To understand the cause of loss of rice blast resistance, we studied the pathogenicity of Magnaporthe oryzae strains isolated from rice hybrid Wuyou 308 and evaluated its resistance genes. A total of 62 M. oryzae strains were isolated and tested in 7 Chinese rice varieties with varying degrees of resistance to rice blast and 30 blast-resistant monogenic lines. Fourteen physiological races of M. oryzae were identified: 8.55% belonging to the ZA group, 86.67% to the ZB group, and 5.00% to the ZC group. ZB15 was the most abundant race (45.00%). Five resistance genes, Pi-3(1), Pi-z5, Pi-k, Pi-kp(C), and Pi-k(C), conferred good resistance to the 62 strains, with resistance frequencies of 95.56, 91.11, 88.89, 82.22, and 82.22%, respectively. In contrast, Pi-a(2) had a resistance frequency of 0%. The hybrid combination Wuyou 308 was found to carry Pi-ta and Pi-b genes. Because Pi-ta and Pi-b both showed low resistance frequencies to M. oryzae isolated from Jiangxi, the hybrid rice variety Wuyou 308 could be infected by most of the 62 M. oryzae strains. The emergence and spread of rice blast disease in Wuyou 308 may thus be difficult to avoid when climatic conditions are favourable.

Thousand-grain weight (TGW) is an important trait affecting wheat production. We previously identified a major quantitative trait loci (QTL) controlling the TGW on the 2D chromosome of wheat using a recombinant inbred line (RIL) population constructed by the cross between Tibetan semi-wild wheat Q1028 (Q1028) and Zhengmai 9023 (ZM9023). The positive allele at this QTL is from ZM9023. To further characterise this QTL, here, we try to develop and validate the high-resolution melting (HRM) and sequence-characterised amplified region (SCAR) markers. One HRM marker (0C98-411) and two SCAR markers (E301-700 and B0BB-10470) were developed and integrated into the genetic map. All of these three markers were validated in three populations with different genetic backgrounds. 0C98-411 is the most closely linked marker that could trace QTgw.sau-2D in molecular marker assisted breeding.

The occurrence of floral petal spots is common among flowering plants and plays a major role in attracting pollinators. Cotton genotypes having large red petal spots are frequent in the United States Department of Agriculture, National Plant Germplasm System Gossypium arboreum (L.) collection. One accession, PI 408798, showed a unique faint red petal spot phenotype. To genetically characterise this trait, a F2 population of 226 plants was developed by crossing PI 408798 with G. arboreum accession PI 529714 that lacked pigmented petal spots. From the population, 161 plants showed the presence of faint red petal spots; whereas, 65 plants lacked pigmented petal spots. These data supported the single dominant gene model for the presence of floral petal spots. Accession PI 408798 will provide an important genetic resource to characterise the genes involved in the pathway controlling floral pigmentation.

Understanding genetic diversity is a main key for crop improvement and genetic resource management. In this study, we aim to evaluate the genetic diversity of the released Malaysian rice varieties using single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers. A total of 46 released Malaysian rice varieties were genotyped using 1536 SNP markers to evaluate their diversity. Out of 1536 SNPs, only 932 SNPs (60.7%) represented high quality alleles, whereas the remainder either failed to amplify or had low call rates across the samples. Analysis of the 932 SNPs revealed that a total of 16 SNPs were monomorphic. The analysis of the SNPs per chromosome revealed that the average of the polymorphic information content (PIC) value ranged from 0.173 for chromosome 12 to 0.259 for chromosome 11, with an average of 0.213 per locus. The genetic analysis of the 46 released Malaysian rice varieties using an unweighted pair group method with arithmetic mean (UPGMA) dendrogram revealed the presence of two major groups. The analysis was supported by the findings from the STRUCTURE analysis which indicated the ∆K value to be at the highest peak at K = 2, followed by K = 4. The pairwise genetic distance of the shared alleles showed that the value ranged from 0.000 (MR159 MR167) to 0.723 (MRIA Setanjung), which suggested that MR159 and MR167 were identical, and that the highest dissimilarity was detected between MRIA 1 and Setanjung. The results of the study will be very useful for the variety identification, the proper management and conservation of the genetic resources, and the exploitation and utilisation in future breeding programmes.

