The objective of the soybean breeding program for disease and pest resistances at Iowa 14 State University (ISU) is to release germplasm possessing resistance to pathogens. AR11SDS (Reg. 15 No. 16 virguliforme, it is resistance to soybean cyst nematode caused by Heterodera glyicnes Ichinoe, and 17 also possess adequate resistance to iron deficiency chlorosis (IDC). AR11SDS was developed at ISU, 18 Project No. 4403 of the Agronomy Department, ISU Research foundation (ISURF) Docket # 3999. 19 AR11SDS is a bulk of 60 F8:9 plants uniform in plant and seed traits, selected from the cross of 20 ‘Ripley’ x ‘IA2036’. Ripley is resistance to SDS, IA2036 is resistance to SCN. The cross was made at 21 Ames, and generations were advanced at the ISU research site at the Isabela Substation, University 22 of Puerto Rico, Isabela, P.R. AR11SDS was evaluated for yield from 2003 to 2006. SDS and SCN 23 resistances were evaluated under greenhouse conditions and on infested field soils tests. 24 Calcareous soils in field tests were used to evaluate IDC resistance. Five SDS resistance quantitative 25 trait loci (QTLs) were inherited from Ripley, and one SCN resistance QTL from IA2036. Seed yield 26 was similar to IA2068 and IA2065, and superior to ‘Dwight’. AR11SDS is of early- to mid-maturity 27 group II, adapted to latitudes from 40 to 420 N. AR11SDS may serve breeding programs for its 28 multiple resistances. vi 13 , PI …………….) is highly resistance to Sudden Death Syndrome (SDS) caused by Fusarium ew On ly 5585 Guilford Rd., Madison WI 53711 Journal of Plant Registrations Page 2 of 27 2 1 2 Planting genetically resistant crops are one of the most effective management strategies for 3 crop production. The use resistant genotypes does not require additional inputs by the agribusiness 4 enterprise, and contributes to maintain the ecological equilibrium. Other strategies such as the use 5 of cultural practices to improve soil drainage and to reduce soil compaction as well as crop rotation 6 are also appropriately used (Roy et al., 1997; Rupe et al., 1997). 7 Sudden Death Syndrome (SDS) is an important yield deterrent to soybean [Glycine max (L.) r Fo Merrill] in most of the major soybean producing countries (Wrather et al., 2010). During the 1996 to 9 2007 production years in the U.S., yield depression by SDS ranked second to fifth compared to all 10 other soybean diseases occurring in the Midwestern soybean production region (Roy et al., 1997; 11 Wrather and Koenning, 2009; Wrather et al., 2010). In soybean SDS was first identified in Arkansas, 12 USA, in 1971. The disease spread to other soybean production regions in the U.S., and in 1994 it 13 was first identified in southern Iowa (X.B. Yang, personal communication, 1994). Presently it is 14 observed in all counties of the state of Iowa. Yield losses caused by SDS in Iowa peaked in 2010, due 15 to the unfortunate coincidence of environmental factors such as climate (temperature and rain), soil 16 conditions, and the opportunistic presence of the fungus (Robertson and Leandro, 2010). ew vi On 17 Re 8 The disease caused by the soil-borne fungus Fusarium virguliforme (Fv), colonizes soybean roots producing root rot (Aoki et al., 2003; Rupe, 1989). The pathogen also produces toxins that 19 upon translocation to the leaves via the xylem cause foliar symptoms (Jin et al., 1996; Rupe , 1989). 20 The majority of the resistant cultivars were initially developed for maturity groups IV and later, 21 therefore in breeding for resistance to SDS in the northern U.S. it has been necessary to use later 22 maturing resistance cultivars as donors crossed to high-yielding susceptible cultivars of early 23 maturity groups (Cianzio et al., 2014). ly 18 24 Soybean cyst nematode (SCN) caused by Heterodera glycines Ichinohe is another major pest 25 in the state of Iowa and also throughout the entire soybean production region in the U.S. (G. Tylka, 5585 Guilford Rd., Madison WI 53711 Page 3 of 27 Journal of Plant Registrations 3 1 personal communication, ISU, 2014). In Iowa, the prevalent nematode race is 3 (HG types 0 and 7), 2 as determined by the Extension Service at ISU. The nematodes damage the roots of the soybean 3 plant, diminish plant growth causing stunted plant height, negatively impacting soybean yields 4 (Wang et al., 2003). 