Seedling Resistance

Powdery mildew, caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici, is a serious disease of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) throughout the world. Host resistance is the most effective and preferred means for managing this disease. Line 10V-2, a wheat breeding line with superior agronomic performance, shows broad-spectrum seedling resistance to powdery mildew. Genetic analysis demonstrated that its resistance was controlled by a single dominant gene, tentatively designated Pm10V-2. This gene was localized near the documented Pm2 locus on chromosome 5DS using the simple sequence repeat (SSR) marker Cfd81. To saturate the marker map of Pm10V-2, more markers were developed using bulked segregant RNA-Seq. Two single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers (Swgi047 and Swgi064), three expressed sequence tag markers (Swgi007, Swgi029, and Swgi038), and one SSR marker (Swgi066) were polymorphic between the resistant and susceptible bulks and showed tightly linked to the Pm10V-2 gene. Pm10V-2 was flanked by the new developed markers Swgi064 and Swgi066 at genetic distances of 0.4 and 1.2 centimorgans (cM), respectively, and cosegregated with Swgi007 and Swgi038. The homologous sequence of Pm2a was cloned from 10V-2 based on a recent study. Although the sequence cloned from 10V-2 was completely identical to that of the reported Pm2a-related gene, they did not cosegregate but were separated at a genetic distance of 1.6 cM, indicating that Pm10V-2 was different from the reported of Pm2a-related gene. When inoculated with multiple B. graminis f. sp. tritici isolates, Pm10V-2 had a significantly different resistance spectrum from Pm2a and other powdery mildew (Pm) resistance genes at or near the Pm2 locus. Therefore, Pm10V-2 may be a new Pm2 allele or Pm2-linked gene. To use Pm10V-2 in marker-assisted selection (MAS) breeding, seven markers applicable for MAS were confirmed, including three newly developed markers (Swgi029, Swgi038, and Swgi064) in the present work. Using these markers, a great number of resistant lines with desirable agronomic performance were selected from crosses involving 10V-2, including the breeding line KM5016, which has been entered in the Regional trials in Hebei Province, China.

Mildew Resistance

Wheat powdery mildew, caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici (Bgt), is a destructive disease seriously threatening yield and quality of common wheat (Triticum aestivum L., 2n=6x=42, AABBDD). Characterization of resistance genes against powdery mildew is useful in parental selection and for developing disease resistant cultivars. Chinese wheat breeding line KN0816 has superior agronomic performance and resistance to powdery mildew at all growth stages. Genetic analysis using populations of KN0816 crossed with different susceptible parents indicated that a single dominant gene, tentatively designated PmKN0816, conferred seedling resistance to different Bgt isolates. Using a bulked segregant analysis (BSA), PmKN0816 was mapped to the Pm6 interval on chromosome arm 2BL using polymorphic markers linked to the catalogued genes Pm6, Pm52, and Pm64, and flanked by markers CISSR02g-6 and CIT02g-2 both with genetic distances of 0.7 cM. Analysis of closely linked molecular markers indicated that the marker alleles of PmKN0816 differed from those of other powdery mildew resistance genes on 2BL, including Pm6, Pm33, Pm51, Pm64, and PmQ. Based on the genetic and physical locations and response pattern to different Bgt isolates, PmKN0816 is most likely a new powdery mildew resistance gene and confers effective resistance to all the 14 tested Bgt isolates. In view of the elite agronomic performance of KN0816 combined with the resistance, PmKN0816 is expected to become a valuable resistance gene in wheat breeding. To transfer PmKN0816 to different genetic backgrounds using marker-assisted selection (MAS), closely linked markers of PmKN0816 were evaluated and four of them (CIT02g-2, CISSR02g-6, CIT02g-10, and CIT02g-17) were confirmed to be applicable for MAS in different genetic backgrounds.

