Genetic characterisation of new rust resistance loci in wheat using cytogenetic/low-throughput genotyping systems required at least 5 years. Development of next-generation sequencing (NGS) based molecular marker genotyping platforms in the last decade has provided scientists with the genomic resources to expedite precise mapping of target loci. Here, we describe methodologies for genetic analysis and application of NGS-based resources to determine the precise genomic locations of rust resistance loci in wheat and development of closely linked markers for marker assisted selection.

The fungus Eriks () is the cause of leaf rust, one of the most damaging diseases, which significantly reduces common wheat yields. In -resistant adult plants, an APR-type resistance is observed, which protects the plant against multiple pathogen races and is distinguished by its persistence under production conditions. With a more complete understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying the function of APR genes, it will be possible to develop new strategies for resistance breeding in wheat.

Pathogenesis-related protein-1 (PR1) encodes a water-soluble protein produced in plants after pathogen infection or abiotic stimulation. It plays a crucial role in plant-induced resistance by attacking pathogens, degrading cell wall macromolecules and pathogen toxins, and inhibiting the binding of viral coat proteins to plant receptor molecules. Compared to model plants, the mechanism of action of PR1 in wheat remains underexplored.

Wheat leaf rust caused by () is a prevalent disease worldwide, seriously threatening wheat production. acquires nutrients from host cells via haustoria and secretes effector proteins to modify and regulate the expression of host disease resistance genes, thereby facilitating pathogen growth and reproduction. The study of effector proteins is of great significance for clarifying the pathogenic mechanisms of and effective control of leaf rust.
