Venturia Nashicola

Asian pear scab is a fungal disease caused by Venturia nashicola. The identification of genes conferring scab resistance could facilitate the breeding of disease-resistant cultivars. Therefore, the present study aimed to identify a scab-resistance gene using an interspecific hybrid population ((Pyrus pyrifolia × P. communis) × P. pyrifolia). Artificial inoculation of V. nashicola was carried out for two years. The segregation ratio (1:1) of resistant to susceptible individuals indicated that resistance to V. nashicola was inherited from P. communis and controlled by a single dominant gene. Based on two years phenotypic data with the Kruskal–Wallis test and interval mapping, 12 common markers were significantly associated with scab resistance. A novel scab resistance gene, Rvn3, was mapped in linkage group 6 of the interspecific hybrid pear, and co-linearity between Rvn3 and one of the apple scab resistance genes, Rvi14, was confirmed. Notably, an insertion in pseudo-chromosome 6 of the interspecific hybrid cultivar showed homology with apple scab resistance genes. Hence, the newly discovered Rvn3 was considered an ortholog of the apple scab resistance gene. Since the mapping population used in the present study is a pseudo-BC1 population, pyramiding of multiple resistance genes to pseudo-BC1 could facilitate the breeding of pear cultivars with durable resistance.

Scab, caused by Venturia nashicola is one of the most serious diseases of Asian pears including Japanese pear (Pyrus pyrifolia var. culta) and Chinese pears (P. bretschneideri and P. ussuriensis). Breeding of scab-resistant pear cultivars is essential to minimize the use of fungicides and the risk of fungicide resistance developing in the pathogen. A survey of pathogenic specialization in V. nashicola is needed to ensure durable scab resistance in cultivated pears. Race 1, 2, and 3 isolates of V. nashicola, each differing in pathogenicity to Japanese pear cv. Kousui and Asian pear strain Mamenashi 12, have been reported from Japan. In the present study, isolates collected from scabbed pears in China and Taiwan were classified as V. nashicola based on conidial size and mating ability. However, various isolates were found to have pathogenicity distinct from races 1, 2, and 3 in tests on seven differential host genotypes: Kousui; Mamenashi 12; Chinese pear cvs. Jingbaili, Yali, Linyuli, Nanguoli; and Taiwanese pear cv. Hengshanli. The new races were designated as races 4 to 7. Progenies characteristic of race 3 isolates were produced in a cross between race 1 and race 2 isolates, suggesting the possible role of sexual recombination in the emergence of novel races. Japanese pear cv. Kinchaku and cv. Xiangli of P. sinkiangensis (Korla fragrant pear grown in China) didn’t show visible symptoms after inoculation with any of the seven races. The broad scab resistance in Kinchaku and Xiangli makes them a promising genetic resource for resistance breeding programs.
