Identification of deletion mutants for Lr67/ Yr46/Sr55/Pm46

► Mutagenesis by gamma-irradiation using a 60 Co source at ININ, Mexico. ► 4000 seed radiated ► Grow M1, individually harvest plants ► Grow M2 (2000 lines, 20 space planted plants/M2), identify susceptible, harvest… ► M3, M4 plots ► 1 mutant was 15 bp deletion (M55), 1 mutant was 3bp deletion (M157) and 3 mutants were complete deletion of Lr67 (M87, M147, M168)

Why do we use PAPR in breeding?

► Leads to resistance durability- good for farmers and donors’ investment ► Genes have pleiotropic genetic control on rusts, powdery mildew and some other diseases ► Field based selection simultaneously with other traits increases high genetic gains for multiple traits

Utilization of PAPR genes in breeding: challenges

► Small to intermediate effects of individual genes ► Dispersed presence of genes in different cultivars and germplasm ► Field selection environment lacking uniform and high disease pressure ► Need for growing larger population sizes for selection ► Difficulty in distinguishing small effect race-specific genes from slow rusting genes (especially for resistance to yellow rust) ► Higher G x E interaction on the expression and effectiveness of genes Despite numerous challenges, significant progress was made at CIMMYT for resistance to all three rusts
