Linkage of a RAPD marker with powdery mildew resistance <Emphasis Type="Italic">er-1</Emphasis> gene in <Emphasis Type="Italic">Pisum sativum</Emphasis> L.

The aim of this study was to investigate the inheritance of powdery mildew disease and to tag it with a DNA marker to utilize for the marker-assisted selection (MAS) breeding program. The powdery mildew resistant genotype Fallon ^er and susceptible genotype 11760-3 ^ER were selected from 177 genotypes by heavy infestation of germplasm with Erysiphe pisi through artificial inoculation The F₁ plants of the cross Fallon/11760-3 indicated the dominance of the susceptible allele, while F₂ plants segregated in 3: 1 ratio (susceptible: resistant) that fit for goodness of fitness by χ² (P > 0.07), indicating monogenic recessive inheritance for powdery mildew resistance in Pisum sativum. A novel RAPD marker OPB18 (5′-CCACAGCAGT-3′) was linked to the er-1 gene with 83% probability with a LOD score of 4.13, and was located at a distance of 11.2 cM from the er-1 gene.     

烟草白粉病抗性基因的遗传分析

大麦DNA导入小麦产生抗白粉病变异的遗传研究

本研究将抗白粉病的大麦DNA通过花粉管途径直接导入感病的小麦品种花76中,后代出现13株抗白粉病变异株。其中5株在以后的世代中抗性稳定,另8株则继续分离。第2带分离株系的抗病株形成的第3代株系（或株行）中,抗性有分离的株行与无分离的株行比例为1.9:1,而分离株行内抗病株与不抗病株之比为3.35:1。抗性稳定株系与感病亲本杂交,F1表现高抗病,再与感病亲本回交,后代抗感病株比例为1:1,自交F2的比例为2.8:1。说明所获得的抗白粉病性受一对完全显性基因控制,抗病为显性。与已知抗白粉病基因的比较表明,这个抗病基因可能是来自大麦的一个新基因。13 Variant plants with immunity and high-resistance to powdery mildew were found in D1 generation from introducing resistant barley DNA into susceptible wheat cultivar, through pollen tube pathway after self pollination.Of the variants, 5 plants for the resistance had been stable and the other 8 plants segregated insuccessive generation.The ratio of segregating and stable plant-rows was 1.9:1 in D3 plant-rows derived from resistant plants of segregating D2-lines,and the ratio of resistant plants and susceptible plants was 3.35:1 among the segregating D3 plant-rows.The F1 -plants from crosses between stable resistant variants and susceptible parents were higgh resistant to powdery mildew.The ratio of resistant and susceptible plants was 1:1 in progenies of backcross of the F1 and susceptible parents, and this ratio was 2.8:1 in the F2 generation from the F1 selfing. Thus it can be seen that the resistance obtained is camtrolled by a pair of genes, the resistance is dominant. The results in comparison with known powdery mildew resistance genes in wheat indicated that the resistant gene obtained would be a new one from barley.     

普通小麦99-2439 中的白粉病抗性遗传

普通冬小麦品系99-2439在郑州连续4年对田间白粉菌(Blumeria graminis sp. tritici)表现高抗,但其抗性基因来源不清。通过染色体C-分带和1RS染色体特异性SCAR标记鉴定, 表明它是一个小麦-黑麦(Triticum aestivum - Secale cereale)1BL/1RS异易位系。通过对中国春×99-2439杂交F2代分离群 体抗性鉴定和1RS染色体臂检测结果分析, 证明该抗病基因不在1RS染色体臂上。用单孢小麦白粉菌分离株对其抗性遗传进行研究, 结果表明, 99-2439的白粉病抗性由一对小种专化、隐性抗病基因控制。由于携带Pm5a的Hope/8Cc对中国的21个小麦白粉菌分离菌株均高度感病, 而99-2439高抗混和白粉菌和5个单孢分离菌株, 所以, 99-2439所携带的抗白粉病基因不同于Pm5a。     

