Abstract
KEY MESSAGE Phenotypical, physiological and genetic characterization was carried out on the hybrid necrosis gene from Haynaldia villosa, and the related gene Ne-V was mapped to chromosome arm 2VL. Introducing genetic variation from wild relatives into common wheat through wide crosses is a vital strategy for enriching genetic diversity and promoting wheat breeding. However, hybrid necrosis, a genetic autoimmunity syndrome, often occurs in the offspring of interspecific or intraspecific crosses, restricting both the selection of hybrid parents and the pyramiding of beneficial genes. To utilize the germplasms of Haynaldia villosa (2n = 2x = 14, VV), we conducted wide hybridization between durum wheat (2n = 4x = 28, AABB) and multiple H. villosa accessions to synthesize the amphiploids (2n = 6x = 42, AABBVV). This study revealed that 61.5% of amphiploids derived from the above crosses exhibited hybrid necrosis, with some amphiploids even dying before reaching maturity. However, the initiation time and severity of necrosis varied dramatically among the progenies, suggesting that there were multiple genetic loci or multiple alleles in the same genetic locus conferring to hybrid necrosis in H. villosa accessions. Genetic analysis was performed on the F2 and derived F2:3 populations, which were constructed between amphiploid STH59-1 with normal leaves and amphiploid STH59-2 with necrotic leaves. A semidominant hybrid necrosis-related gene, Ne-V, was mapped to an 11.8-cM genetic interval on the long arm of chromosome 2V, representing a novel genetic locus identified in Triticum-related species. In addition, the hybrid necrosis was correlated with enhanced H2O2 accumulation and cell death, and it was influenced by the temperature and light. Our findings provide a foundation for cloning the Ne-V gene and exploring its molecular mechanism.

Abstract
KEY MESSAGE An LRR-RLK gene causing interspecific hybrid breakdown between Gossypium. anomalum and G. hirsutum was identified by deploying a map-based cloning strategy. The self-destructing symptoms of hybrid incompatibility in most cases are attributed to autoimmunity. The cloning of genes responsible for hybrid incompatibility in cotton is helpful to clarify the mechanisms underlying hybrid incompatibility and can break the barriers in distant hybridization. In this study, a temperature-dependent lethality was identified in CSSL11-9 (chromosome segment substitution line) with Gossypium anomalum chromosome segment on chromosome A11. Transcriptome analysis showed the differentially expressed genes related to autoimmune responses were highly enriched, suggesting that expression of CSSL11-9 plant lethal gene activated autoimmunity in the absence of any pathogen or external stimulus, inducing programmed cell death (PCD) and causing a lethal phenotype. The lethal phenotype was controlled by a pair of recessive genes and then fine mapped between JAAS3191-JAAS3050 interval, which covered 63.87 kb in G. hirsutum genome and 98.66 kb in G. anomalum. We demonstrated that an LRR-RLK gene designated as hybrid breakdown 1 (GoanoHBD1) was the causal gene underlying this locus for interspecific hybrid incompatibility between G. anomalum and G. hirsutum. Silencing this LRR-RLK gene could restore CSSL11-9 plants from a lethal to a normal phenotype. Our findings provide new insights into reproductive isolation and may benefit cotton breeding.

Abstract
Hybrid lethality is a type of reproductive isolation barrier observed in two developmental stages, hybrid embryos (hybrid seeds) and hybrid seedlings. Hybrid lethality has been reported in many plant species and limits distant hybridization breeding including interspecific and intergeneric hybridization, which increases genetic diversity and contributes to produce new germplasm for agricultural purposes. Recent studies have provided molecular and genetic evidence suggesting that underlying causes of hybrid lethality involve epistatic interaction of one or more loci, as hypothesized by the Bateson-Dobzhansky-Muller model, and effective ploidy or endosperm balance number. In this review, we focus on the similarities and differences between hybrid seed lethality and hybrid seedling lethality, as well as methods of recovering seed/seedling activity to circumvent hybrid lethality. Current knowledge summarized in our article will provides new insights into the mechanisms of hybrid lethality and effective methods for circumventing hybrid lethality.

Abstract
Reproductive isolation, including hybrid weakness, plays an important role in the formation of species. Hybrid weakness in Capsicum, the cessation of plant growth, is caused by two complementary dominant genes, A from C. chinense or C. frutescens and B from C. annuum. In the present study, we surveyed whether 94 C. annuum accessions had B or b alleles by crossing with C. chinense having the A allele. Of the 94 C. annuum accessions, five had the B allele, three of which were native to Latin America and two were native to Asia. When combined with previous studies, the percentage of B carriers was 41% in Japan, 13% in Asia excluding Japan, 6% in Latin America, and 0% in Europe and Africa. In addition, 48 accessions of C. annuum from various countries were subjected to SSR analysis. Clades with high percentages of B-carriers were formed in the phylogenetic trees. In the principal coordinate analysis, most B-carriers were localized in a single group, although the group also included b-carriers. Based on these results, we presumed that the B allele was acquired in some C. annuum lines in Latin America, and B-carriers were introduced to the world during the Age of Discovery, as along with the b-carriers.

