Abstract
Domestication syndrome, selection pressure, and modern plant breeding programs have reduced the genetic diversity of the wheat germplasm. For the genetic gains of breeding programs to be sustainable, plant breeders require a diverse gene pool to select genes for resistance to biotic stress factors, tolerance to abiotic stress factors, and improved quality and yield components. Thus, old landraces, subspecies and wild ancestors are rich sources of genetic diversity that have not yet been fully exploited, and it is possible to utilize this diversity. Compared with durum wheat, tetraploid wheat subspecies have retained much greater genetic diversity despite genetic drift and various environmental influences, and the identification and utilization of this diversity can make a greater contribution to the genetic enrichment of wheat. In addition, using the pre-breeding method, the valuable left-behind alleles in the wheat gene pool can be re-introduced through hybridization and introgressive gene flow to create a sustainable opportunity for the genetic gain of wheat. This review provides some insights about the potential of tetraploid wheats in plant breeding and the genetic gains made by them in plant breeding across past decades, and gathers the known functional information on genes/QTLs, metabolites, traits and their direct involvement in wheat resistance/tolerance to biotic/abiotic stresses.

Abstract
Powdery mildew, caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici (Bgt), is a serious threat to wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) production. Narrow genetic basis of common wheat boosted the demand for diversified donors against powdery mildew. Aegilops tauschii Coss (2n = 2x = DD) and emmer wheat (2n = 4x = AABB), as the ancestor species of common wheat, are important gene donors for genetic improvement of common wheat. In this study, a total of 71 Ae. tauschii and 161 emmer wheat accessions were first evaluated for their powdery mildew resistance using the Bgt isolate E09. Thirty-three Ae. tauschii (46.5%) and 108 emmer wheat accessions (67.1%) were resistant. Then, all these accessions were tested by the diagnostic markers for 21 known Pm genes. The results showed that Pm2 alleles were detected in all the 71 Ae. tauschii and only Pm4 alleles were detected in 20 of 161 emmer wheat accessions. After haplotype analysis, we identified four Pm4 alleles (Pm4a, Pm4b, Pm4d, and Pm4f) in the emmer wheat accessions and three Pm2 alleles (Pm2d, Pm2e, and Pm2g) in the Ae. tauschii. Further resistance spectrum analysis indicated that these resistance accessions displayed different resistance reactions to different Bgt isolates, implying they may have other Pm genes apart from Pm2 and/or Pm4 alleles. Notably, a new Pm2 allele, Pm2S, was identified in Ae. tauschii, which contained a 64-bp deletion in the first exon and formed a new termination site at the 513th triplet of the shifted reading frame compared with reported Pm2 alleles. The phylogenetic tree of Pm2S showed that the kinship of Pm2S was close to Pm2h. To efficiently and accurately detect Pm2S and distinguish with other Pm2 alleles in Ae. tauschii background, a diagnostic marker, YTU-QS-3, was developed, and its effectiveness was verified. This study provided valuable Pm alleles and enriched the genetic diversity of the powdery mildew resistance in wheat improvement.

Bulked segregant RNA-seq reveals complex resistance expression profile to powdery mildew in wild emmer wheat W762. FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2024; 15:1387427.

Abstract
Powdery mildew, caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici (Bgt), is one of the most destructive fungal diseases threatening global wheat production. Exploring powdery mildew resistance (Pm) gene(s) and dissecting the molecular mechanism of the host resistance are critical to effectively and reasonably control this disease. Durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. var. durumDesf.) is an important gene donor for wheat improvement against powdery mildew. In this study, a resistant durum wheat accession W762 was used to investigate its potential resistance component(s) and profile its expression pattern in responding to Bgt invasion using bulked segregant RNA-Seq (BSR-Seq) and further qRT-PCR verification. Genetic analysis showed that the powdery mildew resistance in W762 did not meet monogenic inheritance and complex genetic model might exist within the population of W762 × Langdon (susceptible durum wheat). After BSR-Seq, 6,196 consistently different single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were called between resistant and susceptible parents and bulks, and among them, 763 SNPs were assigned to the chromosome arm 7B. Subsequently, 3,653 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between resistant and susceptible parents and bulks were annotated and analyzed by Gene Ontology (GO), Cluster of Orthologous Groups (COG), and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment. The potential regulated genes were selected and analyzed their temporal expression patterns following Bgt inoculation. As a result, nine disease-related genes showed distinctive expression profile after Bgt invasion and might serve as potential targets to regulate the resistance against powdery mildew in W762. Our study could lay a foundation for analysis of the molecular mechanism and also provide potential targets for the improvement of durable resistance against powdery mildew.

Abstract
Wheat powdery mildew, caused by the biotrophic fungus Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici (Bgt), is one of the most devastating diseases affecting wheat throughout the world. Breeding and growing resistant wheat cultivars is one of the most economic and effective methods to control the disease, and as such, identifying and mapping the new and effective resistance genes is critical. Baidatou, a Chinese wheat landrace, shows excellent field resistance to powdery mildew. To identify the resistance gene(s) in Baidatou, 170 F7:8 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) derived from the cross Mingxian 169/Baidatou were evaluated for powdery mildew response at the adult-plant stage in the experimental fields in Yangling (YL) of Shaanxi Province and Tianshui (TS) in Gansu Province in 2019, 2020, and 2021. The relative area under disease progress curve (rAUDPC) of Mingxian 169/Baidatou F7:8 RILs indicated that the resistance of Baidatou to powdery mildew was controlled by quantitative trait loci (QTLs). Based on bulk segregation analysis combined with the 660K single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array and genotyping by target sequencing (16K SNP) of the entire RIL population, two QTLs, QPmbdt.nwafu-2AS and QPmbdt.nwafu-3AS, were identified, and these accounted for up to 44.5% of the phenotypic variation. One of the QTLs was located on the 3.32 cM genetic interval on wheat chromosome 2AS between the kompetitive allele-specific PCR markers AX-111012288 and AX_174233809, and another was located on the 9.6 cM genetic interval on chromosome 3AS between the SNP markers 3A_684044820 and 3A_686681822. These markers could be useful for successful breeding of powdery mildew resistance in wheat.

Abstract
Powdery mildew is one of the most severe diseases affecting wheat yield and quality and is caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici (Bgt). Host resistance is the preferred strategy to prevent this disease. However, the narrow genetic basis of common wheat has increased the demand for diversified germplasm resources against powdery mildew. Wheat relatives, especially the secondary gene pool of common wheat, are important gene donors in the genetic improvement of common wheat because of its abundant genetic variation and close kinship with wheat. In this study, a series of 137 wheat relatives, including 53 Triticum monococcum L. (2n = 2x = 14, AA), 6 T. urartu Thumanjan ex Gandilyan (2n = 2x = 14, AA), 9 T. timopheevii Zhuk. (2n = 4x = 28, AAGG), 66 T. aestivum subsp. spelta (2n = 6x = 42, AABBDD), and 3 Aegilops speltoides (2n = 2x = 14, SS) were systematically evaluated for their powdery mildew resistance and composition of Pm genes. Out of 137 (60.58%) accessions, 83 were resistant to Bgt isolate E09 at the seedling stage, and 116 of 137 (84.67%) wheat relatives were resistant to the mixture of Bgt isolates at the adult stage. This indicates that these accessions show a high level of resistance to powdery mildew. Some 31 markers for 23 known Pm genes were used to test these 137 accessions, and, in the results, only Pm2, Pm4, Pm6, Pm58, and Pm68 were detected. Among them, three Pm4 alleles (Pm4a, Pm4b, and Pm4f) were identified in 4 T. subsp. spelta accessions. q-RT PCR further confirmed that Pm4 alleles played a role in disease resistance in these four accessions. The phylogenetic tree showed that the kinship of Pm4 was close to Pm24 and Sr62. This study not only provides reference information and valuable germplasm resources for breeding new wheat varieties with disease resistance but also lays a foundation for enriching the genetic basis of wheat resistance to powdery mildew.

