BGS 575, Reaction to Puccinia hordei 6 (barley leaf rust), Rph6

BGN  26:501 Export to PDF
Stock number: BGS 575
Locus name: Reaction to Puccinia hordei 6 (barley leaf rust)
Locus symbol: Rph6

Previous nomenclature and gene symbolization:

Resistance to Puccinia hordei Otth = X (3, 4).
Resistance to Puccinia hordei Otth = Pax (4).

Inheritance:

Monofactorial dominant, but an allele at the Rph2 (reaction to Puccinia hordei 2) locus is present in the original cultivar (3, 4, 5).
Location is unknown.

Description:

The seedling reaction type is 0;n - 1c with race 4 culture 57-19. Heterozygotes frequently show an intermediate response (type 2 or 3 reaction) to inoculation with pathogen races (3).

Origin of mutant:

Natural occurrence in Bolivia (PI 36360) (2, 3).

Mutational events:

Rph6.f in Bolivia (PI 36360, GSHO 1598) (3, 4).

Mutant used for description and seed stocks:

Rph6.f in Bolivia (PI 36360, GSHO 1598); Rph6.f (without an Rph2 allele) in Bowman (PI 483237)*4 (GSHO 2323) (1); Rph6.f (without an Rph2 allele) in Bowman*8 (PI643155, BW756, NGB 22461).
