Interspecific Transfer

A gene for stem rust resistance from Aegilops caudata was successfully incorporated into the genome of common wheat using the chromosome 5B method to promote homoeologous pairing. Following the initial cross of Ae. caudata with a monosomic 5B hexaploid plant, F1 plants that were resistant in the seedling stage were subsequently backcrossed eight times to hexaploid wheat. The gene was highly effective at the seedling but not at the adult-plant stage. Stem-rust-resistant selections derived from similar crosses with Ae. triuncialis were shown to be either chromosome substitution or addition lines.Key words: Aegilops caudata, Triticum aestivum, stem rust resistance, interspecific transfer

Cytogenetic Evidence

Backcross lines of gene LrT2 for resistance to leaf rust in the common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) 'Thatcher' unexpectedly show improved resistance to stem rust compared with that of the recurrent parent. Genetic–cytogenetic evidence indicates that LrT2 is on chromosome 7D, which is known to carry the "suppressor" gene(s) that prevent the expression of stem rust resistance conferred by other genes in 'Canthatch'. Thus, LrT2 may be a nonsuppressing allele of the suppressor gene(s) or be closely linked to such an allele. LrT2 has been designated Lr34. Key words: Triticum, wheat, rust resistance.

Seedling resistances to stem rust, leaf rust and stripe rust were evaluated in the 37th International Triticale Screening Nursery, distributed by the International Wheat and Maize Improvement Centre (CIMMYT) in 2005. In stem rust tests, 12 and 69 of a total of 81 entries were postulated to carry Sr27 and SrSatu, respectively. When compared with previous studies of CIMMYT triticale nurseries distributed from 1980 to 1986 and 1991 to 1993, the results suggest a lack of expansion in the diversity of stem rust resistance. A total of 62 of 64 entries were resistant to five leaf rust pathotypes. In stripe rust tests, ~93% of the lines were postulated to carry Yr9 alone or in combination with other genes. The absence of Lr26 in these entries indicated that Yr9 and Lr26 are not genetically associated in triticale. A high proportion of nursery entries (63%) were postulated to carry an uncharacterised gene, YrJackie. The 13 lines resistant to stripe rust and the 62 entries resistant to leaf rust represent potentially useful sources of seedling resistance in developing new triticale cultivars. Field rust tests are needed to verify if seedling susceptible entries also carry adult plant resistance.

A partially dominant gene for adult-plant leaf rust resistance together with a linked, partially dominant gene for stem rust resistance were transferred to the hexaploid wheat cultivar 'Marquis' from an amphiploid of Aegilops speltoides × Triticum monococcum by direct crossing and backcrossing. Pathological evidence indicated that the alien resistance genes were derived from Ae. speltoides. Differential transmission of the resistance genes through the male gametes occurred in hexaploid hybrids involving the resistant 'Marquis' stock and resulted in distorted segregation ratios. In heterozygotes, pairing between the chromosome arm with the alien segment and the corresponding arm of the normal wheat chromosome was greatly reduced. The apparent close linkage between the two resistance genes, 3 ± 1.07 crossover units, was misleading because of this decrease in pairing in the presence of the 5B diploidizing mechanism. The newly identified gene for adult-plant leaf rust resistance, located on chromosome 2B, is different from adult-plant resistance genes Lr12, Lr13, and Lr22 and from that in the hexaploid accession PI250413; it has been designated Lr35. It is not known whether the newly transferred gene for stem rust resistance differs from Sr32, also derived from Ae. speltoides and located on chromosomes 2B.Key words: hexaploid, Triticum, Aegilops, aneuploid, Puccinia graminis, Puccinia recondita.

The inheritance of resistance to races 15B and 56 of stem rust was studied in the varieties Kenya 58, Kenya 117A, Kenya C9906, Kenya 338.AC.2.E.2, Kenya Governor, Kenya B286, Kenya 291.J.1.I.1, Kenya 321.BT.1.B.1 and Kenya 350.AD.9.C.2. The first five varieties had been studied previously and crosses involving them were not repeated. The genetic analysis of the varieties was based on diallel crosses and backcrosses to a susceptible parent, Marquis.All nine varieties proved to carry Sr7, a gene which conditions resistance to race 15B. Four varieties, Kenya 58, Kenya C9906, Kenya 291 and Kenya 350, carry the gene Sr6, which conditions a hypersensitive reaction to both race 15B and race 56. In addition, four of the varieties carry Sr9 and five carry Sr10, two genes which produce moderate resistance to race 56. Kenya 338.AC.2.E.2 carries two additional dominant, complementary genes, Sr11 and Sr12, which condition resistance to race 56.The genes, Sr9, Sr10, Sr11 and Sr12 are important modifiers of the resistance to race 15B conditioned by Sr7, with Sr9 probably having the greatest effect.

Oat stem rust, caused by Puccinia graminis f. sp. avenae (Pga), is one of the most devastating diseases of oat. The most cost-effective and eco-friendly strategy to control this disease is the use of resistant cultivars. However, P. graminis f. sp. avenae can overcome the resistance of cultivars by rapidly changing its virulence. Thus, information on the virulence of P. graminis f. sp. avenae populations and resistance of cultivars is critical to control the disease. The current study was conducted to monitor the virulence composition and dynamics in the P. graminis f. sp. avenae population in China and to evaluate resistance of oat cultivars. Oat leaves naturally infected by P. graminis f. sp. avenae were collected during 2018 and 2019 and 159 isolates were derived from single uredinia. The isolates were tested on 12 international differential lines, and eight races, TJJ, TBD, TJB, TJD, TJL, TJN, TGD, and TKN, were identified for the first time in China. The predominant race was TJD, virulent against Pg1, Pg2, Pg3, Pg4, Pg8, Pg9, and Pg15, accounting for 35.8% and 37.8% in 2018 and 2019, respectively. The sub-predominant races were TJN (30.2% in 2018, 28.3% in 2019) and TKN (20.8% in 2018, 12.3% in 2019). All isolates were virulent to Pg1, Pg2, Pg3, and Pg4, and avirulent to Pg6 and Pg16. The three predominant races (TJD, TJN, and TKN) were used to evaluate resistance in 30 Chinese oat cultivars at the seedling and adult-plant stages. Five cultivars, Bayan 1, Baiyan 2, Baiyan 3, Baiyan 5, and Baiyan 9, were highly resistant to the three races at both seedling and adult-plant stages. The results of the virulences and frequencies of P. graminis f. sp. avenae races and the resistant cultivars will be useful in understanding the pathogen migration and evolution and for breeding oat cultivars with stem rust resistance.