Abstract
Powdery mildew, caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici (Bgt), is a destructive disease worldwide. Host resistance is the preferred method for limiting the disease epidemic, protecting the environment, and minimizing economic losses. In the present study, the reactions to powdery mildew for a collection of 600 wheat cultivars and breeding lines from different wheat-growing regions were tested using the Bgt isolate E09. Next, 116 resistant genotypes were identified and then crossed with susceptible wheat cultivars/lines to produce segregating populations for genetic analysis. Among them, 87, 19, and 10 genotypes displayed single, dual, and multiple genic inheritance, respectively. To identify the Pm gene(s) in those resistant genotypes, 16 molecular markers for 13 documented Pm genes were used to test the resistant and susceptible parents and their segregating populations. Of the 87 wheat genotypes that fitted the monogenic inheritance, 75 carried the Pm2a allele. Three, two, one, and two genotypes carried Pm21, Pm6, Pm4, and the recessive genes pm6 and pm42, respectively. Four genotypes did not carry any of the tested genes, suggesting that they might have other uncharacterized or new genes. The other 29 wheat cultivars/lines carried two or more of the tested Pm genes and/or other untested genes, including Pm2, Pm5, Pm6, and/or pm42. It was obvious that Pm2 was widely used in wheat production, whereas Pm1, Pm24, Pm33, Pm34, Pm35, Pm45, and Pm47 were not detected in any of these resistant wheat genotypes. This study clarified the genetic basis of the powdery mildew resistance of these wheat cultivars/lines to provide information for their rational utilization in different wheat-growing regions. Moreover, some wheat genotypes which may have novel Pm gene(s) were mined to enrich the diversity of resistance source.

PLANTS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 12:3864. [PMID: 38005757 PMCID: PMC10675159 DOI: 10.3390/plants12223864] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2023] [Revised: 10/24/2023] [Accepted: 10/26/2023] [Indexed: 11/26/2023]
Abstract
Powdery mildew (PM), caused by the fungal pathogen Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici (Bgt), significantly threatens global bread wheat production. Although the use of resistant cultivars is an effective strategy for managing PM, currently available wheat cultivars lack sufficient levels of resistance. To tackle this challenge, we conducted a comprehensive genome-wide association study (GWAS) using a diverse panel of 286 bread wheat genotypes. Over three consecutive years (2020-2021, 2021-2022, and 2022-2023), these genotypes were extensively evaluated for PM severity under field conditions following inoculation with virulent Bgt isolates. The panel was previously genotyped using the Illumina 90K Infinium iSelect assay to obtain genome-wide single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) marker coverage. By applying FarmCPU, a multilocus mixed model, we identified a total of 113 marker-trait associations (MTAs) located on chromosomes 1A, 1B, 2B, 3A, 3B, 4A, 4B, 5A, 5B, 6B, 7A, and 7B at a significance level of p ≤ 0.001. Notably, four novel MTAs on chromosome 6B were consistently detected in 2020-2021 and 2021-2022. Furthermore, within the confidence intervals of the identified SNPs, we identified 96 candidate genes belonging to different proteins including 12 disease resistance/host-pathogen interaction-related protein families. Among these, protein kinases, leucine-rich repeats, and zinc finger proteins were of particular interest due to their potential roles in PM resistance. These identified loci can serve as targets for breeding programs aimed at developing disease-resistant wheat cultivars.

Abstract
In a large-scale region, governance for connectivity in an ecological system often conflicts with management boundaries, causing inefficiencies. Collaboration among management organizations in different areas can help overcome this problem. However, few studies quantified the collaborations' practical relationship with connectivity, considering that some potentially connected paths are easy to neglect by managers. In this paper, collaborations among government agencies in project application process were analyzed, and a multilevel social-ecological network analysis (SENA) approach was developed to identify the collaboration's effect on genetically connected coastal areas. The network framework and methods were shown in a case of coastal saltmarsh conservation and development in the Yellow River Delta, China. Collaboration patterns in conservation and development networks were analyzed and compared among local, subregional, and regional government agencies working in genetically connected coastal areas. Project information flow, reflecting communication frequency and decision-making chances among government agencies was quantified and correlated with ecological connectivity to inform governance effects. Results showed areas with the potential to realize social-ecological alignment, where collaborative networks were measured by network density (percentage of connected network edges). The current reveals that development has more significant potential than conservation at most levels to overcome the misalignment of the social-ecological system, also known as scale mismatch. Empirical evidence also showed a correlation between communication capacity in development networks and improved ecological conditions. The multilevel SENA advanced in this paper can be used for natural resource management when connectivity plays a major role.

Abstract
Wheat (Triticum aestivum) is a staple food for about 40% of the world's population. As the global population has grown and living standards improved, high yield and improved nutritional quality have become the main targets for wheat breeding. However, wheat production has been compromised by global warming through the more frequent occurrence of extreme temperature events, which have increased water scarcity, aggravated soil salinization, caused plants to be more vulnerable to diseases, and directly reduced plant fertility and suppressed yield. One promising option to address these challenges is the genetic improvement of wheat for enhanced resistance to environmental stress. Several decades of progress in genomics and genetic engineering has tremendously advanced our understanding of the molecular and genetic mechanisms underlying abiotic and biotic stress responses in wheat. These advances have heralded what might be considered a "golden age" of functional genomics for the genetic improvement of wheat. Here, we summarize the current knowledge on the molecular and genetic basis of wheat resistance to abiotic and biotic stresses, including the QTLs/genes involved, their functional and regulatory mechanisms, and strategies for genetic modification of wheat for improved stress resistance. In addition, we also provide perspectives on some key challenges that need to be addressed.

Abstract
Powdery mildew caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici is a threat to wheat production in China. Mapping quantitative trait loci (QTL) for resistance to powdery mildew and developing breeder-friendly markers are important initial steps in breeding resistant cultivars. An all-stage resistance gene and several QTL were identified using a population of 254 recombinant inbred lines developed from a Jingdong 8/Aikang 58 cross. The population was evaluated for powdery mildew resistance across six field environments over three consecutive growing seasons utilizing two different mixtures of B. graminis f. sp. tritici isolates, named #Bgt-HB and #Bgt-BJ. Using genotypic data obtained from the Wheat TraitBreed 50K single-nucleotide polymorphism array, seven stable QTL were identified on chromosome arms 1DL, 2AL, 2DS, 4DL, 5AL, 6BL.1, and 6BL.2. The QTL on 2AL conferred all-stage resistance to B. graminis f. sp. tritici race E20 in greenhouse tests and explained up to 52% of the phenotypic variance in field trials but was resistant only against #Bgt-HB. The gene involved in this QTL was predicted to be Pm4a based on genome location and gene sequence. QPmja.caas-1DL, QPmja.caas-4DL, and QPmja.caas-6BL.1 were identified as potentially new QTL for powdery mildew resistance. QPmja.caas-2DS and QPmja.caas-6BL.1 were effective against both B. graminis f. sp. tritici mixtures, indicating their probable broad-spectrum resistance. A Kompetitive allele-specific PCR marker closely linked to QPmja.caas-2DS was developed and validated in a panel of 286 wheat cultivars. Because both Jingdong 8 and Aikang 58 have been leading cultivars and breeding parents, the QTL and marker reported represent valuable resources for wheat researchers and breeders.

