YESNO Conserved primer sites? YES!NO

Phase 1 testing primers on species panel

Phase 2- wheat mapping

• Thicker blanket coverage- Rice is the predictor

• Targeting- Telomeres so far- groups 4, 6, and 1 to come- Focus on AxC

• Markers screned on AvalonXCadenza and OpataX Synthetic

Phase 3- SNP or indel description

• 100 selected polymorphisms from Avalon Cadenza

• Conversion to breeders markers?

Follow on work

• Mapping in the other grasses

• Widen wheat mapping panel for unmapped markers and homeologues

• Reduce data point cost- multiplex, reagents….

Mapping candidate genes

• In many programmes it is necessary to map a set of genes.

• HFN, stature/stress CSI, grain shape CSI

• Many more- phenology, yield, primary (starch) and secondary (anthocyanins) metabolomics.

The root infecting Take-all fungus

Affects 2nd and 3rd wheat crops

Unused nutrients left behindleach into water courses

infected roots

Lowers yield and grain quality

Emerging disease complex with Fusarium ear blight

The problem

No known resistancein wheat

Screening for genetic variation in Take-allsusceptibility

Richard Gutteridge

To adapt the laboratory and field protocolsdeveloped at Rothamsted over the past 20 years to screen novel fungicides and formulation

Richard GutteridgeGeoff BatemanJohn Jenkins David Hornby

Approach

Take-all Pot test – 5 reps (10 seeds/pot)artificial inoculum (12 Ggt isolates)

Take-all Pot test

CompletedPot Test = 2 (70 genotypes) Field Tests = 2 years

30 Tm genotypes + 5 hexaploid wheatsas a 3rd crop

In progress (2007)

Exp 130 lines - T. monococcum 6 lines - hexaploid wheat

5 reps per genotype

Great Harpenden III(3rd wheat)

Aim: Evaluating the best genotypes identified in the previous field and pot test

2007 – 2008 field season – Take-all trials

Exp 24 lines - T. monococcum 4 lines - hexaploid wheat 1 line – winter triticale1 line – winter rye

Exp 3

The Watkins Collection ~ 750 lines(1 rep)

Controls1 oat, 1 triticale, 1 rye, 5 hexaploid lines (5 block)randomised single Hereward plots (20)

Aims- Eliminate the most susceptible linesBenchmark against other species

Utilisation of useful traits: Introgression

-Resides at location different to known STB loci ?

-Stops the sporulation of two different Mg isolates

A sporulation-controlling locus on 7Am

Next steps

•Develop more closely-linked markers for introgression

•Establish gene-for-gene relationship

•Map-based cloning

Nitrogen use efficiency

outline• WGIN Rothamsted trials summary• De-convoluting NUE?• Evidence for genetic diversity• Usefulness of Avalon x Cadenza lines• Post-anthesis N-remobilisation - gene

discovery approaches• What next?

WGIN trials summaryDiversity trial

• 2004: 4N, 32 varieties*• 2005: 2N, 20 varieties*• 2006: 3N, 24 varieties*• 2007: 4N, 24 varieties*• 2008: 4N, 24 varieties*

*Varieties varied with core set identical. 2007 and 2008 will be identical.

N usually 0, 100, 200 and 350 kg/ha.

DH (Avalon x Cadenza)

• 2007:2 sites (3 + 2 reps)• 2008: 2 sites (3 + 3 reps) + seed

204 lines + parents.N was 200 kg/ha in 2007 and will be 100

kg/ha in 2008.

Classical measures of Nitrogen Use Efficiency

•Nitrogen Uptake Efficiency (NUpE) = N taken up into plant (above ground)/N available in soil

•Nitrogen Utilization Efficiency (NUtE) = grain yield/N taken up into the plant (above ground)

•Nitrogen Use Efficiency (NUE) = NUpE x NUtE = yield/available N

•Nitrogen Harvest Index (NHI) = N in grain/N in whole plant at harvest

Analysis on standing trials

•Remobilization = N transfer from component of canopy to grain in defined developmental window

•Genes and pathways being expressed in this window
