Favorable Loci Identified for Stripe Rust Resistance in Chinese Winter Wheat Accessions via Genome-Wide Association Study

Stripe rust (or yellow rust), caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst), is one of the most devastating diseases of wheat worldwide. Currently, the utilization of resistant cultivars is the most viable way to reduce yield losses. In this study, a panel of 188 wheat accessions from China wa...

Description
Résumé:Stripe rust (or yellow rust), caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst), is one of the most devastating diseases of wheat worldwide. Currently, the utilization of resistant cultivars is the most viable way to reduce yield losses. In this study, a panel of 188 wheat accessions from China was evaluated for stripe rust resistance, and genome-wide association studies were performed using high-quality Diversity Arrays Technology markers. According to the phenotype and genotype data, a total of 26 significant marker-trait associations were identified, representing 18 quantitative trait loci (QTLs) on chromosomes 1B, 2A, 2B, 3A, 3B, 5A, 5B, 6B, 7B, and 7D. Of the 18 QTLs, almost all were associated with adult plant resistance (APR) except QYr.nwsuaf-6B.2, which was associated with all-stage resistance (also known as seedling resistance). Three of the 18 QTLs were mapped far from previously identified Pst resistance genes and QTLs and were considered potentially new loci. The other 15 QTLs were mapped close to known resistance genes and QTLs. Subsequent haplotype analysis for QYr.nwsuaf-2A and QYr.nwsuaf-7B.3 revealed the degrees of resistance of the panel in the APR stage. In summary, the favorable alleles identified in this study may be useful in breeding for disease resistance to stripe rust
