Abstract
Wheat (Triticum aestivum) is a commercially important crop and its production is seriously threatened by the fungal pathogen Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici West (Pst). Resistance (R) genes are critical factors that facilitate plant immune responses. Here, we report a wheat R gene NB-ARC-LRR ortholog, TaYRG1, that is associated with distinct alternative splicing events in wheat infected by Pst. The native splice variant, TaYRG1.6, encodes internal-motif-deleted polypeptides with the same N- and C-termini as TaYRG1.1, resulting in gain of function. Transient expression of protein variants in Nicotiana benthamiana showed that the NB and ARC domains, and TaYRG1.6 (half LRR domain), stimulate robust elicitor-independent cell death based on a signal peptide, although the activity was negatively modulated by the CC and complete LRR domains. Furthermore, molecular genetic analyses indicated that TaYRG1.6 enhanced resistance to Pst in wheat. Moreover, we provide multiple lines of evidence that TaYRG1.6 interacts with a dynamin-related protein, TaDrp1. Proteome profiling suggested that the TaYRG1.6-TaDrp1-DNM complex in the membrane trafficking systems may trigger cell death by mobilizing lipid and kinase signaling in the endocytosis pathway. Our findings reveal a unique mechanism by which TaYRG1 activates cell death and enhances disease resistance by reconfiguring protein structure through alternative splicing.

Development and Molecular Cytogenetic Characterization of a Novel Wheat-Rye T6RS.6AL Translocation Line from Secale cereale L. Qinling with Resistance to Stripe Rust and Powdery Mildew. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms231810495. [PMID: 36142406 PMCID: PMC9502444 DOI: 10.3390/ijms231810495] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/16/2022] [Revised: 08/26/2022] [Accepted: 09/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
In this study, a novel T6RS.6AL translocation line, 117-6, was selected from a cross between common Chuannong25 (CN25) wheat and Qinling rye. The results of nondenaturing fluorescence in situ hybridization (ND-FISH) and PCR showed that 117-6 contained two T6RS.6AL translocation chromosomes. The distal region of the 6RS chromosome in 117-6 was mutant and showed different FISH signal patterns. When inoculated with different stripe rust races and powdery mildew races in seedlings, 117-6 expressed high resistance to them. The 117-6 line also exhibited high resistance to stripe rust and powdery mildew in the field under natural Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst) and Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici (Bgt) infection. The cytogenetic analysis indicated that the introduction of 6RS conferred resistance ability. Compared with wheat parent CN25, 117-6 exhibited excellent agronomic traits in the field. The present study indicated that Qinling rye may carry favorite genes as a potential source for wheat genetic improvement, and 117-6 could be a useful germplasm for wheat breeding programs in the future.

Cytogenetic and Molecular Marker Analyses of a Novel Wheat–Psathyrostachys huashanica 7Ns Disomic Addition Line with Powdery Mildew Resistance. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms231810285.

Abstract
Powdery mildew caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici is a devastating disease that reduces wheat yield and quality worldwide. The exploration and utilization of new resistance genes from wild wheat relatives is the most effective strategy against this disease. Psathyrostachys huashanica Keng f. ex P. C. Kuo (2n = 2x = 14, NsNs) is an important tertiary gene donor with multiple valuable traits for wheat genetic improvement, especially disease resistance. In this study, we developed and identified a new wheat—P. huashanica disomic addition line, 18-1-5—derived from a cross between P. huashanica and common wheat lines Chinese Spring and CSph2b. Sequential genomic and multicolor fluorescence in situ hybridization analyses revealed that 18-1-5 harbored 21 pairs of wheat chromosomes plus a pair of alien Ns chromosomes. Non-denaturing fluorescence in situ hybridization and molecular marker analyses further demonstrated that the alien chromosomes were derived from chromosome 7Ns of P. huashanica. The assessment of powdery mildew response revealed that line 18-1-5 was highly resistant at the adult stage to powdery mildew pathogens prevalent in China. The evaluation of agronomic traits indicated that 18-1-5 had a significantly reduced plant height and an increased kernel length compared with its wheat parents. Using genotyping-by-sequencing technology, we developed 118 PCR-based markers specifically for chromosome 7Ns of P. huashanica and found that 26 of these markers could be used to distinguish the genomes of P. huashanica and other wheat-related species. Line 18-1-5 can therefore serve as a promising bridging parent for wheat disease resistance breeding. These markers should be conducive for the rapid, precise detection of P. huashanica chromosomes and chromosomal segments carrying Pm resistance gene(s) during marker-assisted breeding and for the investigation of genetic differences and phylogenetic relationships among diverse Ns genomes and other closely related ones.

Abstract
Thinopyrum intermedium (JJJsJsStSt, 2n = 6x = 42), a member of tertiary gene pool of hexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum L., AABBDD, 2n = 6x = 42), provides several beneficial genes for wheat improvement. In this study, line CH51 was developed from the BC1F8 progeny of a partial wheat-Th. intermedium amphiploid TAI8335 (2n = 56) and wheat cultivar (cv.) Jintai 170. Somatic metaphase chromosome counting showed that CH51 had stable 42 chromosomes. Genomic in situ hybridization (GISH) analysis showed that CH51 had 40 wheat chromosomes and two Th. intermedium chromosomes involving translocation between Js- and St-genome chromosomes. Non-denaturing fluorescence in situ hybridization (ND-FISH) analysis revealed that CH51 lacked a pair of wheat chromosome 6B. Wheat 55K SNP array analysis verified that chromosome 6B had the highest percentage of missing SNP loci in both CH51 and Chinese Spring (CS) nullisomic 6B-tetrasomic 6D (CS-N6BT6D) and had the highest percentage of polymorphic SNP loci between CH51 and cv. Jintai 170. We identified that CH51 was a wheat-Th. intermedium T6StS.6JsL (6B) disomic substitution line. Disease resistance assessment showed that CH51 exhibited high levels of resistance to the prevalent Chinese leaf rust and stripe rust races in the field. Therefore, the newly developed line CH51 can be utilized as a potential germplasm in wheat disease resistance breeding.

Abstract
Six wheat-Thinopyrum ponticum disomic addition lines derived from partial amphiploid Xiaoyan 7430 were identified using in situ hybridization and SNP microarray, the homoeologous group and stripe rust resistance of each alien chromosome were determined, and Th. ponticum chromosome-specific markers were developed. Xiaoyan 7430 is a significant partial amphiploid, which is used to set up a bridge for transferring valuable genes from Thinopyrum ponticum (Podp.) Barkworth & D.R. Dewey into common wheat. To accelerate the application of these useful genes in enriching the genetic variability of cultivated wheat by chromosome engineering, a complete set of derived addition lines has been created from Xiaoyan 7430. The chromosome composition of each line was characterized by the combination of genomic in situ hybridization and multicolor fluorescence in situ hybridization (mc-FISH), and the homoeology of each alien chromosome was determined by wheat SNP microarray analysis. Addition line WTA55 with alien group-6 chromosome was evaluated resistant to stripe rust isolates at both the seedling and grain-filling stages (Zadoks scale at z.11 and z.73). Diagnostic marker analysis proved that it could carry a novel stripe rust resistance gene derived from Th. ponticum. Furthermore, a FISH probe and 45 molecular markers specific for alien chromosomes were developed based on specific-locus amplified fragment sequencing (SLAF-seq). Of which 27 markers were separately located on single alien chromosome, and some of them could be used to identify the derived translocation lines. This set of addition lines as well as the molecular markers and the FISH probe will promote the introgression of abundant variation from Th. ponticum into wheat in wheat improvement programs.

Abstract
Thinopyrum intermedium (JJJsJsStSt, 2n = 6x = 42), a wild relative of common wheat, possesses many desirable agronomic genes for wheat improvement. The production of wheat-Thinopyrum intermedium introgression lines is a key step for transferring these beneficial genes into wheat. In this study, we characterized three wheat-Thinopyrum intermedium introgression lines TA3681, TA5566, and TA5567 using non-denaturing fluorescence in situ hybridization, genomic in situ hybridization, PCR-based landmark unique gene, and intron targeting markers. Our results showed that TA3681 is a wheat-Thinopyrum intermedium 1St disomic addition line, TA5566 is a wheat-Thinopyrum intermedium non-Robertsonian translocation line carrying two pairs of 3A-7Js translocation chromosomes, and that TA5567 is a wheat-Thinopyrum intermedium non-Robertsonian translocation line carrying a pair of 3A-7Js translocation chromosomes. We developed 13, 36, and 15 Thinopyrum intermedium chromosome-specific markers for detecting the introgressed Thinopyrum chromosomes in TA3681, TA5566, and TA5567, respectively. Stem rust assessment revealed that TA3681 exhibited a high level of seedling resistance to Chinese-prevalent Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici pathotypes, and both TA5566 and TA5567 were highly resistant to Australian P. graminis f. sp. tritici pathotypes, indicating that Thinopyrum intermedium chromosomes 1St and 7Js might carry new stem rust resistance genes. Therefore, the new identified introgression lines may be useful for improving wheat stem rust resistance.