兼抗抗白粉病和黄矮病小麦育种材料的创造与鉴定

白粉病和黄矮病是小麦生产上的重要病害,近几年来这两种病害经常在我国一些小麦产区同时发生。为解决该问题,本研究通过杂交、回交方法将抗黄矮病的Bdv2基因（源自于YW642）和抗白粉病的Pm21基因（源自于CB037）聚合在一起,育成了兼抗黄矮病和白粉病的小麦新材料。通过田间抗病性鉴定与分子标记辅助选择相结合,得到聚合了Bdv2基因和Pm21基因的BC1代小麦22株,F2代小麦51株。农艺性状调查显示,这些含Pm21和Bdv2基因的双抗白粉病和黄矮病小麦新材料的农艺性状优于感病植株和原先的亲本,可以在小麦白粉病和黄矮病兼性抗病育种中作为优异种质资源加以利用。     

普通小麦99-2439中的白粉病抗性遗传

普通冬小麦品系99-2439在郑州连续4年对田间白粉菌(Blumeria graminis sp.tritici)表现高抗,但其抗性基因来源不清.通过染色体C-分带和IRS染色体特异性SCAR标记鉴定,表明它是一个小麦-黑麦(Triticum aestivum-Secale cereale)lBL/1RS异易位系.通过对中国春×99-2439杂交F2代分离群体抗性鉴定和1RS染色体臂检测结果分析,证明该抗病基因不在1RS染色体臂上.用单孢小麦白粉菌分离株对其抗性遗传进行研究,结果表明,99-2439的白粉病抗性由一对小种专化、隐性抗病基因控制.由于携带Pm5a的Hope/8Cc对中国的21个小麦白粉菌分离菌株均高度感病,而99-2439高抗混和白粉菌和5个单孢分离菌株,所以,99-2439所携带的抗白粉病基因不同于Pm5a.     

籽用美洲南瓜叶片对白粉病菌的抗逆生理响应

以籽用美洲南瓜(Cucurbita pepo L.)白粉病抗病品系F2和感病品系M3为试材,在人工气候箱内接种白粉病生理小种2US孢子悬浮液,考察在接种白粉病菌后南瓜幼苗植株与白粉病菌的互作、叶片活性氧代谢及保护酶活性的变化,探讨南瓜抵御白粉病的生理机制。结果表明：(1)与感病品系M3相比,接种白粉病菌后,抗病品系F2叶片上病原菌发育缓慢,较难侵染叶片。(2)抗病品系F2在感病初期叶片H₂O₂、O₂^-·含量迅速升高后逐渐下降,而感病品系在感病初期H₂O₂、O₂^-·含量上升缓慢,在达最大值后始终保持较高水平,且感病品系叶片MDA含量始终高于抗病品系;组织化学染色分析发现,抗病品系叶片着色比感病品系快,之后着色面积有所减少并趋于较低水平。(3)抗病品系F2和感病品系M3叶片抗氧化酶CAT、SOD、POD活性及PAL、PPO活性在接种白粉病菌后均显著增加,但抗病品系的活性及其增幅均高于感病品系。研究发现,籽用美洲南瓜抗病品系叶片上白粉病菌发育缓慢,较难受到侵染,生成菌丝体后叶片上粉状斑点较小;抗病品系在被白粉病菌侵染初期依靠活性氧的增加抵御病原菌的入侵,随着活性氧含量增加抗病品系通过迅速增加自身抗氧化酶活性来防止氧化胁迫;与感病品系相比,抗病品系在受病原菌侵染后能迅速增加PAL、PPO活性以抵御病原菌侵染。     

TaRPP13-3, a CC-NBS-LRR-like gene located on chr 7D,promotes disease resistance to wheat powdery mildew in Brock

Disease resistance (R) gene, RPP13, plays an important role in the resistance of plants to pathogen infections; its function in resistance of wheat to powdery mildew remains unknown. In this study, a RNA-Seq technique was used to monitor expression of genes in susceptible wheat ‘Jing411’ and resistant near-isogenic line ‘BJ-1’ in response to powdery mildew infection. Overall, 413 differential expression genes were observed and identified as involved in disease resistance. RPP13 homologous gene on wheat chromosome 7D was preliminarily identified using the wheat 660K SNP chip. RPP13 was highly expressed in ‘BJ-1’ and encodes 1,027 amino acids, including CC, NB and LRR domain, termed TaRPP13-3. After inoculation with powdery mildew, expression of TaRPP13-3 in resistant wheat changed with time, but average expression was higher when compared to susceptible variety, thus indicating that TaRPP13-3 is involved in resistance to powdery mildew. Virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) was used to inhibit expression of TaRPP13-3 in resistant parent ‘Brock’. Results indicated that silencing of TaRPP13-3 led to decreased disease resistance in ‘Brock’. Overall results of this study indicate that TaRPP13-3 gene is involved in the defence response of wheat to powdery mildew and plays a positive role in wheat powdery mildew interactions.     

