    Abstract:
    The field resistance to Parastagonospora nodorum leaf blotch in SHA3/CBRD is based on many genes with minor effects. Parastagonospora nodorum leaf blotch is a severe wheat disease in Norway and other regions with humid and rainy climate. It causes grain shriveling and reduced yield in years of epidemics. Shanghai-3/Catbird (SHA3/CBRD), a CIMMYT breeding line, was observed to be resistant to P. nodorum leaf blotch in the field. The objective of the current study was to map the genetic factors related to its resistance. A recombinant inbred line population from a cross between SHA3/CBRD and the susceptible German spring cv. Naxos was tested in field trials over 4 years (2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013) with natural infection supplied with mist irrigation. Leaf blotch severity was scored together with plant height, heading date and maturity date in these trials. A testing data set was also available from other field trials with the same population. Totally, two major and six minor QTL were detected for leaf blotch resistance. The major QTL on chromosome 3BL with resistance contributed by Naxos was consistent across all environments and explained up to 12 % of the phenotypic variation. Another major QTL on 3B with resistance from SHA3/CBRD was significant in 2010, 2013 and the testing data set and explained up to 12 % of the phenotypic variation. Minor QTL were detected on 1B, 3AS, 5BS, 5BL, 7A and 7B. The 5BS QTL was likely caused by Snn3-B1, with sensitivity contributed by Naxos. The 5BL QTL mapped to the Tsn1 region, but was likely caused by other mechanisms since both parents were insensitive to ToxA.