Abstract
KEY MESSAGE Two recessive powdery mildew resistance loci pmAeCIae8_2DS and pmAeCIae8_7DS from Aegilops tauschii were mapped and two synthesized hexaploid wheat lines were developed by distant hybridization. Wheat powdery mildew (Pm), one of the worldwide destructive fungal diseases, causes significant yield loss up to 30%. The identification of new Pm resistance genes will enrich the genetic diversity of wheat breeding for Pm resistance. Aegilops tauschii is the ancestor donor of sub-genome D of hexaploid wheat. It provides beneficial genes that can be easily transferred into wheat by producing synthetic hexaploid wheat followed by genetic recombination. We assessed the Pm resistance level of 35 Ae. tauschii accessions from different origins. Accession CIae8 exhibited high Pm resistance. Inheritance analysis and gene mapping were performed using F2 and F2:3 populations derived from the cross between CIae8 and a Pm susceptible accession PI574467. The Pm resistance of CIae8 was controlled by two independent recessive genes. Bulked segregate analysis using a 55 K SNP array revealed the SNPs were mainly enriched into genome regions, i.e. 2DS (13.5-20 Mb) and 7DS (4.0-15.5 Mb). The Pm resistance loci were named as pmAeCIae8_2DS and pmAeCIae8_7DS, respectively. By recombinant screening, we narrowed the pmAeCIae8_2DS into a 370-kb interval flanked by markers CINAU-AE7800 (14.89 Mb) and CINAU-AE20 (15.26 Mb), and narrowed the pmAeCIae8_7DS into a 260-kb interval flanked by markers CINAU-AE58 (4.72 Mb) and CINAU-AE25 (4.98 Mb). The molecular markers closely linked with the resistance loci were developed, and two synthesized hexaploid wheat (SHW) lines were produced. These laid the foundation for cloning of the two resistance loci and for transferring the resistance into common wheat.

Abstract
Powdery mildew, caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici, is a devastating disease that seriously threatens wheat yield and quality. To control this disease, host resistance is the preferred measure. However, wheat breeding is a complex process with elusive exchange and recombination of the traits from their parents. Increased resistance often leads to a decline in other key traits, such as yield and quality. Developing breakthrough germplasms with harmonious powdery mildew resistance and other key breeding traits is attractive in wheat breeding. In this study, we developed an ideal wheat breeding line AL46 that pyramided its hexaploid triticale parent-derived desirable yield traits and its wheat parent-derived powdery mildew resistance gene Pm2. Sequential genomic in situ hybridization (GISH), multicolor GISH, multicolor fluorescence in situ hybridization, and molecular marker analyses revealed that AL46 was a wheat-rye T1RS·1BL translocation line. Genetic analysis combined with function marker detection and sequence alignment were used to confirm that AL46 carried the Pm2 gene. Then, we evaluated the powdery mildew resistance and comprehensive traits of AL46, and just as we designed, AL46 showed harmonious powdery mildew resistance with some key breeding traits. This study not only developed an ideal wheat germplasm resource but also provided a successful example for pyramiding breeding, which could be a promising direction for wheat improvement in the future.

Resistance to Powdery Mildew Is Conferred by Different Genetic Loci at the Adult-Plant and Seedling Stages in Winter Wheat Line Tianmin 668. PLANT DISEASE 2023; 107:2133-2143.

Abstract
Winter wheat line Tianmin 668 was crossed with susceptible cultivar Jingshuang 16 to develop 216 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) for dissecting its adult-plant resistance (APR) and all-stage resistance (ASR) against powdery mildew. The RIL population was genotyped on a 16K genotyping by target sequencing single-nucleotide polymorphism array and phenotyped in six field trials and in the greenhouse. Three loci-QPmtj.caas-2BL, QPmtj.caas-2AS, and QPmtj.caas-5AL-conferring APR to powdery mildew were detected on chromosomes 2BL, 2AS, and 5AL, respectively, of Tianmin 668. The effect of resistance to powdery mildew for QPmtj.caas-2BL was greater than that of the other two loci. A Kompetitive allele-specific PCR marker specific for QPmtj.caas-2BL was developed and verified on 402 wheat cultivars or breeding lines. Results of virulence and avirulence patterns to 17 Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici isolates, bulked segregant analysis-RNA-sequencing, and a genetic linkage mapping identified a resistance allele at locus Pm4 in Tianmin 668 based on the seedling phenotypes of the RIL population. The PCR-based DNA sequence alignment and cosegregation of the functional marker with the phenotypes of the RIL population demonstrated that Pm4d was responsible for the ASR to isolate Bgt1 in Tianmin 668. The dissection of genetic loci for APR and ASR may facilitate the application of Tianmin 668 in developing powdery mildew-resistant wheat cultivars.

Abstract
Wheat powdery mildew (PM) causes significant yield losses worldwide. None of the Egyptian wheat cultivars was detected to be highly resistant to such a severe disease. Therefore, a diverse spring wheat panel was evaluated for PM seedling resistance using different Bgt conidiospores collected from Egyptian fields in two growing seasons. The evaluation was done in two separate experiments. Highly significant differences were found between the two experiments suggesting the presence of different isolates populations. Highly significant differences were found among the tested genotypes confirming the ability to improve PM resistance using the recent panel. Genome-wide association study (GWAS) was done for each experiment separately and a total of 71 significant markers located within 36 gene models were identified. The majority of these markers are located on chromosome 5B. Haplotype block analysis identified seven blocks containing the significant markers on chromosome 5B. Five gene models were identified on the short arm of the chromosome. Gene enrichment analysis identified five and seven pathways based on the biological process and molecular functions respectively for the detected gene models. All these pathways are associated with disease resistance in wheat. The genomic regions on 5B seem to be novel regions that are associated with PM resistance under Egyptian conditions. Selection of superior genotypes was done and Grecian genotypes seem to be a good source for improving PM resistance under Egyptian conditions.

Orthologous genes Pm12 and Pm21 from two wild relatives of wheat show evolutionary conservation but divergent powdery mildew resistance. PLANT COMMUNICATIONS 2023; 4:100472. [PMID: 36352792 PMCID: PMC10030366 DOI: 10.1016/j.xplc.2022.100472] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 18.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/18/2022] [Revised: 09/23/2022] [Accepted: 11/07/2022] [Indexed: 05/04/2023]
Abstract
Wheat powdery mildew, caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici (Bgt), is a devastating disease that threatens wheat production worldwide. Pm12, which originated from Aegilops speltoides, a wild relative of wheat, confers strong resistance to powdery mildew and therefore has potential use in wheat breeding. Using susceptible mutants induced by gamma irradiation, we physically mapped and isolated Pm12 and showed it to be orthologous to Pm21 from Dasypyrum villosum, also a wild relative of wheat. The resistance function of Pm12 was validated via ethyl methanesulfonate mutagenesis, virus-induced gene silencing, and stable genetic transformation. Evolutionary analysis indicates that the Pm12/Pm21 loci in wheat species are relatively conserved but dynamic. Here, we demonstrated that the two orthologous genes, Pm12 and Pm21, possess differential resistance against the same set of Bgt isolates. Overexpression of the coiled-coil domains of both PM12 and PM21 induces cell death in Nicotiana benthamiana leaves. However, their full-length forms display different cell death-inducing activities caused by their distinct intramolecular interactions. Cloning of Pm12 will facilitate its application in wheat breeding programs. This study also gives new insight into two orthologous resistance genes, Pm12 and Pm21, which show different race specificities and intramolecular interaction patterns.

Abstract
Durum wheat (Triticum turgidum subsp. durum (Desf.) Husn.) is an allotetraploid cereal crop of worldwide importance, given its use for making pasta, couscous, and bulgur. Under climate change scenarios, abiotic (e.g., high and low temperatures, salinity, drought) and biotic (mainly exemplified by fungal pathogens) stresses represent a significant limit for durum cultivation because they can severely affect yield and grain quality. The advent of next-generation sequencing technologies has brought a huge development in transcriptomic resources with many relevant datasets now available for durum wheat, at various anatomical levels, also focusing on phenological phases and environmental conditions. In this review, we cover all the transcriptomic resources generated on durum wheat to date and focus on the corresponding scientific insights gained into abiotic and biotic stress responses. We describe relevant databases, tools and approaches, including connections with other "omics" that could assist data integration for candidate gene discovery for bio-agronomical traits. The biological knowledge summarized here will ultimately help in accelerating durum wheat breeding.

TaSYP137 and TaVAMP723, the SNAREs Proteins from Wheat, Reduce Resistance to Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24054830.