Abstract
Powdery mildew, caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici, is a devastating disease of wheat that seriously affects yield and quality worldwide. Because of the extensive growth of wheat cultivars with homogeneous genetic background, exploring novel resistant resources from wheat relatives has become important for increasing the genetic diversity of wheat. Rye (Secale cereale) is a wheat relative possessing abundant resistance genes because of its high variation. Wheat line AL69, resistant to powdery mildew, was developed by crossing, backcrossing, and self-pollination for multiple generations between hexaploid triticale Zhongsi 237 and common wheat cultivar Zimai 17. Through genomic in situ hybridization (GISH) and multicolor fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), nondenaturing FISH, multicolor GISH, and selection with specific molecular markers, AL69 was determined to be a wheat-rye 2R (2D) disomic substitution line. Testing with different B. graminis f. sp. tritici isolates and genetic analysis showed that the all-stage resistance (also called seedling resistance) of AL69 was conferred by the cataloged powdery mildew resistance gene Pm4b derived from Zimai 17, and its adult-plant resistance was derived from the alien chromosome 2R of Zhongsi 237, which was found to be different from the previously reported rye-derived Pm genes, including Pm7 on 2RL. In addition, AL69 showed improved spike number per plant, spike length, fertile spikelet number per spike, kernel number per spike, and grain yield per plant compared with its wheat parent Zimai 17. An elite line S251 combining powdery mildew resistance with excellent agronomic performance was selected from the progenies of AL69 and wheat cultivar Jimai 22. Therefore, AL69 has two types of resistance genes to powdery mildew and improved agronomic traits through pyramiding and thus can be used as a promising genetic stock for wheat breeding.

Abstract
To study the effects of structural alterations of chromosomes caused by tandem repeats on the meiotic recombination, the wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) 5A chromosomes with different structure from ten wheat cultivars were used to investigate their meiotic recombination using non-denaturing fluorescence in situ hybridization (ND-FISH) technology. Fifteen cross combinations were carried out and they were divided into seven F1 categories. The structural difference between the intercalary regions of the long arms of the two 5A chromosomes (5AL) in the F1 categories III, VI, and VII was greater than that in the categories I and II, subsequently, the recombination frequencies in the distal regions of the 5AL arm in the progenies from the three categories were significantly lower than that from the categories I and II. For the two 5A chromosomes in the F1 categories VI and VII, the structural differences in the distal regions of both of the two arms were greater than that in the categories IV and V. So, the recombination frequencies in the intercalary region of the 5AL arm in the progeny from the categories IV and V were higher than that in the progeny from the categories VI and VII. The breakage of 5A chromosome together with the 5A translocations and the breakage of some other chromosomes were observed in the progeny from the F1 categories V, VI, and VII. These chromosomal variations were not observed in the progenies from the other four F1 categories. In conclusion, the smaller structural difference between the 5A chromosomes in distal regions of the two arms resulted in a higher recombination frequency in interstitial region and vice versa. The 5A chromosome with complex cytological structure can be used to induce genetic variations of wheat genome.

Abstract
Stripe rust and powdery mildew are devastating diseases that have severe effects on wheat production. Introducing resistant genes/loci from wheat-related species into the wheat genome is an important method to improve wheat resistance. Rye (Secale cereale L.) is a cross-pollinating plant and is the most important related species for wheat genetic improvement. In this study, we developed three 6RS ditelosomic addition lines, three 6RL ditelosomic addition lines, and two 6R disomic addition lines by crossing common wheat cultivar Chuannong 25 and rye inbred line QL2. The chromosome composition of all new lines was confirmed by non-denaturing fluorescence in situ hybridization (ND-FISH) and molecular marker analyses. Disease responses to different Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst) races and Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici (Bgt) isolates and cytogenetic analysis showed that the resistance of the new lines was derived from the rye chromosome 6R of QL2, and both arms (6RS and 6RL) may harbor resistance genes against Pst and Bgt. These new lines could be used as a promising bridging parent and valuable genetic resource for wheat disease resistance improvement.

Centromere-Specific Single-Copy Sequences of Secale Species. PLANTS 2022; 11:plants11162117. [PMID: 36015420 PMCID: PMC9414614 DOI: 10.3390/plants11162117] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/24/2022] [Revised: 08/07/2022] [Accepted: 08/12/2022] [Indexed: 12/22/2022]
Abstract
Single-copy FISH analysis is a useful tool to physically locate a given sequence on chromosome. Centromeric single-copy sequences can be used to locate the position of centromere and disclose the subtle differences among different centromeres. Nine centromeric single-copy sequences 1R1, 3R1, 4R1, 4R2, 5R1, 5R2, 6R2, 6R3, and 7R1 were cloned from Kustro (Secale cereale L.). FISH analysis using these sequences as probes indicated that the signals of 1R1, 3R1, 4R1, 4R2, 5R1, 5R2, 6R1, 6R2, and 7R1 were located in the centromeric regions of rye 1R, 3R, 4R, 4R, 5R, 5R, 6R, 6R, and 7R chromosomes, respectively. In addition, for each of the centromeric single-copy sequences, high sequence similarity was observed among different Secale species. Combined with rye genomic sequence, single-copy FISH analysis indicated that the 1BL.1RS translocations in wheat cultivar CN17 and wheat line 20T363-4 contained the centromeric segment of 1R chromosome from 349,498,361 to 349,501,266 bp, and the 1BL.1RS translocations in the other two wheat cultivars did not contain this segment. The nine sequences are useful in determining the centromere location on rye chromosomes, and they have the potential to disclose the accurate structural differences of centromeres among the wheat-rye centric fusion translocation chromosomes; therefore, more centromeric single-copy sequences are needed.

Abstract
Thinopyrum intermedium possesses many desirable agronomic traits that make it a valuable genetic source for wheat improvement. The precise identification of individual chromosomes of allohexaploid Th. intermedium is a challenge due to its three sub-genomic constitutions with complex evolutionary ancestries. The non-denaturing fluorescent in situ hybridization (ND-FISH) using tandem-repeat oligos, including Oligo-B11 and Oligo-pDb12H, effectively distinguished the St, J and JS genomes, while Oligo-FISH painting, based on seven oligonucleotide pools derived from collinear regions between barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) and wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), was able to identify each linkage group of the Th. intermedium chromosomes. We subsequently established the first karyotype of Th. intermedium with individual chromosome recognition using sequential ND-FISH and Oligo-FISH painting. The chromosome constitutions of 14 wheat–Th. intermedium partial amphiploids and addition lines were characterized. Distinct intergenomic chromosome rearrangements were revealed among Th. intermedium chromosomes in these amphiploids and addition lines. The precisely defined karyotypes of these wheat–Th. intermedium derived lines may be helpful for further study on chromosome evolution, chromatin introgression and wheat breeding programs.

Abstract
Stripe rust (caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici) is one of the most severe diseases for wheat production. An important method to improve the stripe rust resistance of wheat is to introduce resistance genes from related species into the wheat genome. The 1RS.1BL wheat-rye translocation from Petkus rye has contributed substantially to wheat resistance breeding worldwide. However, given the breakdown of the stripe rust resistance gene Yr9 in 1RS, its importance for wheat improvement has decreased. In this study, we developed 166 new primary 1RS.1BL translocation lines by crossing rye varieties Weining, Baili, and Aigan with several wheat cultivars. Cytogenetic and molecular analyses indicated that all of these lines contained a pair of intact 1RS.1BL translocation chromosomes. The stripe rust resistance of these translocation lines and their wheat parents was evaluated in southwestern China during the severe stripe rust epidemics in 2015 and 2021. The results showed diverse effects of the 1RS.1BL translocations from different rye cultivars on resistance to stripe rust. The highest genetic diversity was observed in 1RS.1BL translocations derived from diverse rye varieties but in the same wheat background. The development of diverse 1RS.1BL translocation lines offers ample opportunities to introduce new variations into wheat for improving stripe rust resistance. Finally, 71 new translocation lines, including nine developed from the cross of MY11 × Aigan, four from MY11 × Baili, 40 from MY11 × Weining, 14 from A42912 × Baili, and four from A42912 × Weining. These lines showed consistent resistance to stripe rust in fields under frequent changes of the pathogen races and could be useful genetic stocks for breeding wheat cultivars with resistance to stripe rust.

Abstract
Powdery mildew is one of the most destructive diseases in wheat production. Identifying novel resistance genes and deploying them in new cultivars is the most effective approach to minimize wheat losses caused by powdery mildew. In this study, wheat breeding line PBDH1607 showed high resistance to powdery mildew at both the seedling and adult plant stages. Genetic analysis of the seedling data demonstrated that the resistance was controlled by a single dominant gene, tentatively designated PmPBDH. The ΔSNP index based on bulked segregant RNA sequencing indicated that PmPBDH was associated with an interval of about 30.8 Mb (713.5 to 744.3 Mb) on chromosome arm 4AL. Using newly developed markers, we mapped PmPBDH to a 3.2-cM interval covering 7.1 Mb (719,055,516 to 726,215,121 bp). This interval differed from those of Pm61 (717,963,176 to 719,260,469 bp), MlIW30 (732,769,506 to 732,790,522 bp), and MlNSF10 (729,275,816 to 731,365,462 bp) reported on the same chromosome arm. PmPBDH also differed from Pm61, MlIW30, and MlNSF10 by its response spectrum, origin, or inheritance mode, suggesting that PmPBDH should be a new Pm gene. In the candidate interval, five genes were found to be associated with PmPBDH via time course gene expression analysis, and thus they are candidate genes of PmPBDH. Six closely linked markers, including two kompetitive allele-specific PCR markers, were confirmed to be applicable for tracking PmPBDH in marker-assisted breeding.