5 Iron deficiency chlorosis (IDC) in soybean may occur when certain genotypes are planted on calcareous soils (Cianzio, 1999), because the genotypes differ in their ability to use soil Fe under high 7 pH conditions (Weiss, 1943). The high pH values of some soils render the soil Fe present at the Fe+3 8 stage unavailable to the plant due to impaired plant absorption thru the roots (Curie and Briat, 9 2003; Mengel, 1994). Iron deficiency chlorosis affects commercial soybean fields, as soybean r Fo 6 production moves north and west in the U.S., into soils with high concentrations of carbonate and 11 salts (Coulombe et al., 1984). There are an estimated 4.5 million soybean acres at high risk for iron 12 deficiency problems in the U.S. alone, distributed mainly in the eastern Dakotas, western 13 Minnesota, and north–central Iowa (N. Hansen, personal communication, Colorado State University, 14 2007). The IDC symptoms are evident in the interveinal tissue of young leaves, while the veins 15 remain green (de Mooy, 1972). Some genotypes may recover during the growing season, however, 16 yield is reduced whenever yellowing occurs (Niebur and Fehr, 1981). ew vi On 17 Re 10 In some soils it is possible to encounter a combination of biotic stress-related problems such as the presence of soybean cyst nematode and Fusarium virguliforme. In addition, abiotic stress 19 factors such as IDC may also be present (Charlson et al., 2004). The occurrence of multiple yield 20 deterrents in Iowa soils imposes the need to improve germplasm possessing genetic resistances to 21 several stress factors. This was the objective of the ISU soybean breeding project for disease, pests, 22 and abiotic resistance in releasing the germplasm line AR11SDS (Reg. No. 23 is a germplasm line possessing resistance to SDS, to SCN, and adequate IDC scores. The seed yield of 24 AR11SDS is similar to public cultivars IA2068 and IA2065, and it is superior to the cultivar ‘Dwight’ 25 (Nickell et al., 1998). AR11SDS is of early- to mid-maturity group (MG) II, two to three days later ly 18 5585 Guilford Rd., Madison WI 53711 , PI ). AR11SDS Journal of Plant Registrations Page 4 of 27 4 1 than IA2068 and IA2065, and of similar maturity to Dwight. AR11SDS is adapted to latitudes from 40 2 to 420 N, and resistance to SDS, to SCN HG type 0 and 7 (equivalent to SCN race 3), and it has 3 adequate IDC resistance. AR11SDS may serve breeding programs for its combination of resistance 4 traits and adequate yield. 5 6 Materials and Methods 7 Pedigree r Fo 8 AR11SDS (experimental line AR03-263051) is an F3- derived F8:9 bulk from the cross of ‘Ripley’ x ‘IA2036’. Ripley (Cooper et al., 1990) is a high-yielding, lodging resistance determinate 10 cultivar, jointly released by the USDA-ARS and the Ohio Agricultural Research and Development 11 Center in 1985. Ripley of MG IV and partially resistant to SDS, was derived from the cross of 12 ‘Hodgson’ x V68-1034. Hodgson (Lambert and Kennedy, 1975) is a selection from the cross of 13 ‘Corsoy’ x M372. V68-1034 is a selection from the cross of ‘York’ x PI 71506. IA2036 (Cianzio, S.R. et 14 al. Intellectual Property Disclosure & Record – IA2036, ISURF Docket # 02599) is a cultivar released 15 by Iowa State University in 1989 that possess excellent resistance to SCN, with equal or superior 16 yield to widely-grown public varieties of similar maturity at the time of release. IA2036 was derived 17 from the cross of ‘Jack’ x A86-301024. Jack (Nickell et al., 1990) is resistant to SCN derived from PI 18 88788. A86-301024 is an Iowa State University advanced experimental line selected from the cross 19 of A81-356022 x ’Hack’. ew vi Re 9 On ly 20 21 22 Line Development and Evaluation of Traits in Iowa The cross of Ripley x IA2036 was done in 2001 at the Agronomy and Research Farm at Ames, 23 Iowa. The cross designated as AX17927 was part of a group of crosses made with the objective to 24 develop high-yielding lines with resistance to SDS. Thirty seven F1 seeds were obtained. During the 25 winter of 2000-2001, F1 and F2 seeds were planted at the ISU research site at the Isabela Substation, 5585 Guilford Rd., Madison WI 53711 Page 5 of 27 Journal of Plant Registrations 5 Univ. of Puerto Rico, at Isabela, P.R. Morphological markers (flower and pubescence colors) were 2 used to confirm the hybrid nature of the F1 plants that were afterwards harvested in bulk. The F2 3 and F3 generations were also advanced at the ISU research site in Puerto Rico. The F3 seed was 4 harvested by equally sampling each F2 plant, three seeds per plant. In