Abstract
SNARE protein is an essential factor driving vesicle fusion in eukaryotes. Several SNAREs have been shown to play a crucial role in protecting against powdery mildew and other pathogens. In our previous study, we identified SNARE family members and analyzed their expression pattern in response to powdery mildew infection. Based on quantitative expression and RNA-seq results, we focused on TaSYP137/TaVAMP723 and hypothesized that they play an important role in the interaction between wheat and Blumeria graminis f. sp. Tritici (Bgt). In this study, we measured the expression patterns of TaSYP132/TaVAMP723 genes in wheat post-infection with Bgt and found that the expression pattern of TaSYP137/TaVAMP723 was opposite in resistant and susceptible wheat samples infected by Bgt. The overexpression of TaSYP137/TaVAMP723 disrupted wheat's defense against Bgt infection, while silencing these genes enhanced its resistance to Bgt. Subcellular localization studies revealed that TaSYP137/TaVAMP723 are present in both the plasma membrane and nucleus. The interaction between TaSYP137 and TaVAMP723 was confirmed using the yeast two-hybrid (Y2H) system. This study offers novel insights into the involvement of SNARE proteins in the resistance of wheat against Bgt, thereby enhancing our comprehension of the role of the SNARE family in the pathways related to plant disease resistance.

Abstract
Powdery mildew, caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici (Bgt), is a serious fungal disease that critically threatens the yield and quality of wheat. Utilization of host resistance is the most effective and economical method to control this disease. In our study, a wheat breeding line ShiCG15-009, released from Hebei Province, was highly resistant to powdery mildew at all stages. To dissect its genetic basis, ShiCG15-009 was crossed with the susceptible cultivar Yannong 21 to produce F1, F2 and F2:3 progenies. After genetic analysis, a single dominant gene, tentatively designated PmCG15-009, was proved to confer resistance to Bgt isolate E09. Further molecular markers analysis showed that PmCG15-009 was located on chromosome 2BL and flanked by markers XCINAU130 and XCINAU143 with the genetic distances 0.2 and 0.4 cM, respectively, corresponding to a physic interval of 705.14-723.48 Mb referred to the Chinese Spring reference genome sequence v2.1. PmCG15-009 was most likely a new gene differed from the documented Pm genes on chromosome 2BL since its different origin, genetic diversity, and physical position. To analyze and identify the candidate genes, six genes associated with disease resistance in the candidate interval were confirmed to be associated with PmCG15-009 via qRT-PCR analysis using the parents ShiCG15-009 and Yannong 21 and time-course analysis post-inoculation with Bgt isolate E09. To accelerate the transfer of PmCG15-009 using marker-assisted selection (MAS), 18 closely or co-segregated markers were evaluated and confirmed to be suitable for tracing PmCG15-009, when it was transferred into different wheat cultivars.

Abstract
Wheat powdery mildew (Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici, Bgt, recently clarified as B. graminis s. str.), is one of the most destructive diseases of wheat. Pm60 is a nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat (NLR) gene that confers race-specific resistance to Bgt. Allelic variants (Pm60, Pm60a, and Pm60b) were found in Triticum urartu and T. dicoccoides, the wild progenitors of wheat. In the present study, we studied the diversity of the Pm60 locus in a large set of wheat germplasm and found 20 tetraploid wheats harboring the Pm60 alleles, which correspond to three novel haplotypes (HapI-HapIII). HapI (Pm60 allele) and HapII (Pm60a allele) were present in domesticated tetraploid wheats, whereas HapIII (Pm60a allele) was identified in wild tetraploid T. araraticum. A sequence comparison of HapII and HapIII revealed that they differed by three SNPs and a GCC deletion. Results of the phylogenetic analysis revealed that HapII was more closely related to the functional haplotype MlIW172. Infection tests showed that HapII-carrying lines display a partial resistance response to Bgt#GH, while HapI was susceptible. Our results provide insights into the genetic evolution of the Pm60 locus and potential valuable alleles for powdery mildew resistance breeding.

Abstract
Powdery mildew, caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici (Bgt), poses a severe threat to wheat yield and quality worldwide. Rapid identification and the accurate transference of effective resistance genes are important to the development of resistant cultivars and the sustainable control of this disease. In the present study, the wheat line AL11 exhibited high levels of resistance to powdery mildew at both the seedling and adult plant stages. Genetic analysis of the AL11 × 'Shixin 733' mapping population revealed that its resistance was controlled by a single dominant gene, tentatively designated PmAL11. Using bulked segregant RNA-Seq and molecular marker analysis, PmAL11 was mapped to the Pm5 locus on chromosome 7B where it cosegregated with the functional marker Pm5e-KASP. Sequence alignment analysis revealed that the Pm5e-homologous sequence in AL11 was identical to the reported recessive gene Pm5e in wheat landrace 'Fuzhuang 30'. It appears that PmAL11 was most probably Pm5e, but it was mediated by a dominant inheritance pattern, so it should provide a valuable resistance resource for both genetic study and wheat breeding. To efficiently use and trace PmAL11 in breeding, a new kompetitive allele-specific PCR marker AL11-K2488 that cosegregated with this gene was developed and confirmed to be applicable in the different wheat backgrounds, thus promoting its use in the marker-assisted selection of PmAL11.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Powdery mildew caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici (Bgt) is prevalent in the main wheat-producing regions of China, resulting in severe yield losses in recent years. Mining and utilization of resistant genes from wild relatives of wheat is the most environmentally sound measure to control disease. Aegilops geniculata Roth (2n = 2x = 28, UgUgMgMg) is an essential and valuable disease-resistance gene donor for wheat improvement as a close relative species. RESULTS In this study, to validate powdery mildew resistance locus on chromosome 7Mg, two genetic populations were constructed and through crossing wheat - Ae. geniculata 7Mg disomic addition line NA0973-5-4-1-2-9-1 and 7Mg (7 A) alien disomic substitution line W16998 with susceptible Yuanfeng175 (YF175, authorized varieties from Shaanxi province in 2005), respectively. Cytological examination, in situ hybridization (ISH), and functional molecular markers analysis revealed that the plants carrying chromosome 7Mg showed high resistance to powdery mildew in both F1 and F2 generation at the seedling stage. Besides, 84 specific markers were developed to identify the plants carrying chromosome 7Mg resistance based on the specific-locus amplified fragment sequencing (SLAF-seq) technique. Among them, four markers were selected randomly to check the reliability in F2 segregating populations derived from YF175/NA0973-5-4-1-2-9-1 and YF175/W16998. In summary, the above analysis confirmed that a dominant high powdery mildew resistance gene was located on chromosome 7Mg of Ae. geniculata. CONCLUSION The results provide a basis for mapping the powdery mildew resistance gene mapping on chromosome 7Mg and specific markers for their utilization in the future.

Abstract
Powdery mildew, caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici (Bgt), is a destructive fungal disease of wheat throughout the world. Utilization of effective powdery mildew resistance genes and cultivars is considered as the most economic, efficient, and environmental-friendly method to control this disease. Synthetic hexaploid wheat (SHW), which was developed through hybridization of diploid Aegilops and tetraploid wheat, is a valuable genetic resource for resistance to powdery mildew. SHW line YAV249 showed high levels of resistance to powdery mildew at both the seedling and adult stages. Genetic analysis indicated that the resistance was controlled by a single dominant gene, temporarily designated PmYAV. Bulked segregant analysis with wheat 660K single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array scanning and marker analysis showed that PmYAV was located on chromosome 2AL and flanked by markers Xgdm93 and Xwgrc763, respectively, with genetic distances of 0.8 cM and 1.2 cM corresponding to a physic interval of 1.89 Mb on the Chinese Spring reference genome sequence v1.0. Sequence alignment analysis demonstrated that the sequence of PmYAV was consistent with that of Pm4a but generated an extra splicing event. When inoculated with different Bgt isolates, PmYAV showed a significantly different spectrum from Pm4a, hence it might be a new resistant resource for improvement of powdery mildew resistance. The flanked markers GDM93 and WGRC763, and the co-segregated markers BCD1231 and JS717/JS718 were confirmed to be easily performed in marker-assisted selection (MAS) of PmYAV. Using MAS strategy, PmYAV was transferred into the commercial cultivar Kenong 199 (KN199) and a wheat line YK13 was derived at generation BC3F3 from the population of YAV249/4*KN199 due to its excellent agronomic traits and resistance to powdery mildew. In conclusion, an alternative splicing variant of Pm4 was identified in this study, which informed the regulation of Pm4 gene function.