Localization of a novel recessive powdery mildew resistance gene from common wheat line RD30 in the terminal region of chromosome 7AL

Segregation analysis of resistance to powdery mildew in a F₂ progeny from the cross Chinese Spring (CS) × TA2682c revealed the inheritance of a dominant and a recessive powdery mildew resistance gene. Selfing of susceptible F₂ individuals allowed the establishment of a mapping population segregating exclusively for the recessive resistance gene. The extracted resistant derivative showing full resistance to each of 11 wheat powdery mildew isolates was designated RD30. Amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) analysis of bulked segregants from F₃s showing the homozygous susceptible and resistant phenotypes revealed an AFLP marker that was associated with the recessive resistance gene in repulsion phase. Following the assignment of this AFLP marker to wheat chromosome 7A by means of CS nullitetrasomics, an inspection of simple sequence repeat (SSR) loci evenly spaced along chromosome 7A showed that the recessive resistance gene maps to the distal region of chromosome 7AL. On the basis of its close linkage to the Pm1 locus, as inferred from connecting partial genetic maps of 7AL of populations CS × TA2682c and CS × Virest (Pm1e), and its unique disease response pattern, the recessive resistance gene in RD30 was considered to be novel and tentatively designated mlRD30.Communicated by C.

Microsatellite markers for powdery mildew resistance in pea (Pisum sativum L.)

Powdery mildew is a common disease of field pea, Pisum sativum L., and is caused by the ascomycete fungus Erysiphe pisi. It can cause severe damage in areas where pea is cultivated. Today breeders want to develop new pea lines that are resistant to the disease. To make the breeding process more efficient, it is desirable to find genetic markers for use in a marker-assisted selection (MAS) strategy. In this study, microsatellites (SSR) were used to find markers linked to powdery mildew resistance. The resistant pea cultivar '955180' and the susceptible pea cultivar 'Majoret' were crossed and F2 plants were screened with SSR markers, using bulked segregant analysis. A total of 315 SSR markers were screened out of which five showed linkage to the powdery mildew resistance gene. No single marker was considered optimal for inclusion in a MAS program. Instead, two of the markers can be used in combination, which would result in only 1.6% incorrectly identified plants. Thus SSR markers can be successfully used in marker-assisted selection for powdery mildew resistance breeding in pea.     

小麦白粉病抗性基因的聚合及其分子标记辅助选择

采用了在早代进行抗性鉴定、淘汰感病株、保留抗病株继续种植、较晚世代（F4代）进行抗性鉴定结合分子标记辅助选择的策略,提高了选到聚合抗性植株的效率。利用与Pm2、Pm4α、Pm8、Pm21紧密连锁或共分离的RFLP标记和PCR标记（SCAR标记）,对含有这些基因的优良品系间配制的杂交组合的F4代进行了分子标记辅助育种选择,并结合抗性鉴定,筛选到14株Pm4α Pm2I的植株,16株Pm2 Pm4α的植株,6株Pm8 Pm21的植株。应该引起注意的是,Pm2 Pm4α对混合白粉病菌的抗性达到高抗至免疫水平,而Pm2和Pm4α单独存在时抗性较差,表明聚合抗病基因植株的抗性提高了,为培育具有持久性抗性的品系或品种提供了新思路,它在实践和理论研究上都将具有重要意义。     

Identification and mapping of a new powdery mildew resistance gene on chromosome 6D of common wheat

