[Chromosomal location and molecular marker of resistance gene to Puccinia striiformis west. in Leymus mollis Trin. Hara].

The hybrid wheat line, 93784 is a stable line selected from progenies of Leymus molli Trin. Hara x common wheat, which shows a very high level of resistance to yellow rust. The results of GISH using genomic DNA of Leymus mollis as probe indicated that the 93784 was a wheat-Leymus mollis small segment translocation line, and the translocated alien chromosome fragment were located on a pair of short arm terminals of what chromosomes. Using this translocation line, we established F2 segregation population and identified its yellow rust resistance in adult stage. Genetic analysis suggested that the yellow rust resistance of 93784 was controlled by a single gene. The gene was located on the translocated chromosome segments of Leymus mollis. We called it YrLm. By AFLP analysis with Taq I (T1-T4)/Pst I (P1-P6) primes in individuals of F2 segregation population and their susceptive and resistant parents, we screened a molecular marker that linked to yellow rust resistance gene YrLm. We also cloned and sequenced the molecular marker. The length of the marker is 205 bp, named P1T(3)205.
