[Inheritance analysis and molecular marker selection of genes for wheat spindle streak mosaic disease resistance]

Three wheat spindle streak mosaic viruses (WSSMV) resistant cultivars ('Yining Xiaomai', 'Xu87-633', and 'Xifeng') and one susceptible cultivar ('Zhen9523') were used as parents of 3 crosses in this experiment. WSSMV resistance of the parents, F1, and F2 was evaluated under field condition. Based on the segregation ratios of resistant and susceptible plants in F, and F2 populations, it was deduced that the resistance to WSSMV was dominant and the inheritable factors controlling WSSMV resistance were encoded by the nuclear genome. WSSMV resistances in 'Yining Xiaomai' and 'Xifeng' were controlled by two pairs of alleles, which showed complementary effects. However the resistance in 'Xu-87633' was controlled by a single dominant gene. 266 pairs of SSR primers located on 21 wheat chromosomes were used for polymorphic analysis of the two resistant and the susceptible parents 'Yining Xiaomai' and 'Zhen9523', and 108 of them amplified polymorphic DNA products. By Bulk Segregant Analysis of resistant and susceptible pools, one pair of primer located on chromosome arm 2DS, Xgwm261, were found being linked to WSSMV resistance. The 224 F2 individuals were then amplified with marker Xgwm261. The statistic genetic distance between Xgwm261 and the resistance locus was calculated to be 22.9 cM using the software Mapmaker 3.0.
