Powdery mildew caused by Podosphaera xanthii is a major disease of watermelon in Israel. In this study, 291 accessions of Citrullus spp. were evaluated for resistance against P. xanthii race 1W. Only eight accessions exhibited high level of resistance. Inheritance of resistance against P. xanthii race 1W was studied by crossing three resistant accession of Citrullus lanatus var. citroides BIU 119, PI 189225, or PI 482312 with the susceptible cultivar ‘Malali’ or ‘Sugar Baby’. Parents, F1, F2, and back cross progenies were evaluated for resistance in growth chambers at the cotyledon stage and the 4-leaf stage and in the field, at the 15-leaf stage. Resistance at the cotyledon stage was controlled by a single, partially dominant gene, whereas at the 4-leaf stage or the 15-leaf stage resistance was controlled by three complimentary, partially dominant genes. Crosses made among these resistant accessions revealed that BIU 119 and PI 189225 carry the same genes for resistance, whereas PI 482312 shares two out of three genes with both BIU 119 and PI 189225. A breeding line with high resistance level and good fruit qualities was developed from BIU 119 × HA5500.

The inheritance of resistance to a culture of race 8 of powdery mildew was studied in the resistant barley varieties Ottawa 5069-40 and B294. Ottawa 5069-40 possesses one dominant gene for resistance which is probably the gene from the variety Duplex. B294 possesses two dominant genes for resistance. The three resistance genes are inherited independently. No linkage was detected between the resistance genes and the genes for row number, awn type, and rachilla hair length.

The inheritance of resistance to oat crown rust was studied in three accessions of Avena sterilis L. Accession CAV 4274 originated from Morocco, CAV 4540 from Algeria, and CAV 3695 from Tunisia. Seedling rust tests on F2 backcross families indicated the presence of two dominant genes for crown rust resistance in CAV 4274. One of these, a gene conditioning resistance to most races tested, was linked or allelic to gene Pc-38, and was designated gene Pc-62. The second gene conferred resistance only to one of the six races studied, and was not tested further. In CAV 4540, a single dominant gene, Pc-63 was possibly allelic with Pc-62 and linked or allelic to Pc-38. Genes Pc-62 and 63 are generally similar to Pc-38 in their resistance spectrum, but these three genes are differentiated by races CR 102, CR 103, and CR 107. A single dominant gene in CAV 3695 appeared to be Pc-50.

Four barley varieties, each immune to a Valki-attacking culture of loose smut (designated as race 2), were studied with respect to the inheritance of their resistance. Jet (C.I. 967) and Nigrinudum (C.I. 2222) were each found to possess two independent dominant genes determining resistance. Steudelli (C.I. 2266) proved to be immune to race 2 through the action of a single dominant gene, while resistance of Hillsa (C.I. 1604) was found to be conditioned by two complementary dominant genes. The absence of susceptible F3 families in crosses between Jet, Nigrinudum, and Steudelli indicated that these three varieties have in common a gene or genes for resistance to the race of smut used. The two complementary genes for resistance in Hillsa proved to be distinct from those of the other three varieties under study.The use of genetic analyses of disease resistance based upon classification of F3 families of the backcross to the resistant source is described and the merits of such a method are discussed.

The inheritance of resistance to Puccinia coronata, awn development, lemma pubescence, and lemma color were studied in the Avena sterilis accessions CAV 4248, CAV 4656, and CAV 4904. Three independent, partially dominant genes (Pc-64, Pc-65, Pc-66) in CAV 4248, one partially dominant gene (Pc-67) in CAV 4656, and a dominant gene (Pc-68) in CAV 4904 were identified which conferred resistance to P. coronata. Genes Pc-64, Pc-65, Pc-66, Pc-67, and Pc-68 conferred resistance to 13, 8, 6, 12, and 14 races, respectively, of the 14 races of P. coronata tested. Gene Pc-68 conferred resistance to all field isolates of P. coronata collected in Canada in 1981 and was found to be closely linked or allelic to gene Pc-46. Awns and lemma pubescence were inherited monogenically in crosses with all three CAV accessions. Grey lemma color was controlled by one gene in CAV 4248 and by two genes in CAV 4656. Brown lemma color was controlled by one gene, which was closely linked or pleiotropic with the gene for lemma pubescence in CAV 4904. There was no association between crown rust resistance and the three floret characters studied.

