Genome-wide association study for resistances to yellow rust, powdery mildew, and Septoria tritici blotch in cultivated emmer
Genome-wide association study for resistances to yellow rust, powdery mildew, and Septoria tritici blotch in cultivated emmer
Abstract (English)
Emmer is a progenitor of bread wheat and evolved in the Levant together with the yellow rust (YR), powdery mildew (PM) fungi, and a precursor of Zymoseptoria tritici causing Septoria tritici blotch (STB). We performed a genome-wide association mapping for the three disease resistances with 143 cultivated emmer accessions in multi-environmental trials. Significant (P < 0.001) genotypic variation was found with high heritabilities for the resistances to the two biotrophs and a moderate heritability for STB resistance. For YR, PM, and STB severity nine, three, and seven marker-trait associations, respectively, were detected that were significant across all environments. Most of them were of low to moderate effect, but for PM resistance a potentially new major gene was found on chromosome 7AS. Genomic prediction abilities were high throughout for all three resistances (≥ 0.8) and decreased only slightly for YR and PM resistances when the prediction was done for the second year with the first year as training set (≥ 0.7). For STB resistance prediction ability was much lower in this scenario (0.4). Despite this, genomic selection should be advantageous given the large number of small QTLs responsible for quantitative disease resistances. A challenge for the future is to combine these multiple disease resistances with better lodging tolerance and higher grain yield.
