“…The expression of enzymes like peroxidases, lipoxygenase and other ROS scavenging enzymes is also enhanced. It was found out by Li et al (2001) that the FHB-resistant cultivar Sumai 3, one of the most worldwide used source of FHB resistance in wheat breeding programmes, accumulates higher levels of chitinases and β-1,3-glucanases than its susceptible mutant. A wide range of secondary metabolites with pro-oxidant properties like phenolic compounds, carotenoids and linoleic acid hydroperoxides are synthesized in order to act as modulators of mycotoxin biosynthesis.…”

The aim of this review is to summarize recent information on Fusarium head blight (FHB) in small grain cereals, especially in wheat and barley. Basic information on FHB epidemiology, types of resistance and plant resistance mechanisms is included. Standard methods for the evaluation of the individual types of FHB resistance and the extent of infection are briefly described. Special attention is paid to the sources of FHB resistance of different origin and possibility of their exploitation in cereal breeding. Unfortunately, a high level of FHB resistance was detected in non-adapted germplasm or distant relatives, which is a serious impediment to breeding progress in this field. The present state of breeding for FHB resistance in wheat, barley, rye, triticale and oats was analyzed. It was shown that large-scale QTL detections provide new opportunities for increasing the resistance; however, multi-step phenotypic selection still remains to be the most effective tool. Pedigree analyses indicated that the latest progress reached in this field was obtained through the cumulation of resistance genes coming from heterogeneous sources with different response to FHB.

“…Some pathogenesis-related proteins such as chitinase, and β-1,3 glucanase have potential antifungal activity which degrade the fungal cell wall and cause fungal cells lyses. Co-induction of chitinases, peroxidases, Ɣ-thionins and β-1,3-glucanases gene expression, during pathogen infection, has been described in several plants, including wheat, strawberry, potato, soybean, maize, tobacco, tomato, bean, and pea, among others (Bettini et al, 1998;Casado-Díaz et al, 2006;Cheong et al, 2000;Lambais & Mehdy, 1998;Li et al, 2001;Liu et al, 2010;Petruzzelli et al, 1999;Vogelsang & Barz, 1993). Defence responses can also be mediated by endogenous signalling molecules such as salicylic acid, jasmonic acid, and ethylene (Encinas-Villarejo et al, 2009;Mysore & Ryu, 2004).…”

“…In addition to H26, several other economically and genetically important genes reside within the 3DL distal region 3DL3-0.81-1, including H24 (Ma et al 1993) and H32 (Sardesai et al 2005) for resistance to Hessian Xy, Lr24 for resistance to leaf rust (Puccinia triticina Erikss) (Boyko et al 1999), R1 for red kernel color (Nelson et al 1995), Chl2 for hybrid chlorosis (Koba and Tsunewaki 1978;Erayman et al 2004), and the genes for Esterase-5 (Devos and Gale 1993) and -(1-3)-Glucanase (Li et al 2001). Thus, the 26 newly developed STS markers in our study will facilitate the genetic study of a number of important traits or genes in this region.…”

Resistance gene H26, derived from Aegilops tauschii Coss., is one of the most eVective R genes against the Hessian Xy [Mayetiola destructor (Say)], an important pest of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Using a limited number of PCR-based molecular markers a previous study mapped H26 to the wheat chromosomal deletion bin 3DL3-0.81-1.00. The objectives of this study were to saturate the chromosomal region harboring H26 with newly developed PCR-based markers and to investigate the collinearity of this wheat chromosomal region with rice (Oryza sativa L.) and Brachypodium distachyon genome. A population of 96 F 2 individuals segregating at the H26 gene locus was used for saturation mapping. All wheat ESTs assigned to the deletion bin 3DL3-0.81-1.00 were used to design STS (sequence tagged site) primers. The wheat ESTs mapped near H26 were further used to BLAST rice and B. distachyon genomic sequences for comparative mapping. To date, 26 newly developed STS markers have been mapped to the chromosomal region spanning the H26 locus. Two of them were mapped 1.0 cM away from the H26 locus. Comparative analysis identiWed genomic regions on rice chromosome 1 and Brachypodium Super contig 13 which are collinear with the genomic region spanning the H26 locus within the distal region of 3DL. The newly developed STS markers closely linked to H26 will be useful for mappedbased cloning of H26 and marker-assisted selection of this gene in wheat breeding. The results will also enhance understanding of this chromosomal region which contains several other Hessian Xy resistance genes.
