Recent Advances in Breeding of Cereals for Resistance to Barley Yellow Dwarf Virus – a Review
نویسندگان
چکیده
the review focuses on recent progress in the breeding of small grain cereals (barley, wheat, oats) for resistance to the barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDv). first, the symptomatology of barley yellow dwarf (BYD) disease is briefly described and the genome of BYDv, its serotypes and mechanisms of its replication and translation in host plants are characterized. great attention is paid to the description of resistance genes and sources of BYDv resistance that are currently used in some breeding programmes of barley, wheat and oats. in barley, the introduction of the Ryd2 gene into high-yielding cultivars is still desirable. an example of recent success reached in a european programme aimed at a pyramiding of resistance genes is the registration of the italian feeding barley cultivar Doria, carrying resistance genes Ryd2, rym4 and Rdg1. the release of this cultivar resulted from the cooperation between eiCR, fiorenzuola d’arda and CRi in prague-Ruzyně in the field of virus resistance. finally, some experiments employing transgenic techniques in the construction of resistant plants are mentioned. in conclusion, the advantages and disadvantages of classical breeding methods using crossing and transgenic techniques are compared and newly arising approaches are discussed.

Inheritance of Barley yellow dwarf virus resistance in maize
With increasing winter temperatures due to climate change, Barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV) is expected to become a prominent problem also in maize cultivation. Breeding for resistance is the best alternative to control the disease and break the transmission cycle of the virus. The objectives of our study were to (I) determine phenotypic and genotypic variation in five segregating populations o...

UNLABELLED Summary Barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV), the most economically important virus of small grains, features highly specialised relationships with its aphid vectors, a plethora of novel translation mechanisms mediated by long-distance RNA interactions, and an ambiguous taxonomic status. The structural and movement proteins of BYDV that confer aphid transmission and phloem-limitation pro...

Problems associated with annual grain agriculture, such as soil erosion and water and air pollution, indicate that reliance on annual grain production is a fundamental problem of current agricultural practice (23). Annual plant roots are less efficient micromanagers of water, soil, and soil nutrients than their perennial counterparts, resulting in nutrient and pesticide contamination of water s...

ABSTRACT Reliable detection and quantification of barley and cereal yellow dwarf viruses (YDVs) is a critical component in managing yellow dwarf diseases in small grain cereal crops. The method currently used is enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), using antisera against the coat proteins that are specific for each of the various YDVs. Recently, quantitative real-time reverse-transcriptio...
