| Abstract: | Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] PI486355 is resistant to all the identified strains of soybean mosaic virus (SMV) and possesses two independently inherited resistance genes. To characterize the two genes, PI486355 was crossed with the susceptible cultivars 'Lee 68' and 'Essex' and with cultivars 'Ogden' and 'Marshall', which are resistant to SMV-G1 but systemically necrotic to SMV-G7. The F2 populations and F 2:3 progenies from these crosses were inoculated with SMV-G7 in the greenhouse. The two resistance genes were separated in two F 3:4 lines, 'LR1' and 'LR2', derived from Essex X PI486355. F1 individuals from the crosses of LR1 and LR2 with Lee 68, Ogden, and 'York' were tested with SMV-G7 in the greenhouse; the F2 populations were tested with SMV-G1 and G7. The results revealed that expression of the gene in LR1 is gene-dosage dependent, with the homozygotes conferring resistance but the heterozygotes showing systemic necrosis to SMV-G7. This gene was shown to be an allele of the Rsv1 locus and was designated as Rsv1-s. It is the only allele identified so far at the Rsv1 locus which confers resistance to SMV-G7. Rsv1-s also confers resistance to SMV-G1 through G4, but results in systemic necrosis with SMV-G5 and G6. The gene in LR2 confers resistance to strains SMV-G1 through G7 and exhibits complete dominance. It appears to be epistatic to genes at the Rsv1 locus, inhibiting the expression of the systemic necrosis conditioned by the Rsv1 alleles. SMV-G7 induced a pin-point necrotic reaction on the inoculated primary leaves in LR1 but not in LR2. The unique genetic features of the two resistance genes from PI486355 will facilitate their proper use and identification in breeding and contribute to a better understanding of the interaction of SMV strains with soybean resistance genes. |