Abstract
The powdery mildew resistance locus was mapped to A. cristatum chromosome 6PL bin (0.27-0.51) and agronomic traits evaluation indicated that this locus has potential breeding application value. Agropyron cristatum (2n = 4x = 28, PPPP) is a wild relative of wheat with an abundance of biotic and abiotic stress resistance genes and is considered one of the best exogenous donor relatives for wheat breeding. A number of wheat-A. cristatum derived lines have been generated, including addition lines, translocation lines and deletion lines. In this study, the 6P disomic addition line 4844-12 (2n = 2x = 44) was confirmed to have genetic effects on powdery mildew resistance. Four 6P deletion lines (del16a, del19b, del21 and del27) and two translocation lines (WAT638a and WAT638b), derived from radiation treatment of 4844-12, were used to further assess the 6P powdery mildew resistance locus by powdery mildew resistance assessment, genomic in situ hybridization (GISH), fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and 6P specific sequence-tagged-site (STS) markers. Collectively, the locus harboring the powdery mildew resistance gene was genetically mapped to a 6PL bin (0.27-0.51). The genetic effects of this chromosome segment on resistance to powdery mildew were further confirmed by del16a and del27 BC3F2 lines. Comprehensive evaluation of agronomic traits revealed that the powdery mildew resistance locus of 6PL (0.27-0.51) has potential application value in wheat breeding. A total of 22 resistant genes were annotated and 3 specific gene markers were developed for detecting chromatin of the resistant region based on genome re-sequencing. In summary, this study could broaden the powdery mildew resistance gene pool for wheat genetic improvements.

Abstract
Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) is a basic tool that is widely used in cytogenetic research. The detection efficiency of conventional FISH is limited due to its time-consuming nature. Oligonucleotide (oligo) probes with fluorescent labels have been applied in non-denaturing FISH (ND-FISH) assays, which greatly streamline experimental processes and save costs and time. Agropyron cristatum, which contains one basic genome, "P," is a vital wild relative for wheat improvement. However, oligo probes for detecting P-genome chromosomes based on ND-FISH assays have not been reported. In this study, according to the distribution of transposable elements (TEs) in Triticeae genomes, 94 oligo probes were designed based on three types of A. cristatum sequences. ND-FISH validation showed that 12 single oligo probes generated a stable and obvious hybridization signal on whole P chromosomes in the wheat background. To improve signal intensity, mixed probes (Oligo-pAc) were prepared by using the 12 successful probes and validated in the diploid accession A. cristatum Z1842, a small segmental translocation line and six allopolyploid wild relatives containing the P genome. The signals of Oligo-pAc covered the entire chromosomes of A. cristatum and were more intense than those of single probes. The results indicate that Oligo-pAc can replace conventional genomic in situ hybridization (GISH) probes to identify P chromosomes or segments in non-P-genome backgrounds. Finally, we provide a rapid and efficient method specifically for detecting P chromosomes in wheat backgrounds by combining the Oligo-pAc probe with the Oligo-pSc119.2-1 and Oligo-pTa535-1 probes, which can replace conventional sequential GISH/FISH assays. Altogether, we developed a set of oligo probes based on the ND-FISH assays to identify P-genome chromosomes, which can promote utilization of A. cristatum in wheat improvement programs.

Abstract
Hemp (Cannabis sativa L., 2n = 20) is a valuable crop that is successfully used as a food, technical and medicinal crop. It is a dioecious plant with an XX\XY sex determination system. Some chromosomes of C. sativa have almost the same lengths and centromeric indexes. Cytogenetic markers help to distinguish similar plant chromosomes, including sex chromosomes, which is important for the breeding process. Two repeats (CS-1 and CS-237) were used to develop labeled oligo-probes for rapid and low-cost oligo-FISH. These oligos can be recommended for use as cytological markers to distinguish sex chromosomes (X and Y) and somatic chromosome pairs 3, 6, and 8 by rapid oligo-FISH in a short time.

Abstract
Allohexaploidization and continuous introgression play a key role in the origin and evolution of bread wheat. The genetic bottleneck of bread wheat resulting from limited germplasms involved in the origin and modern breeding may be compensated by gene flow from tetraploid wheat through introgressive hybridization. The inter-ploidy hybridization between hexaploid and tetraploid wheat generates pentaploid hybrids first, which absorbed genetic variations both from hexaploid and tetraploid wheat and have great potential for re-evolution and improvement in bread wheat. Therefore, understanding the effects of the pentaploid hybrid is of apparent significance in our understanding of the historic introgression and in informing breeding. In the current study, two sets of F2 populations of synthetic pentaploid wheat (SPW1 and SPW2) and synthetic hexaploid wheat (SHW1 and SHW2) were created to analyze differences in recombination frequency (RF) of AB genomes and distorted segregation of polymorphic SNP markers through SNP genotyping. Results suggested that (1) the recombination of AB genomes in the SPW populations was about 3- to 4-fold higher than that in the SHW populations, resulting from the significantly (P < 0.01) increased RF between adjacent and linked SNP loci, especially the variations that occurred in a pericentromeric region which would further enrich genetic diversity; (2) the crosses of hexaploid × tetraploid wheat could be an efficient way to produce pentaploid derivatives than the crosses of tetraploid × hexaploid wheat according to the higher germination rate found in the former crosses; (3) the high proportion of distorted segregation loci that skewed in favor of the female parent genotype/allele in the SPW populations might associate with the fitness and survival of the offspring. Based on the presented data, we propose that pentaploid hybrids should increasingly be used in wheat breeding. In addition, the contribution of gene flow from tetraploid wheat to bread wheat mediated by pentaploid introgressive hybridization also was discussed in the re-evolution of bread wheat.

Abstract
It was reported that the chromosome 6R of rye (Secale cereale L.) carries stripe rust resistance gene Yr83, and the region with the candidate resistance gene(s) still needs to be narrowed down. This study confirmed that the chromosome 6RLAr derived from rye AR106BONE contains stripe rust resistance gene(s). A wheat-rye T6BS.6RLAr translocation chromosome, a wheat-rye small-segment translocation T6RLAr-6AS.6AL, and three kinds of deleted T6BS.6RLAr translocations, T6BS.6RLAr-1, T6BS.6RLAr-2, and T6BS.6RLAr-3, were identified. Translocations T6BS.6RLAr, T6BS.6RLAr-2, and T6RLAr-6AS.6AL were highly resistant to stripe rust and T6BS.6RLAr-1 and T6BS.6RLAr-3 were highly susceptible. The molecular markers specific to 6RL determined that the three regions of the 6RLAr arm from 732,999,830 bp to the telomere, from 735,010,030 to 848,010,414 bp, and from 848,011,262 bp to the telomere were deleted from T6BS.6RLAr-1, T6BS.6RLAr-2, and T6BS.6RLAr-3, respectively. T6BS.6RLAr-2 and T6RLAr-6AS.6AL contained the segment that was deleted in T6BS.6RLAr-3. Therefore, it can be concluded that about 37 Mb segment from 848,011,262 bp to the telomere carried stripe rust resistance gene(s), and it was smaller than that with the Yr83 gene. Gene annotation indicated that about 37 Mb region contains 43 potential resistance genes, and 42 of them are nucleotide-binding site and leucine-rich repeat (NBS-LRR)-like resistance protein genes. The results in this study narrowed down the size of the region with candidate stripe rust resistance gene(s) on the 6RL arm, and the T6RLAr-6AS.6AL is a promising small-segment translocation for improvement of wheat cultivars.

FANCM promotes class I interfering crossovers and suppresses class II non-interfering crossovers in wheat meiosis. Nat Commun 2022; 13:3644. [PMID: 35752733 PMCID: PMC9233680 DOI: 10.1038/s41467-022-31438-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2022] [Accepted: 06/17/2022] [Indexed: 11/09/2022] Open
Abstract
FANCM suppresses crossovers in plants by unwinding recombination intermediates. In wheat, crossovers are skewed toward the chromosome ends, thus limiting generation of novel allelic combinations. Here, we observe that FANCM maintains the obligate crossover in tetraploid and hexaploid wheat, thus ensuring that every chromosome pair exhibits at least one crossover, by localizing class I crossover protein HEI10 at pachytene. FANCM also suppresses class II crossovers that increased 2.6-fold in fancm msh5 quadruple mutants. These data are consistent with a role for FANCM in second-end capture of class I designated crossover sites, whilst FANCM is also required to promote formation of non-crossovers. In hexaploid wheat, genetic mapping reveals that crossovers increase by 31% in fancm compared to wild type, indicating that fancm could be an effective tool to accelerate breeding. Crossover rate differences in fancm correlate with wild type crossover distributions, suggesting that chromatin may influence the recombination landscape in similar ways in both wild type and fancm. The FANCM helicase functions in limiting crossovers (COs) by unwinding inter-homolog repair intermediates. Here, the authors generate null mutants of fancm in tetraploid and hexaploid wheat and show that FANCM promotes class I interfering COs and suppresses class II noninterfering COs in wheat meiosis.

