Virulence of Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici Populations in Morocco

The incidence and severity of powdery mildew, caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici, have increased in Morocco during the past decade as a result of the introduction and intensive production of a few semidwarf cultivars of bread wheat (Triticum aestivum) and durum wheat (Triticum turgidum) that...

520 |a The incidence and severity of powdery mildew, caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici, have increased in Morocco during the past decade as a result of the introduction and intensive production of a few semidwarf cultivars of bread wheat (Triticum aestivum) and durum wheat (Triticum turgidum) that are genetically uniform, and the increased utilization of nitrogen fertilizers and irrigation. The virulence of the pathogen population has not been characterized in Morocco, and little is known about the spectra and distribution of virulence in B. graminis populations. Such knowledge will facilitate the identification and utilization of effective resistance genes in cultivar development and deployment. Isolates of B. graminis collected in 1999 and 2000 from three Moroccan wheat production areas were analyzed for virulence using a host differential series comprised of 13 known genes conferring resistance to powdery mildew. Segments of primary leaves from 12-day-old seedlings of the wheat differentials were inoculated with isolates of B. graminis derived from a single pustule. Powdery mildew reactions were assessed on a 0 to 9 scale 12 days after inoculation. Virulence frequencies, complexity, and racial composition of the pathogen population were determined. Data were analyzed for associations among pairs and triplets of virulence genes and for distribution of virulence genes among pathotypes. High frequencies of virulence to genes Pm1, Pm3c, Pm3f, Pm4a, pm5, and Pm7 were found over both years and across all three regions. Frequencies of virulence for Pm17 and Pm2 were intermediate, while virulence frequencies for Pm3a, Pm3b, Pm3d, and Pm4b were low. Virulence to Pm8 increased to high levels, while virulence to Pm4a decreased across the area surveyed from 1999 to 2000. The random distribution of virulence genes among patho-types indicates that sexual reproduction contributes to the variability of the pathogen. The Moroccan population of Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici is composed of complex and highly variable pathotypes (87% of the isolates had five or more virulence genes), and strategies for deployment of resistance genes should take into account this complexity
