    Abstract It is obvious that the mechanical properties of arterial tissue include compressibility, anisotropy, and the fact that the out-of-plane shear modulus is smaller than the shear modulus in the plane of the fibers. However, the last point is rarely considered when it comes to compressible anisotropic hyperelastic models. In order to acquire different shear moduli, we propose a modified hyperelastic model including the influence of strain invariants

    Abstract As the primary host of the stripe rust pathogen, Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst), wheat can be infected by both aeciospores and urediniospores, and later is the host that gives rise to urediniospores and teliospores. Barberry species (e.g., Berberis vulgaris) can be infected by basidiospores, produced from the teliospores of wheat plants, and later gives rise to pycniospores and aeciospores, which has been demonstrated through artificial inoculation (3). Oregon grape (Mahonia aquifolium), closely related to Berberis, is a native evergreen shrub that is also grown as an ornamental plant in the Pacific Northwest. To determine if M. aquifolium can also serve as an alternate host for Pst, we conducted artificial inoculations under controlled conditions. Seeds of M. aquifolium collected from Pullman, WA, were sown in pots filled with soil mixture, and plants were grown in a greenhouse under wheat-growing conditions (1). In the first experiment, conducted in May to June 2011, the inoculum was telia collected from artificially inoculated wheat cv. Avocet S with urediniospores of isolate 09-134 (race PST-127) from the greenhouse. In the second experiment, conducted in July to August 2011, the inoculum was telia collected from naturally infected wheat cv. Nugaines with urediniospores from isolate 11-292 (race PST-127) from an experimental field near Pullman. For each experiment, mature teliospores of 60 telia from a single wheat plant were suspended in 1.0 ml of distilled water and inoculated with a fine paint brush onto the leaves of seven or eight 10- to 15-day-old plants of M. aquifolium. Plants were incubated initially in a dew chamber at 10°C for 72 h in darkness, then transferred to a growth chamber with a diurnal temperature cycle of 10 to 24°C and a 16 h light/8 h dark cycle (1). Reddish pycnia with nectar appeared on adaxial surfaces of inoculated leaves at 12 days post-inoculation (DPI), and reddish aecia were produced on the baxial surface at 16 DPI. All 15 M. aquifolium leaves of the 15 plants inoculated with teliospores produced pycnia and aecia. Seedlings of Nugaines and Avocet S, wheat cultivars that are susceptible to all Pst races (1), were then inoculated with a water suspension of aeciospores of 30 aecia collected from the M. aquifolium plants. Wheat plants were incubated as described above for M. aquifolium. Uredinia appeared at 15 DPI, and telia were produced after an additional 15 days. From these uredinia that formed on inoculated wheat, a total of 30 single-uredinium isolates were obtained using the standard procedure (1). Virulence tests were carried out on 20 wheat differentials for 10 randomly selected urediniospore isolates, revealing six virulence patterns. When tested with four selected Pst SSR markers (PstP001, PstP003, PstP005, PstP029) (2) and compared to other race PST-127 isolates, all 10 progeny isolates were homozygous, as were the parental isolates (09-134, 11-292). The virulence tests and marker genotypes verified that the urediniospore isolates resulted from infection by aecia, produced by parental isolate 09-134 through its sexual cycle on M. aquifolium. The study exhibited the completed sexual lifecycle of Pst through the five spore stages on wheat and M. aquifolium in a controlled setting, and suggests that under appropriate weather conditions, M. aquifolium may serve as an alternate host for Pst. Due to the wide distribution of M. aquifolium, further studies are needed to determine if the species can be infected by Pst under natural conditions. References: (1) X. M. Chen et al. Can. J.

    Abstract Sexual reproduction of the stem rust pathogen, Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici (Pgt), on barberry (Berberis vulgaris) has been shown to provide initial inoculum for the development of the disease on wheat and barley and also generate diverse races of the pathogen. However, in our previous study, the stripe rust pathogen, P. striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst), was not found on barberry in the U. S. Pacific Northwest. To determine why Pgt is able to infect the alternate host, while Pst cannot under the natural conditions, the viabilities of teliospores of both Pgt and Pst were investigated from 2011 to 2014 by determining the germination rates using telial samples collected periodically from wheat fields. Teliospores of Pst usually produced in July were physically degraded during winter, and their germination rate decreased from 50 to 90% in August to less than 1% in the following March and no germination after May. In contrast, Pgt teliospores usually produced in July and August remained physically intact and physiologically dormant, and could not germinate until February. Germination of Pgt teliospores gradually increased to 90% in May, at which time young leaves of barberry were susceptible to infection. In addition, a time-series experiment was conducted for inoculation of barberry plants with Pst teliospores. The results showed that Pst teliospores need a minimum of 32 h continual dew-forming conditions to infect barberry, and infection reaches a peak after incubation of inoculated plants for 88 h. The lack of a prolonged period of leaf wetness conditions during the season of telial maturity effectively negates Pst infection of barberry plants in the Pacific Northwest.

