred in hexaploid hybrids involving the resistant 'Marquis' stock and resulted in distorted segregation ratios. In heterozygotes, pairing between the chromosome arm with the alien segment and the corresponding arm of the normal wheat chromosome was greatly reduced. The apparent close linkage between the two resistance genes, 3 ± 1.07 crossover units, was misleading because of this decrease in pairing in the presence of the 5B diploidizing mechanism. The newly identified gene for adult-plant leaf rust resistance, located on chromosome 2B, is different from adult-plant resistance genes Lr12, Lr13, and Lr22 and from that in the hexaploid accession PI250413; it has been designated Lr35. It is not known whether the newly transferred gene for stem rust resistance differs from Sr32, also derived from Ae. speltoides and located on chromosomes 2B.Key words: hexaploid, Triticum, Aegilops, aneuploid, Puccinia graminis, Puccinia recondita.

Leaf Rust Resistance Genes

The LrT gene for resistance to leaf rust present in the common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) backcross line RL 6049, and originally derived from the cultivar Terenzio, was shown to be on chromosome 4B. Farther analysis indicated that it is on the long arm of this chromosome, 2.9 ± 1.3 crossover units from the centromere. It is independent of or loosely linked with Sr7a, a gene for stem rust resistance known to be on the long arm of chromosome 4B. It is inherited independently of leaf rust resistance genes Lr1, Lr2a, Lr3, Lr10, Lr14b, Lr16, Lr17 and Lr18. LrT has been redesignated Lr30.

Triticum timopheevii (Zhuk.) Zhuk. is noted for its resistance to diseases including leaf and stem rust of wheat. Only one gene (Lr18) for leaf rust resistance has been transferred from T. timopheevii to bread wheat. The objectives of this work were to study the inheritance of leaf rust resistance in five accessions of T. timopheevii and to transfer genes for resistance into durum and bread wheats. A diallel set of crosses was made among five T. timopheevii accessions that gave a fleck infection type with an isolate of leaf rust race CBB. None of the F2 populations of the 10 crosses segregated for resistance, indicating that the five accessions all had at least one gene for resistance in common. Several accessions were crossed and backcrossed twice to durum and to bread wheat. At least three genes for leaf rust resistance were transferred to durum wheat and one to bread wheat. The gene transferred to bread wheat and one of those transferred to durum wheat conditioned good resistance to a set of 10 diverse races of leaf rust. Resistance conditioned by all three genes was dominant in durum wheat but the one gene was recessive in bread wheat. Monosomic analysis of the bread wheat line showed that the gene is on chromosome 1A. It should be useful in breeding for leaf rust resistance in both durum and bread wheat.

Leaf Rust Resistance Gene

The wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) line 5R618, bred at the China Agricultural University, is resistant in the seedling stage to the majority of the current Chinese pathotypes of wheat leaf rust (Puccinia triticina). To identify and map the leaf rust resistance gene in the 5R618 line, F<sub>2</sub> plants and F<sub>2:3</sub> families from a cross between 5R618 and Zhengzhou5389 (susceptible) were inoculated in the greenhouse with the Chinese P. triticina pathotype THJP. Results from the F<sub>2</sub> and F<sub>2:3</sub> populations indicate that a single dominant gene, temporarily designated&nbsp;Lr5R, conferred resistance. Using the molecular marker method, Lr5R was located on the 3DL chromosome. It was closely linked to the markers Xbarc71 and OPJ-09 with genetic distances of 0.9 cM and 1.0 cM, respectively. At present only one designated gene (Lr24) is located on the 3DL chromosome. The genetic distance between Lr5R&nbsp;and Lr24 confirms that Lr5R is a new leaf rust resistance gene.
