| Abstract: | A dominant powdery mildew resistance gene introduced from Triticum timopheevii in line 146-155-T of common wheat, Triticum aestivum, was located on chromosome 6B by monosomic analysis. Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and microsatellite analyses detected the presence of a T. timopheevii segment, translocated to chromosome 6B, with breakpoints between the loci Xpsr8/Xpsr964 on 6BS and Xpsr154/Xpsr546 on 6BL. The novel powdery mildew resistance gene, which has been designated Pm27, was shown to cosegregate with the microsatellite locus Xpsp3131, which is located on the introgressed T. timopheevii segment. The molecular data confirm the location of Pm27 on the translocated 6B chromosome. |