Abstract
Powdery mildew caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici (Bgt) is a destructive disease of wheat throughout the world. Host resistance is considered the most sustainable way to control this disease. Powdery mildew resistance gene Pm2b was mapped to the same genetic interval with Pm2a and PmCH1357 cloned previously, but showed different resistance spectra from them, indicating that they might be caused by different resistance genes or alleles. In this study, Pm2b was delimited to a 1.64 Mb physical interval using a large segregating population containing 4,354 F2:3 families of resistant parent KM2939 and susceptible cultivar Shimai 15. In this interval, TraesCS5D03G0111700 encoding the coiled-coil nucleotide-binding site leucine-rich repeat protein (CC-NBS-LRR) was determined as the candidate gene of Pm2b. Silencing by barley stripe mosaic virus-induced gene silencing (BSMV-VIGS) technology and two independent mutants analysis in KM2939 confirmed the candidate gene TraesCS5D03G0111700 was Pm2b. The sequence of Pm2b was consistent with Pm2a/PmCH1357. Subcellular localization showed Pm2b was located on the cell nucleus and plasma membrane. Pm2b had the highest expression level in leaves and was rapidly up-regulated after inoculating with Bgt isolate E09. The yeast two-hybrid (Y2H) and luciferase complementation imaging assays (LCI) showed that PM2b could self-associate through the NB domain. Notably, we identified PM2b interacting with the transcription factor TaWRKY76-D, which depended on the NB domain of PM2b and WRKY domain of TaWRKY76-D. TaWRKY76-D negatively regulated the resistance to powdery mildew in wheat. The specific KASP marker K529 could take the advantage of high-throughput and high-efficiency for detecting Pm2b and be useful in molecular marker assisted-selection breeding. In conclusion, cloning and disease resistance mechanism analysis of Pm2b provided an example to emphasize a need of the molecular isolation of resistance genes, which has implications in marker assisted wheat breeding.

Abstract
Developing effective and durable host plant resistance is crucial for controlling powdery mildew, a devastating disease caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici (Bgt). In the present study, we dissected the genetic basis of the adult plant resistance to powdery mildew using a recombinant inbred line (RIL) composed of 176 F9 RILs population derived from a cross between PuBing 3228 (P3228) and susceptible cultivar Gao 8901. P3228 exhibits stable adult-plant resistance to powdery mildew in the field over consecutive years. We identified two QTLs on chromosomes 7DS (QPm.cas-7D) and 1AL (QPm.cas-1A) contributed by P3228, and one QTL on 3DS (QPm.cas-3D) contributed by Gao 8901, which could explain 65.44%, 3.45%, and 2.18% of the phenotypic variances, respectively. By analyzing the annotated genes in the 1.168 Mb physical interval of the major QTL QPm.cas-7D, we locked a previously cloned adult-plant resistance gene Pm38 that was most probably the candidate gene of QPm.cas-7D. Sequence alignment analysis revealed that the candidate gene of QPm.cas-7D in P3228 was identical to the reported Pm38 sequence. Two haplotypes QPm-7D-R and QPm-7D-S were identified in the whole Pm38 genomic regions between P3228 and Gao 8901. To apply QPm.cas-7D in wheat breeding, we developed a kompetitive allele-specific PCR (KASP) marker Kasp5249 that is closely linked with these haplotypes. It is worth mentioning that the QPm-7D-R haplotype significantly decreased TKW and underwent negative selection for higher yields in China wheat breeding. In this study, we identified a major QTL QPm.cas-7D and revealed the relationship between its resistance and yield, which could be beneficial for further applications in wheat disease resistance and high-yield breeding.

Abstract
Fungal diseases, drought, pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) and other biotic and abiotic stresses have seriously affected the quality and yield in wheat production. Identifying related genes/loci in released cultivars/lines can provide reference information and theoretical basis for wheat improvement. Yannong series wheat cultivars/lines have distinctive characteristics in wheat cultivars and play an important role in genetic improvement and production of Chinese wheat production system. To dissect their genetic basis of the stress-resistant traits, in this study, 23 representative Yannong series wheat cultivars/lines were tested by 58 molecular markers for 40 genes related to adaptability, disease resistance and stress tolerance to clarify the genetic composition of the key loci. The results showed that most of the tested wheat accessions carried dwarfing genes RhtB1b/RhtD1b/Rht8 and recessive vernalization genes vrn-A1/vrn-B1/vrn-D1/vrn-B3. It was also consistent with the phenotypic traits of tested Yannong series wheat which were dwarf and winter or semi winter wheat. In addition, the overall level of seedling powdery mildew resistance in 23 Yannong wheat cultivars/lines was moderate or inadequate. Eleven accessions carried none of the tested Pm genes and twelve accessions carried Pm2, Pm6, Pm42 and Pm52 singly or in combination. Then, 23 wheat cultivars/lines were also tested by 17 diagnostic markers for 14 Yr genes. The results showed that 16 wheat cultivars/lines were likely to carry one or more of tested Yr genes, whereas Yannong 15, Yannong 17, Yannong 23, Yannong 24, Yannong 377, Yannong 572 and Yannong 999 carried none of the tested Yr genes. Moreover, in our study, nine markers for four genes related to drought tolerance and PHS were used to evaluate the stress tolerance of the 23 wheat cultivars/lines. The results indicated that all 23 wheat cultivars/lines carried drought resistance genes Ta-Dreb1/TaCRT-D, indicating that they had the drought resistance to the extent. Except for Yannong 30, Yannong 377, Yannong 390, Yannong 745 and Yannong 1766, other wheat cultivars/lines carried one to three elite PHS-resistant alleles Vp-1Bc/Vp-1Bf/TaAFP-1Bb.

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. [PMID: 36142197 PMCID: PMC9499632 DOI: 10.3390/ijms231810285] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/31/2022] [Revised: 08/30/2022] [Accepted: 08/31/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
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
Powdery mildew of wheat (Triticum aestivum), caused by Blumeria graminis f.sp. tritici (Bgt), is a destructive disease that seriously threatens the yield and quality of its host. Identifying resistance genes is the most attractive and effective strategy for developing disease-resistant cultivars and controlling this disease. In this study, a wheat breeding line Yannong 99102-06188 (YN99102), an elite derivative line from the same breeding process as the famous wheat cultivar Yannong 999, showed high resistance to powdery mildew at the whole growth stages. Genetic analysis was carried out using Bgt isolate E09 and a population of YN99102 crossed with a susceptible parent Jinhe 13-205 (JH13-205). The result indicated that a single recessive gene, tentatively designated pmYN99102, conferred seedling resistance to the Bgt isolate E09. Using bulked segregant exome capture sequencing (BSE-Seq), pmYN99102 was physically located to a ~33.7 Mb (691.0-724.7 Mb) interval on the chromosome arm 2BL, and this interval was further locked in a 1.5 cM genetic interval using molecular markers, which was aligned to a 9.0 Mb physical interval (699.2-708.2 Mb). Based on the analysis of physical location, origin, resistant spectrum, and inherited pattern, pmYN99102 differed from those of the reported powdery mildew (Pm) resistance genes on 2BL, suggesting pmYN99102 is most likely a new Pm gene/allele in the targeted interval. To transfer pmYN99102 to different genetic backgrounds using marker-assisted selection (MAS), 18 closely linked markers were tested for their availability in different genetic backgrounds for MAS, and all markers expect for YTU103-97 can be used in MAS for tracking pmYN99102 when it transferred into those susceptible cultivars.