Abstract
Fusarium head blight (Fhb), powdery mildew, and stripe rust are major wheat diseases globally. Aegilops geniculata Roth (UgUgMgMg, 2n = 4x = 28), a wild relative of common wheat, is valuable germplasm of disease resistance for wheat improvement and breeding. Here, we report the development and characterization of two substitution accessions with high resistance to powdery mildew, stripe rust and Fhb (W623 and W637) derived from hybrid progenies between Ae. geniculata and hexaploid wheat Chinese Spring (CS). Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), Genomic in situ hybridizations (GISH), and sequential FISH-GISH studies indicated that the two substitution lines possess 40 wheat chromosomes and 2 Ae. geniculata chromosomes. Furthermore, compared that the wheat addition line parent W166, the 2 alien chromosomes from W623 and W637 belong to the 7Mg chromosomes of Ae. geniculata via sequential FISH-GISH and molecular marker analysis. Nullisomic-tetrasomic analysis for homoeologous group-7 of wheat and FISH revealed that the common wheat chromosomes 7A and 7B were replaced in W623 and W637, respectively. Consequently, lines W623, in which wheat chromosomes 7A were replaced by a pair of Ae. geniculata 7Mg chromosomes, and W637, which chromosomes 7B were substituted by chromosomes 7Mg, with resistance to Fhb, powdery mildew, and stripe rust. This study has determined that the chromosome 7Mg from Ae. geniculata exists genes resistant to Fhb and powdery mildew.

Abstract
A new wheat-Thinopyrum ponticum translocation line with excellent powdery mildew resistance was produced, and alien-specific PCR markers and FISH probes were developed by SLAF-seq. Powdery mildew is one of the most threatening diseases in wheat production. Thinopyrum ponticum (Podp.) Barkworth and D. R. Dewey, as a wild relative, has been used for wheat genetic improvement for the better part of a century. In view of the good powdery mildew resistance of Th. ponticum, we have been working to transfer the resistance genes from Th. ponticum to wheat by creating translocation lines. In this study, a new wheat-Th. ponticum translocation line with excellent resistance and agronomic performance was developed and through seedling disease evaluation, gene postulation and diagnostic marker analysis proved to carry a novel Pm gene derived from Th. ponticum. Cytogenetic analysis revealed that a small alien segment was translocated to the terminal of chromosome 1D to form new translocation TTh-1DS·1DL chromosome. The translocation breakpoint was determined to lie in 21.5 Mb region of chromosome 1D by using Wheat660K SNP array analysis. Based on specific-locus amplified fragment sequencing (SLAF-seq) technology, eight molecular markers and one repetitive sequence probe were developed, which were specific for Th. ponticum. Fortunately, the probe could be used in distinguishing six alien chromosome pairs in partial amphiploid Xiaoyan 7430 by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Furthermore, a Thinopyrum-specific oligonucleotide probe was designed depending on the sequence information of the FISH probe. The novel translocation line could be used in wheat disease resistance breeding, and these specific markers and probes will enable wheat breeders to rapidly trace the alien genome with the novel Pm gene(s).

Abstract
Wheat-rye 1RS·1BL translocations from 'Petkus' rye have contributed substantially to wheat production worldwide with their great disease resistance and yield traits. However, the resistance genes on the 1RS chromosomes have completely lost their resistance to newly emerged pathogens. Rye could widen the variation of 1RS as a naturally cross-pollinated related species of wheat. In this study, we developed three new 1RS·1BL translocation lines by crossing rye inbred line BL1, selected from Chinese landrace rye Baili, with wheat cultivar Mianyang11. These three new translocation lines exhibited high resistance to the most virulent and frequently occurring stripe rust pathotypes and showed high resistance in the field, where stripe rust outbreaks have been most severe in China. One new gene for stripe rust resistance, located on 1RS of the new translocation lines, is tentatively named YrRt1054. YrRt1054 confers resistance to Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici pathotypes that are virulent toward Yr9 and YrCn17. This new resistance gene, YrRt1054, is available for wheat improvement programs. The present study indicated that rye cultivars may carry additional untapped variation as potential sources of resistance.

Abstract
Germplasm is the material basis for crop genetic improvement and related basic research. Knowledge of genetic diversity present in wheat is the prerequisite for wheat breeding and improvement. Non-denaturing fluorescence in situ hybridization (ND-FISH) is a powerful tool to distinguish chromosomal polymorphisms and evaluate genetic diversity in wheat. In this study, ND-FISH using Oligo-pSc119.2-1, Oligo-pTa535-1, and Oligo-(GAA)7 as probes were used to analyze the genetic diversity among 60 International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center (CIMMYT) derived wheat lines, and 93 cultivated wheat and landraces from the Chinese wheat core germplasm. A total of 137 polymorphic FISH patterns were obtained, in which 41, 65, and 31 were from A-, B-, and D-genome chromosomes, respectively, indicating polymorphism of B-genome > A-genome > D-genome. In addition, 22 and 51 specific FISH types were observed in the two germplasm resource lines. Twelve types of rearrangements, including seven new translocations, were detected in all 153 wheat lines. Genetic relationships among 153 wheat lines were clustered into six groups. Our research provides cytological information for rational utilization of wheat germplasm resources.

Molecular Cytogenetic Identification of the Wheat–Dasypyrum villosum T3DL·3V#3S Translocation Line with Resistance against Stripe Rust. PLANTS 2022; 11:plants11101329.

Abstract
The annual species Dasypyrum villosum possesses several potentially valuable genes for the improvement of common wheat. Previously, we identified a new stripe rust-resistant line, the Chinese Spring (CS)–D. villosum 3V#3 (3D) substitution line (named CD-3), and mapped its potential rust resistance gene (designated as YrCD-3) on the 3V#3 chromosome originating from D. villosum. The objective of the present study was to further narrow down the YrCD-3 locus to a physical region and develop wheat-3V#3 introgression lines with strong stripe rust resistance. By treating CD-3 seeds with 60Co γ-irradiation, two CS-3V#3 translocation lines, T3V#3S.3DL and T3DS.3V#3L (termed 22-12 and 24-20, respectively), were identified from the M4 generation through a combination of non-denaturing fluorescence in situ hybridization (ND-FISH) and functional molecular markers. Stripe rust resistance tests showed that the line 22-12 exhibited strong stripe rust resistance similarly to CD-3, whereas 24-20 was susceptible to stripe rust similarly to CS, indicating that YrCD-3 is located on the short arm of 3V#3. The line 22-12 can potentially be used for further wheat improvement. Additionally, to trace 3V#3 in the wheat genetic background, we produced 30 3V#3-specific sequence tag (EST) markers, among which, 11 markers could identify 3V#3S. These markers could be valuable in fine-mapping YrCD-3.

Abstract
Elymus nutans is an allopolyploid with a genome constitution of StStYYHH (2n = 6x = 42). Highly frequent intergenomic translocations and chromosomal variations with repeat amplification and deletions in E. nutans have been identified in the previous studies. However, more complicated structural variations such as chromosomal inversions or intra-genomic translocations are still unknown in this species, so does the reason for the origin of the chromosomal variations. Heterozygotes with rearranged chromosomes always present irregular meiosis behaviors, which subsequently cause the secondary chromosome rearrangements. Investigation on the meiosis of heterozygotes, especially on the individual chromosome level, may provide the important clues to identify the more complicated chromosome structural variations in the populations, and clarify the origin of the chromosome variations. In this study, meiotic analysis was conducted on a heterozygote plant of Elymus nutans, which showed high intra- and inter-genome chromosomal variations, by sequential fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and genomic in situ hybridization (GISH), with each chromosome clearly recognized. The results showed chromosomal abnormalities at every meiotic stage and abnormalities in frequency variations between different sub-genomes and different individual chromosomes. The abnormalities were revealed as univalent, fragment, rod, or Y shape bivalent in diakinesis; univalent and rod bivalent in metaphase I; lagged and segregated chromatid, bridge, fragment of the sister chromatid, fragment, bridge accompanied with fragment, and unequal segregated chromosome in anaphase I; bridge and lagged chromatid in ana-telophase II; and micronucleus at uninucleate stage. Generally, the St and H genomes harbor more abnormalities than the Y genome. Moreover, a paracentric inversion in 2St was exclusively determined, and another paracentric inversion in 6Y was tentatively identified. In addition, novel deletions were clearly detected in 3H, 4H, 1Y, and 3Y homologous chromosomes; in particular, de novo pericentric inversion in 3H was repeatedly identified in metaphase I. The study revealed the chromosomal inversions pre-existed in parents or populations, as well as de novo inversions and deletions originated in the meiosis of the heterozygote in E. nutans. Moreover, it indicated wide range of meiosis abnormalities on different stages and different chromosomes, and suggests that secondary rearrangements contribute much to the chromosome variations in E. nutans.