the summer of 2001, the F3 5 seed was planted at Bruner Farm near Ames, IA, with the objective of harvesting F3-derived lines 6 classified by maturity to obtain F3:4 lines. During the winter of 2002, the F3:4 lines were screened for 7 SDS resistance/susceptibility under greenhouse conditions at the Cianzio laboratory, Agronomy 8 Department Research Greenhouses, at Ames, IA. 9 r Fo 1 Field test evaluations were conducted in Iowa during 2002-04 using remnant seed of the F3:4 seed of the lines evaluated for resistance to SDS during the winter. In 2002, the lines were 11 evaluated in the 1st yield test at one central location near Ames. The plots were one-row plots, 63 12 cm long, planted at 8 seed per 30 cm-1, with two replications. The lines and control cultivars were 13 randomized in a randomized complete block design. Agronomic data, namely plant height, lodging, 14 and maturity date, along with seed yield were recorded. Each plot was individually harvested and 15 the superior yielding lines were selected for further testing. ew vi Re 10 Subsequent field tests were conducted at different Iowa locations in replicated experiments 17 during 2003 and 2004. In 2003, the resistant F3-5 lines were evaluated in replicated tests on non-SDS 18 infested soil at two Iowa locations, Kanawha and Crawfordsville. In 2004, the experimental line 19 AR03-263051 was evaluated in the 3rd yield test at two locations, Kanawha in a different field than 20 used in 2003, and at Marshalltown, IA. At each year-location environment combination, plots of the 21 line and checks were two-row plots, 4.5 m long, spaced between rows by 80 cm, and planted with 8 22 seed per 30 cm-1. The experimental line AR03-263051 at each location-year combination, always 23 had superior yield to existing check varieties with adequate agronomic traits (data not shown). 25 ly 24 On 16 During each winter from 2002-2003 until 2004-2005, the line was screened for resistance to SDS under greenhouse conditions at the Cianzio laboratory (data not shown). The protocol used 5585 Guilford Rd., Madison WI 53711 Journal of Plant Registrations Page 6 of 27 6 1 was first developed at Iowa State University by X.B. Yang (personal communication, Iowa State 2 University, 2002), modified by P. Lundeen (personal communication, Iowa State University, 2004), 3 and later patented by D. Lightfoot at SIU (2007, Patent # 7,288,386). The patented screening test 4 was used with permission. At each screening test, the experimental line AR03-263051 showed high 5 levels of SDS resistance (data not shown). 6 7 Line Evaluation at Regional Trials r Fo 8 During 2005-2006, the experimental line AR03-263051 was evaluated in the Uniform 9 Northern Regional Soybean Cyst Nematode tests, planted in replicated experiments throughout the Northern soybean production region (T. Cary, personal communication, University of Illinois, 2005 11 and 2006). Four-row plots were planted at several locations, on SCN-infested and in one non- 12 infested soil. The two center rows were harvested to estimate yield. Experimental lines entered in 13 the tests were also screened for their SDS and SCN resistances under greenhouse conditions and in 14 field tests, and for their IDC reaction by plantings on fields with calcareous soil. Since 2007 the line 15 has been used as a check genotype in the SDS Regional Tests, conducted at SIU, Carbondale, IL (J. 16 Bond, personal communication, SIU, 2007). ew vi Re 10 On Agronomic and yield data were collected at each location. In addition seed composition, 18 and SDS, SCN and IDC data were obtained at a smaller number of locations. On the basis of these 19 and data accumulated over the years at the Iowa locations, the decision was made to release the 20 experimental line AR03-263051 as a germplasm line with the identification of AR11SDS. ly 17 21 22 Sudden Death Syndrome Disease Screening and Disease Assessment 23 Screening for Sudden Death Syndrome Resistance under Greenhouse Conditions 24 25 Screening tests were conducted at the Cianzio laboratory, Agronomy Department Research Greenhouses at Ames, IA during the first two winters (data not shown). The lines were also 5585 Guilford Rd., Madison WI 53711 Page 7 of 27 Journal of Plant Registrations 7 evaluated for yield and agronomic traits in field plantings in the corresponding summers. In the 2 greenhouse screenings, three isolates of F. virguliforme, “Clinton 1B” from Clinton County