Abstract/Contents: | "Gray leaf spot (GLS), caused by Magnaporthe grisea, is a major fungal disease of St. Augustinegrass [Stenotaphrum secundatum (Walt.) Kuntze], causing widespread blighting of the foliage under warm, humid conditions. To elucidate the genetic control of GLS resistance, we previously identified a total of 30 potential quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with the trait. Among them, several regions of overlap were found on linkage groups 2, 5, 7, 8, 9, which attract interest because they might harbor real genetic loci. However, marker-assisted breeding for GLS has not been well established. To validate single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers associated with GLS resistance, 20 markers in above QTL regions were selected to genotyping the St. Augustinegrass advanced breeding population. Based on evaluation of locus-specificity, call rate and clarity, 3 of them (GLS2, 19, 20) were successfully converted to PCR Allele Competitive Extension (PACE) markers. Levels of GLS resistance of St. Augustinegrass breeding population showed significant variation. Allelic substitution effects analysis showed that lines with desirable alleles (homozygous or heterozygous) showed lower GLS incidence for all three markers, while only GLS20 displayed an additive effect that double desirable alleles showed lower GLS incidence than heterozygous. These markers will facilitate marker-assisted breeding for gray leaf spot resistance in St. Augustinegrass." |
