Abstract
The powdery mildew resistance from Avena macrostachya was successfully introgressed into hexaploid oat (A. sativa). Genetic analysis of F1, F2, F3 and BC1 populations from two powdery-mildew resistant introgression lines revealed that the resistance is controlled by a dominant gene, tentatively designated Eg-5. Molecular marker analysis was conducted using bulked-segregant analysis in two segregating F3 populations. One codominant simple sequence repeats (SSR) marker AM102 and four AFLP-derived PCR-based markers were successfully developed. The SSR marker AM102 and the STS marker ASE41M56 were linked to the gene Eg-5, with genetic distances of 2 and 0.4 cM, respectively, in both mapping populations. Three STS markers (ASE45M56, ASE41M61, ASE36M55) co-segregated with Eg-5 in one population while two (ASE45M56, ASE36M55) of them linked to Eg-5 with a genetic distance of 1 cM in another population. The gene was further mapped to be in a region corresponding to linkage group 22_44+18 in the Kanota × Ogle (KO) hexaploid oat map by comparative mapping. To our knowledge, this is the first report of mapping powdery-mildew resistance in hexaploid oat. The new resistance source of A. macrostachya, together with the tightly linked markers identified here, could be beneficial in oat breeding programmes.
