Vernalization genes determine winter/spring growth habit in temperate cereals and play important roles plant development environmental adaptation. In wheat (Triticum L. sp.), it was previously shown that allelic variation the vernalization gene VRN1 due to deletions or insertions either promoter first intron. Here, we report a novel Vrn-B1 allele has retrotransposon its conferring spring habit. The VRN-B1 mapped doubled haploid population segregated for winter-spring but derived from two...

Akebia trifoliata is an important multiuse perennial plant that often suffers attacks from various pathogens due to its long growth cycle, seriously affecting commercial value. The absence of research on the resistance ( R ) genes A. has greatly limited progress in breeding resistant varieties. Genes encoding proteins containing nucleotide binding sites (NBSs) and C-terminal leucine-rich repeats (LRRs), largest family genes, are vital for disease resistance. A comprehensive genome-wide...

Stripe rust, a highly destructive foliar disease of wheat (Triticum aestivum), causes severe losses, which may be accompanied by reduced photosynthetic activity and accelerated leaf senescence. We used suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH) to examine the mechanisms resistance in resistant line L693 (Reg. No. GP-972, PI 672538), was derived from lineage that includes wide cross between common Thinopyrum intermedium. Sequencing an SSH cDNA library identified 112 expressed sequence tags....

Powdery mildew, which is caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici (Bgt), an important leaf disease that affects wheat yield. mildew-resistance (Pm) gene Pm21 was first transferred into in the 1980s, translocating Heuchera villosa chromosome arm 6VS to 6AL (6VS·6AL). Recently, new Bgt isolates are virulent have been identified some fields, indicating breeders should be aware of risk deploying Pm21, although pathological details regarding these still remain discovered. Pm40 and mapped on 7BS...

Photosynthesis is not only a primary generator of reactive oxygen species (ROS) but also component plant defence. To determine the relationships among photosynthesis, ROS, and defence responses to powdery mildew in wheat, we compared Pm40-expressing wheat line L658 its susceptible sister L958 at 0, 6, 12, 24, 48, 72 h post-inoculation (hpi) with via analyses transcriptomes, cytology, antioxidant activities, chlorophyll fluorescence parameters. The results showed that H2O2 accumulation was...