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
Excessive nitrogen (N) application may induce powdery mildew (PM) in perennial grasses, but the resistance mechanisms to PM remain unclear. This study evaluated the physiological and molecular mechanisms of PM resistance affected by N supplies in Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.). Cultivar 'Bluemoon' (N tolerant) and 'Balin' (N sensitive) were treated with low N (0.5 mM), normal N (15 mM), and high N (30 mM) for 21 d in a greenhouse. With increasing N levels, the disease growth was more severe in 'Balin' than in 'Bluemoon'. RNA-seq and weighted gene coexpression network analysis revealed that the PpGS1.1 gene encoding glutamine synthetase was a potential hub gene for PM resistance after comparisons across cultivars and N treatments. The N metabolism pathway was connected with the plant-pathogen interaction pathway via PpGS1.1. The expression of PpGS1.1 in rice protoplasts indicated that the protein was located in the nucleus and cytoplasm. Overexpression of PpGS1.1 in wild-type Kentucky bluegrass increased carbon and N contents, and the transgenic plants became more susceptible to PM with a lower wax density. The most differentially expressed genes (DEGs) for N metabolism were upregulated and DEGs for fatty acid metabolism pathway were downregulated in the overexpression lines. The results elucidated mechanisms of PM resistance in relation to N metabolism in Kentucky bluegrass.

Abstract
Wheat powdery mildew is a devastating disease leading to severe yield loss. The powdery mildew resistance gene Pm21, encoding a nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat receptor (NLR) protein, confers broad-spectrum resistance to powdery mildew and has great potential for controlling this disease. In this study, a large-scale mutagenesis was conducted on wheat cultivar (cv.) Yangmai 18 carrying Pm21. As a result, a total of 113 independent mutant lines susceptible to powdery mildew were obtained, among which, only one lost the whole Pm21 locus and the other 112 harbored one- (107) or two-base (5) mutations in the encoding region of Pm21. From the 107 susceptible mutants containing one-base change, we found that 25 resulted in premature stop codons leading to truncated proteins and 82 led to amino acid changes involving in 59 functional sites. We determined the mutations per one hundred amino acids (MPHA) indexes of different domains, motifs, and non-domain and non-motif regions of PM21 protein and found that the loss-of-function mutations occurred in a tendentious means. We also observed a new mutation hotspot that was closely linked to RNBS-D motif of the NB-ARC domain and relatively conserved in different NLRs of wheat crops. In addition, we crossed all the susceptible mutants with Yangmai 18 carrying wild-type Pm21, subsequently phenotyped their F1 plants and revealed that the variant E44K in the coiled-coil (CC) domain could lead to dominant-negative effect. This study revealed key functional sites of PM21 and their distribution characteristics, which would contribute to understanding the relationship of resistance and structure of Pm21-encoded NLR.

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.

Chromosomal mapping of a locus associated with adult-stage resistance to powdery mildew from Agropyron cristatum chromosome 6PL in wheat. TAG. THEORETICAL AND APPLIED GENETICS.

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
Powdery mildew is one of the most devastating foliar diseases in wheat production. The wild relative Thinopyrum ponticum (2n = 10x = 70) has been widely used in wheat genetic improvement due to its superior resistance to both biotic and abiotic stresses. In the present study, two wheat-Th. ponticum introgression lines named SN0293-2 and SN0293-7 were developed from the progenies of a cross between the octoploid Trititrigia SNTE20 and common wheat, including the elite cultivar Jimai 22. They had a novel powdery mildew resistance gene (temporarily named PmSN0293) putatively from Th. ponticum pyramided with Pm2 and Pm52, exhibiting excellent Pm resistance at both the seedling and adult stages. Sequential GISH-FISH detected no signal of Th. ponticum in these two lines but a pair of T1BL·1RS in SN0293-2. Chromosomal structural variations were also observed obviously in SN0293-2 and SN0293-7. Through the Wheat 660K SNP array, 157 SNPs, 134 of which were on 6A, were found to be specific to Th. ponticum. Based on the data combined with DNA re-sequencing, seven specific markers, including one CAPS marker on 2B and six CAPS and Indel markers on 6A, were developed, confirming their wheat-Th. ponticum introgression nature. Furthermore, the two lines displayed positive plant height and produced more kernels and higher 1,000-grain weight. Excellent resistance with desirable agronomic traits makes them valuable in wheat breeding programs.

Abstract
Powdery mildew, caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici (Bgt), is a devastating fungal disease that seriously damages the yield and quality of wheat in many regions of the world. Identifying new resistance genes and breeding new resistant varieties are effective methods to control this disease. The breeding line SN15218 shows good resistance against powdery mildew. We, therefore, developed an F2 population and 287 F2:3 families crossed between SN15218 and the powdery mildew susceptible cultivar Huixianhong (HXH). Genetic analysis indicated that a single dominant gene, designated herein Pm SN15218 , conferred resistance to the Bgt isolate E09 in SN15218. Bulked segregant RNA-Seq (BSR-Seq) analysis revealed that Pm SN15218 is located in a ∼25-Mb interval on chromosome 2AL. Using the polymorphism information between SN15218 and HXH, we developed 13 polymerase chain reaction (PCR) markers and mapped this gene to a 0.5-cM genetic interval between the two flanking markers PmM12 and PmM14, corresponding to a 6.01-Mb physical region in the Chinese Spring reference genome. The results of molecular marker analysis, allelic tests of resistance spectrum, and DNA resequencing indicated that Pm SN15218 is distinct from the known resistance gene Pm4b on 2AL.

Abstract
Powdery mildew of wheat is a foliar disease that is spread worldwide. Cultivation of resistant varieties is the most effective, economical, and environmentally friendly strategy to curb this disease. Powdery mildew resistance genes (Pm) are the primary resources for resistance breeding, and new Pm genes are in constant demand. Previously, we identified Aegilops longissima chromosome 6Sl#3 as a carrier of powdery mildew resistance and designated the resistance gene as Pm6Sl. Here, we reported the design of 24 markers specific to 6Sl#3 on the basis of the full-length cDNA sequences of 6Sl#3 donor Ae. longissma accession TA1910, and the development of wheat-Ae. longissima 6Sl#3 introgression stocks by ph1b-induced homoeologous recombination. Further, 6Sl#3 introgression lines were identified and characterized by integration analysis of powdery mildew responses, in situ hybridization, and molecular markers and Pm6Sl was mapped to a distal interval of 42.80 Mb between markers Ael58410 and Ael57699 in the long arm of 6Sl#3. Two resistant recombinants, R43 (T6BS.6BL-6Sl#3L) and T27 (Ti6AS.6AL-6Sl#3L-6AL), contained segments harboring Pm6Sl with less than 8% of 6Sl#3 genomic length, and two markers were diagnostic for Pm6Sl. This study broadened powdery mildew resistance gene resources for wheat improvement and provided a fundamental basis for fine mapping and cloning of Pm6Sl to further understand its molecular mechanism of disease resistance.