and two 3 isolates from Scott County, “ScottF2I11a” or “Scott B2” were obtained from roots of SDS 4 symptomatic plants from production fields in Clinton and Scott counties in Iowa. The screening 5 protocol used has been previously described (Cianzio et al., 2014). The cups were maintained in the 6 greenhouse bench at 20oC. Plants were watered once daily to maintain soil moisture. Three 7 replications per genotype were valuated. The light bulbs used in the greenhouse were 400 W High 8 Pressure Sodium, model Sylvania 67533-LU400/ECO-HPS. 9 r Fo 1 In the greenhouse, SDS symptoms were evaluated at 35 days after planting at vegetative stages V3 to V4 (Fehr et al., 1971). Disease incidence (DI), disease severity (DS), and disease index 11 (DX) were recorded (Bond and Schmidt, 2005). Disease incidence is the percentage of plants in plots 12 showing leaf symptoms. Disease severity was scored on a 1-9 scale over all plants in a cup where 1 13 = 1 to 10% of the leaf surface chlorotic; 2 = 11 to 20% of the leaf surface chlorotic or 6 to 10% 14 necrotic; 3 = 21 to 40% of the leaf surface chlorotic or 11 to 20% necrotic; 4 = 41 to 60% of the leaf 15 surface chlorotic or 21 to 40% necrotic; 5 = >60% of the leaf surface chlorotic or >40% necrotic; 6 = 16 <one-third premature defoliation; 7 = one-third to two-thirds premature defoliation; 8 = >two-thirds 17 premature defoliation; and 9 = plant death before normal defoliation due to senescence. Disease 18 index is the ratio of DI x DS/ 9. Number of plants per cup was also recorded. ew vi Re 10 On ly 19 20 Screening for SDS resistance in field conditions. 21 The field tests conducted in Iowa were planted in fields where irrigation was available and, 22 when possible, with a history of SDS. Plots were located at the Hinds Farm Experimental Research 23 Station, near Ames, IA (Table 1). A randomized complete block design with three replications was 24 used in each experiment, and the plantings were conducted on plots artificially inoculated with SDS. 5585 Guilford Rd., Madison WI 53711 Journal of Plant Registrations Page 8 of 27 8 1 The inoculum was prepared at the Cianzio laboratory using white sorghum [Sorghum bicolor 2 (L. Moench)] seed inoculated with a mixture of two isolates of F. virguliforme obtained from 3 naturally infested fields in Iowa. Five-week old inoculum was sieved to a maximum size of 0.06 mm 4 (1/4 inch) and placed in each of the soybean seed packets 48 h before planting. The amount of 4 5 cm3 was used per 30 cm (1 ft.) of row in each of the two-row plots, 2.40 m (8 ft.) long. 6 The DS scale in the field is the average percentage of total foliar surface lost to necrosis/chlorosis on plants with symptoms on a plot basis. It was rated as 1 = 1 to 10% of the leaf 8 surface chlorotic or 1 to 5% necrotic; 2 = 11 to 20% of the leaf surface chlorotic or 6 to 10% necrotic; 9 3 = 21to 40% of the leaf surface chlorotic or 11 to 20% necrotic; 4 =41 to 60 % of the leaf surface 10 chlorotic or 21 to 40% necrotic; 5 = >60% of the leaf surface chlorotic or > 40% necrotic; 6 = <one- 11 third premature defoliation; 7 = one-third to two-thirds premature defoliation; 8 = >two thirds 12 premature defoliation; and 9 = plant death before normal defoliation due to senescence. r Fo 7 vi Re In the field tests, plots were rated when the majority of the plants in the row and in the test 14 were at the R6 reproductive growth stage (Fehr et al., 1971). The disease incidence, and the disease 15 severity were scored on a plot basis and the disease index was calculated as DX = DI x DS/9. In all 16 SDS screening tests, susceptible and resistant genotypes were included as control cultivars. The 17 control genotypes were the same as used in the SDS Soybean Variety Tests performed at SIU. ew 13 On 19 20 ly 18 SCN Nematode Screening and Resistance/Susceptibility Assessment Data reported for SCN screening was done as part of the disease screenings conducted for 21 all experimental lines planted at the SCN Uniform tests (Table 2). Screenings were conducted at 22 Purdue University, and at the University of Illinois. The test at Purdue, IN, was done by bringing in 23 SCN-infested soil from field locations, and using it to test each soybean line for resistance to the SCN 24 population found in that field. The field populations were classified using the Race system (Schmitt 25 and Shannon, 1992). 