Selection and molecular characterization of imidazolinone resistant mutation-derived lines of Tritordeum HT621

Imidazolinone herbicides resistant varieties, induced by mutations at the AHAS gene (acetohydroxyacid synthase), have been developed in many crops. Hexaploid tritordeum (Tritordeum Asch. & Graebn.) is the amphiploid derived from the cross between Hordeum chilense (HchHch) and durum wheat Triticu...

Sumario:Imidazolinone herbicides resistant varieties, induced by mutations at the AHAS gene (acetohydroxyacid synthase), have been developed in many crops. Hexaploid tritordeum (Tritordeum Asch. & Graebn.) is the amphiploid derived from the cross between Hordeum chilense (HchHch) and durum wheat Triticum turgidum L. (Thell) (AABB). Tritordeums have the potential to become a new crop with high added-value for food or feed. Mutagenesis with EMS was conducted to obtain imidazolinone resistant lines derived of the tritordeum HT621. Eleven M3 plants were selected after imidazolinone treatment and five descendants of two of these lines (HT621-M3R1-3 and HT621-M3R10-1) were analyzed at the molecular level. Partial sequences of the three homologous AHAS loci in genomes A, B, and Hch were obtained as well as those of HT621. A partial sequence of the AHAS gene in Hordeum chilense is first described in this work, and the designation ahasL-H ch 1 is proposed. A single Ser-Asn627 substitution at the AHAS locus in the B genome is responsible of resistance in both lines. We propose the name AhasL-B2 for this resistance allele. This is the first report of the selection of imidazolinone resistant lines of tritordeum and the molecular characterization of the mutation conferring this resistance. © 2009 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.
