Powdery mildew caused by Erysiphe pisi DC. severely affects pea crops worldwide. The use of resistant cultivars containing the er1 gene is the most effective way to control this disease. The objectives of this study were to reveal er1 alleles contained in 55 E. pisi-resistant pea germplasms and to develop the functional markers of novel alleles. Sequences of 10 homologous PsMLO1 cDNA clones from each germplasm accession were used to determine their er1 alleles. The frame shift mutations and various alternative splicing patterns were observed during transcription of the er1 gene. Two novel er1 alleles, er1-8 and er1-9, were discovered in the germplasm accessions G0004839 and G0004400, respectively, and four known er1 alleles were identified in 53 other accessions. One mutation in G0004839 was characterized by a 3-bp (GTG) deletion of the wild-type PsMLO1 cDNA, resulting in a missing valine at position 447 of the PsMLO1 protein sequence. Another mutation in G0004400 was caused by a 1-bp (T) deletion of the wild-type PsMLO1 cDNA sequence, resulting in a serine to leucine change of the PsMLO1 protein sequence. The er1-8 and er1-9 alleles were verified using resistance inheritance analysis and genetic mapping with respectively derived F2 and F2:3 populations. Finally, co-dominant functional markers specific to er1-8 and er1-9 were developed and validated in populations and pea germplasms. These results improve our understanding of E. pisi resistance in pea germplasms worldwide and provide powerful tools for marker-assisted selection in pea breeding.

Powdery mildew occurred widely on faba beans (Vicia faba L.) in Manitoba in 1974. Mycelia, and conidia were abundant on both leaf surfaces. The fungus later developed numerous cleistothecia 99–143 μm in diam, with rigid appendages, 128–286 μm in length, dichotomously branched at their apices and ending in recurved tips. Frequently, appendages were contorted and irregularly branched. Cleistothecia contained 5–8 asci. The fungus produced mildew symptoms on Lathyrus ochroleucus Hook., L. odoratus L., L. latifolius L., and Vicia americana Muhl., but failed to infect Lonicera tatarica L., Pisum sativum L., and Syringa vulgaris L. The fungus was identified as Microsphaera penicillata (Wall. ex Fr.) Lév. var. ludens (Salmon) Cooke on the basis of morphological characters and pathogenicity. Lathyrus spp. are new hosts of the fungus. L. ochroleucus and V. americana may be sources of primary inoculum of the fungus in Manitoba. Erysiphe pisi DC. reported to occur on V. faba was not found on any of the specimens.

The efficacy of sulfur (Kumulus S) and myclobutanil (Nova 40W) fungicides for control of powdery mildew (Erysiphe pisi Syd) in field pea (Pisum sativum L.) was investigated in field trials at two locations in Manitoba in 1994 and 1995. Both fungicides were effective in reducing disease seventy and increasing seed yield and seed weight of the susceptible cultivar Radley. Fungicide treatments were economically beneficial when disease pressure was high. Key words: Field pea, Pisum sativum L., powdery mildew, Erysiphe pisi Syd., sulfur, myclobutanil
