Selection of Mutants Resistant to Black Spot Disease by Chronic Irradiation of Gamma-rays in Japanese Pear 'Osanijisseiki'.

Abstract: Breeding, NIAR. MAFF. Ohmiya-machi, Naka-gun, Ibaraki 319-22 2Tottori Horticult ural Experiment Station, Daiei-cho, Tohaku-gun, Tottori 689-22 Summary 'Osanijisseiki' , a self-compatible, spontaneous bud sport of the Japanease pear •eNijisseiki' is an excellent cultivar with a smooth skin. However, this cultivar is susceptible to Japnaese pear black spot disease caused by Alternaria alternata Japanese pear pathotype. IRB 502-18T, care beiing examined.

“…culta), was induced in Japan in the 1960s through chronic irradiation of the cultivar 'Nijisseiki' and a resistant cultivar 'Gold-Nijisseiki' was released (Sanada et al, 1988;Ahloowalia, et al, 2004). The success of this programme led to radiation breeding of susceptible 'Shinsui' and 'Osa-Nijisseiki' cultivars resulting in resistant cultivars 'Kotobuki-Shinsui' and 'Osa-Gold' (Masuda et al, 1994;Nakagawa, 2009). The 'Osa-Gold' mutant has the added advantage of being self-compatible, eliminating the need to grow pollinators.…”

“…Under such circumstances, tissue culture techniques offer best possible alternative for improvement and inducing variations and selection of variants for different needs. In fruit crops, mutagenesis has been used to induce many useful traits affecting plant size, blooming time, fruit colour, fruit ripening, self‐incompatibility and resistance to pathogens (Masuda et al., ; Sanada & Amano, ). Genetic variations can be induced either by specific treatments with physical or chemical mutagens or by tissue culture (Larkin, ).…”

“…In contrast, induced mutations change only one or a few specific traits of an elite cultivar, and can contribute to fruit improvement without upsetting neither the requirements of the fruit industry nor the consumers. In fruit crops, mutagenesis has already been used to introduce many useful traits affecting plant size, blooming time and fruit ripening, fruit color, self-compatibility, self-thinning, and resistance to pathogens (Visser et al, 1971;Janick and Moore, 1975;Donini, 1982;Broertjes and Van Harten, 1988;Spiegel-Roy, 1990;Spina et al, 1991;Brunner and Keppl, 1991;Masuda et al, 1997;Janick and Moore, 1996;Van Harten, 1998;Sanada and Amano, 1998).…”
