Research Progresses on Mapping of Wheat Stripe Rust Resistance Genesand Molecular Markers
The epidemics of stripe rust cause significant yield losses in wheat production.Breeding and cultivation of durably resistant varieties are the most cost-effective strategy for controlling wheat stripe rust.To achieve the goal of breeding durably resistant varieties through multi-gene pyramiding,it is necessary to continuously explore disease-resistant germplasms,decipher their resistant genetic mechanisms and develop molecular markers.This paper summarized the research progresses of stripe rust resistance,molecular markers,gene mapping methods,and their application in breeding related to the identification of stripe rust resistant genes to further clarify the status,limitations,and advantages of association mapping technologies for mapping of stripe rust resistance genes.This paper aims to provide technical guidance for the subsequent discovery of stripe rust resistance genes,multi-gene pyramiding,and the breeding and production arrangement of durably resistant wheat varieties to reduce the frequency of stripe rust epidemics in the northwestern wheat region and major wheat producing areas to further guarantee national food security.