Abstract
The genetic diversity and loci underlying agronomic traits were analyzed by the reads coverage and genome-wide association study based genotyping-by-sequencing in a diverse population consisting of 199 accessions. Triticale (× Triticosecale Wittmack) is an economically important grain forage and energy crop planted worldwide for its high biomass. Little is known about the genetic diversity and loci underlying agronomic traits in triticale. We performed genotyping-by-sequencing of 199 cultivars and mapped reads to the A, B, D, and R genomes for karyotype analysis. These cultivars could mostly be grouped into five types. Some chromosome abnormalities occurred with high frequency, such as 2D (2R) substitution, deletion of the long arm of chromosome 2D or the short arm of 5R, and translocation of the long arms of 7D/7A, the short arms of 6D/6A, or the long arms of 1D/1A. We chose only widely planted hexaploid triticale cultivars (153) for genome-wide association study. These cultivars could be divided into nine distinct groups, and the linkage disequilibrium decay was 25.4 kb in this population. We identified 253 significant marker-trait associations (MTAs) on 20 chromosomes, except 7R. Twenty-one reliable MTAs were identified repeatedly over two environments. We predicted 16 putative candidate genes involved in plant growth and development using the genome sequences of wheat and rye. These results provide a basis for understanding the genetic mechanisms of agronomic traits and will benefit the breeding of improved hexaploid triticale.

[PMID: 35468732 PMCID: PMC9036760 DOI: 10.1186/s12870-022-03598-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/29/2022] [Accepted: 04/15/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The wheat-rye 1BL.1RS translocations have played an important role in common wheat breeding programs. Subtelomeric tandem repeats have been often used to investigate polymorphisms of 1RS arms, but further research about their organizations on the 1RS chromosome is needed. RESULTS 162 1RS arms from a wild rye species (Secale strictum) and six cultivated rye accessions (Secale cereale L.) (81 plants), 102 1BL.1RS and one 1AL.1RS translocations were investigated using oligo probes Oligo-TaiI, Oligo-pSc119.2-1, Oligo-pTa71A-2, Oligo-pSc200 and Oligo-pSc250, which were derived from tandem repeats TaiI, pSc119.2, pTa71, pSc200 and pSc250, respectively. The variations of 1RS arms were revealed by signal intensity of probes Oligo-pSc119.2-1, Oligo-pTa71A-2, Oligo-pSc200 and Oligo-pSc250. Proliferation of rDNA sequences on the 1RS chromosomes was observed. According to the presence of probe signals, 34, 127 and 144 of the 162 1RS arms contained TaiI, pSc200 and pSc250, respectively, and all of them contained pSc119.2 and pTa71. Most of the 1RS arms in rye contained three kinds of subtelomeric tandem repeats, the combination of pSc119.2, pSc200 and pSc250 was most common, and only eight of them contained TaiI, pSc119.2, pSc200 and pSc250. All of the 1RS arms in 1BL.1RS and 1AL.1RS translocations contained pSc119.2, pTa71, pSc200 and pSc250, but the presence of the TaiI family was not observed. CONCLUSION New organizations of subtelomeric tandem repeats on 1RS were found, and they reflected new genetic variations of 1RS arms. These 1RS arms might contain abundant allelic diversity for agricultural traits. The narrow genetic base of 1RS arms in 1BL.1RS and 1AL.1RS translocations currently used in agriculture is seriously restricting their use in wheat breeding programs. This research has found new 1RS sources for the future restructuring of 1BL.1RS translocations. The allelic variations of these 1RS arms should be studied more intensely as they may enrich the genetic diversity of 1BL.1RS translocations.

Development and application of specific FISH probes for karyotyping Psathyrostachys huashanica chromosomes. BMC Genomics 2022; 23:309. [PMID: 35436853 PMCID: PMC9017042 DOI: 10.1186/s12864-022-08516-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/11/2021] [Accepted: 03/24/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Psathyrostachys huashanica Keng has long been used as a genetic resource for improving wheat cultivar because of its genes mediating the resistance to various diseases (stripe rust, leaf rust, take-all, and powdery mildew) as well as its desirable agronomic traits. However, a high-resolution fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) karyotype of P. huashanica remains unavailable. Results To develop chromosome-specific FISH markers for P. huashanica, repetitive sequences, including pSc119.2, pTa535, pTa713, pAs1, (AAC)5, (CTT)12, pSc200, pTa71A-2, and Oligo-44 were used for a FISH analysis. The results indicated that the combination of pSc200, pTa71A-2 and Oligo-44 probes can clearly identify all Ns genomic chromosomes in the two P. huashanica germplasms. The homoeologous relationships between individual P. huashanica chromosomes and common wheat chromosomes were clarified by FISH painting. Marker validation analyses revealed that the combination of pSc200, pTa71A-2, and Oligo-44 for a FISH analysis can distinguish the P. huashanica Ns-genome chromosomes from wheat chromosomes, as well as all chromosomes (except 4Ns) from the chromosomes of diploid wheat relatives carrying St, E, V, I, P and R genomes. Additionally, the probes were applicable for discriminating between the P. huashanica Ns-genome chromosomes in all homologous groups and the corresponding chromosomes in Psathyrostachys juncea and most Leymus species containing the Ns genome. Furthermore, six wheat–P. huashanica chromosome addition lines (i.e., 2Ns, 3Ns, 4Ns, 7Ns chromosomes and chromosomal segments) were characterized using the newly developed FISH markers. Thus, these probes can rapidly and precisely detect P. huashanica alien chromosomes in the wheat background. Conclusions The FISH karyotype established in this study lays a solid foundation for the efficient identification of P. huashanica chromosomes in wheat genetic improvement programs.

Front Cell Dev Biol 2022; 10:875523.

Abstract
Some eukaryotes exhibit dramatic genome size differences between cells of different organs, resulting from the programmed elimination of chromosomes. Aegilops speltoides is an annual diploid species from the Poaceae family, with a maximum number of eight B chromosomes (Bs) in addition to its inherent seven pairs of standard A chromosomes (As). The Bs of this species undergo precise elimination in roots early in embryo development. In areal parts of the plant, the number of Bs is stable. To affect the root restricted process of B chromosome elimination, we employed X-ray mutagenesis, and different types of restructured Bs were identified. Standard Bs were observed in all analyzed shoots of mutagenized plants, while B-A translocations were only observed in 35.7% of F1 plants. In total 40 different B variants inconsistently escaped the elimination process in roots. As a result, mosaicism of B chromosome variants was found in roots. Only a small B chromosome fragment fused to an A chromosome was stably maintained in roots and shoots across F1 to F3 generations. The absence of B-A translocation chromosomes possessing a derived B centromere in root cells implies that the centromere of the B is a key component of the chromosome elimination process.

Abstract
Flanking markers useful for identifying hybrid necrosis alleles were identified by fine mapping Ne1 and Ne2 and the distribution of the two necrosis genes was investigated in Chinese elite wheat varieties. Hybrid necrosis of wheat is caused by the interaction of two dominant complementary genes Ne1 and Ne2 present separately in normal parents and is regarded as a barrier to gene transfer in wheat breeding. However, the necrosis alleles still occur at a high frequency in modern wheat varieties. In this study, we constructed two high-density genetic maps of Ne1 and Ne2 in winter wheat. In these cultivars, Ne1 was found to be located in a span interval of 0.50 centimorgan (cM) on chromosome 5BL delimited by markers Nwu_5B_4137 and Nwu_5B_5114, while Ne2 co-segregated with markers Lseq102 and TC67744 on 2BS. Statistical analysis confirmed that the dosage effect of Ne1 and Ne2 also existed in moderate and severe hybrid necrosis systems, and the symptoms of necrosis can also be affected by the genetic background. Furthermore, we clarified the discrete distribution and proportion of the Ne1 and Ne2 in the 10 China's agro-ecological production zones. We concluded that 26.2% and 33.2% of the 1364 cultivars (lines) were genotyped with Ne1Ne1ne2ne2 and ne1ne1Ne2Ne2, respectively and introduced modern cultivars should directly affect the frequencies of necrosis genes in modern Chinese cultivars (lines), especially that of Ne2. Taking investigations in spring wheat together, we proposed that hybrid necrosis alleles could positively affect breeding owing to their linked excellent genes such as Lr13. Additionally, based on the pedigrees and hybridization tests, we speculated that the Ne1 and Ne2 in winter wheat may directly originate from wild emmer and introduced cultivars or hexaploid triticale, respectively.

Development and identification of four new synthetic hexaploid wheat lines with solid stems. Sci Rep 2022; 12:4898.

