Abstract:
The green peach aphid (GPA), Myzus persicae, is an important pest of the peach crop. Three major dominant resistance genes have already been detected, Rm1 in the Weeping Flower Peach (WFP) clone, Rm2 in the Rubira clone, and Rm3 in the Fen Shouxing clone. In this study, after NGS resequencing of WFP and Rubira, we found that their genomic sequences in the Rm1 and Rm2 region were similar but very different from that of the susceptible reference peach Lovell. We constructed a BAC library for the GPA-resistant WFP and screened four BAC clones to sequence the target region. The new sequence was 61.7 Kb longer than Lovell and was annotated with four different TIR_NBS_LRR genes. Among them, the TNL1 gene was very overexpressed in WFP leaves 24 h after GPA infestation. This gene was also present and expressed in the Rubira clone and had the same sequence as the candidate Rm3 gene, supporting the hypothesis that the three genes share the same origin. In addition, we identified a second TNL, TNL2, located at 35.4 Kb from TNL1 and slightly overexpressed after GPA infestation. Kasp and size molecular markers were designed for use in marker-assisted selection and were validated in a peach segregating population.
