Abstract
Hessian fly (HF), Mayetiola destructor, is a major insect pest that causes severe losses in grain yield and quality of wheat (Triticum aestivum). Growing resistant cultivars is the most cost-effective approach to minimize wheat yield losses caused by HF. In this study, 2,496 wheat accessions were screened for resistance to the HF biotype 'Great Plains' (GP) in the greenhouse experiments. To purify seeds from heterogeneous resistant accessions, we recovered single resistant plants from 331 accessions that had at least one resistant plant after HF infestation of a global collection of 1,595 accessions and confirmed 27 accessions with high resistance (HR), and 91 accessions with moderate resistance (MR) to the GP biotype using purified seeds. Screening of 203 U.S. winter wheat accessions in three experiments identified 63 HR and 28 MR accessions; and screening of three additional Asian panels identified 4 HR and 25 MR accessions. Together, this study identified 96 HR accessions and 144 MR accessions. Analysis of the geographic distribution of these HR and MR accessions revealed that these countries with HF as a major wheat pest usually showed higher frequencies of resistant accessions, with the highest frequency of HR (81.3%) and MR (30.6%) accessions identified from the U.S. In addition, phenotyping of 39 wheat accessions that carry known HF resistance genes showed that all the accessions except H1H2 remain effective against GP biotype. Some of these newly identified resistant accessions may contain new HF resistance genes and can be valuable sources for developing HF resistant wheat cultivars.

Abstract
The Hessian fly (HF) is an invasive insect that has caused millions of dollars in yield losses to southeastern US wheat farms. Genetic resistance is the most sustainable solution to control HF. However, emerging biotypes are quickly overcoming resistance genes in the southeast; therefore, identifying novel sources of resistance is critical. The resistant line "UGA 111729" and susceptible variety "AGS 2038" were crossbred to generate a population of 225 recombinant inbred lines. This population was phenotyped in the growth chamber (GC) during 2019 and 2021 and in field (F) trials in Georgia during the 2021-2022 growing seasons. Visual scoring was utilized in GC studies. The percentage of infested tillers and number of pupae/larvae per tiller, and infested tiller per sample were measured in studies from 2021 to 2022. Averaging across all traits, a major QTL on chromosome 3D explained 42.27% (GC) and 10.43% (F) phenotypic variance within 9.86 centimorgans (cM). SNP marker IWB65911 was associated with the quantitative trait locus (QTL) peak with logarithm of odds (LOD) values of 14.98 (F) and 62.22 (GC). IWB65911 colocalized with resistance gene H32. KASP marker validation verified that UGA 111729 and KS89WGRC06 express H32. IWB65911 may be used for marker-assisted selection.

Abstract
Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a major crop that feeds 40% of the world's population. Over the past several decades, advances in genomics have led to tremendous achievements in understanding the origin and domestication of wheat, and the genetic basis of agronomically important traits, which promote the breeding of elite varieties. In this review, we focus on progress that has been made in genomic research and genetic improvement of traits such as grain yield, end-use traits, flowering regulation, nutrient use efficiency, and biotic and abiotic stress responses, and various breeding strategies that contributed mainly by Chinese scientists. Functional genomic research in wheat is entering a new era with the availability of multiple reference wheat genome assemblies and the development of cutting-edge technologies such as precise genome editing tools, high-throughput phenotyping platforms, sequencing-based cloning strategies, high-efficiency genetic transformation systems, and speed-breeding facilities. These insights will further extend our understanding of the molecular mechanisms and regulatory networks underlying agronomic traits and facilitate the breeding process, ultimately contributing to more sustainable agriculture in China and throughout the world.

[PMID: 35244868 DOI: 10.1007/s11033-022-07287-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/29/2021] [Accepted: 02/18/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) powdery mildew (Pm), which caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici (Bgt), is a destructive disease worldwide that causes severe yield losses in wheat. Resistant wheat cultivars easily lose their ability to effectively resist newly emerged Bgt strains; therefore, identifying new resistance genes is necessary for breeding resistant cultivars. METHODS AND RESULTS Guizi 1 (GZ1) is a Chinese wheat cultivar with moderate and stable resistance to Pm. Genetic analysis indicated that the Pm resistance of GZ1 was controlled by a single dominant gene, designated PmGZ1. In total, 110 F2 individual plants and their 2 parents were subjected to genotyping by sequencing (GBS), which yielded 23,134 high-quality single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). The SNP distributions across the 21 chromosomes ranged from 134 on chromosome 6D to 6288 on chromosome 3B. Chromosome 6A has 1866 SNPs, among which 16 are physically located between positions 307,802,221 and 309,885,836 in an approximate 2.3-cM region; this region also had the greatest SNP density. The average map distance between SNP markers was 0.1 cM. A quantitative trait locus (QTL) with a significant epistatic effect on Pm resistance was mapped to chromosome 6A. The logarithm of odds (LOD) value of PmGZ1 was 34.8, and PmGZ1 was located within the confidence interval marked by chr6a-307802221 and chr6a-309885836. Moreover, 74.7% of the phenotypic variance was explained by PmGZ1. Four candidate genes (which encoded two TaAP2-A and two actin proteins) were annotated maybe as resistance genes. CONCLUSIONS The present results provide valuable information for wheat genetic improvement, QTL fine mapping, and candidate gene validation.
