The Basis for Thinopyrum-Derived Resistance to Cereal yellow dwarf virus

Utilization and Performance in Wheat of Yellow Dwarf Virus Resistance Transferred from Thinopyrum Intermedium

Characterization of wheatgrass-derived barley yellow dwarf virus resistance in a wheat alien chromosome substitution line.

ABSTRACT Wheatgrass (Thinopyrum intermedium) possesses a high level of resistance to barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV) subgroup I and subgroup II strains. A wheat line (P29), in which the 7D chromosome has been substituted with a group 7 chromosome from T. intermedium, was examined for the level of resistance to two subgroup I and two subgroup II BYDV strains. In P29 plants inoculated with the s...

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...

Barley yellow dwarf virus and Cereal yellow dwarf virus Quantification by Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction in Resistant and Susceptible Plants.

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...

Phenotypic and Molecular Screening of Tomato Germplasm for Resistance to Tomato Yellow Leaf Curl Virus

Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) is a major tomato virus in tropical and subtropical regions. In this study, 134 accessions of Solanum lycopersicum and six accessions of Solanum peruvianum were assessed for resistance to an Iranian isolate of TYLCV. Plants were inoculated using whiteflies (Bemisia tabaci) and the reaction of plants was evaluated based on either disease symptoms or viral DN...
