Preliminary assessment of resistance among U.S. wheat cultivars to the Triticum pathotype of Magnaporthe oryzae

Plant Disease, 96, 1501-1505. https://doi.org/10.1094/PDIS-11-11-0944-REMagnaporthe oryzae is the causal agent of blast disease on several graminaceous plants. The M. oryzae population causing wheat blast has not been officially reported outside South America. Wheat production in the United States is at risk to this pathogen if it is introduced and established. Proactive testing of U.S. wheat cultivars for their reaction to blast and identification of resistance resources is crucial due to the national and global importance of the U.S. wheat industry. In this preliminary study, the phenotypic reaction of 85 U.S. wheat cultivars to M. oryzae (Triticum pathotype) was determined. Although there was a significant correlation in the reaction to blast at the seedling and adult plant stages, only 57% of the head reaction was explained by the seedling reaction. Because of the importance of disease development at the head stage in the field, assessment of all 85 cultivars occurred at the head stage. Among cultivars tested, a continuum in severity to head blast was observed; cultivars Everest and Karl 92 were highly susceptible with more than 90% disease severity, while cultivars Postrock, JackPot, Overley, Jagalene, Jagger, and Santa Fe showed less than 3% infection. No evidence of the presence of physiological races among isolates T-7, T-12, T-22, and T-25 was found

Resistência à ferrugem da folha e potencial produtivo em genótipos de trigo Leaf rust resistance and grain yield potential in wheat genotypes

Foram avaliados 18 genótipos de trigo provenientes de cruzamentos entre a linhagem BH1146//AA"S"/WIN"S", oriunda de cruzamentos interespecíficos entre Triticum aestivum L. e Triticum durum L., e as cultivares IAC 289 e IAC 1004, em experimentos instalados em condições de sequeiro em Manduri (Zona A); Capão Bonito e Itapeva (Zona B) e Paranapanema (Zona C), no período de 2003 a 2005. As avaliações dos genótipos ao agente causal da ferrugem da folha foram feitas no estádio de plântulas em casa de vegetação, onde os genótipos foram submetidos à inoculação, individualmente, com esporos de 12 raças de Puccinia triticina, as quais representavam o espectro de virulência do patógeno ocorrente no Brasil e sob infecção natural no campo. Foram avaliados os rendimentos de grãos de cada genótipo nas diferentes regiões e no conjunto dos experimentos, bem como a estabilidade e adaptabilidade. Os genótipos 8 (BH1146//AA"S"/WIN"S"/3/BUC/FKL//MYNA/VUL), 12 e 14 (BH1146//AA"S"/WIN"S"/3/VEE//DOVE/BUC) destacaram-se por sua resistência às raças fisiológicas de Puccinia triticina em casa de vegetação na fase de plântulas. Em condições de infecção natural da doença, destacaram-se os genótipos 4, 5, 8, 12, 13, 16 e 20 e a cultivar IAC 1004 (T. durum) com resistência à ferrugem da folha no triênio. Os melhores rendimentos de grãos foram obtidos pelos genótipos 8 (BH1146//AA"S"/WIN"S"/3/BUC/FKL//MYNA/VUL), 7 (BH1146//AA"S"/WIN"S"/3/HANN*2/PRL) e 18 (CMH 75.A.66/ SERI/3/BH1146//AA"S"/WIN"S"). O menor foi obtido pelo genótipo 16 (KAUZ/3/ BH1146//AA"S"/WIN"S").<br>Eighteen wheat genotypes obtained from crosses between the parental line BH1146//AA"S"/WIN"S" originated from interespecific crosses between Triticum aestivum L. and Triticum durum L. and the cultivars IAC 289 and IAC 1004 were evaluated in experiments carried out in upland conditions at Manduri (Zone A); Capão Bonito and Itapeva (Zone B) and Paranapanema (Zone C), in the State of São Paulo, Brazil, during 2003-2005 crop seasons. The evaluation of the genotypes to the causal agent of leaf rust was made at the seedling stage in greenhouse, where the genotypes were individually inoculated with spores of 12 races of Puccinia triticina, which represented the spectrum of pathogen virulence occurring in Brazil and under natural infection out in the field. Grain yield of each genotype was evaluated in the different regions and in a group of experiments, as well as the stability and adaptability. The genotypes 8 (BH1146// AA"S"/WIN"S"/3/BUC/FKL//MYNA/VUL), 12 and 14 (BH1146//AA"S"/WIN"S"/3/VEE //DOVE/BUC) showed resistance the physiologic races of Puccinia triticina in greenhouse in the seedling stage. The genotypes 4, 5, 8, 12, 13, 16 e 20 and the cultivar IAC 1004 (T. durum) presented leaf rust resistance, under natural disease infection conditions. The highest grain yields were obtained by the genotypes 8 (BH1146// AA"S"/WIN"S"/3/BUC/FKL//MYNA/VUL), 7 (BH1146//AA"S"/WIN"S"/3/HANN*2/ PRL) and 18 (CMH75.A.66/SERI/ 3/BH1146// AA"S"/WIN"S"). Genotype 16 (KAUZ/3/ BH1146//AA"S"/WIN"S") presented the lowest yield
