Rapid isolation of Yr9 via MutIsoSeq and QTL analysis of durable stripe rust resistance in wheat cultivar Xingzi 9104.

ABSTRACT: The fungus Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst) is the causal agent of wheat stripe rust which constitutes a major limitation to wheat production. Cloning and applying disease-resistant genes are considered as an effective solution. Chinese wheat cultivar Xingzi 9104 (XZ9104) has exhibited durable resistance across multiple environments since its release. Through quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis, eight QTL were found on chromosome arms 1BS, 1BL, 2AL, 2BL, 3BS, 4BL, 5BL and 7BL. YrXZ identified as 1RS.1BL translocation conferred race-specific all-stage resistance to Pst race CYR23. QYrxz.nwafu-1BL.6 and QYrxz.nwafu-3BS.7 were considered as the adult plant resistance genes Yr29 and Yr30, respectively. Notably, QYrxz.nwafu-2BL.5 accounted for 15.75-47.63% of the phenotypic variatio