Abstract Wheat powdery mildew is a destructive disease seriously threatening yield and quality. Comprehensive dissection of new resistance-related loci/genes is necessary to control this disease. LS5082 is a Chinese wheat breeding line with resistance to powdery mildew. Genetic analysis indicated that a single dominant gene, tentatively designated PmLS5082, conferred seedling resistance to different Bgt isolates. Bulked segregant RNA-seq (BSR-seq) was carried out to map the R gene PmLS5082 and profile differentially expressed genes associated with PmLS5082. PmLS5082 was mapped to chromosome arm 2BL and flanked by the markers WGGBH612-5 and YTU19-005 with genetic distances of 0.3 and 0.4 cM, respectively. The physical position was subsequently locked into the interval of 710.3-711.0 Mb. PmLS5082 differs from the catalogued Pm genes on chromosome arm 2BL in its resistant spectrum, physical position and origin, suggesting it is most likely a new Pm gene. Through COG and KEGG analysis, differentially expressed genes associated with PmLS5082 were profiled, and six genes in PmLS5082 interval were confirmed to be associated with PmLS5082 via RT-qPCR, using an additional set of wheat samples and time-course analysis post-inoculation with Bgt. In order to transfer PmLS082 to different genetic backgrounds using marker-assisted selection (MAS), closely linked markers, including Kompetitive Allele-Specific PCR (KASP) markers, were evaluated and nine markers were confirmed to be widely applicable for MAS in different genetic backgrounds.

Serious Disease

Powdery mildew is a serious disease for greenhouse and field tomatoes in North America. The main objective of this experiment was to study the genetic inheritance of resistance to powdery mildew in tomato hybrid DRW4409 and to identify simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers linked to the resistance gene. Analysis of a genetic population derived from DRW4409 showed that resistance to powdery mildew is controlled by a single dominant gene. Screening 158 SSR loci found that the SSR marker, LEat014, is linked to this gene at a map distance of 8.0 cM. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of an SSR linked to the resistance gene in DRW4409. Because of its co-dominant nature, this SSR should be useful to breeders in screening tomato plants for resistance to powdery mildew when DRW4409 is used as the resistance gene source.

Triticum Araraticum

A partially dominant gene for seedling resistance to Puccinia graminis f.sp. tritici was transferred from two accessions of Triticum araraticum (PGR 6126 and PGR 6195) to hexaploid wheat by a series of backcrosses. This gene confers an intermediate level (infection type 1+ to 2) of resistance to a large number of P. graminis isolates. Because of linkage with the genes Lr13 (1.0%), Lr23 (4.7%), Lr16 (34.4%), Sr36 (21.9%) and the Sr9 (28.0%) locus, this gene is probably on the short arm of chromosome 2B. It has been assigned the symbol Sr40. No apparent deleterious quality characteristics were associated with the transfer of Sr40. This gene is being combined with the closely linked gene Lr13. This recombinant line should be useful in wheat breeding. The concurrent attempt to transfer resistance to P. recondita from T. araraticum to hexaploid wheat was not successful.Key words: Triticum aestivum, stem rust resistance, Triticum araraticum.

The present study was conducted to transfer multiple rust resistance in a popular but rust susceptible wheat cultivar HS295. Selected derivatives WBM3632 and WBM3635 have been developed from a cross, HS295*2/FLW20//HS295*2/ FLW13 using bulk-pedigree method of breeding. Advance line WBM3697 selected from a breeding line WBM3532 was named as HS661. This line was evaluated for seedling resistance to a wide array of rust pathotypes and found to possess resistance to all the three rusts. HS661 was also tested under field conditions and showed adult plant resistance to leaf rust (AC1=0.6), stem rust (ACI=2.7) and strpe rust (AC1=3.8). Among 34 F3 lines, 28 were tested positive for SSR marker Xwmc221 indicating the presence of Lr19/Sr25. Out of 14 selected F4 lines from F3, nine were homozygous positive for Lr19/Sr25. The advanced breeding lines viz., WBM3632 (WBM3697) and WBM3635 were also positive for Lr19/Sr25 with SCAR marker SCS265512. SSR marker Xgwm1 producing 215 bp band in Avst-15, FLW13 and HS661 confirmed the presence of Yr15 . Agronomically, HS661 was comparable with recipient variety HS295 and superior to a standard check HS490 under late sown restricted irrigation production conditions of NHZ. HS661 may serve as a potential donor for creating new usable variability against all the three rusts.