Abstract
Disease lesion mimic (DLM) or necrotic mutants display necrotic lesions in the absence of pathogen infections. They can show improved resistance to some pathogens and their molecular dissection can contribute to revealing components of plant defense pathways. Although forward-genetics strategies to find genes causal to mutant phenotypes are available in crops, these strategies require the production of experimental cross populations, mutagenesis, or gene editing and are time- and resource-consuming or may have to deal with regulated plant materials. In this study, we described a collection of 34 DLM mutants in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) and applied a novel method called complementation by sequencing (CBS), which enables the identification of the gene responsible for a mutant phenotype given the availability of two or more chemically mutagenized individuals showing the same phenotype. Complementation by sequencing relies on the feasibility to obtain all induced mutations present in chemical mutants and on the low probability that different individuals share the same mutated genes. By CBS, we identified a cytochrome P450 CYP71P1 gene as responsible for orange blotch DLM mutants, including the historical barley nec3 locus. By comparative phylogenetic analysis we showed that CYP71P1 gene family emerged early in angiosperm evolution but has been recurrently lost in some lineages including Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. Complementation by sequencing is a straightforward cost-effective approach to clone genes controlling phenotypes in a chemically mutagenized collection. The TILLMore (TM) collection will be instrumental for understanding the molecular basis of DLM phenotypes and to contribute knowledge about mechanisms of host-pathogen interaction.

FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2022; 13:899206.

Abstract
Enhanced ovary abscission after pollination and hybrid seed lethality result in post-zygotic reproductive isolation in plant interspecific crosses. However, the connection between these barriers remains unclear. Here, we report that an imbalance in parental genomes or endosperm balance number (EBN) causes hybrid seed lethality and ovary abscission in both interspecific and intraspecific-interploidy crosses in the genus Nicotiana. Auxin treatment suppressed ovary abscission, but not hybrid seed lethality, in an interspecific cross between Nicotiana suaveolens and N. tabacum, suggesting that ovary abscission-related genes are located downstream of those involved in hybrid seed lethality. We performed interploidy crosses among N. suaveolens tetraploids, octoploids, and neopolyploids and revealed hybrid seed lethality and ovary abscission in interploid crosses. Furthermore, a higher maternal EBN than paternal EBN caused these barriers, as previously observed in N. suaveolens × N. tabacum crosses. Altogether, these results suggest that maternal excess of EBN causes hybrid seed lethality, which in turn leads to ovary abscission through the same mechanism in both interspecific and interploidy crosses.

Abstract
The NBS-LRR (NLR) gene family plays a pivotal role in regulating disease defense response in plants. Cucumber is one of the most important vegetable crops in the world, and various plant diseases, including powdery mildew (PM), cause severe losses in both cucumber productivity and quality annually. To characterize and understand the role of the CC-NBS-LRR(CNL) family of genes in disease defense response in cucumber plants, we performed bioinformatical analysis to characterize these genes systematically. We identified 33 members of the CNL gene family in cucumber plants, and they are distributed on each chromosome with chromosome 4 harboring the largest cluster of five different genes. The corresponding CNL family member varies in the number of amino acids and exons, molecular weight, theoretical isoelectric point (pI) and subcellular localization. Cis-acting element analysis of the CNL genes reveals the presence of multiple phytohormone, abiotic and biotic responsive elements in their promoters, suggesting that these genes might be responsive to plant hormones and stress. Phylogenetic and synteny analysis indicated that the CNL proteins are conserved evolutionarily in different plant species, and they can be divided into four subfamilies based on their conserved domains. MEME analysis and multiple sequence alignment showed that conserved motifs exist in the sequence of CNLs. Further DNA sequence analysis suggests that CsCNL genes might be subject to the regulation of different miRNAs upon PM infection. By mining available RNA-seq data followed by real-time quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR) analysis, we characterized expression patterns of the CNL genes, and found that those genes exhibit a temporospatial expression pattern, and their expression is also responsive to PM infection, ethylene, salicylic acid, and methyl jasmonate treatment in cucumber plants. Finally, the CNL genes targeted by miRNAs were predicted in cucumber plants. Our results in this study provided some basic information for further study of the functions of the CNL gene family in cucumber plants.

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.