Abstract
Stem solidness is an important agronomic trait for increasing the ability of wheat to resist lodging. In this study, four new synthetic hexaploid wheat with solid stems were developed from natural chromosome doubling of F1 hybrids between a solid-stemmed durum wheat (Triticum turgidum ssp. durum, 2n = 4x = 28, AABB) and four Aegilops tauschii (2n = 2x = 14, DD) accessions. The solid expression of the second internode at the base of the stem was stable for two synthetic hexalpoid wheat Syn-SAU-117 and Syn-SAU-119 grown in both the greenhouse and field. The lodging resistance of four synthetic solid-stem wheats is stronger than that of CS, and Syn-SAU-116 has the strongest lodging resistance, followed by Syn-SAU-119. The paraffin sections of the second internode showed that four synthetic wheat lines had large outer diameters, well-developed mechanical tissues, large number of vascular bundles, and similar anatomical characteristics with solid-stemmed durum wheat. The chromosomal composition of four synthetic hexaploid wheat was identified by FISH (fluorescence in situ hybridization) using Oligo-pSc119.2-1 and Oligo-pTa535-1. At adult stage, all four synthetic hexaploid wheat showed high resistance to mixed physiological races of stripe rust pathogen (CYR31, CYR32, CYR33, CYR34). These synthetic hexaploid wheat lines provide new materials for the improvement of common wheat.

Abstract
Wheat pathogens, especially those causing powdery mildew and stripe rust, seriously threaten yield worldwide. Utilizing newly identified disease resistance genes from wheat relatives is an effective strategy to minimize disease damage. In this study, chromosome-specific molecular markers for the 3Sb and 7Sb chromosomes of Aegilops bicornis were developed using PCR-based landmark unique gene primers for screening wheat-A. bicornis progenies. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) was performed to further identify wheat-A. bicornis progenies using oligonucleotides probes Oligo-pSc119.2-1, Oligo-pTa535-1, and Oligo-(GAA)8. After establishing A. bicornis 3Sb and 7Sb chromosome-specific FISH markers, Holdfast (common wheat)-A. bicornis 3Sb addition, 7Sb addition, 3Sb(3A) substitution, 3Sb(3B) substitution, 3Sb(3D) substitution, 7Sb(7A) substitution, and 7Sb(7B) substitution lines were identified by the molecular and cytological markers. Stripe rust and powdery mildew resistance, along with agronomic traits, were investigated to evaluate the breeding potential of these lines. Holdfast and Holdfast-A. bicornis progenies were all highly resistant to stripe rust, indicating that the stripe rust resistance might derive from Holdfast. However, Holdfast-A. bicornis 3Sb addition, 3Sb(3A) substitution, 3Sb(3B) substitution, and 3Sb(3D) substitution lines showed high resistance to powdery mildew while Holdfast was highly susceptible, indicating that chromosome 3Sb of A. bicornis carries previously unknown powdery mildew resistance gene(s). Additionally, the transfer of the 3Sb chromosome from A. bicornis to wheat significantly increased tiller number, but chromosome 7Sb has a negative effect on agronomic traits. Therefore, wheat germplasm containing A. bicornis chromosome 3Sb has potential to contribute to improving powdery mildew resistance and tiller number during wheat breeding.

Abstract
Stripe rust caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici and powdery mildew caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici are devastating diseases of wheat worldwide. Exploration of new disease-resistant genes from cultivated wheat and wild relatives are the most effective means of reducing the amounts of fungicides applied to combat these diseases. Thinopyrum scirpeum (2n = 4x = 28, EEEE) is an important promising reservoir of useful genes, including stripe rust and powdery mildew resistance, and may be useful for increasing wheat disease resistance. Here, we characterize a novel wheat-Th. scirpeum disomic substitution line, K16-730-3, and chromosome-specific markers were developed that can be used to trace the Th. scirpeum chromosome or chromosome segments transferred into wheat. Genomic in situ hybridization and fluorescence in situ hybridization analyses indicated that K16-730-3 is a new 4E (4D) chromosomal substitution line. Evaluation of seedling and adult disease responses revealed that K16-730-3 is resistant to stripe rust and powdery mildew. In addition, no obvious difference in grain yield was observed between K16-730-3 and its wheat parents. Genotyping-by-sequencing analyses indicated that 74 PCR-based markers can accurately trace chromosome 4E, which were linked to the disease resistance genes in the wheat background. Further marker validation analyses revealed that 13 specific markers can distinguish between the E-genome chromosomes of Th. scirpeum and the chromosomes of other wheat-related species. The new substitution line K16-730-3 carrying the stripe rust and powdery mildew resistance genes will be useful as novel germplasm in breeding for disease resistance. The markers developed in this study can be used in marker-assisted selection for increasing disease resistance in wheat.

Abstract
Agropyron cristatum (L.) Gaertn. (2n = 28, PPPP), a relative of wheat, carries desirable genes associated with high yield, disease resistance, and stress resistance, which is an important resource for wheat genetic improvement. The long arm of A. cristatum chromosome 2P carries favorable genes conferring powdery mildew and leaf rust resistance, and two wheat-A. cristatum 2P translocation lines, 2PT3 and 2PT5, with a large segment of 2P chromatin were obtained. In this study, 2PT3 and 2PT5 translocation lines with powdery mildew and leaf rust resistance genes were used to induce translocations of different chromosomal sizes via ionizing radiation. According to cytological characterization, 10 of those plants were new wheat-A. cristatum 2P small-chromosome segment translocation lines with reduced 2P chromatin, and 6 plants represented introgression lines without visible 2P chromosomal fragments. Moreover, four lines were resistant to both powdery mildew and leaf rust, while two lines were resistant only to leaf rust.

Molecular Cytogenetic Characterization of Novel 1RS.1BL Translocation and Complex Chromosome Translocation Lines with Stripe Rust Resistance. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23052731. [PMID: 35269872 PMCID: PMC8910991 DOI: 10.3390/ijms23052731] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/21/2022] [Revised: 02/18/2022] [Accepted: 02/25/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022] Open
Abstract
Rye is the most important source for the genetic improvement of wheat. In this study, two stable wheat-rye primary 1RS.1BL translocation lines, RT855-13 and RT855-14, were selected and identified by acid polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (A-PAGE), co-dominant PCR, and multi-color fluorescence in situ hybridization (MC-FISH) from the progeny of the crossing of the wheat cultivar Mianyang11 and a Chinese rye Weining. When more than two independent, simple reciprocal translocations are involved in a carrier, they are defined as complex chromosome translocations (CCT). The MC-FISH results also indicated that CCT occurred in RT855-13; namely that, besides 1RS.1BL translocation chromosomes, there are other two pairs of balanced reciprocal translocations. It was demonstrated that the interchange between a distal segment of 4B and long arm of 3D occurred in the RT855-13. The novel translocation chromosomes in wheat were recorded as 3DS.4BSDS and 3DL-4BSPS.4BL. Reports about CCT as a genetic resource in plant breeding programs are scarce. Both lines expressed high resistance to Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici, which are prevalent in China and are virulent on Yr9, and the CCT line RT855-13 retained better resistance as adult plants compared with RT855-14 in the field. Both lines, especially the CCT line RT855-13, exhibited better agronomic traits than their wheat parent, Mianyang11, indicating that both translocation lines could potentially be used for wheat improvement. The results also indicated that the position effects of CCT can lead to beneficial variations in agronomic and resistant traits, making them a valuable genetic resource to wheat breeding programs.

Abstract
Leymus mollis (2n = 4x = 28, NsNsXmXm), a wild relative of common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), carries numerous loci which could potentially be used in wheat improvement. In this study, line 17DM48 was isolated from the progeny of a wheat and L. mollis hybrid. This line has 42 chromosomes forming 21 bivalents at meiotic metaphase I. Genomic in situ hybridization (GISH) demonstrated the presence of a pair chromosomes from the Ns genome of L. mollis. This pair substituted for wheat chromosome 2D, as shown by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), DNA marker analysis, and hybridization to wheat 55K SNP array. Therefore, 17DM48 is a wheat-L. mollis 2Ns (2D) disomic substitution line. It shows longer spike and a high level of stripe rust resistance. Using specific-locus amplified fragment sequencing (SLAF-seq), 13 DNA markers were developed to identify and trace chromosome 2Ns of L. mollis in wheat background. This line provides a potential bridge germplasm for genetic improvement of wheat stripe rust resistance.

Abstract
We developed seven oligonucleotide (oligo) pools based on single-copy sequences, targeting chromosomes 1 to 7 of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) and wheat (Triticum aestivum) for chromosomal Oligo-FISH painting methods. The probes were applied to high-throughput karyotyping for the Triticeae tribe of over 350 species including 30 genera such as Triticum, Hordeum, Secale, Aegilops, Thinopyrum, and Dasypyrum, as well as several wheat alien-derived lines. In combination with other nondenaturing FISH (ND-FISH) procedures using tandem-repeat oligos, the newly developed Oligo-FISH painting technique provides an efficient tool for the identification of individual chromosomes with homologous linkage groups to establish standard karyotypes, particularly with any wild Triticeae species having nonsequenced genomes for chromosome evolutionary analysis. © 2022 Wiley Periodicals LLC.

