| Abstract | Leaf rust is one of the most important diseases of wheat worldwide, particularly in the Great Plains region of the USA. One long-term strategy for the control of this disease may be through durable genetic resistance by gene pyramiding. An important step in this strategy is identifying molecular markers linked to different leaf rust-resistance genes. Here we report the molecular tagging of a leaf rust-resistance gene that may have the potential for durable resistance through further genetic manipulation and gene pyramiding. Lr39 was previously designated for a leaf rust-resistance gene introgressed from Aegilops tauschii accession TA1675 into the common wheat germplasm WGRC2. Lr40 was designated for a gene derived from Ae. tauschii accession TA1649 and is present in germplasm WGRC7. These genes are now believed to be allelic to Lr21, which was transferred to wheat from a different accession of Ae. tauschii. Molecular mapping of Lr39 and Lr40 indicates that both genes come from TA1649. WGRC2 and WRGC7 also have a similar infection type against rust culture PRTUS6. We suggest the designation of the gene in WGRC2 should be changed to Lr40. RFLP marker KSUD14 (locus Xksud14) was found 0.2-cM proximal to Lr40 in a WGRC2/Wichita F2 population (218 individuals), and co-segregated with the gene in a WGRC7/ Wichita F2 population (165 individuals). A PCR-based molecular marker developed from the sequence-tagged-site (STS) of Xksud14 was mapped to the same locus as the RFLP marker KSUD14 in both populations. KSUD14 has the structure of a resistance gene analog (RGA) including kinase2a and kinase3 domains similar to the Cre3 gene of wheat and the rust resistance gene Rp1-D of maize. When the PCR products amplified from KSU14 STS were cleaved with restriction enzyme MspI, an 885-bp fragment was found in WGRC2, WGRC7, the Lr21 near-isogenic line, and eight accessions of Ae. tauschii shown to have resistance gene alleles at the Lr21 locus. The KSUD14 PCR-based assay provides an excellent marker for Lr40 and Lr21 in diverse wheat breeding and wild Ae. tauschii populations. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
