Pm _SN15218 : A Potential New Powdery Mildew Resistance Gene on Wheat Chromosome 2AL.

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 F_2:3 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.

Serine/threonine kinase gene Stpk-V, a key member of powdery mildew resistance gene Pm21, confers powdery mildew resistance in wheat.

Project description:Powdery mildew resistance gene Pm21, located on the chromosome 6V short arm of Haynaldia villosa and transferred to wheat as a 6VS·6AL translocation (T6VS·6AL), confers durable and broad-spectrum resistance to wheat powdery mildew. Pm21 has become a key gene resource for powdery mildew resistance breeding all over the world. In China, 12 wheat varieties containing Pm21 have been planted on more than 3.4 million hectares since 2002. Pm21 has been intractable to molecular genetic mapping because the 6VS does not pair and recombine with the 6AS. Moreover, all known accessions of H. villosa are immune to powdery mildew fungus. Pm21 is still defined by cytogenetics as a locus. In the present study, a putative serine and threonine protein kinase gene Stpk-V was cloned and characterized with an integrative strategy of molecular and cytogenetic techniques. Stpk-V is located on the Pm21 locus. The results of a single cell transient expression assay showed that Stpk-V could decrease the haustorium index dramatically. After the Stpk-V was transformed into a susceptible wheat variety Yangmai158, the characterized transgenic plants showed high and broad-spectrum powdery mildew resistance similar to T6VS·6AL. Silencing of the Stpk-V by virus-induced gene silencing in both T6VS·6AL and H. villosa resulted in their increased susceptibility. Stpk-V could be induced by Bgt and exogenous H(2)O(2), but it also mediated the increase of endogenous H(2)O(2), leading to cell death and plant resistance when the plant was attacked by Bgt.

Introgression of Powdery Mildew Resistance Gene Pm56 on Rye Chromosome Arm 6RS Into Wheat.

Project description:Powdery mildew, caused by the fungus Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici, represents a yield constraint in many parts of the world. Here, the introduction of a resistance gene carried by the cereal rye cv. Qinling chromosome 6R was transferred into wheat in the form of spontaneous balanced translocation induced in plants doubly monosomic for chromosomes 6R and 6A. The translocation, along with other structural variants, was detected using in situ hybridization and genetic markers. The differential disease response of plants harboring various fragments of 6R indicated that a powdery mildew resistance gene(s) was present on both arms of rye chromosome 6R. Based on karyotyping, the short arm gene, designated Pm56, was mapped to the subtelomere region of the arm. The Robertsonian translocation 6AL⋅6RS can be exploited by wheat breeders as a novel resistance resource.

Wheat powdery mildew resistance: from gene identification to immunity deployment.

Project description:Powdery mildew is one of the most devastating diseases on wheat and is caused by the obligate biotrophic phytopathogen Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici (Bgt). Due to the complexity of the large genome of wheat and its close relatives, the identification of powdery mildew resistance genes had been hampered for a long time until recent progress in large-scale sequencing, genomics, and rapid gene isolation techniques. Here, we describe and summarize the current advances in wheat powdery mildew resistance, emphasizing the most recent discoveries about the identification of genes conferring powdery mildew resistance and the similarity, diversity and molecular function of those genes. Multilayered resistance to powdery mildew in wheat could be used for counteracting Bgt, including durable, broad spectrum but partial resistance, as well as race-specific and mostly complete resistance mediated by nucleotide-binding and leucine rich repeat domain (NLR) proteins. In addition to the above mentioned layers, manipulation of susceptibility (S) and negative regulator genes may represent another layer that can be used for durable and broad-spectrum resistance in wheat. We propose that it is promising to develop effective and durable strategies to combat powdery mildew in wheat by simultaneous deployment of multilayered immunity.

Large-scale mutational analysis of wheat powdery mildew resistance gene Pm21.

Project description: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.

Wheat powdery mildew resistance gene Pm13 encodes a mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein.

Project description:Wheat powdery mildew is one of the most destructive diseases threatening global wheat production. The wild relatives of wheat constitute rich sources of diversity for powdery mildew resistance. Here, we report the map-based cloning of the powdery mildew resistance gene Pm13 from the wild wheat species Aegilops longissima. Pm13 encodes a mixed lineage kinase domain-like (MLKL) protein that contains an N-terminal-domain of MLKL (MLKL_NTD) domain in its N-terminus and a C-terminal serine/threonine kinase (STK) domain. The resistance function of Pm13 is validated by mutagenesis, gene silencing, transgenic assay, and allelic association analyses. The development of introgression lines with significantly reduced chromosome segments of Ae. longissima encompassing Pm13 enables widespread deployment of this gene into wheat cultivars. The cloning of Pm13 may provide valuable insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying Pm13-mediated powdery mildew resistance and highlight the important roles of kinase fusion proteins (KFPs) in wheat immunity.

