Abstract

We fine-mapped and physically anchored a dominant gene (Rbs7) conferring resistance to spot blotch caused by a new pathotype of Bipolaris sorokiniana in a genomic interval of 304 kb on barley chromosome 6H. Spot blotch, caused by Bipolaris sorokiniana, is an economically important disease on barley in the Upper Midwest region of the USA and Prairie Provinces of Canada. A new pathotype (pathotype 7, represented by isolate ND4008) of B. sorokiniana has been identified, which is highly virulent on barley cultivars with resistance to other pathotypes of the fungus. In this study, we fine-mapped a dominant gene conferring resistance to pathotype 7 in the barley line PI 235186. Genetic analysis of the F1 and F2 plants from a cross between PI 356741 (highly susceptible to ND4008) and PI 235186 (highly resistant to ND4008) indicated that a single dominant gene (Rbs7) controls the resistance in PI 235186. This result was confirmed by genetic analysis of the F2:3 families and a recombinant inbred line (RIL) population derived from the same cross. Bulked segregant analysis using simple sequence repeat markers localized Rbs7 on the short arm of chromosome 6H. Additional DNA markers were developed from the 6H pseudomolecule sequence of barley cv. Morex and mapped to the genomic region carrying Rbs7 using the RIL population and F2 recombinants derived from the PI 356741 × PI 235186 cross. Rbs7 was fine-mapped between two markers (M13.06 and M13.37), which spans a physical distance of 304 kb on Morex chromosome 6H. These results provide a foundation for future cloning of the resistance gene and development of user-friendly molecular markers that can be used for development of spot-blotch-resistant cultivars in barley breeding programs.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 27 December 2018.
All research outputs
#14,676,922
of 25,494,370 outputs
Outputs from Theoretical and Applied Genetics
#2,798
of 3,827 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#173,996
of 351,970 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Theoretical and Applied Genetics
#41
of 65 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,494,370 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 41st percentile – i.e., 41% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 3,827 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.0. This one is in the 26th percentile – i.e., 26% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 351,970 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 49th percentile – i.e., 49% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 65 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 30th percentile – i.e., 30% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