5585 Guilford Rd., Madison WI 53711 Page 9 of 27 Journal of Plant Registrations 9 1 The tests conducted at Illinois used sterilized sandy soil artificially inoculated with 1,000 2 eggs (T. Niblack, personal communication, Ohio State University, 2005). Thirty days after 3 inoculation, female cysts were washed from the roots and counted. The female index (FI) was 4 calculated for each entry by dividing the mean number of cysts on the entry by the mean number of 5 cysts on the susceptible check ‘Lee 74’ (Caviness et al., 1975) multiplied by 100. The line reactions 6 to soybean cyst populations were characterized using the HG Type nomenclature (Niblack et al., 7 2002). 9 10 r Fo 8 Iron Deficiency Chlorosis – Assessment The data reported for IDC is also part of the screenings conducted in all experimental lines Re at the SCN Uniform tests (T. Cary, personal communication, University of Illinois, 2005 and 2006). 12 The tests were conducted by the Minnesota and Iowa collaborators (Table 3). At Minnesota, plots 13 were 0.9 m long with 75 cm distance between rows (J. Orf, personal communication, Univ. of 14 Minnesota-St. Paul, 2014), replicated three times at each of two locations. At Iowa, the tests were 15 conducted by the Cianzio laboratory. Each genotype was planted in hill plots, 0.75 m long (30" in 16 rows), spaced at 30 cm (12 in) within the row. Each hill was planted with five seeds per hill at two 17 high pH field locations. One location was located on the Harps soil type and the other on the 18 Canisteo soil type, the soil pH ranged from 7.5 to 8.0. A Randomized Complete Block (RCB) design 19 with two replications was used at each location. ew On ly 20 vi 11 The IDC scores were recorded at each location approximately four weeks after planting at 21 the V2 to V3 (Fehr et al., 1971) plant growth stage and again at five weeks after planting at the V3 to 22 V4 growth stage. The scores from each genotype-location were averaged and an overall rating was 23 assigned to each plot. The IDC score is rated on a scale of 1 to 5 with 1 = no chlorosis, normal green 24 plants; 2 = slight yellowing of upper leaves and the leaf veins and with the interveinal area not 25 showing a differentiation in the color; 3 = interveinal chlorosis in the upper leaves while no obvious 5585 Guilford Rd., Madison WI 53711 Journal of Plant Registrations Page 10 of 27 10 1 stunning of growth or death of tissue observed; 4 = chlorosis of the upper leaves observed along 2 with some apparent stunning of growth or necrosis of tissue; and 5 = plant death due to IDC 3 (Cianzio, 1999). One genotype highly resistant and one genotype susceptible to IDC also were 4 included in each of the experiments as checks. 5 6 7 Statistical Analysis Statistical analyses were run using PROC ANOVA, SAS Version 9.2 (SAS Institute, Cary, NC, r Fo 8 2000) and Fisher’s protected LSDs for plot data. The conduct of the analyses were similar to 9 previously reported (Cianzio et al., 2014). The term of genotype x environment was used to estimate error variances for traits in the SCN regional trials (P. Dixon, personal communication, ISU, 11 2009). Fisher’s protected LSDs were calculated for regional trials by summing individual location 12 estimates of the error variances from each location CV. The estimated variance was then used to 13 calculate Fisher’s protected LSD. The LSD for all traits evaluated in Iowa were calculated using 14 standard ANOVA analysis. ew vi 15 Re 10 For the SDS diseases index and similar to previous research (Cianzio et al., 2014), combined LSD across locations and years was not calculated because of the highly variable disease levels 17 across locations and years. Seed traits were scored by bulking six individual samples per genotype; 18 therefore, no statistical analyses was conducted. 20 21 ly 19 On 16 Molecular Analysis Molecular analysis was conducted for the experimental line AR03-263051 to detect the 22 presence of the SDS resistance QTLs specific to Ripley. A PCR based molecular marker analysis was 23 used. The seeds of AR03-263051, Ripley and IA2036 were grown in the greenhouse and leaf 24 samples were collected for DNA extraction and analysis. 