Information on the mode of inheritance of powdery mildew resistance in watermelon is important for designing a breeding strategy for the development of new cultivars. Resistance in the watermelon accession PI 270545 was investigated by generation means analysis by crossing it with susceptible PI 267677. The analyses showed involvement of two genes, a recessive resistance gene, pmr-1, and a dominant gene for moderate resistance, Pmr-2. Resistance to powdery mildew in the leaf had a large dominance effect and a heritability of 71%. The additive-dominance model was inadequate in explaining variation in leaf resistance as revealed by the joint scaling test. However, nonallelic interactions could not be detected by the nonweighted six-parameter scaling test. For stem resistance, the additive-dominance model was adequate, and inheritance was controlled mainly by additive effects. A high narrow-sense heritability of 79% suggested that selection for stem resistance in early generations would be effective.

Inheritance of resistance to the fruit fly Dacus cucurbitae Coq., was studied in intervarietal crosses of watermelon Citrullus lanatus (Thunb.) Mansf. Two sources of resistance J 18-1 and J 56-1 were used. The resistance of watermelon to the fruit fly was controlled by a single dominant gene. The symbol Fwr has been proposed to denote the resistant gene.

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.

Resistance to Black rot was studied in B. oleracea, B. campestris and B. napus, using three different inoculation procedures. The results indicated that hydathode inoculation without wounding and the wound suspension technique were useful for differentiating levels of resistance found in B. oleracea and B. campestris, but not in B. napus. Only the wound colony method allowed differentiation between high and moderate resistance in B napus. B. napus, PI 199947 and PI 199949, exhibited the highest resistance found in cultivated Brassica species. In B. campestris, two chinese cabbage accessions showed quantitative inheritance for moderate levels of resistance. In B. napus, the high level of reistance was conferred by one dominant gene, to which the symbol Br was assigned, whereas the moderate resistance was due to one recessive gene bm.

Cucurbit Powdery Mildew

Cucurbit powdery mildew (CPM) caused by Podosphaera xanthii (Px) is an economically important disease of bitter gourd (BG; Momordica charantia) in Asia. High-level resistance to CPM is known in various BG accessions that have been used to develop BG breeding lines that originated in different countries. BG breeding lines THMC 113 (Belize), THMC 143 (India), THMC 153 (Thailand), THMC 167 (India), and THMC 170 (Taiwan) possess high-level resistance to BG Px race (BG-CPM), designated Mc-1 from a field at Kamphaeng Saen, Thailand, whereas THMC 144 (India) is susceptible. Our objective was to determine the inheritance of resistance to BG-CPM race Mc-1. To that end, THMC 144 (India) was crossed with the five resistant lines. The parents and their respective F1, F2, backcross progenies were evaluated for BG-CPM disease severity in inoculated field and growth chamber tests. Resistance to BG-CPM race Mc-1 in the five resistant lines was controlled by at least two independent, recessive genes. Intercrosses of the BG-CPM–resistant lines revealed allelic resistances in four of the breeding lines: THMC 113, THMC 153, THMC 167, and THMC 170. Resistance in THMC 143 was clearly non-allelic for resistance to BG-CPM with the other four BG-CPM–resistant lines.

A study was conducted to determine the inheritance of resistance to soybean rust in three soybean accessions-PI200492, Tainung 3 and Tainung 4. The results suggest that PI200492 and Tainung 3 contain the same single dominant gene for resistance, and that Tainung 4 contains two dominant genes for resistance, one of which is identical with that in PI200492 and Tainung 3.