    Abstract Stripe (yellow) rust, caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst), is a destructive disease of wheat worldwide, especially in the United States. Growing resistant cultivars is the most effective, economical, and environmentally friendly approach to control the disease. To determine stripe rust resistance genes in U.S. winter wheat cultivars and breeding lines, we analyzed a winter wheat panel of 857 cultivars and breeding lines in a genome-wide association study (GWAS) using genotyping by multiplexed sequencing (GMS) and by genotyping with molecular markers of 18 important stripe rust resistance genes or quantitative trait loci (QTL). The accessions were phenotyped for stripe rust response at adult-plant stage under natural infection in Pullman and Mount Vernon, Washington in 2018 and 2019, and in the seedling stage with six predominant or most virulent races of Pst. The GMS-GWAS analysis identified 36 loci on 15 chromosomes (1A, 1B, 1D, 2A, 2B, 2D, 3A, 3B, 3D, 4A, 4B, 5A, 5B, 5D, 6A, 6B, 7A, and 7B) significantly associated with stripe rust resistance, including 16 loci for race-specific all-stage resistance identified only in the seedling tests and 20 loci only in the field tests. Among these 36 loci, at least four of them were new based on comparison with previously reported genes or QTL for stripe rust resistance. Of the 18 previously reported genes/QTL tested with markers, 16 were present in this winter wheat panel at various frequencies in different nurseries from different regions. This study provides useful information on stripe rust resistance genes in U.S. winter wheat cultivars and breeding lines. The identified genes/QTL and their markers are useful in breeding programs to improve the overall level and durability of resistance to stripe rust.

    Abstract KEY MESSAGE: This study determined the effects of growth stage and temperature on expression of high-temperature adult-plant resistance to stripe rust, mapped six QTL for durable resistance in winter wheat Skiles using a doubled haploid population, and selected breeding lines with different combinations of the QTL using marker-assisted selection. The winter wheat cultivar Skiles has a high level of high-temperature adult-plant (HTAP) resistance to stripe rust caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst). The Skiles HTAP resistance was highly effective at the adult-plant stage even under low temperatures, but high temperatures induced earlier expression and increased levels of resistance. To map resistance genes, Skiles was crossed with the susceptible cultivar Avocet S and a doubled haploid (DH) population was developed. The DH population was tested in fields at Pullman, WA, in 2016, 2017 and 2018, Mount Vernon, WA, in 2017 and 2018 under natural infection, and an environmentally controlled greenhouse at the adult-plant stage with the currently predominant race PSTv-37. The population was genotyped using the 90 K Illumina iSelect wheat SNP chip and selected SSR markers on specific chromosomes. In total, 2526 polymorphic markers were used for QTL mapping and six QTL were detected. Two of the six QTL had major effects across all environments, with one mapped on chromosome 3BS, explaining up to 28.2% of the phenotypic variation and the other on chromosome 4BL, explaining up to 41.8%. Minor QTL were mapped on chromosomes 1BL, 5AL, 6B and 7DL. Genotyping 140 wheat cultivars from the US Pacific Northwest revealed high polymorphism of markers for five of the QTL, and five highly resistant lines with the five QTL were selected from Skiles-derived breeding lines using the markers. This study demonstrated that multiple QTL with mostly additive effects contributed to the high-level HTAP resistance in Skiles.

    Abstract Common barberry (Berberis vulgaris) is the alternate host of the wheat stem rust pathogen, Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici, under natural conditions in the U.S. Pacific Northwest. Barberry was recently shown to be infected by basidiospores of the wheat stripe rust pathogen, Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici, under controlled conditions, but it is unclear if barberry plays any role in stripe rust epidemics under natural conditions. Aecial samples of Puccinia spp. collected from barberry plants in the Pacific Northwest from 2010 to 2013 were characterized to species by inoculation on wheat plants under controlled conditions and by molecular markers and sequences of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region of nuclear ribosomal DNA. Inoculation of wheat plants with bulked aecia-bearing barberry samples resulted in most P. graminis f. sp. tritici uredia and some P. striiformis f. sp. tritici uredinia. Virulence tests demonstrated that the P. graminis f. sp. tritici isolates were sexually produced, whereas the P. striiformis f. sp. tritici isolates were clonal based on both virulence and simple sequence repeat marker tests, indicating urediniospores from wheat fields landing on barberry leaves as the possible source of P. striiformis f. sp. tritici inoculum. A method for simultaneously testing individual aecia for identifying of P. graminis f. sp. tritici and P. striiformis f. sp. tritici by pathogenicity and ITS markers. Using the method together with ITS sequencing, tested individual aecia were mostly P. graminis f. sp. tritici and occasionally some other formae speciales of P. graminis, but not P. striiformis. The results imply that barberry is essential for stem rust epidemics, but not for stripe rust under the natural conditions in the U.S. Pacific Northwest.