Powdery mildew, caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici, is one of the most serious wheat diseases. The rapid evolution of the pathogen's virulence, due to the heavy use of resistance genes, necessitates the expansion of resistance gene diversity. The common wheat line D57 is highly resistant to powdery mildew. A genetic analysis using an F(2) population derived from the cross of D57 with the susceptible cultivar Yangmai 158 and the derived F(2:3) lines indicated that D57 carries two dominant powdery mildew resistance genes. Based on mapping information of polymorphic markers identified by bulk segregant analysis, these two genes were assigned to chromosomes 5DS and 6DS. Using the F(2:3) lines that segregated in a single-gene mode, closely linked PCR-based markers were identified for both genes, and their chromosome assignments were confirmed through linkage mapping. The gene on chromosome 5DS was flanked by Xgwm205 and Xmag6176, with a genetic distance of 8.3 cM and 2.8 cM, respectively. This gene was 3.3 cM from a locus mapped by the STS marker MAG6137, converted from the RFLP marker BCD1871, which was 3.5 cM from Pm2. An evaluation with 15 pathogen isolates indicated that this gene and Pm2 were similar in their resistance spectra. The gene on chromosome 6DS was flanked by co-segregating Xcfd80 and Xmag6139 on one side and Xmag6140 on the other, with a genetic distance of 0.7 cM and 2.7 cM, respectively. This is the first powdery mildew resistance gene identified on chromosome 6DS, and plants that carried this gene were highly resistant to all of the 15 tested pathogen isolates. This gene was designated Pm45. The new resistance gene in D57 could easily be transferred to elite cultivars due to its common wheat origin and the availability of closely linked molecular markers.     

加拿大豌豆品种（系）抗白粉病表型和基因型鉴定

对36个引自加拿大的豌豆品种(系)进行抗白粉病表型和标记基因型鉴定,明确了豌豆品种Cooper和Tara白粉病抗性等位基因。苗期接种了2个不同地理来源的豌豆白粉病菌分离物,32个品种(系)对2个分离物均表现为免疫;品系MP1818-2对云南白粉菌分离物EPYN免疫,但对北京分离物EPBJ感病;其余3个品种对2个分离物均感病。4个与豌豆抗白粉病基因er1连锁的SCAR标记将36个豌豆品种(系)区分为5个标记基因型。与野生型PsMLO1基因序列比较发现,豌豆品种Cooper和Tara的PsMLO1候选基因均在680 bp处发生C变G的单核苷酸突变。     

抗白粉病基因PmCH1302的遗传分析及染色体定位

CH1302是以来源于中间偃麦草的八倍体小偃麦TAI7047为桥梁亲本选育的高抗白粉病的小麦新品系,对白粉菌多个流行小种均表现出良好抗性。为了解其抗白粉病基因来源及其在染色体上的位置,对绵阳11×CH1302的F_1、F_2及F_(2∶3)家系进行了遗传分析,推断其抗白粉病基因可能来源于中间偃麦草,暂将其命名为PmCH1302。利用i Select 90K SNP芯片对抗、感病池进行扫描,发现位于2AL染色体上的多态性位点最多,为313个,占全部多态性位点的9.79%,且集中于2AL染色体100~105 c M和150~155 cM两个区域附近。在上述位点选取SSR标记,筛选出3对与Pm CH1302连锁的分子标记,Xwmc522、Xgwm356和Xgwm526,其中Xgwm356和Xgwm526位于Pm CH1302两侧,连锁距离分别为3.1 c M和7.8 cM。利用遗传图谱以及中国春缺体、双端体将PmCH1302定位于小麦2AL染色体上。进一步与位于2AL上的Pm4、Pm50比较发现,PmCH1302可能是位于2AL上的一个新基因或等位基因。     

Genetic linkage map of melon (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Cucumis melo</Emphasis> L.) and localization of a major QTL for powdery mildew resistance

Powdery mildew caused by Podosphaera xanthii has become a major problem in melon since it occurs all year round irrespective of the growing system. The TGR-1551 melon genotype was found to be resistant to several melon diseases, among them powdery mildew. However, the corresponding resistance genes have been never mapped. We constructed an integrated genetic linkage map using an F2 population derived from a cross between the multi-resistant genotype TGR-1551 and the susceptible Spanish cultivar ‘Bola de Oro’. The map spans 1,284.9 cM, with an average distance of 3.6 cM among markers, and consists of 354 loci (188 AFLP, 39 RAPD, 111 SSR, 14 SCAR/CAPS/dCAPS, and two phenotypic traits) distributed in 14 linkage groups. QTL analysis identified one major QTL (Pm-R) on LG V for resistance to races 1, 2, and 5 of powdery mildew. The PM4-CAPS marker is closely linked to the Pm-R QTL at a genetic distance of 1.9 cM, and the PM3-CAPS marker is located within the support interval of this QTL. These codominant markers, together with the map information reported here, could be used for melon breeding, and particularly for genotyping selection of resistance to powdery mildew in this vegetable crop species.     