Abstract
Rye (Secale cereale L.), a naturally cross-pollinating relative of wheat, is a tertiary gene donor and of substantial value in wheat improvement. Wheat powdery mildew is caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici (Bgt), which seriously affects yield and quality worldwide. Identifying and transferring new, effective resistance genes against powdery mildew from rye is important for wheat breeding. The current study developed a wheat-rye line YT2 resistant to powdery mildew by crossing, backcrossing, and self-pollination for multiple generations between octoploid triticale 09R2-100 and common wheat cultivar Shixin 616. YT2 was confirmed to be a 6R disomic addition and T1RS⋅1BL translocation line by genomic in situ hybridization (GISH), multicolor fluorescence in situ hybridization (mc-FISH), multicolor-GISH (mc-GISH), and molecular marker analyses. Disease responses to different Bgt isolates and genetic analysis showed that the powdery mildew resistance gene of YT2 was derived from the rye chromosome 6R of 09R2-100, which differed from the previously reported Pm genes from rye including Pm20 on 6RL. Resistance phenotype of different translocation lines and deletion lines derived from YT2 combined with newly developed 6RL-specific markers analysis suggested that the powdery mildew resistance gene of YT2 was localized to the region in chromosome 6RL: 890.09-967.51 Mb and flanked by markers XM189 and X4M19, corresponding to the reference genome of Weining rye. Therefore, YT2 could be used as a promising bridging parent for wheat disease resistance improvement.

FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2022; 13:927728.

Abstract
Aegilops tauschii, the D-genome donor of hexaploid wheat, provides a source of genetic variation that could be used for tetraploid (durum) wheat improvement. In addition to the genes for wheat quality on the D-genome, which differentiate between bread and durum wheats in terms of end-use properties, genes coding for resistances to biotic and abiotic stresses are also present on the D-genome which would be useful in durum wheat. The introgression of Ae. tauschii into durum wheat, however, requires cytogenetic manipulation to induce homoeologous chromosome pairing to promote recombination. For this purpose, the introgression of Ae. tauschii into durum wheat was performed through a bridge cross of the wild species to the Langdon 5D(5B) disomic substitution line that lacks the Ph1 locus present on chromosome 5B, followed by a cross of the F1 to the durum wheat cultivar Om Rabi 5. Subsequent generations were self-fertilized, and these were screened for D-genome introgressions using (i) D-genome-specific Kompetitive Allele-Specific PCR (KASP) markers and (ii) KASP markers polymorphic between the 5D chromosomes of wheat, present in the Langdon 5D(5B) substitution line, and of Ae. tauschii. Homozygous introgression lines were confirmed using genomic and fluorescence in situ hybridization. The results showed that the use of the Langdon 5D(5B) disomic substitution line did not promote D-genome introgression across all linkage groups with only a limited success in the introgression of Ae. tauschii 5D segments into durum wheat.

Abstract
Early maturation is an important objective in wheat breeding programs that could facilitate multiple-cropping systems, decrease disaster- and disease-related losses, ensure stable wheat production, and increase economic benefits. Exploitation of novel germplasm from wild relatives of wheat is an effective means of breeding for early maturity. Psathyrostachys huashanica Keng f. ex P. C. KUO (2n=2x=14, NsNs) is a promising source of useful genes for wheat genetic improvement. In this study, we characterized a novel wheat-P. huashanica line, DT23, derived from distant hybridization between common wheat and P. huashanica. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and sequential genomic in situ hybridization (GISH) analyses indicated that DT23 is a stable wheat-P. huashanica ditelosomic addition line. FISH painting and PCR-based landmark unique gene markers analyses further revealed that DT23 is a wheat-P. huashanica 7Ns ditelosomic addition line. Observation of spike differentiation and the growth period revealed that DT23 exhibited earlier maturation than the wheat parents. This is the first report of new earliness per se (Eps) gene(s) probably associated with a group 7 chromosome of P. huashanica. Based on specific locus-amplified fragment sequencing technology, 45 new specific molecular markers and 19 specific FISH probes were developed for the P. huashanica 7Ns chromosome. Marker validation analyses revealed that two specific markers distinguished the Ns genome chromosomes of P. huashanica and the chromosomes of other wheat-related species. These newly developed FISH probes specifically detected Ns genome chromosomes of P. huashanica in the wheat background. The DT23 line will be useful for breeding early maturing wheat. The specific markers and FISH probes developed in this study can be used to detect and trace P. huashanica chromosomes and chromosomal segments carrying elite genes in diverse materials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Aegilops geniculata Roth is closely related to common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and is a valuable genetic resource for improvement of wheat. RESULTS In this study, the W19513 line was derived from the BC1F10 progeny of a cross between wheat 'Chinese Spring' and Ae. geniculata SY159. Cytological examination showed that W19513 contained 44 chromosomes. Twenty-two bivalents were formed at the first meiotic metaphase I in the pollen mother cellsand the chromosomes were evenly distributed to opposite poles at meiotic anaphase I. Genomic in situ hybridization demonstrated that W19513 carried a pair of alien chromosomes from the M genome. Fluorescence in situ hybridization confirmed detection of variation in chromosomes 4A and 6B. Functional molecular marker analysis using expressed sequence tag-sequence-tagged site and PCR-based landmark unique gene primers revealed that the alien gene belonged to the third homologous group. The marker analysis confirmed that the alien chromosome pair was 3Mg. In addition, to further explore the molecular marker specificity of chromosome 3Mg, based on the specific locus amplified fragment sequencing technique, molecular markers specific for W19513 were developed with efficiencies of up to 47.66%. The W19513 line was inoculated with the physiological race E09 of powdery mildew (Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici) at the seedling stage and showed moderate resistance. Field inoculation with a mixture of the races CYR31, CYR32, CYR33, and CYR34 of the stripe rust fungus (Puccinia striiformis f. sp. triticii) revealed that the line W19513 showed strong resistance. CONCLUSIONS This study provides a foundation for use of the line W19513 in future genetic research and wheat improvement.

New insights into the dispersion history and adaptive evolution of taxon Aegilops tauschii in China. J Genet Genomics 2021; 49:185-194. [PMID: 34838726 DOI: 10.1016/j.jgg.2021.11.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/29/2021] [Revised: 11/06/2021] [Accepted: 11/10/2021] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
Aegilops tauschii, the wild progenitor of wheat D-genome and a valuable germplasm for wheat improvement, has a wide natural distribution from eastern Turkey to China. However, the phylogenetic relationship and dispersion history of Ae. tauschii in China has not been scientifically clarified. In this study, we genotyped 208 accessions (with 104 in China) using ddRAD sequencing and 55K SNP array, and classified the population into six sublineages. Three possible spreading routes or events were identified, resulting in specific distribution patterns, with four sublineages found in Xinjiang, one in Qinghai, two in Shaanxi and one in Henan. We also established the correlation of SNP-based, karyotype-based and spike-morphology-based techniques to demonstrate the internal classification of Ae. tauschii, and developed consensus dataset with 1245 putative accessions by merging data previously published. Our analysis suggested that eight inter-lineage accessions could be assigned to the putative Lineage 3 and these accessions would help to conserve the genetic diversity of the species. By developing the consensus phylogenetic relationships of Ae. tauschii, our work validated the hypothesis on the dispersal history of Ae. tauschii in China, and contributed to the efficient and comprehensive germplasm-mining of the species.

Abstract
Kengyiliahirsuta (Keng, 1959) J. L. Yang, C. Yen et B. R. Baum, 1992, a perennial hexaploidy species, is a wild relative species to wheat with great potential for wheat improvement and domestication. The genome structure and cross-species homoeology of K.hirsuta chromosomes with wheat were assayed using 14 single-gene probes covering all seven homoeologous groups, and four repetitive sequence probes 45S rDNA, 5S rDNA, pAs1, and (AAG)10 by FISH. Each chromosome of K.hirsuta was well characterized by homoeological determination and repeats distribution patterns. The synteny of chromosomes was strongly conserved in the St genome, whereas synteny of the Y and P genomes was more distorted. The collinearity of 1Y, 2Y, 3Y and 7Y might be interrupted in the Y genome. A new 5S rDNA site on 2Y might be translocated from 1Y. The short arm of 3Y might involve translocated segments from 7Y. The 7 Y was identified as involving a pericentric inversion. A reciprocal translocation between 2P and 4P, and tentative structural aberrations in the subtelomeric region of 1PL and 4PL, were observed in the P genome. Chromosome polymorphisms, which were mostly characterized by repeats amplification and deletion, varied between chromosomes, genomes, and different populations. However, two translocations involving a P genome segmental in 3YL and a non-Robertsonial reciprocal translocation between 4Y and 3P were identified in two independent populations. Moreover, the proportion of heterozygous karyotypes reached almost 35% in all materials, and almost 80% in the specific population. These results provide new insights into the genome organization of K.hirsuta and will facilitate genome dissection and germplasm utilization of this species.

Molecular Karyotyping on Populus simonii × P. nigra and the Derived Doubled Haploid. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms222111424.

