Wheat powdery mildew, caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici (Bgt), is a destructive disease of wheat throughout the world. One of the most important environmental-friendly and economical methods to reduce wheat loss caused by Bgt is to develop highly resistant varieties (Kuraparthy et al., 2007). Pm21 from the wild species Haynaldia villosa (also known as Dasypyrum villosum) confers high resistance to Bgt in wheat throughout all growth stages. It has now become one of the most highly effective genetic loci introgressed into wheat from wild species, and the commercial varieties harboring Pm21 have been widely used in wheat production with more than 4 million hectares in China.Owing to the recombination inhibition of alien chromosomes, the development of cytogenetic stocks has allowed the gradual narrowing of the physical location of the Pm21-containing chromosomal region and the identification of candidate genes. Development of the whole-arm translocation line T6VS $6 AL led to the identification of the Pm21 locus on the 6VS arm (Chen et al., 1995), after which development of the resistant deletion stock del. 6VS-1 (fraction length [FL] 0.58) and susceptible deletion stock del. 6VS-2 (FL 0.45) subsequently resulted in the location of its chromosome region from FL 0.45 to FL 0.58 (Cao et al., 2011). The development of two translocation lines, NAU418 and NAU419, which involves small segments of 6VS, then resulted in the definition of Pm21 to chromosomal region between molecular markers CINAU273 and CINAU276 (Chen et al., 2013). We previously identified the Stpk-V gene as a key member of Pm21 gene locus; this gene was located in the 6VS FL 0.45-FL 0.58 region and also in the introgressed segment in NAU418 and NAU419. Overexpression of Stpk-V resulted in enhanced broad-spectrum resistance to powdery mildew, while Stpk-V silencing significantly but not completely compromised the resistance of T6VS $6 AL (Cao et al., 2011). The alien segment identified by genomic in situ hybridization (GISH) in the previous cytogenetic stocks was too large for mapping Pm21 gene; moreover, a lack of both reference data and lossof-function mutants throughout the process of cloning this alien gene has limited its genetic elucidation. Therefore, whether a cluster of genes at the Pm21 gene locus contribute to the powdery mildew resistance remains unknown. In this study, comprehensive approaches including cytogenetic stock development, mutagenesis, resistance gene enrichment and sequencing (RenSeq)-PacBio, long-range assembly, and functional analysis were subsequently used to successfully clone the Pm21 gene.