5585 Guilford Rd., Madison WI 53711 Page 11 of 27 Journal of Plant Registrations 11 Genomic DNA was isolated according to the CTAB extraction method (CIMMYT, 2005). DNA 2 was isolated from leaf samples of five plants separately from each genotype (experimental line and 3 parents) and each of the five samples were treated as five replications. The final DNA pellet was re- 4 suspended in 300 µL of 1X TE buffer pH8.0 and stored at – 20 º C until further use. DNA quality was 5 checked by running two µL of the DNA on 1% agarose gel. Also, DNA quantity was estimated by 6 running 1 Kb DNA ladder (NEB Inc., MA, USA) along with the genomic DNA (not shown). The DNA 7 was diluted with sterile water and 20 ng were used as template for 10 µL of PCR run. The PCR 8 amplification was performed using a thermal cycler program of 2 min at 94ºC, 38 cycles of 9 denaturation at 94ºC for 30 s, annealing at 50ºC for 30 s, and extension at 72ºC for 1 min. A 10-min 10 extension at 72ºC followed the last cycle. The PCR reaction mixtures included 2 mM MgCl2 (Bioline, 11 MA, USA), 0.25 µM each of forward and reverse primer (Integrated DNA Technologies, Inc., IA, USA), 12 2 µM dNTPs and 0.5 U Choice Taq DNA Polymerase (Denville Scientific, Inc., NJ, USA). vi Re 13 r Fo 1 Five SDS QTLs identified in Ripley as associated with resistance were used in the molecular ew analysis. The QTLs belong to five different linkage groups (LG): LG L, Glycine max (Gm) chromosome 15 19; LG O (Gm10); LG D2 (Gm17); LG A2 (Gm08) and LG N (Gm03). Specific SDS resistance QTL 16 markers for four of the QTLs were obtained from the published literature (Kazi et al., 2008 and Neto 17 et al., 2007). Three markers, Satt156, Satt166 and Satt448 are linked to the QTL located on LG L 18 (qFDS002-03) (Neto et al., 2007). The markers linked to LG D2 QTL (cqSDS001), are Satt311 and 19 Satt226 (Neto et al., 2007). The marker Satt187 is linked to the QTL on LG A2 (qFDS003-06), whereas 20 the marker Satt631 is associated with the QTL on LG N (qSDS002) (Hashmi, 2004; Kazi et al., 2008). 21 Two markers, Satt188 and Satt262 are linked to the LG O QTL (T. I. Pruski, unpublished information, 22 B. W. Diers lab, University of Illinois). ly 23 On 14 The molecular markers for the two SCN-resistance QTL located on LG J (Gm 16) and LG G 24 (Gm 18) specific to the SCN resistant parent IA2036 (SCN resistance donor PI 88788) were designed 25 at the Cianzio laboratory based on the information provided in previous publications (Chang et al., 5585 Guilford Rd., Madison WI 53711 Journal of Plant Registrations Page 12 of 27 12 1 2011; Glover et al., 2004). Two markers, Satt244 and Satt547 are linked to LG J (Qscn3-3), whereas 2 marker Satt275 is associated with the QTL that belongs to LG G (Qscn3-2). Sequences of the 3 molecular markers were obtained from the “Soybase” database (http://www.soybase.org/). 4 PCR was done in MyCycler (BioRad Inc., CA, USA). The amplified products were resolved on a 5 4% agarose gel along with either 50 bp or 100 bp DNA ladder (NEB Inc., MA, USA) by running at 150 6 V for 7 hour. The ethidium bromide stained PCR products were visualized following illumination with 7 UV light. 9 10 r Fo 8 Seed Purification Seed purification of AR11SDS began at the Agronomy Farm Research Center, near Ames, IA Re in 2007. To obtain breeder seed and seed for increases, 60 individual F8:9 plants were harvested 12 being uniform in maturity, flower and pubescence colors, and agronomic and seed traits. During 13 the winter of 2008, seed derived from the 60 individual plants were checked for hilum color before 14 bulking the F8:9 seed for release. ew 15 vi 11 This seed source is maintained by the ISU soybean breeding project for disease resistance, available for research and distribution. The line has been publicly released by the Iowa State 17 University Research Foundation (ISURF) under ISURF Docket # 3999, identified as AR11SDS. On 16 19 Characteristics ly 18 20 21 22 Sudden Death Syndrome Resistance Disease resistance of AR11SDS measured as DX at each of four consecutive years from 2007 23 to 2010, indicates the line is resistance to SDS (Table 1). Each year, AR11SDS was one of the more 24 resistant line in the tests. In some years, it was even more resistant than at least one of the SDS 25 resistant checks, and comparable in its resistance to the best current resistant check. Every year 26 when AR11SDS was planted in the same test as SB2859, DX index of the ISU line was superior to the 5585 Guilford Rd., Madison WI 53711 Page 13 of 27 Journal of Plant Registrations 13 1 control cultivar SB2859, except in 2008 at the Ames location, in IA. Depending on the year and 2 location AR11SDS had or slightly less resistance to SDS than 233+RR, the best SDS check in the tests. 