QTLs for tomato powdery mildew resistance (Oidium lycopersici) in Lycopersicon parviflorum G1.1601 co-localize with two qualitative powdery mildew resistance genes

Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) is susceptible to the powdery mildew Oidium lycopersici, but several wild relatives such as Lycopersicon parviflorum G1.1601 are completely resistant. An F2 population from a cross of Lycopersicon esculentum cv. Moneymaker x Lycopersicon parviflorum G1.1601 was used to map the O. lycopersici resistance by using amplified fragment length polymorphism markers. The resistance was controlled by three quantitative trait loci (QTLs). Ol-qtl1 is on chromosome 6 in the same region as the Ol-1 locus, which is involved in a hypersensitive resistance response to O. lycopersici. Ol-qtl2 and Ol-qtl3 are located on chromosome 12, separated by 25 cM, in the vicinity of the Lv locus conferring resistance to another powdery mildew species, Leveillula taurica. The three QTLs, jointly explaining 68% of the phenotypic variation, were confirmed by testing F3 progenies. A set of polymerase chain reaction-based cleaved amplified polymorphic sequence and sequence characterized amplified region markers was generated for efficient monitoring of the target QTL genomic regions in marker assisted selection. The possible relationship between genes underlying major and partial resistance for tomato powdery mildew is discussed.     

来自西尔斯山羊草的抗小麦白粉病基因Pm57抗性丧失突变体的筛选与鉴定

小麦近缘种属来源的抗白粉病基因是培育小麦抗病品种,防治白粉病危害的最重要基因来源。Pm57是位于西尔斯山羊草2S^s#l染色体长臂上的一个外源基因,对小麦白粉病具有苗期和成株期广谱抗性。为了创制Pm57白粉病抗性丧失突变体,利用基于基因突变体的植物抗病基因克隆新兴技术分离Pm57基因,选用0.625%的甲基磺酸乙酯(EMS)对1万粒小麦-西尔斯山羊草Pm57易位系89(5)69种子进行了诱变处理,M1大田密播种植,收获了1598个M2可育株系。初步对其中300个M2株系进行苗期白粉病抗性接种鉴定,并利用2个Pm57基因特异分子标记X2L4g9P4/HaeⅢ和X284274及小麦全国区试品系DUS测试所用的42对SSR核心引物对Pm57抗性丧失突变体进行鉴定,筛选出来自27个M2株系的真实抗性丧失突变体70个,Pm57基因抗性丧失突变体频率达到9.0%。本研究所获得的白粉病抗性丧失突变体为Pm57基因的后续克隆与抗白粉病分子机理研究提供了重要的材料基础。     

Genetic analysis and molecular mapping of a new powdery mildew resistant gene Pm46 in common wheat

Powdery mildew (PM), caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici (Bgt), has become a serious disease and caused severe yield losses in the wheat production worldwide. Resistance gene(s) in wheat cultivars can be quickly overcome by newly evolved pathogen races when these genes are employed for long time or in a large area. It is urgent to search for new sources of resistance to be used in wheat breeding. Tabasco is a German resistant cultivar and a new source of resistance gene(s) to PM. An F(2) population was developed from a cross between Tabasco and a Chinese susceptible cultivar Ningnuo 1. Infection types in 472 F(2) plants and 436 F(2-3) families were evaluated by inoculating plants with isolate Bgt19. Results showed that a single dominant gene, designed Pm46, controlled powdery mildew resistance in Tabasco. This gene was located to the short arm of chromosome 5D (5DS) and flanked by simple sequence repeat markers Xgwm205 and Xcfd81 at 18.9?cM apart. Because another resistance gene Pm2 was also located on 5DS, 15 Bgt isolates were used to inoculate Tabasco and Ulka/8*Cc (Pm2 carrier). The results showed that Tabasco was highly resistant to all of the 15 isolates tested, while Ulka/8*Cc was susceptible to 4 of the isolates, suggesting that Tabasco may carry resistant gene(s) different from Pm2 gene in Ulka/8*Cc. To test the allelism between Pm46 and Pm2, an F(2) population between Tabasco and Ulka/8*Cc was developed. Isolate Bgt2, avirulent to both parents, was used to evaluate the F(2) population and two susceptible plants were identified from 536 progenies with F(2) plants. This result indicated that Pm46 is not allelic to Pm2. Therefore, Pm46 is a new gene for PM resistance identified in this study.     