Abstract
The molecular karyotype could represent the basic genetic make-up in a cell nucleus of an organism or species. A doubled haploid (DH) is a genotype formed from the chromosome doubling of haploid cells. In the present study, molecular karyotype analysis of the poplar hybrid Populus simonii × P. nigra (P. xiaohei) and the derived doubled haploids was carried out with labeled telomeres, rDNA, and two newly repetitive sequences as probes by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). The tandem repeats, pPC349_XHY and pPD284_XHY, with high-sequence homology were used, and the results showed that they presented the colocalized distribution signal in chromosomes. For P. xiaohei, pPD284_XHY produced hybridizations in chromosomes 1, 5, 8, and 9 in the hybrid. The combination of pPD284_XHY, 45S rDNA, and 5S rDNA distinctly distinguished six pairs of chromosomes, and the three pairs of chromosomes showed a significant difference in the hybridization between homologous chromosomes. The repeat probes used produced similar FISH hybridizations in the DH; nevertheless, pPD284_XHY generated an additional hybridization site in the telomere region of chromosome 14. Moreover, two pairs of chromosomes showed differential hybridization distributions between homologous chromosomes. Comparisons of the distinguished chromosomes between hybrid and DH poplar showed that three pairs of chromosomes in the DH presented hybridization patterns that varied from those of the hybrid. The No. 8 chromosome in DH and one of the homologous chromosomes in P. xiaohei shared highly similar FISH patterns, which suggested the possibility of intact or mostly partial transfer of the chromosome between the hybrid and DH. Our study will contribute to understanding the genetic mechanism of chromosomal variation in P. xiaohei and derived DH plants.

Molecular Cytogenetic Analysis of the Introgression between Agropyron cristatum P Genome and Wheat Genome. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms222011208.

Abstract
Agropyron cristatum (2n = 4x = 28, PPPP) is an important wild relative of common wheat (Triticum aestivum L., 2n = 6x = 42). A previous report showed that the wheat-A. cristatum 6P translocation line WAT655 carrying A. cristatum 6PS (0.81-1.00) exhibited high resistance to prevalent physiological races of stripe rust (CYR32 and CYR33). In this study, three disease resistance-related transcripts, which were mapped to A. cristatum 6PS (0.81-1.00) through the analysis of specific molecular markers, were acquired from among A. cristatum full-length transcripts. The BC5F2 and BC5F2:3 genetic populations of the translocation line WAT655 were analyzed by using three disease resistance-related gene markers, A. cristatum P genome-specific markers, and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). The results revealed that the introgression between A. cristatum P genome and wheat genome was observed in progenies of the genetic populations of the translocation line WAT655 and the physical positions of the three genes were considerably adjacent on A. cristatum 6PS (0.81-1.00) according to the FISH results. Additionally, kompetitive allele-specific PCR (KASP) markers of the three genes were developed to detect and acquire 24 breeding lines selected from the progenies of the distant hybridization of wheat and A. cristatum, which showed resistance to physiological races of stripe rust (CYR32 and CYR33) and other desirable agronomic traits according to the field investigation. In conclusion, this study not only provides new insights into the introgression between A. cristatum P genome and wheat genome but also provides the desirable germplasms for breeding practice.

Abstract
Agropyron cristatum (L.) Gaertn. (2n = 4x = 28, PPPP), one of the most important wild relatives of wheat, harbors many desirable genes for wheat genetic improvement. Development of wheat-A. cristatum translocation lines with superior agronomic traits facilitates wheat genetic improvement. In this study, 5106-DS was identified to be a wheat-A. cristatum 6P (6D) disomic substitution line using cytogenetic identification and molecular markers analysis, which displayed higher thousand-grain weight than its wheat parent Triticum aestivum cv. Fukuhokomugi (2n = 6x = 42, AABBDD). Analysis of its backcross populations indicated that there might be genes conferring increased grain weight and width on the chromosome 6P of 5106-DS. In the backcross population, we found three plants as Robertsonian translocation lines, created by chromosome centric breakage-fusion. Among them, there are one T6DS·6PL and two T6PS·6DL Robertsonian translocation lines. Additionally, the centromeres of these three translocation lines were determined to be fused centromeres of 6D and 6P using the probes pAcCR1 and pCCS1. The development of Robertsonian translocation lines would promote the utilization of A. cristatum chromosome 6P in wheat improvement.

[PMID: 37309315 PMCID: PMC10236053 DOI: 10.1007/s11032-021-01253-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/10/2021] [Accepted: 09/16/2021] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
Synthetic hexaploid wheat offers breeders ready access to potentially novel genetic variation in wild ancestral species. In this study, we crossed MY3478 (2n = 4x = 28, AABB) as the maternal parent with the stripe rust-resistant SY41 (2n = 2x = 14, DD) as the paternal parent to construct the new hexaploid wheat line NA0928 through natural allopolyploidization. Agronomic traits and the cytology of the S8-S9 generations of NA0928 were analyzed. Abundant variation in agronomic traits was observed among each strain of NA0928 in the S8 generation. Agronomic traits were superior in strains resistant to stripe rust compared with those of highly susceptible strains. The rank order of the coefficients of variation were tiller number (55.3%) > spike length (15.3%) > number of spikelets (13.9%) > plant height (8.7). Number of tillers and spike length are important traits in wheat breeding to improve yield. Cytological observation and fluorescence in situ hybridization showed that the chromosome number and configuration showed rich variation among NA0928 strains in the S9 generation. Chromosome number ranged from 36 to 44. Variation in chromosome karyotype was detected in the A and B subgenomes. Meiotic chromosome behavior in pollen mother cells and multicolor genomic in situ hybridization revealed that two new synthetic hexaploid wheat strains showed genetic stability; one strain was resistant to stripe rust and developed multiple tillers, and the other strain was susceptible to stripe rust, but both showed improved thousand-kernel weight (TKW) weight and produced multiple tillers. The two strains will be valuable germplasm resources for use in wheat breeding.

Abstract
Oligonucleotide (oligo)-fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) has rapidly becoming the new generation of FISH technique in plant molecular cytogenetics research. Genome-scale identification of single-copy oligos is the foundation of successful oligo-FISH experiments. Here, we introduce Chorus2, a software that is developed specifically for oligo selection. We demonstrate that Chorus2 is highly effective to remove all repetitive elements in selection of single-copy oligos, which is critical for the development of successful FISH probes. Chorus2 is more effective than Chorus, the original version of the pipeline, and OligoMiner for repeat removal. Chorus2 allows to select oligos that are conserved among related species, which extends the usage of oligo-FISH probes among phylogenetically related plant species. We also implemented a new function in Chorus2 that allows development of FISH probes from plant species without an assembled genome. We anticipate that Chorus2 can be used in plants as well as in mammalian and other non-plant species. Chorus2 will broadly facilitate the design of FISH probes for various types of application in molecular cytogenetics research.

Abstract
Seed storage proteins (SSPs) are determinants of wheat end-product quality. SSP synthesis is mainly regulated at the transcriptional level. Few transcriptional regulators of SSP synthesis have been identified in wheat and this study aims to identify novel SSP gene regulators. Here, the R2R3 MYB transcription factor TuODORANT1 from Triticum urartu was found to be preferentially expressed in the developing endosperm during grain filling. In common wheat (Triticum aestivum) overexpressing TuODORANT1, the transcription levels of all the SSP genes tested by RNA-Seq analysis were reduced by 49.71% throughout grain filling, which contributed to 13.38%-35.60% declines in the total SSP levels of mature grains. In in vitro assays, TuODORANT1 inhibited both the promoter activities and the transcription of SSP genes by 1- to 13-fold. The electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) and ChIP-qPCR analysis demonstrated that TuODORANT1 bound to the cis-elements 5'-T/CAACCA-3' and 5'-T/CAACT/AG-3' in SSP gene promoters both in vitro and in vivo. Similarly, the homolog TaODORANT1 in common wheat hindered both the promoter activities and the transcription of SSP genes by 1- to 112-fold in vitro. Knockdown of TaODORANT1 in common wheat led to 14.73%-232.78% increases in the transcription of the tested SSP genes, which contributed to 11.43%-19.35% elevation in the total SSP levels. Our data show that both TuODORANT1 and TaODORANT1 are repressors of SSP synthesis.

Abstract
A novel recessive gene YrZ15-1370 derived from Triticum boeoticum confers adult-plant resistance to wheat stripe rust. Stripe rust, caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst), is one of the most damaging diseases of wheat globally and resistance is the effectively control strategy. Triticum boeoticum Boiss (T. monococcum L. ssp. aegilopoides, 2n = 2x = 14, AbAb) accession G52 confers a high level of adult-plant resistance against a mixture of the Chinese prevalent Pst races. To transfer the resistance to common wheat, a cross was made between G52 and susceptible common wheat genotype Crocus. A highly resistant wheat-T. boeoticum introgression line Z15-1370 (F5 generation) with 42 chromosomes was selected cytologically and by testing with Pst races. F1, F2, and F2:3 generations of the cross between Z15-1370 and stripe rust susceptible common wheat Mingxian169 were developed. Genetic analysis revealed that the resistance in Z15-1370 was controlled by a single recessive gene, tentatively designated YrZ15-1370. Using the bulked segregant RNA-Seq (BSR-Seq) analysis, YrZ15-1370 was mapped to chromosome 6AL and flanked by markers KASP1370-3 and KASP-1370-5 within a 4.3 cM genetic interval corresponding to 1.8 Mb physical region in the Chinese Spring genome, in which a number of disease resistance-related genes were annotated. YrZ15-1370 differed from previously Yr genes identified on chromosome 6A based on its position and/or origin. The YrZ15-1370 would be a valuable resource for wheat resistance improvement and the flanking markers developed here could be useful tools for marker-assisted selection (MAS) in breeding and further cloning the gene.
