Genetic and Physical Mapping of Candidate Genes for Resistance to Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. tracheiphilum Race 3 in Cowpea [Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp]

Abstract: Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. tracheiphilum (Fot) is a soil-borne fungal pathogen that causes vascular wilt disease in cowpea. Fot race 3 is one of the major pathogens affecting cowpea production in California. Identification of Fot race 3 resistance determinants will expedite delivery of improved cultivars by replacing time-consuming phenotypic screening with selection based on perfect markers, thereby generating successful cultivars in a shorter time period. Resistance to Fot race 3 was studied in the RIL populat… Show more

“…Relatively mature plants could tolerate higher concentrations of DMSO better than younger plants, so the chemical concentrations increased over time and the amount sprayed increased for thorough coverage as plant size increased: 24 h prior to inoculation = 100 mM BHTC, 2 mL per plant; week 1 post inoculation = 100 mM BHTC, 2 mL per plant; week 2 post inoculation = 200 mM BHTC, 3 mL per plant; week 3 post inoculation = 500 mM BHTC, 4 mL per plant; week 4 post inoculation = 750 mM BHTC, 4 mL per plant; and week 5 post inoculation = 1 mM BHTC, 4 mL per plant. Plants were evaluated 5 weeks post inoculation for severity of disease symptoms (leaf chlorosis/wilting and vascular stem discoloration) relative to noninoculated plants (10 BHTC-treated, 10 mock-treated, and 10 untreated plants) using a 0 to 5 rating scale as described previously (Pottorff et al, 2012). One hundred DMSO-treated and 100 BHTC-treated plants were scored individually in each experiment, and statistical significance was determined using x 2 tests of independence.…”

“…One hundred DMSO-treated and 100 BHTC-treated plants were scored individually in each experiment, and statistical significance was determined using x 2 tests of independence. Fot3 was grown and inoculum prepared as described previously (Pottorff et al, 2012). Cowpea-Fot3 experiments were conducted in a greenhouse with day temperatures up to 35°C and night temperatures down to 16°C.…”

“…Management of root rots is done following an integrated approach employing genetic resistance, cultural practices and chemical application [6] [7] [8]. While there are no known varieties resistant to cowpea root rots, fungicide application is associated with negative environmental, economic and health concerns that cannot be ignored [8].…”

“…It is not clear how the pathogen infects mungbean, although the cowpea pathogen, F. oxsporum f. sp. tracheiphilum, is thought to invade the root system via the vascular tissue, resulting in wilt, leaf chlorosis, and stunting of the entire plant (Pottorff et al, 2012). According to , in mungbean seedlings, leaves wilt and the stem may start to brown as a basal rot develops.…”