Abstract
Powdery mildew resistance gene MlWE74, originated from wild emmer wheat accession G-748-M, was mapped in an NBS-LRR gene cluster of chromosome 2BS. Wheat powdery mildew, caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici (Bgt), is a globally devastating disease. Wild emmer wheat (Triticum turgidum var. dicoccoides) is a valuable genetic resource for improving disease resistance in common wheat. A powdery mildew resistance gene was transferred to hexaploid wheat line WE74 from wild emmer accession G-748-M. Genetic analysis revealed that the powdery mildew resistance in WE74 is controlled by a single dominant gene, herein temporarily designated MlWE74. Bulked segregant analysis (BSA) and molecular mapping delimited MlWE74 to the terminal region of chromosome 2BS flanking by markers WGGBD412 and WGGBH346 within a genetic interval of 0.25 cM and corresponding to 799.9 kb genomic region in the Zavitan reference sequence. Sequence annotation revealed two phosphoglycerate mutase-like genes, an alpha/beta-hydrolases gene, and five NBS-LRR disease resistance genes that could serve as candidates for map-based cloning of MlWE74. The geographical location analysis indicated that MlWE74 is mainly distributed in Rosh Pinna and Amirim regions, in the northern part of Israel, where environmental conditions are favorable to the occurrence of powdery mildew. Moreover, the co-segregated marker WGGBD425 is helpful in marker-assisted transfer of MlWE74 into elite cultivars.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) powdery mildew (Pm), which caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici (Bgt), is a destructive disease worldwide that causes severe yield losses in wheat. Resistant wheat cultivars easily lose their ability to effectively resist newly emerged Bgt strains; therefore, identifying new resistance genes is necessary for breeding resistant cultivars. METHODS AND RESULTS Guizi 1 (GZ1) is a Chinese wheat cultivar with moderate and stable resistance to Pm. Genetic analysis indicated that the Pm resistance of GZ1 was controlled by a single dominant gene, designated PmGZ1. In total, 110 F2 individual plants and their 2 parents were subjected to genotyping by sequencing (GBS), which yielded 23,134 high-quality single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). The SNP distributions across the 21 chromosomes ranged from 134 on chromosome 6D to 6288 on chromosome 3B. Chromosome 6A has 1866 SNPs, among which 16 are physically located between positions 307,802,221 and 309,885,836 in an approximate 2.3-cM region; this region also had the greatest SNP density. The average map distance between SNP markers was 0.1 cM. A quantitative trait locus (QTL) with a significant epistatic effect on Pm resistance was mapped to chromosome 6A. The logarithm of odds (LOD) value of PmGZ1 was 34.8, and PmGZ1 was located within the confidence interval marked by chr6a-307802221 and chr6a-309885836. Moreover, 74.7% of the phenotypic variance was explained by PmGZ1. Four candidate genes (which encoded two TaAP2-A and two actin proteins) were annotated maybe as resistance genes. CONCLUSIONS The present results provide valuable information for wheat genetic improvement, QTL fine mapping, and candidate gene validation.

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
A stable QTL QPm.caas-3BS for adult-plant resistance to powdery mildew was mapped in an interval of 431 kb, and candidate genes were predicted based on gene sequences and expression profiles. Powdery mildew is a devastating foliar disease occurring in most wheat-growing areas. Characterization and fine mapping of genes for powdery mildew resistance can benefit marker-assisted breeding. We previously identified a stable quantitative trait locus (QTL) QPm.caas-3BS for adult-plant resistance to powdery mildew in a recombinant inbred line population of Zhou8425B/Chinese Spring by phenotyping across four environments. Using 11 heterozygous recombinants and high-density molecular markers, QPm.caas-3BS was delimited in a physical interval of approximately 3.91 Mb. Based on re-sequenced data and expression profiles, three genes TraesCS3B02G014800, TraesCS3B02G016800 and TraesCS3B02G019900 were associated with the powdery mildew resistance locus. Three gene-specific kompetitive allele-specific PCR (KASP) markers were developed from these genes and validated in the Zhou8425B derivatives and Zhou8425B/Chinese Spring population in which the resistance gene was mapped to a 0.3 cM interval flanked by KASP14800 and snp_50465, corresponding to a 431 kb region at the distal end of chromosome 3BS. Within the interval, TraesCS3B02G014800 was the most likely candidate gene for QPm.caas-3BS, but TraesCS3B02G016300 and TraesCS3B02G016400 were less likely candidates based on gene annotations and sequence variation between the parents. These results not only offer high-throughput KASP markers for improvement of powdery mildew resistance but also pave the way to map-based cloning of the resistance gene.

Abstract
Powdery mildew induced by Blumeria graminis f. sp. Tritici (Bgt) has a devastating impact on global wheat yield and quality. Host resistance is the most effective and economical means to control this disease. In this study, Heng 4568, an elite wheat cultivar, shows high resistance to 12 Bgt isolates from different regions in China at the seedling stage. Genetic analysis demonstrates that the powdery mildew resistance in Heng 4568 is conferred by a single dominant locus, temporarily designated PmH4568. Furthermore, PmH4568 is mapped to the reported Pm2 interval on chromosome 5DS with five Pm2 linked markers and flanked by the markers Bwm20 and Bwm21 with a genetic distance of 0.3 and 0.6 cM, respectively. To further investigate the relationship between PmH4568 and Pm2, the diagnostic marker Pm2b-map-3 of Pm2 is used to genotype the F2:3 population derived from the cross Heng 4568 × Daimai 2173. Notably, there is no recombination found, indicating that PmH4568 is also probably a Pm2 allele. In addition, five closely linked markers as well as one diagnostic marker are successfully developed and tested in 16 wheat cultivars from different agro-ecological areas in China, which have potential applications in molecular breeding by marker-assisted selection.

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.

Abstract
Powdery mildew of wheat, caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici (Bgt), is a devastating disease that seriously reduces yield and quality worldwide. Utilization of plant resistance genes is an attractive and effective strategy for controlling this disease. Among the reported powdery mildew (Pm) resistance genes, Pm2 exhibits a diverse resistance spectrum among its multiple alleles. It has been widely used in China for resistance breeding for powdery mildew. To mine more Pm2 alleles and clarify their distribution, we screened 33 wheat cultivars/breeding lines carrying Pm2 alleles from 641 wheat genotypes using diagnostic and Pm2-linked markers. To further investigate the relationships within the Pm2 alleles, we compared their resistance spectra, polymorphism of marker alleles and gene sequences, and found that they have identical marker alleles and gene sequences but diverse resistance spectra. In addition, the diagnostic kompetitive allele-specific PCR (KASP) marker, YTU-KASP-Pm2, was developed and was shown to detect all the Pm2 alleles in the different genetic backgrounds. These findings provide valuable information for the distribution and rational use of Pm2 alleles, push forward their marker-assisted breeding (MAS), and hence improve the control of wheat powdery mildew.

Abstract
Wheat powdery mildew, caused by Blumeria graminis (DC.) Speer f. sp. tritici is a destructive disease seriously threatening yield and quality of common wheat (Triticum aestivum L., 2n=6x=42, AABBDD). Characterization of resistance genes against powdery mildew is useful in parental selection and for developing disease-resistant cultivars. Chinese wheat breeding line KN0816 has superior agronomic performance and resistance to powdery mildew at all growth stages. Genetic analysis using populations of KN0816 crossed with different susceptible parents indicated that a single dominant gene, tentatively designated PmKN0816, conferred seedling resistance to different B. graminis f. sp. tritici isolates. Using a bulked segregant analysis, PmKN0816 was mapped to the Pm6 interval on chromosome arm 2BL using polymorphic markers linked to the cataloged genes Pm6, Pm52, and Pm64, and flanked by the markers CISSR02g-6 and CIT02g-2, both with genetic distances of 0.7 cM. Analysis of closely linked molecular markers indicated that the marker alleles of PmKN0816 differed from those of other powdery mildew resistance genes on 2BL, including Pm6, Pm33, Pm51, Pm64, and PmQ. Based on the genetic and physical locations and response pattern to different B. graminis f. sp. tritici isolates, PmKN0816 is most likely a new powdery mildew resistance gene and possesses effective resistance to all the 14 tested B. graminis f. sp. tritici isolates. In view of the elite agronomic performance of KN0816 combined with the resistance, PmKN0816 is expected to become a valuable resistance gene in wheat breeding. To transfer PmKN0816 to different genetic backgrounds using marker-assisted selection (MAS), closely linked markers of PmKN0816 were evaluated, and four of them (CIT02g-2, CISSR02g-6, CIT02g-10, and CIT02g-17) were confirmed to be applicable for MAS in different genetic backgrounds.

