    Abstract:
    Adult-plant stripe rust resistance gene Yr86 in Chinese wheat cultivar Zhongmai 895 was mapped to the physical interval 710.2-713.2 Mb on the long arm of chromosome 2A. Adult-plant resistance to stripe rust is generally more durable than all-stage resistance. Chinese wheat cultivar Zhongmai 895 showed stable stripe rust resistance at the adult-plant stage. To map the genetic loci underlying its resistance, 171 doubled haploid (DH) lines from a Yangmai 16/Zhongmai 895 cross were genotyped with the wheat 660 K SNP chip. Disease severities of the DH population and parents were assessed in four environments. A major QTL designated QYryz.caas-2AL was mapped to interval 703.7-715.3 Mb on the long arm of chromosome 2A using both chip-based and KASP (kompetitive allele-specific PCR) marker-based methods, explaining 31.5 to 54.1% of the phenotypic variances. The QTL was further validated in an F2 population of cross Emai 580/Zhongmai 895 with 459 plants and a panel of 240 wheat cultivars using KASP markers. Three reliable KASP markers predicted a low frequency (7.2-10.5%) of QYryz.caas-2AL in the test panel and remapped the gene to the physical interval 710.2-713.2 Mb. Based on different physical positions or genetic effects from known genes or QTL on chromosome arm 2AL, the gene was predicted to be a new one for adult-plant stripe rust resistance and was named Yr86. Twenty KASP markers linked to Yr86 were developed in this study based on wheat 660 K SNP array and genome re-sequencing. Three of them are significantly associated with stripe rust resistance in natural population. These markers should be useful for marker-assisted selection and also provide a starting point for fine mapping and map-based cloning of the new resistance gene.