3 It is to be noticed however, that both genotypes had variable resistance depending on locations and 4 years, suggesting a complex interaction between the environments and the resistance QTLs 5 AR11SDS has. Overall, the AR11SDS resistance to SDS indicates this is a valuable genotype in the 6 early maturity groups for use as a donor source of resistance. 7 9 r Fo 8 Soybean Cyst Nematode Resistance In the tests conducted at Purdue, Indiana, AR11SDS performed as moderately resistance to Race 3 in 2005, and resistance to Race 3 in 2006 (Table 2). In 2006, AR11SDS also showed resistance 11 to other four races identified on infested soils in Indiana, Races 1, 3, 5, and 6. 12 Re 10 In the tests conducted at Illinois, AR11SDS was resistance to populations HG Type 0 in 2005 vi and HG Type 7 in 2006 (equated in both cases to Race 3 in the race classification) (Table 2). Under 14 the HG Type system, AR11SDS was not resistant to HG Type 2.5.7 equated to Race 1 according to the 15 race system. This result was observed in 2005 and 2006. The results support the claim that the 16 germplasm line AR11SDS in addition to being highly resistant to SDS also possess resistance to at 17 least one population/race of the nematode, identified as Race 3, HG Type 0, and 7. 20 Iron Deficiency Chlorosis – Abiotic Factor Resistance Assessment ly 19 On 18 ew 13 The IDC scores of AR11SDS were adequate in three of the environments in which the line 21 was evaluated, the two states-locations in 2005 and in the Iowa location in 2006 (Table 3). AR11SDS 22 however, did not perform well in the Minnesota location in 2006. On the average, results indicate 23 that AR11SDS may possess some favorable genes for resistance to IDC. The genes depending on 24 environmental conditions in the planting location, could provide protection in soils where iron is not 25 in the available chemical state (Fe+2) that is adequate for root absorption by some genotypes. The 5585 Guilford Rd., Madison WI 53711 Journal of Plant Registrations Page 14 of 27 14 1 IDC symptom expression has been shown to interact with the environmental conditions at the 2 location in which lines are evaluated (Cianzio, 1999). 3 4 5 Yield and Agronomic Performance AR11SDS had average yield performance within or close to the nearest 50% superior range of all the lines included in the 2005 and 2006 tests that were evaluated in the SCN-infested and non- 7 infested soils (Table 4). The ranking of the line ranged from being 6 among 28 genotypes in 2005, to 8 13 among 24 genotypes in 2006 when evaluated on SCN-infested soil. In 2005, AR11SDS under 9 infested conditions yielded better than the average of the checks in the tests, and even superior to 10 some of the other public soybean cultivars resistant to SCN, IA2068 and IA1008. Although the yield 11 observed in 2006 was less than in 2005, AR11SDS had better yield than the average of the checks. 12 Under non-infested conditions the yield of AR11SDS placed it in a superior rank place compared to 13 some of the checks. In 2005, AR11SDS was higher yielding than IA1008 and Dwight. In 2006, 14 AR11SDS yielded better than IA1021, IA2065, and Dwight. This observation, however, needs to be 15 considered with caution, it resulted from only one test location at each of the two years. ew vi Re Averaged over the two years, 2005 and 2006, AR11SDS was four days later than IA2068, On 16 r Fo 6 three days later than IA2065, and of similar maturity to Dwight. In 2005 and in 2006, AR11SDS 18 ranged in maturity from four to five days later than IA2068, and from three to four days later than 19 IA2065, two public cultivars also of maturity group II that were evaluated in the same tests. Lodging 20 scores and plant height of AR11SDS were comparable to other genotypes in the tests, with AR11SDS 21 showing a tendency to be taller than the checks. ly 17 22 23 24 25 Botanical Description and Seed Traits AR11SDS (Experimental line AR03-263051) is of early to mid-MG II. It has purple flowers, gray pubescence, brown pods, seeds with buff hila, yellow seed coat, and dull seed coat luster. 5585 Guilford Rd., Madison WI 53711 Page 15 of 27 Journal of Plant Registrations 15 1 Seed traits, such as seed quality scores, and seed size of AR11SDS averaged over 2005-2006 2 were comparable to public cultivars (Table 5). The protein content of AR11SDS was higher than the 3 checks. Under the environmental conditions in which the line was evaluated, there seems to be an 4 advantage that favors the protein content of the germplasm line. Oil content was slightly less than 5 two of the checks and comparable to Dwight. 