Abstract
Powdery mildew and leaf rust, caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici and Puccinia triticina, respectively, are widespread diseases of wheat worldwide. The use of resistant cultivars is considered the most economical, environment-friendly, and effective method to control these diseases. In the present study, a collection of 2,978 wheat accessions consisting of 1,394 advanced breeding lines, 1,078 Chinese cultivars, 291 introduced cultivars, 132 lines containing alien chromosomes, and 83 landraces was tested for reactions to powdery mildew and leaf rust. The results indicated that 659 wheat accessions (22.1%) were highly resistant to a widely prevalent B. graminis f. sp. tritici isolate, E09, at the seedling stage, and 390 were consistently resistant to the mixture of B. graminis f. sp. tritici isolates at the adult plant stage. Meanwhile, 63 accessions (2.1%) were highly resistant to leaf rust at the adult plant stage, of which 54 were resistant to a predominant and highly virulent P. triticina race, THTT, at the seedling stage. Notably, 17 accessions were resistant to both powdery mildew and leaf rust. To detect known genes for resistance to powdery mildew and leaf rust, these accessions were tested with gene-specific or tightly linked markers for seven powdery mildew genes (Pm genes; Pm2, Pm4, Pm5, Pm6, Pm8, Pm21, and Pm24) and 10 Lr genes (Lr1, Lr9, Lr10, Lr19, Lr20, Lr24, Lr26, Lr34, Lr37, and Lr46). Of the 659 powdery mildew-resistant accessions, 328 might carry single Pm genes and 191 carry combined Pm genes. Pm2 was detected at the highest frequency of 59.6%, followed by Pm8, Pm6, Pm21, Pm4, and Pm5, whereas Pm24 was not detected. In addition, 139 accessions might contain unknown Pm genes different from those tested in this study. In the 63 accessions resistant to leaf rust, four leaf rust genes (Lr genes; Lr1, Lr10, Lr26, and Lr34) were detected in 41 accessions singly or in combination, whereas six genes (Lr9, Lr19, Lr20, Lr24, Lr37, and Lr46) were not detected. Twenty-two accessions might contain unknown Lr genes different from those tested in this study. This study not only provided important information for rationally distributing resistance genes in wheat breeding programs, but also identified resistant germplasm that might have novel genes to enrich the diversity of resistance sources.

Abstract
Powdery mildew of wheat, caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici, is a destructive disease of common wheat. Cultivation of resistant varieties is the most cost-effective disease management strategy. Previous studies reported that chromosome 3Sl#2 present in Chinese Spring (CS)-Aegilops longissima 3Sl#2(3B) disomic substitution line TA3575 conferred resistance to powdery mildew. In this study, we further located the powdery mildew resistance gene(s) to the short arm of chromosome 3Sl#2 (3Sl#2S) by evaluating for B. graminis f. sp. tritici resistance of newly developed CS-Ae. longissima 3Sl#2 translocation lines. Meanwhile, TA7545, a previously designated CS-Ae. longissima 3Sl#3 disomic addition line, was reidentified as an isochromosome 3Sl#3S addition line and evaluated to confer resistance to powdery mildew, thus locating the resistance gene(s) to the short arm of chromosome 3Sl#3 (3Sl#3S). Based on transcriptome sequences of TA3575, 10 novel chromosome 3SlS-specific markers were developed, of which 5 could be used to distinguish between 3Sl#2S and 3Sl#3S derived from Ae. longissima accessions TL20 and TA1910 (TAM4) and the remaining 5 could identify both 3Sl#2S and 3Sl#3S. Also, CL897, one of five markers specific to both 3Sl#2S and 3Sl#3S, could be used to detect Pm13 located at chromosome 3Sl#1S from Ae. longissima accession TL01 in diverse wheat genetic backgrounds. The powdery mildew resistance genes on chromosomes 3Sl#2S and 3Sl#3S, the CS-Ae. longissima 3Sl#2 translocation lines, and the 3SlS-specific markers developed in this study will facilitate the transfer of B. graminis f. sp. tritici resistance genes into common wheat and provide new germplasm resources for powdery mildew resistance breeding.

Abstract
Wheat powdery mildew is a devastating disease that seriously threatens yield worldwide. Utilization of host resistance is considered an effective strategy to minimize powdery mildew damage. Pm21, PmV, and Pm12 confer broad-spectrum resistance to wheat powdery mildew in China, of which Pm21 and PmV are allelic genes derived from the 6VS chromosome of Dasypyrum villosum, and Pm12 is derived from the 6SS chromosome of Aegilops speltoides and most likely orthologous to the former two genes. To accurately and efficiently transfer and pyramid these genes using marker-assisted selection (MAS), distinctive single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) among the exon sequences of Pm21, PmV, and Pm12 and their homologous sequences in the common wheat genome were identified and then used for developing diagnostic Kompetitive Allele-Specific PCR (KASP) markers. The markers were validated in different genotypes including transgenic vectors, transgenic lines, translocation lines, resistance stocks with documented Pm genes, and in multiple susceptible cultivars without Pm genes. As a result, we initially developed a KASP marker that can simultaneously diagnose Pm21, Pm12, and PmV. Subsequently, we obtained a highly diagnostic KASP marker for each of the three genes that could distinguish among the three genes and also accurately distinguish them from other resistant stocks with documented Pm genes and from multiple susceptible genotypes. Compared with previously reported markers, the highly diagnostic KASP markers developed in this study have the advantages of low cost, easy assay, accuracy, and potentially high throughput for MAS.

Abstract
Thinopyrum ponticum (2n = 10x = 70) is a wild relative of wheat with high tolerance to both biotic and abiotic stresses; it has been wildly used in wheat genetic improvement. A disomic substitution line named SN19647 was derived from a cross between Triticum aestivum and the wheat-Th. ponticum partial amphiploid SNTE20 (2n = 8x = 56). It was evaluated for disease resistance and characterized via sequential fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH)-genomic in situ hybridization (GISH) and molecular markers. The results showed that SN19647 carried resistance to both powdery mildew and leaf rust. It contained 42 chromosomes with a pair of wheat chromosome 1B replaced by a pair of JS chromosomes from Th. ponticum. In addition to chromosomal substitution events, structural variation also occurred on wheat chromosomes 2A, 5A, 6B, and 7B. Based on marker analysis, 19 markers specific to the JS chromosome were obtained, of which seventeen markers belonged to homoeologous group one. These results indicated that SN19647 was a 1JS (1B) substitution line. Compared with the known 1JS (1D) substitution line CH10A5, it was found that 17 markers generated different specific bands to Th. ponticum, confirming the novelty of the 1JS chromosome in SN19647. Therefore, SN19647, resistant to powdery mildew and leaf rust, was a novel 1JS (1B) substitution line that can be used in wheat genetic improvement.

Abstract
Wheat powdery mildew, caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici, is a devastating disease that threatens yield and quality. Host resistance is considered the most effective and preferred means to control this disease. Wheat landrace Duanganmang (DGM) showed high resistance or near immunity to Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici mixture from Henan Province, China. DGM was crossed with highly susceptible Chinese wheat landrace Huixianhong (HXH) and cultivar 'Shimai 15' (SM15) to produce genetic populations. The resistance of DGM to Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici isolate E09 was shown to be controlled by a single dominant Mendelian factor, tentatively designated PmDGM. Marker analysis and 55K single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array scanning showed that this gene was positioned in the Pm5 interval (2.4 cM or 1.61 Mb) flanked by Xhenu099 and Xmp1158 in the Chinese Spring reference genome. Homology-based cloning and sequence analysis demonstrated that DGM has the identical NLR gene (Pm5e) and RXL gene reported in Fuzhuang 30 (FZ30), conferring and modifying powdery mildew resistance, respectively. However, based on the different reaction patterns to the Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici isolate B15 between DGM and FZ30, the authors speculate that DGM may have two tightly linked genes that could not be separated in the current mapping population, one of which is PmDGM and the other being Pm5e. Hence, this study provides a valuable resistance resource for improvement of powdery mildew resistance.
