Abstract
Aegilops tauschii is one of the malignant weeds that affect wheat production and is also the wild species ancestor of the D genome of hexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum, AABBDD). It contains many disease resistance genes that have been lost in the long-term evolution of wheat and is an important genetic resource for the mining and utilization of wheat disease resistance genes. In recent years, the genome sequence of Aegilops tauschii has been preliminarily completed, which has laid a good foundation for the further exploration of wheat disease resistance genes in Aegilops tauschii. There are many studies on disease resistance genes in Aegilops tauschii; in order to provide better help for the disease resistance breeding of wheat, this paper analyzes and reviews the relationship between Aegilops tauschii and wheat, the research progress of Aegilops tauschii, the discovery of disease resistance genes from Aegilops tauschii, and the application of disease resistance genes from Aegilops tauschii to modern wheat breeding, providing a reference for the further exploration and utilization of Aegilops tauschii in wheat disease resistance breeding.

Abstract
Adult plant resistance (APR) to wheat stem rust has been one of the approaches for resistance breeding since the evolution of the Ug99 race group and other races. This study was conducted to dissect and understand the genetic basis of APR to stem rust in spring wheat line 'Copio'. A total of 176 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) from the cross of susceptible parent 'Apav' with Copio were phenotyped for stem rust resistance in six environments. Composite interval mapping using 762 genotyping-by-sequencing markers identified 16 genomic regions conferring stem rust resistance. Assays with gene-linked molecular markers revealed that Copio carried known APR genes Sr2 and Lr46/Yr29/Sr58 in addition to the 2NS/2AS translocation that harbors race-specific genes Sr38, Lr37, and Yr17. Three quantitative trait loci (QTLs) were mapped on chromosomes 2B, two QTLs on chromosomes 3A, 3B, and 6A each, and one QTL on each of chromosomes 2A, 1B, 2D, 4B, 5D, 6D, and 7A. The QTL QSr.umn.5D is potentially a new resistance gene and contributed to quantitative resistance in Copio. The RILs with allelic combinations of Sr2, Sr38, and Sr58 had 27 to 39% less stem rust coefficient of infection in all field environments compared with RILs with none of these genes, and this gene combination was most effective in the U.S. environments. We conclude that Copio carries several genes that provide both race-specific and non-race-specific resistance to diverse races of stem rust fungus and can be used by breeding programs in pyramiding other effective genes to develop durable resistance in wheat.
