Fusariumhead blight (FHB) and stem rust are two devastating fungal diseases of common wheat prevalent worldwide.Fhb1is a well-known major quantitative trait locus effective against FHB, andSr2is the most widely characterized and deployed wheat stem rust adult plant resistance gene. These genes are linked in repulsion phase, approximately 3 cM apart, on chromosome 3B. To obtain wheat germplasm containing bothFhb1andSr2genes, we developed and screened two F2populations using tightly linked DNA markers, Xgwm533 and csSr2 forSr2, and UMN10, and a newly designed marker UMN10v2forFhb1. Among 1949 F2plants, 43 were identified withFhb1andSr2in coupling phase. After screened with vernalization gene markers, 59 F3spring wheat lines with homozygousFhb1andSr2were obtained. All these lines showed significantly lower FHB severity than susceptible checks (P< 0.01) and similar FHB severity to the resistant checks (P> 0.61) in the field. And these lines were susceptible as seedlings in greenhouse assays, but resistant as adult plants to race QTHJC in the stem rust nursery. Field disease resistance evaluation verified that all these recombinant lines showed moderate or high levels of resistance to both FHB and stem rust. This germplasm would benefit efforts to breed for resistance to FHB and stem rust, and the procedure to obtain recombinants is adaptable to other wheat breeding programs.