Resistance of cultivars and breeding lines of spring wheat to Fusarium culmorum and powdery mildew

Twelve Polish spring wheat cultivars and 18 spring wheat accessions from CIMMYT, Mexico, were examined for resistance to a highly pathogenic Fusarium culmorum strain KF846 and powdery mildew in 5-year field experiments. Resistant wheat cultivars (Sumai 3 and Frontana) served as controls. The mean percentage of Fusarium-damaged kernels (% FDK) for 5 years was lower in CIMMYT accessions (16.7%) than in Polish spring cultivars (28.3%). In all Polish spring cultivars, % FDK was higher than in the control cultivars Sumai 3 and Frontana (12-20%). The mean disease score (on a scale of 1-9) for powdery mildew (natural infection) for all examined cultivars and lines ranged from 0 to 7 and in the Polish spring cultivars was significantly lower (0-5). Cultivars Eta, Henika, Ismena, Jasna and Olimpia were found to be the least susceptible to powdery mildew in field experiments. The laboratory host-pathogen tests with Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici isolates showed that only two cultivars were characterized by identical resistance patterns as the standard differential lines with documented resistance genes. Cultivar Alkora had the gene Pm3d, and Henika had Pm5. The gene Pm3d was identified in cultivars Jasna and Eta in combination with another unknown gene/genes. Cultivars Santa and Torka had the gene Pm5 in combination with another unknown gene/genes. Four cultivars: Banti, Ismena, Olimpia and Sigma, showed resistance to all mildew isolates employed in a laboratory test. The accession IPG-SW-14 was the least susceptible to both pathogens (F. culmorum and powdery mildew) in all 5 years of experiments. This line is the best candidate for deriving new cultivars with improved resistance to fungal diseases.     

Molecular mapping of the novel powdery mildew resistance gene <Emphasis Type="Italic">Pm36</Emphasis> introgressed from <Emphasis Type="Italic">Triticum turgidum</Emphasis> var. <Emphasis Type="Italic">dicoccoides</Emphasis> in durum wheat

Powdery mildew, caused by Blumeria graminis f.sp. tritici, is one of the most important wheat diseases in many regions of the world. Triticum turgidum var. dicoccoides (2n=4x=AABB), the progenitor of cultivated wheats, shows particular promises as a donor of useful genetic variation for several traits, including disease resistances. The wild emmer accession MG29896, resistant to powdery mildew, was backcrossed to the susceptible durum wheat cultivar Latino, and a set of backcross inbred lines (BC(5)F(5)) was produced. Genetic analysis of F(3) populations from two resistant introgression lines (5BIL-29 x Latino and 5BIL-42 x Latino) indicated that the powdery mildew resistance is controlled by a single dominant gene. Molecular markers and the bulked segregant analysis were used to characterize and map the powdery mildew resistance. Five AFLP markers (XP43M32((250)), XP46M31((410)), XP41M37((100)), XP41M39((250)), XP39M32((120))), three genomic SSR markers (Xcfd07, Xwmc75, Xgwm408) and one EST-derived SSR marker (BJ261635) were found to be linked to the resistance gene in 5BIL-29 and only the BJ261635 marker in 5BIL-42. By means of Chinese Spring nullisomic-tetrasomic, ditelosomic and deletion lines, the polymorphic markers and the resistance gene were assigned to chromosome bin 5BL6-0.29-0.76. These results indicated that the two lines had the same resistance gene and that the introgressed dicoccoides chromosome segment was longer (35.5 cM) in 5BIL-29 than that introgressed in 5BIL-42 (less than 1.5 cM). As no powdery mildew resistance gene has been reported on chromosome arm 5BL, the novel resistance gene derived from var. dicoccoides was designated Pm36. The 244 bp allele of BJ261635 in 5BIL-42 can be used for marker-assisted selection during the wheat resistance breeding process for facilitating gene pyramiding.
