BGS 739, Required for resistance to Cochliobolus sativus 3, rcr3

BGN  45:251 Export to PDF
Stock number: BGS 739
Locus name: Required for resistance to Cochliobolus sativus 3
Locus symbol: rcr3

Previous nomenclature and gene symbolization:

γ08-124 (2).

Inheritance:

Monofactorial recessive (2, 3).
Location is unknown.

Description:

Plants with the rcr3.c mutant at the rcr3 locus exhibit a susceptible reaction following inoculation with Cochliobolus sativus (Ito & Kurib.) Drechs. ex Dastur [anamorph: Bipolaris sorokiniana (Sacc.) Shoem.] isolate ND85F. When rated following inoculation at the seedling stage, 10 individual plants of the rcr3.c mutant stock ranged from 4.0 to 4.3 with a mean 4.1 compared to rating of 3.5 to 4.5 with a mean of 3.7 for its moderately resistant parent Morex (2, 3). The six-rowed spring barley cultivar Morex has been reported to have the Rcs5.e (Reaction to Cochliobolus sativus 5) gene and at least two other QTL that in combination confer resistance to C. sativus (1, 4, 5).

Mutant used for description and seed stocks:

rcr3.c (γ08-124, GSHO 3704) in Morex.
