Identification, Characterization and Mapping of LrCen, a New Leaf Rust (Puccinia triticina) Resistance Gene in Spring Wheat (Triticum aestivum)

Boyce, Marley 24 August 2016 (has links)
Wheat leaf rust, caused by Puccinia triticina Eriks. (= P. recondita Rob. Ex Desmaz. f. sp. tritici), is the most widespread disease of wheat worldwide and causes average annual yield losses of 5 to 25%. The emergence of a new predominant race of leaf rust, TDBG, in the 2004 Canadian virulence survey led to the identification of a second leaf rust resistance gene segregating in the Thatcher-Lr1 near-isogenic differential line, RL6003, which produced an unusual mesothetic infection type. This gene was subsequently isolated in a Thatcher background and temporarily designated as LrCen (Tc-LrCen). A cross was made with a susceptible parent (Tc-LrCen/ Sumai3-lr34) and a doubled haploid (DH) mapping population was generated from the hybrids. Parental lines and 180 double haploid (DH) individuals were phenotyped with race TDBG and a 1:1 ratio was observed in the DH population. Parental lines and 94 DH individuals were genotyped with the Illumina Infinium assay using a custom iSelect 90K wheat SNP array. Two-point linkage between the phenotype and polymorphic SNP markers identified linked markers. A BLAST search of linked SNP sequences was performed against the Wheat Survey Sequence providing a putative chromosomal location of 7AL. Subsequent mapping with microsatellite markers confirmed LrCen was located on the long arm of chromosome 7A flanked by gwm344 (9.5 cM) and cfa2240 (0.6 cM) as well as a group of co-segregating SNPs also at a genetic distance of 0.6 cM. When the SNP sequences were converted to the kompetitive allele specific PCR (KASP) markers they were found to be dominant, making them less useful for marker assisted selection in populations with heterozygotes. LrCen mapped distal to Lr20; the only other Lr gene previously identified on chromosome 7AL. / October 2016

Electrochemical deposition of green rust on zero-valent iron

Kulkarni, Dhananjay Vijay 16 August 2006 (has links)
Perchloroethylene (PCE) is a toxic contaminant that has been introduced into the environment over many years through industrial and agricultural wastes. Research has been done in the past to investigate PCE degradation by zero-valent iron (ZVI), green rust (GR) and a mixture of both. The combination of ZVI and green rust has been reported to be more effective for degrading PCE than either of them alone. Forming green rust electrochemically has the potential for depositing GR more effectively on the surface of ZVI where it will be able to more easily transfer electrons from ZVI to contaminants such as PCE. Therefore, the goal of this research was to determine the feasibility of electrochemically depositing green rust on zero-valent iron and to characterize it in terms of its composition, crystal properties and amount produced. XRD analysis was conducted to determine composition and crystal properties and a procedure was developed to measure the amount produced. Equipment was constructed to deposit green rust electrochemically onto ZVI. A chain of experiments with varying voltage, pH, time and amounts of ZVI were conducted to determine feasible experimental conditions for GR formation. Then, a method was developed to accurately measure the amount of surface oxides of iron deposited on the zero-valent iron substrate. This method was tested and found useful for measuring iron in: i) standard solutions of soluble iron with different concentrations of reagents; ii) suspensions with solid iron hydroxides by themselves; and iii) suspensions with solid iron hydroxides and ZVI. Electrochemical experiments were conducted and the amounts of iron hydroxides deposited on the ZVI surface were measured. XRD analysis of the deposits on the surface was conducted and the patterns of XRD-peaks were compared to that of type 2 – sulfate green rust.

Population structure of Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici, the cause of wheat stripe rust, in western Canada

2015 March 1900 (has links)
Stripe rust of wheat, caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst), is one of the most devastating diseases of wheat worldwide. Selection pressure on the pathogen population may result in a rapid shift to races virulent on wheat genotypes with specific resistance genes. For successful stripe rust management, it is important to monitor the virulence spectrum of the pathogen to detect new races. The purpose of this research was to survey Saskatchewan fields to determine the prevalence of stripe rust, characterize the race structure of Pst in western Canada and to determine the genotypic diversity of the pathogen population. Race characterization was performed by inoculating 27 near-isogenic wheat lines carrying 28 known resistance genes, four supplemental cultivars and one triticale cultivar with 61 genetically uniform Pst isolates from western Canada. Whole genome sequencing of pathogen isolates was conducted, using the Illumina HiSeq2500 platform and polymorphisms were assessed by single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) variants. Characterization of Pst isolates identified 33 races of the pathogen. Genes Yr5, Yr15 and YrSP conditioned resistance against all isolates tested and all isolates were virulent on Yr6, Yr7, Yr9, Yr18, Yr28, Yr29 and Yr31. Variation for virulence was observed among isolates on Yr10, Yr24, YrTye, YrSu, Yr3 and Yr4. The analyses of virulence profiles divided the 61 isolates into four sub-populations or groups. These four sub-populations were distinct from each other in terms of virulence spectrum and year of collection. The Pst population in Alberta had greater diversity in terms of virulence compared with the Saskatchewan population. Diversity at the genome level was not observed to be related to geographic location or virulence phenotypes of the isolates. The SNP data revealed four sub-populations in the western Canadian Pst population. Genomic analyses of 48 Pst isolates did not reveal any relationship of the four sub-populations with their origin or year of collection. Signs of recombination were detected in the Pst population in western Canada. Genomic analyses differentiated isolates showing signs of recombination from those that did not.