6 7 r Fo 8 Molecular Analysis of SDS and SCN Resistance There were six molecular markers associated with SDS resistance in Ripley for which the two parents were polymorphic, Satt166, Satt187, Satt226, Satt262, Satt311 and Satt631 (Figures 1a 10 to 1f). The markers Satt311 and Satt226 are linked together and represent the same QTL on LG D2. 11 The PCR products of each of the six markers were similar in size between the AR11SDS germplasm 12 line and the Ripley parent (Figures 1a – 1f). In contrast, the PCR product size for the mentioned six 13 markers was different when compared to the other parent of the line IA2036, the SDS susceptible 14 cultivar. Trends were similar in each of the three plants from AR11SDS that were individually 15 analyzed and considered as replications. There were two markers, Satt188 and Satt448 that in spite 16 of being associated with SDS resistance in the Ripley parent, were not polymorphic between the two 17 parents of AR11SDS gemrplasm line. Similar results and the lack of polymorphism in the same 18 markers has also been noticed earlier at the Diers’ laboratory, while screening for SDS resistance 19 QTL considered specific to Ripley (B. W. Diers, unpublished information, University of Illinois, 2007). 20 Our molecular analysis clearly demonstrated that the five SDS resistance QTLs from Ripley were 21 transferred to its progeny, the germplasm line ARS11SDS. ew vi On ly 22 Re 9 Similarly, three molecular markers specific to two SCN resistance QTLs were tested. Two 23 markers, Satt275 and Satt547 representing the QTL at linkage group G and J, respectively were 24 polymorphic between the two parents of the germplasm line (Figure 2). The marker Satt244 was 25 not polymorphic between the parents, therefore it was not used in the analysis. Of the two 5585 Guilford Rd., Madison WI 53711 Journal of Plant Registrations Page 16 of 27 16 1 polymorphic markers, only Satt275 PCR products were similar in size between AR11SDS and IA2036 2 (Figure 2), which indicates that the resistant QTL at LG G in AR11SDS was inherited from IA2036. 3 There was no evidence that the resistance QTL on LG J had been transferred from IA2036 to 4 AR11SDS. 5 6 Discussion AR11SDS soybean germplasm is the second germplasm line developed and released by Iowa 8 State University. The germplasm line AR11SDS is a half-sib of AR10SDS, both share Ripley as the SDS 9 resistant donor parent. Although research has not been conducted yet to directly compare the two r Fo 7 germplams lines, the observations suggest that AR11SDS appears to have superior SDS resistance 11 than AR10SDS. A possible explanation of the differences in SDS resistance between the two 12 germplasms could relate to the fact that AR11SDS inherited additional QTLs from Ripley than those 13 inherited by AR10SDS (Cianzio et al., 2014). IAR10SDS inherited three QTLs, each representing 14 Linkage Groups (LG) L, A2 and N. AR11SDS inherited five QTLs and six markers from Ripley each 15 representing LGs L (Satt166 marker), A2 (Satt187 marker), D2 (Satt226 and Satt311 markers), O 16 (Satt262 marker), and N (Satt631 marker). Linkage group D2, and LG O are additional linkage groups 17 present in AR11SDS that had not been observed in AR10SDS. This observation suggests that 18 different linkage groups associated with SDS resistance may contribute differently to the final 19 expression of the SDS resistance trait. ew vi On ly 20 Re 10 A thought of caution has to be considered in this discussion however, since the genetic 21 background of the susceptible parent is different in each of the two germplasm lines. To be able to 22 establish a true comparison on the relative importance of the different linkage groups associated 23 with SDS resistance, it would be necessary to introgress each of the linkage groups and associated 24 QTLs on the same genetic backgrounds, such as the development of near-isogenic lines, only 5585 Guilford Rd., Madison WI 53711 Page 17 of 27 Journal of Plant Registrations 17 1 differing in the QTL that was introgressed. Only then these observations may be proven and 2 interpreted. 3 4 5 Seed Availability Seeds of AR11SDS has been deposited with the National Plant Germplasm System, and will be available from that source 20 years from the date of publication.