Characterization of a new splicing variant of powdery mildew resistance gene Pm4 in synthetic hexaploid wheat YAV249.

Project description: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.

A disulphide isomerase gene (PDI-V) from Haynaldia villosa contributes to powdery mildew resistance in common wheat.

Project description:In this study, we report the contribution of a PDI-like gene from wheat wild relative Haynaldia villosa in combating powdery mildew. PDI-V protein contains two conserved thioredoxin (TRX) active domains (a and a') and an inactive domain (b). PDI-V interacted with E3 ligase CMPG1-V protein, which is a positive regulator of powdery mildew response. PDI-V was mono-ubiquitinated by CMPG1-V without degradation being detected. PDI-V was located on H. villosa chromosome 5V and encoded for a protein located in the endoplasmic reticulum. Bgt infection in leaves of H. villosa induced PDI-V expression. Virus induced gene silencing of PDIs in a T. durum-H. villosa amphiploid compromised the resistance. Single cell transient over-expression of PDI-V or a truncated version containing the active TXR domain a decreased the haustorial index in moderately susceptible wheat cultivar Yangmai 158. Stable transgenic lines over-expressing PDI-V in Yangmai 158 displayed improved powdery mildew resistance at both the seedling and adult stages. By contrast over-expression of point-mutated PDI-V(C57A) did not increase the level of resistance in Yangmai 158. The above results indicate a pivotal role of PDI-V in powdery mildew resistance and showed that conserved TRX domain a is critical for its function.

Identification of a Pm4 Allele as a Powdery Mildew Resistance Gene in Wheat Line Xiaomaomai.

Project description:Powdery mildew, caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici (Bgt), is one of the most destructive foliar diseases of wheat. In this study, we combined the bulked segregant RNA sequencing (BSR-seq) and comparative genomics analysis to localize the powdery mildew resistance gene in Chinese landrace Xiaomaomai. Genetic analysis of F1 plants from a crossing of Xiaomaomai × Lumai23 and the derived F2 population suggests that a single recessive gene, designated as pmXMM, confers the resistance in this germplasm. A genetic linkage map was constructed using the newly developed SNP markers and pmXMM was mapped to the distal end of chromosome 2AL. The two flanking markers 2AL15 and 2AL34 were closely linked to pmXMM at the genetic distance of 3.9 cM and 1.4 cM, respectively. Using the diagnostic primers of Pm4, we confirmed that Xiaomaomai carries a Pm4 allele and the gene function was further validated by the virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS). In addition, we systematically analyzed pmXMM in comparison with the other Pm4 alleles. The results suggest that pmXMM is identical to Pm4d and Pm4e at sequence level. Pm4b is also not different from Pm4c according to their genome/amino acid sequences. Only a few nucleotide variances were detected between pmXMM and Pm4a/b, which indicate the haplotype variation of the Pm4 gene.

Molecular Cytogenetic Identification of a New Wheat-Rye 6R Addition Line and Physical Localization of Its Powdery Mildew Resistance Gene.

Project description: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.

In search of the relationship between the rye polyamine oxidase (PAO) gene and resistance to powdery mildew (PM).

Project description:Powdery mildew (PM), a common cereal disease in cultivated areas, including Europe and other temperate regions, is caused by the fungus Blumeria graminis. While PM is one of the most important wheat leaf diseases globally, rye is highly tolerant to PM. It has been reported that in barley infected with PM, polyamine oxidase (PAO) activity related to the production of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) has increased, which may promote defense against biotrophic or hemibiotrophic pathogens. The current study aimed to assess the relationship between the segregation of the polymorphic marker for rye PAO (ScPAO) and the level of PM infection in plants. The genetic mapping in two interline populations shows that ScPAO is located on chromosome 7R. Further analysis comparing ScPAO location to mapped wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) PAO duplicates suggests the ScPAO homology with TaPAO6 or TaPAO7. A possible association of ScPAO from 7R with PM resistance is demonstrated in the recombinant inbred lines (RIL)-L population phenotyped for PM infection. Finally, three novel QTLs for PM resistance on the 7R chromosome of rye are detected.