The 1BL/1RS wheat-rye translocation has been widely utilized in wheat genetic improvement and breeding programs. Our understanding on the effects of the 1BL/1RS translocation on wheat kernel size (e.g. length and width) is limited despite of numerous studies reporting about the effects on kernel weight. Here, we identified a wheat 1BL/1RS translocation line 88-1643 with higher kernel length (KL) using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), genomic in situ hybridization (GISH) and molecular markers. To detect the possible role of the 1BL/1RS translocation in KL, kernel width (KW), and thousand-kernel weight (TKW), three recombinant inbred line (RIL) populations were constructed by crossing 88-1643 and three other wheat lines. As expected, the results showed that the values of KL in lines carrying 1RS were significantly higher than those carrying 1BS in three RIL populations at multiple environments, indicating that a major and stably expressed allele or gene responsible for increasing KL is most likely located on 1RS from 88-1643. Additionally, in one RIL population, the increased KL contributed significantly to the increase in TKW. Collectively, the 1BL/1RS translocation reported here is of interest to reveal molecular mechanism of the gene controlling KL and will be useful for improving wheat yield.

The designation of traditional varieties of grapevine is usually based on verbal information or very dated records. Old rare cultivars found in the Czech Republic were identified by Simple Sequence Repeat (SSR) analysis, a generally accepted method for cultivar identification. These cultivars are primarily maintained in a national collection of genetic resources. Finally a total of 102 candidate genotypes was selected where 49 traditional varieties were identified on the base of nine SSR loci compared with the European Vitis Database. Thirty-six items were registered under the correct designation. The remaining genotypes included four clones, and two genotypes could be described as synonyms. Seven genotypes were found to be incorrectly marked. For three of them, the correct name was found in the database under their SSR profile and four items were considered to be unique as no identical profile was found.

BTB-TAZ (BT) proteins are plant-specific transcription factors containing a BTB domain and a TAZ domain. They play vital roles in various biological processes and stress responses. In this study, a total of three BT genes (CsBT1–3) were identified from cucumber genome, and they were unevenly distributed in two of the seven chromosomes. Phylogenetic analysis of the BT proteins from cucumber, Arabidopsis, apple, tomato, and rice revealed that these proteins could be distinctly divided into two groups in accordance with their motif distributions. We also determined the structures of BT genes from cucumber, Arabidopsis, and rice to demonstrate their differences. The quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) results showed that the CsBT genes displayed differential expression patterns in cucumber tissues, and their expression was regulated by cold, salt, and drought stresses. These findings suggest that CsBT genes may participate in cucumber development and responses to various abiotic stresses.

The reaction of twelve winter wheat cultivars frequently grown in the Czech Republic and twenty-five new breeding lines to inoculation with Oculimacula yallundae and Oculimacula acuformis was evaluated in small plot trials from 2017–2018. The assessment was carried out visually by symptoms and by a quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). The aims of the study were to compare the results of both methods, to evaluate the effect of the resistance gene Pch1 to eyespot, and to select new breeding lines resistant to eyespot. The relationship between the eyespot symptoms and the pathogen DNA content in plant tissues followed a moderate linear regression. Low levels of eyespot were observed in the cultivars/lines possessing the resistance gene Pch1 (Annie, Hermann, Rebell, SG-S1215-14, SG-S1825-14, SG-S791-13) and also in the line SG-SU630-15. The qPCR method was able to detect low levels of the pathogens in the plant tissue and to distinguish two eyespot pathogens. O. acuformis was detected in very low concentrations in the inoculated plants compared with O. yallundae. The eyespot infection rate was significantly higher in 2017 than in the next agricultural season due to extremely dry and warm spring weather in 2018.
