Mapping of powdery mildew resistance genes in a newly determined accession of Hordeum vulgare ssp. spontaneum
Annals of Applied Biology 156 (2), 157-165
Abstract: The accession PI466197 of wild barley (Hordeum vulgare ssp. spontaneum) with a newly identified resistance to powdery mildew caused by Blumeria graminis f.sp. hordei was studied with the aim to localise the genes determining resistance on a barley genetic map using DNA markers. Molecular analysis was performed in the F₂ population of the cross between the winter variety 'Tiffany' and the resistant accession PI466197, consisting of 113 plants. DNA markers, 17 simple sequence repeats (SSRs), four sequence-tagged sites (STSs) and one cleaved amplified polymorphic sequence (CAPS) marker developed from the Mla locus sequence were used for genetic mapping and a two-locus model of resistance was shown. One of the resistance genes originating from H. vulgare ssp. spontaneum PI466197 was localised between the markers RGH1aE1 and Bmac0213 on the short arm of chromosome 1H, which is the position consistent with the Mla locus. The other gene was proven to be highly significantly linked with GBMS247, Bmac0134 and MWG878 on the short arm of chromosome 2H. The flanking markers were Bmac0134 and MWG878, assigned 4 and 8 cM from the resistance gene, respectively. Until now, no gene conferring powdery mildew resistance originating from H. vulgare has been located on the short arm of barley chromosome 2H.
