Secale cereale is used as a source of genes for disease resistance in wheat cultivation. In this study, a homozygous translocation line (RT14-245) that originated from a cross between a commercial wheat cultivar (Mianyang 11) and a local Chinese variety of rye (Baili) was developed. Multicolor fluorescence in situ hybridization and PCR analysis demonstrated that the translocation chromosome was 7BS.7RL. Resistance analysis showed that RT14-245 was resistant to prevalent pathotypes of stripe rust and powdery mildew. RT14-245 also exhibited high resistance to Fusarium head blight, which was similar to the resistance exhibited by the wheat cultivar Sumai 3. The results indicated that RT14-245 simultaneously exhibited high levels of resistance against stripe rust, powdery mildew, and Fusarium head blight. These results indicate that chromosome arm 7RL in the translocation line RT14-245 is an excellent new resource for wheat breeding programs.

Wheat stripe rust, powdery mildew, and Fusarium head blight (FHB) are the three most important diseases in wheat worldwide. Growing resistant cultivars is the most economic and effective method to control these diseases. To assess the disease resistance of commercial wheat cultivars and regional trial wheat lines in the Huang-Huai-Hai region of China, 146 wheat entries were inoculated with the Chinese prevalent Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst) races CYR32, CYR33, CYR34, and Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici (Bgt) isolate E09 under controlled greenhouse conditions, respectively; these entries were also tested with the mixed Pst races, Bgt and FHB isolates at adult-plant stage in the field, respectively. The results showed that 108 (73.97%), 83 (56.85%), 99 (67.81%), and 22 (15.07%) entries were resistant to CYR32, CYR33, CYR34, and E09 at the seedling stage, respectively; 102 (69.86%), 24 (16.44%), and 2 (1.37%) entries were resistant to stripe rust, powdery mildew, and Fusarium head blight at the adult-plant stage, respectively. Additionally, the possible resistance gene(s) in these entries were postulated by the closely linked markers of stripe rust resistance genes Yr5, Yr9, Yr10, Yr15, Yr17, Yr18, Yr26, powdery mildew resistance gene Pm21, and Fusarium head blight resistance gene Fhb1. Combined with disease resistance and molecular markers tests, 62, nine, and three wheat entries were postulated to carry the Yr9, Yr17, Yr26 gene, respectively, and no entries contained Yr5, Yr10, Yr15, Yr18, Pm21, and Fhb1 gene. This study laid a theoretical foundation for rational utilization of these entries and gene in wheat breeding programs and disease control.

In many regions of the world, wheat is vulnerable to severe yield and quality losses from the fungus disease of Fusarium head blight (FHB). The development of resistant cultivars is one means of ameliorating the devastating effects of this disease, but the breeding process requires the evaluation of hundreds of lines each year for reaction to the disease. These field evaluations are laborious, expensive, time-consuming, and are prone to rater error. A phenotyping cart that can quickly capture images of the spikes of wheat lines and their level of FHB infection would greatly benefit wheat breeding programs. In this study, mask region convolutional neural network (Mask-RCNN) allowed for reliable identification of the symptom location and the disease severity of wheat spikes. Within a wheat line planted in the field, color images of individual wheat spikes and their corresponding diseased areas were labeled and segmented into sub-images. Images with annotated spikes and sub-images of individual spikes with labeled diseased areas were used as ground truth data to train Mask-RCNN models for automatic image segmentation of wheat spikes and FHB diseased areas, respectively. The feature pyramid network (FPN) based on ResNet-101 network was used as the backbone of Mask-RCNN for constructing the feature pyramid and extracting features. After generating mask images of wheat spikes from full-size images, Mask-RCNN was performed to predict diseased areas on each individual spike. This protocol enabled the rapid recognition of wheat spikes and diseased areas with the detection rates of 77.76% and 98.81%, respectively. The prediction accuracy of 77.19% was achieved by calculating the ratio of the wheat FHB severity value of prediction over ground truth. This study demonstrates the feasibility of rapidly determining levels of FHB in wheat spikes, which will greatly facilitate the breeding of resistant cultivars.

We investigated the hypothesis that resistance to deoxynivalenol (DON) is a major resistance factor in the Fusarium head blight (FHB) resistance complex of wheat. Ninety-six double haploid lines from a cross between ‘CM-82036’ and ‘Remus’ were examined. The lines were tested for DON resistance after application of the toxin in the ear, and for resistances to initial infection and spread of FHB after artificial inoculation with Fusarium spp. Toxin application to flowering ears induced typical FHB symptoms. Quantitative trait locus (QTL) analyses detected one locus with a major effect on DON resistance (logarithm of odds = 53.1, R2 = 92.6). The DON resistance phenotype was closely associated with an important FHB resistance QTL, Qfhs.ndsu-3BS, which previously was identified as governing resistance to spread of symptoms in the ear. Resistance to the toxin was correlated with resistance to spread of FHB (r = 0.74, P < 0.001). In resistant wheat lines, the applied toxin was converted to DON-3-O-glucoside as the detoxification product. There was a close relation between the DON-3-glucoside/DON ratio and DON resistance in the toxintreated ears (R2 = 0.84). We conclude that resistance to DON is important in the FHB resistance complex and hypothesize that Qfhs.ndsu-3BS either encodes a DON-glucosyltransferase or regulates the expression of such an enzyme.

The analysis of the phytosanitary situation in production, selection and seed crops of winter rye in Kirov region for the period from 1999 to 2018 was carried out in order to adjust the tasks of breeding for resistance to the most harmful diseases. The affection of the sowings (spread of the disease), the development of the disease and the area of the affected crops relative to the number of the examined ones were evaluated. The trend in the development of the diseases was established on the basis of a regression analysis of long-term data of the branch of the FSBI Rosselkhozcentr in Kirov region. The annual (100 %) manifestation of snow mold and ergot has been established. Next according to the frequency of manifestation there are root rots and brown rust – 95 %, powdery mildew – 75 %, sclerotinia – 70 %, Fusarium head blight – 70 %, and stem rust – 50 %. A relatively low frequency of manifestation has been observed with septoriose and rhynchosporium – 35 and 30 %. However, taking into account the development of winter rye diseases which exceed the economic threshold of harmfulness (ETH), the studied pathocomplexes have different levels of danger. Thus, the development of brown rust above ETH was diagnosed 13 times within 19 years. The most severe disease development (20.0-52.0 %) was in 2001, 2005, 2009, and 2010; weak - in 2007 (0.8 %), 2017 (1.4 %), 2015 (2.4 %), and 2011 (5 %). The manifestation of powdery mildew above ETH was observed 6 times within 15 years, disease development was at the level of 13.0-53.0 %. The development of septoriose above ETH was diagnosed 6 times within 7 years with the development of disease from 13.5 to 63.0 %. Development of stem rust above ETH was diagnosed 5 times within 10 years with the status of the sign of 15.0-20.0 %. The cyclicity of spread of the most harmful diseases and trends of their change in agrocenoses of winter rye are shown. Thus, the most epitphytotically dangerous diseases include snow mold, brown rust, stem rust, powdery mildew and septoriose. Constant control is also required in relation to ergot and Fusarium head blight. These diseases should be an object for breeding-and-immunological studies.
