水稻条纹病毒RNA4基因间隔区序列分析——混合侵染及基因组变异证据

克隆和测定了我国水稻条纹病毒（RSV）22个分离物 RNA4基因间隔区（Intergenic region,IR）序列,序列比较结果表明,我国RSV RNA4 IR在长度上存在634bp、654bp及732bp 3种不同的类型,其中3种不同类型的序列在云南省均有存在,而在其它省份仅存在654bp 类型的序列,云南省还存在不同片段类型序列在同一分离物中混合侵染的现象。序列内部具有两个重要的结构特征,一是具有插入序列;二是有两处反向重复序列,可形成两个明显的发夹结构,其中一个序列比较保守,形成的发夹结构稳定;但另一个发夹结构由于碱基变异导致其稳定性在各个分离物中差异较大。本论文还讨论了插入片段特性、不稳定的发夹结构的形成最低自由能及病毒致病性分化的关系。

小麦背景中来自华山新麦草的抗条锈病基因的遗传学分析和分子标记

H9020—17—5是一个通过杂交和回交选育的普通小麦—华山新麦草易位系,接种鉴定表明其对条锈病具有优良抗性。遗传学分析证明易位系H9020—17—5的抗条锈性是由单基因控制的显性性状,抗性基因来自于华山新麦草,暂定名为YrHua。为了标记这个来自华山新麦草的抗条锈病基因,利用H9020—17—5与感病小麦品种铭贤169杂交,建立了F2分离群体。应用81对AFLP引物对119个经条锈菌生理小种CY30接种鉴定的F2单株进行了分析,结果得到两个与YrHua基因连锁的AFLP标记PM14(301)和PM42(249),遗传距离分别为5．4cM和2．7cM,并分别位于目标基因的两侧。将标记片段克隆、测序后,根据序列信息和酶切位点多态性设计特异性引物,将AFLP标记PM14(301)转换成了简单的PCR标记。研究结果为标记辅助育种提供了分子选择工具,同时也为进一步精细定位和图位克隆YrHua基因奠定了基础。     

小麦条锈菌胞间菌丝的超微结构和细胞化学研究

本文应用电镜技术和细胞化学方法,对小麦条锈菌寄主胞间菌丝的超微结构进行了研究。观察发现:小麦条锈菌胞间菌丝有两种类型,即具隔膜菌丝和无隔膜菌丝。在胞间菌丝中,多核现象极为普遍。常规染色和细胞化学染色结果表明:胞间菌丝的细胞壁由四层组成,隔膜由三层构成,细胞壁的内层与隔膜的外层相连,细胞壁和隔膜中含有蛋白质和多糖物质。隔膜的发育可分三个阶段,即隔膜突的形成,隔膜壁的延伸和隔膜孔结构的形成。本研究中还观察到胞间菌丝间的融合现象。本文的研究结果表明:小麦条锈菌胞间菌丝的一些特征显然不同于其它锈菌。     

Genetics of adult plant stripe rust resistance in CSP44, a selection from Australian wheat

Wheat line CSP44, a selection from an Australian bread wheat cultivar Condor, has shown resistance to stripe rust in India since the last twenty years. Seedlings and adult plants of CSP44 showed susceptible infection types against stripe rust race 46S119 but displayed average terminal disease severity of 2.67 on adult plants against this race as compared to 70.33 of susceptible Indian cultivar, WL711. This suggests the presence of nonhypersensitive adult plant stripe rust resistance in the line CSP44. The evaluation of F₁, F₂ and F₃ generations and F₆ SSD families from the cross of CSP44 with susceptible wheat cultivar WL711 for stripe rust severity indicated that the resistance in CSP44 is based on two genes showing additive effect. One of these two genes isYr18 and the second gene is not yet described.     

Mapping genes for resistance to barley stripe rust (Puccinia striiformis f. sp. hordei)

Two genes conferring resistance to the barley stripe rust found in Mexico and South America, previously identified as race 24, were mapped to the M arms of barley chromosomes 7 and 4 in a doubled haploid population using molecular markers and the quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping approach. The resistance gene on chromosome 7 had a major effect, accounting for 57% of the variation in disease severity. The resistance gene on chromosome 4 had a minor effect, accounting for 10% of the variation in trait expression. Two pairs of restriction fragment length polymorphism markers are being used to introgress the resistance genes to North American spring barley using molecular marker-assisted backcrossing.Ore.

Molecular markers for tracking the origin and worldwide distribution of invasive strains of Puccinia striiformis

Investigating the origin and dispersal pathways is instrumental to mitigate threats and economic and environmental consequences of invasive crop pathogens. In the case of Puccinia striiformis causing yellow rust on wheat, a number of economically important invasions have been reported, e.g., the spreading of two aggressive and high temperature adapted strains to three continents since 2000. The combination of sequence‐characterized amplified region (SCAR) markers, which were developed from two specific AFLP fragments, differentiated the two invasive strains, PstS1 and PstS2 from all other P. striiformis strains investigated at a worldwide level. The application of the SCAR markers on 566 isolates showed that PstS1 was present in East Africa in the early 1980s and then detected in the Americas in 2000 and in Australia in 2002. PstS2 which evolved from PstS1 became widespread in the Middle East and Central Asia. In 2000, PstS2 was detected in Europe, where it never became prevalent. Additional SSR genotyping and virulence phenotyping revealed 10 and six variants, respectively, within PstS1 and PstS2, demonstrating the evolutionary potential of the pathogen. Overall, the results suggested East Africa as the most plausible origin of the two invasive strains. The SCAR markers developed in the present study provide a rapid, inexpensive, and efficient tool to track the distribution of P. striiformis invasive strains, PstS1 and PstS2.     

Identification of additional sources of resistance to Puccinia striiformis f. sp. hordei (PSH) in a collection of barley genotypes adapted to the high input condition

A total of 336 barley genotypes consisting of released cultivars, advanced lines, differentials and local landraces from the ICARDA barley breeding programme were screened for seedling and adult‐plant resistances to barley stripe rust pathogen (Puccinia striiformis f. sp. hordei [PSH]). Seedling resistance tests were undertaken at Shimla, India by inoculating 336 barley genotypes with five prevalent PSH races [Q (5S0), 24 (0S0‐1), 57 (0S0), M (1S0) and G (4S0)] in India. Barley genotypes were also evaluated at the adult‐plant stage for stripe rust resistance at Durgapura (Rajasthan, India) in 2013 and 2014, and at Karnal (Haryana, India) in 2014 under artificial PSH infection in fields, using a mixture of the five races. Twelve barley genotypes (ARAMIR/COSSACK, Astrix, C8806, C9430, CLE 202, Gold, Gull, Isaria, Lechtaler, Piroline, Stirling, and Trumpf) were resistant to all five PSH races at the seedling and adult‐plant stages. Two of these genotypes, Astrix and Trumpf, were part of international differentials and reveal that five races were avirulent to genes Rps4 (yr4), rpsAst, rpsTr1 and rpsTr2. These genes were highly effective against PSH races prevalent in India. The virulence/avirulence formula reported in this study helped to determine the effectiveness of PSH resistance genes against Indian races. Forty‐five genotypes showed adult‐stage plant resistance (APR) in the field. The identified PSH resistant genotypes may possess novel resistance genes and might serve as potential donors of PSH resistance at seedling and APR in the future. Further research is needed to determine the nature of resistance genes through allelic studies and mapping of these genes.
