Resistance to cotton blue disease (CBD) was evaluated in 364 F(2.3) families of three populations derived from resistant variety 'Delta Opal'. The CBD resistance in 'Delta Opal' was controlled by one single dominant gene designated Cbd. Two simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers were identified as linked to Cbd by bulked segregant analysis. Cbd resides at the telomere region of chromosome 10. SSR marker DC20027 was 0.75 cM away from Cbd. DC20027 marker fragments amplified from 3 diploid species and 13 cotton varieties whose CBD resistance was known were cloned and sequenced. One single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) was identified at the 136 th position by sequence alignment analysis. Screening SNP markers previously mapped on chromosome 10 identified an additional 3 SNP markers that were associated with Cbd. A strong association between a haplotype based on four SNP markers and Cbd was developed. This demonstrates one of the first examples in cotton where SNP markers were used to effectively tag a trait enabling marker-assisted selection for high levels of CBD resistance in breeding programs.

KD results in brown Kernel color and grain protein concentration (GPC) are two of and black discoloration of the lemma and palea, which the most important attributes of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) grain intended for use in malting and brewing. Grain with protein levels reduces the value of the grain for malting. In severe that are too low or high or that have dark kernel color, which may cases, grain may be rejected for malting and must be result from the disease complex of kernel discoloration (KD), is unacmarketed for feed at a reduced price. The severity of ceptable for the malting and brewing industries. The purpose of this KD varies depending on susceptibility of the cultivars study was to use molecular markers to map quantitative trait loci and environmental conditions (Miles et al., 1987; Wil-(QTLs) for KD and GPC in two recombinant inbred line (RIL) coxson et al., 1980). populations. One population was created by means of the high GPCKD resistance is quantitatively inherited (Singh et al., 1997;Oziel et al., 1996). A recent study suggests that a 495
Os sistemas de melhoramento convencionais baseados no método genealógico, utilizados principalmente em cereais de estação fria, determinam a redução da variabilidade e da capacidade de recombinação, devido a utilização de um número de genitores limitado nos cruzamentos. O incremento da probabilidade de recombinação através da seleção recorrente pelo aumento do número de cruzamentos pode ser a saída para este problema. A utilização da macho-esterilidade representa uma alternativa viável para propiciar o cruzamento natural em espécies de autofecundação, favorecendo a utilização da seleção recorrente como uma importante ferramenta para o melhoramento de plantas autógamas.
Postal 776, 90001-970, Porto Alegre -rs, Pesquisador do CNPq. Autores para correspondência. 3 Engenheiro Agrônomo, MSc., COODETEC, PR. RESUMO O presente trabalho foi conduzido com o objetivo de analisar diferentes ambientes para a identificação de genótípos portadores de genes redutores da estatura de planta em trigo, através da reação de sensibilidade ao ácido giberélico (AG). O experimento foi instalado no ano de 1995 em casa de vegetação (CV) e laboratório (LA) na Faculdade de Agronomia da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul -FA/UFRGS, Porto Alegre e a campo (CA), em Eldorado do Sul, RS. Foram avaliados 6 genótípos de diferentes estaturas de planta em O e IDOppm de AG em CV e LA e O , 100 e lOOOppm de AG aplicados quando as plantas apresentavam duas e quatro folhas em CA. A determinação da estatura foi realizada aos 20 dias após a aplicação do tratamento em CV, 18 dias em LA e em quatro avaliações semanais em CA. A separação dos genótípos de acordo com a sensibilidade ao AG foi possível nos três ambientes, sem que a ordem de resposta fosse alterada. A diferença de estatura entre os tratamentos foi utilizada para a comparação entre ambientes e as maiores diferenças de estatura foram observadas em CV e CA. A interação genótipo x ambiente não foi significativa revelando a possibilidade de realização do teste em campo. Para todos os tratamentos aplicados foi possível identificar os genótípos sensíveis ao AG a partir dos 7 dias, através da determinação da estatura e peta identificação visual das plantas.

SUMMARYThis experiment was conducted to analyse different environments in lhe indentification of dv/arf genes m wheat througth lhe giberellic acid (GA) sensitivity reaction. The tests were conducted in 1995, in a greenhouse (GH), laboratory (LA) andfield (Ff) in Porto Alegre and Eldorado do Sul, RS, Brazil. Six genotypes with different heigth were evatualed in GH and LA by treatments with O and 100 GA ppm, and in lhe Fl, when plants had two tofour leaves in lhe treatments with O, 100 and 1000 GA ppm. The heigth measurement was done 20 days after lhe aplication of GA in GH, 18 days in LA andfour-week evaluatíons in lhe Fl. The identijication of GA sensitive genotypes was possible in ali environments. The heigth dijference between the treatments was used to compare the environments, and the targer difference were observed in GH and in the Fl. The genotype x environment interaction was not significam, demonstrating showing the possibility ofusing this identification test in thefield. Seven days after the tratment aplication the sensitive ofGA genotypes could be detected througth height measurements and visual evaluation.
