- Abstract
Powdery mildew is a severe wheat disease that causes substantial yield losses in wheat production worldwide. The Chinese wheat landrace Changanhongmai (CAHM) exhibits high resistance to the physiological race E09 of powdery mildew. In this study, we characterized the powdery mildew resistance gene in CAHM, and developed molecular markers for wheat marker-assisted selection. To investigate the genetic characteristics of this resistant gene, we developed F1 plants, F2 generation population, and F2:3 families by crossing CAHM with SY225 (Shaanyou '225' as susceptible male parent). Genetic analysis demonstrated that all F1 plants were resistant to the disease, while the ratio of resistant to susceptible plants was 3: 1 in both the F2 population and F2:3 families, indicating that CAHM is inherited in a manner of a single dominant powdery mildew resistance gene, which was tentatively designated as PmCAHM. By using bulk segregation analysis, we constructed a genetic map encompassing Xgwm273, Xwmc626, Xgwm11, Xgwm18, Xgdm28, Xgpw7812, Xgpw5195, Xwmc694, and PmCAHM. Among these markers, Xgpw7812 and Xgpw5195 are flanking markers that are tightly linked to PmCAHM at a genetic distance of 2.5 cM and 8.4 cM, respectively. Furthermore, nullisomic-tetrasomic analysis revealed that PmCAHM is located on chromosome 1B. These results indicate that PmCAHM differs from the internationally recognized powdery mildew resistance genes in both location and source. In addition, a new germplasm/line NW1748 with stronger powdery mildew resistance and large grains was developed from the cross and backcross populations of Fengyou1718 (FY1718)/CAHM/5/FY 1718. Therefore, PmCAHM can serve as a novel powdery mildew resistance source for breeding of wheat by using NW1748 as the donor in the future.
