Identifying resistance genes in wheat against common bunt (Tilletia caries) by use of virulence pattern of the pathogen

Résumé fourni par la source

455 wheat varieties and breeding lines were grown in the field,contaminated with 7 to 11 different races of common bunt. Based on the reaction of the lines to the different virulence races, it was possible to group the lines by differential varieties with known resistance genes, indicating that they may have one or two of the resistance genes Bt1, Bt2, Bt5, Bt7, Bt13, BtZ or Quebon-resistance. Based hereof, genetic markers will be developed using a genome-wide association study (GWAS).
