The chromosome 7Dv of Aegilops ventricosa (syn. Triticum ventricosum, 2n = 4x = 28, genome DvDvMvMv) carries the gene Pch1 for resistance to eyespot. This gene has previously been transferred to chromosome 7D of bread wheat, T. aestivum (2n = 6x = 42, genome AABBDD). To (1) enhance the level of resistance of bread wheat by increasing the copy number of Pch1, and (2) create eyespot-resistant triticales, meiotically stable Pch1-carrying durum lines were selected from the backcross progenies of a cross between Ae. ventricosa and T. durum cv. Creso ph1c (2n = 4x = 28, genome AABB). The Pch1 transfer, likely resulting from homoeologous recombination, was located at the distal position on the long arm of chromosome 7A. The 7A microsatellite marker Xgwm 698 was found closely linked in repulsion to the introgression in the resistant recombination lines, and the endopeptidase allele located on chromosome 7A of cv. Creso ph1c was lost.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
