Performance of Solanum habrochaites LA1777 introgression line hybrids for marketable tomato fruit yield in Asia

Wild relatives of the cultivated tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) are major sources of new genetic diversity for tomato improvement. Introgression lines (IL) are near-isogenic lines homozygous for one or several mapped wild DNA fragments in a common recurrent parent. A set of ILs developed by Cornell University from Solanum habrochaites accession LA1777 and recurrent parent E6203 has been made publicly available through the Tomato Genetics Resource Center of the University of California-Davis. Our objective was to identify LA1777 introgressions with potential to increase the marketable fruit yield of tomato grown in the tropics. A subset of ILs were each crossed to CLN2498E (resistant to bacterial wilt and some begomoviruses) to create IL hybrids (ILH). ILH, IL recurrent parent E6203, CLN2498E, and CLN2498E × E6203 (Hchk) were evaluated in replicated trials in Thailand, India, and Taiwan during two dry seasons. Highly significant effects for marketable fruit yield were detected in Thailand and Taiwan. ILH heterozygous for S. habrochaites segments at the bottom of chromosome 1 yielded about 20% than the Hchk at Thailand and Taiwan. Our results agree with previous results from Cornell University researchers who found a segment of S. habrochaites DNA located between TG158 and TG27 associated with increased total fruit yield in previous trials conducted in upper state New York. Yield improvement due to this S. habrochaites introgression can occur over a wide range of environments.     

云南3种野生稻中抗白叶枯病基因的鉴定

白叶枯病是水稻生产上最重要的细菌性病害之一,培育抗病新品种是防治白叶枯病最经济有效的途径。然而,栽培稻来源的抗病基因数量有限,并且部分抗病基因的抗病谱窄。因此,从野生稻中发掘抗病基因,将有利于培育抗病谱广且抗病能力强的水稻新品种。本研究通过抗性鉴定和PCR分析,检测云南野生稻中的抗白叶枯病基因。结果表明,云南野生稻对2个代表性白叶枯病菌Y8和PXO99具有不同程度的抗性,疣粒野生稻甚至达到免疫的程度。功能标记检测结果显示,3种野生稻中均不含xa5、xa13和Xa21抗病基因,元江普通野生稻含Xa23和Xa3/Xa26基因或其同源基因,景洪普通野生稻中含Xa1、Xa3/Xa26和Xa27基因或同源基因,药用野生稻含Xa3/Xa26基因或同源基因,而疣粒野生稻含有Xa27抗性基因。本研究结果为进一步发掘和克隆云南野生稻中的抗白叶枯病新基因提供了理论参考。

来自野生二粒小麦IW3和IW10的两个白粉病基因的鉴定及SSR标记定位

野生二粒小麦(Triticum dicoccoides)是小麦抗病育种的重要资源库之一。来自以色列Mount Hermon的野生二粒小麦材料IW3 和IW10对我国小麦白粉病菌生理小种E09表现高抗。对硬粒小麦Langdon与IW3和IW10两个杂交组合F₂分离群体和F₃家系的遗传分析表明,IW3和IW10对小麦白粉菌E09的抗性均受显性单基因控制,暂被命名为MlIW3和MlIW10。采用BSA法和SSR标记分析,筛选到与抗白粉病基因MlIW3和MlIW10连锁的5个SSR标记,这两个基因均位于Xbarc84和Xwmc326之间,顺序为Xbarc84–4.6 cM–MlIW3–1.6 cM–Xwmc326和Xbarc84–6.6 cM–MlIW10–0.6 cM–Xwmc326。根据SSR分子标记的遗传图谱和在中国春的缺体—四体、双端体和缺失系的定位结果,这两个抗白粉病基因被定位在3BL染色体的末端。根据MlIW3和MlIW10的来源和分子标记定位结果,推断这两个基因可能是小麦抗白粉病基因Pm41或其等位基因或位于同一个基因簇中。

Wild relatives of pigeonpea as a source of resistance to the pod fly (Melanagromyza obtusa Malloch) and pod wasp (Tanaostigmodes cajaninae La Salle)

Pigeonpea [Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.] is an important legume crop in South Asia, East and southern Africa, and the Caribbean. Pod fly (Melanagromyza obtusa Malloch) and pod wasp (Tanaostigmodes cajaninae La Salle) are important constraints to increase the production and productivity of pigeonpea under subsistence farming conditions. Host plant-resistance can be used as an important component for the management of these pests, and therefore, we evaluated 28 accessions of wild relatives of pigeonpea for resistance to these pests. There were significant inter- and intra-species differences in the relative susceptibility to pod fly and pod wasp damage. Accessions belonging to Cajanus scarabaeoides (L.) Thouars, C. sericeus (Benth. ex Bak.) van der Maesen, Rhynchosia bracteata Benth. ex Bak., C. acutifolius (F.v. Muell.) van der Maesen, C. lineatus (W. & A.) van der Maesen, and C. albicans (W. & A.) van der Maesen showed resistance to pod fly damage, while those from C. platycarpus (Benth.) van der Maesen, C. cajanifolius (Haines) van der Maesen and R. aurea DC. were susceptible. For the pod wasp, some of the accessions from C. scarabaeoides, C. albicans, Flemingia stricta Roxb., and R. bracteata (Roxb.) Wight showed a resistant reaction, while ICPW 83 belonging to C. scarabaeoides showed a susceptible reaction. ICPW 141, ICPW 278, and ICPW 280 (C. scarabaeoides), ICPW 214 (R. bracteata), ICPW 14 (C. albicans), and ICPW 202 (F. stricta) showed resistance to both pod fly and pod wasp damage. There was considerable variation in accessions belonging to different species for their susceptibility to pod fly and pod wasp, which can be exploited to breed for resistance to these pests. There was a negative association between pod wasp and pod borer damage, and therefore, it is important to keep track of the relative susceptibility of pigeonpea genotypes to pod wasp, while breeding for resistance to pod borers.     

Diversity of native rice (Oryza Poaceae:) species of Costa Rica

We found several populations of wild Oryza species in the lowlands of Costa Rica. The plants showed extensive morphological variation, suggesting the presence of several species. In the morphologic study, 33 traits were scored for plants of all the species. A principal component analysis revealed the significant morphological separation of the different species. The analyses indicated that there are three species, O. grandi­glumis, O. latifolia and O. glumaepatula. Two putative hybrid types were found, both significantly differing in their morphology from the known species and intermediate at several traits. O. grandi­glumis is a new record for Costa Rican flora. Its main population is located in Caño Negro Wildlife Refuge, Los Chiles, Alajuela. O. latifolia is distributed throughout the lowlands of the country and the plants of the Atlantic slope are significantly bigger in general habit than those of the Guanacaste area. During this study a population of O. glumaepatula of hundreds of thousands of plants was discovered in the Medio Queso River wetland, Los Chiles, Alajuela. This population is the most important source of genes for cultivar's improvement from the primary gene pool of rice in Costa Rica. The small ligule and the wide flag leaf characteristic of the two CCDD species separated them from the AA diploid O. glumaepatula. Seed size, ligule size, number of branches in the panicle, plant height and sterile lemma length are all bigger in O. grandi­glumis, and influenced the second factor that separated the CCDD species in two discrete clusters. The species found offer great possibilities for the improvement of rice cultivars and they should be thoroughly studied and appropriately protected.
