Wheat line Tr129 is resistant to stem rust, caused by Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici (Pgt). The resistance in Tr129 was reportedly derived from Aegilops triuncialis, but the origin and genetics of resistance have not been confirmed. Here, genomic in situ hybridization (GISH) showed that no Ae. triuncialis chromatin was present in Tr129. Genetic and phenotypic analysis was conducted on F and DH populations from the cross RL6071/Tr129. Seedlings were tested with six Pgt races and were genotyped using an Illumina iSelect 90 K SNP array and kompetitive allele specific PCR (KASP) markers. Mapping and phenotyping showed that Tr129 carried four stem rust resistance (Sr) genes on chromosome arms 2BL (Sr9b), 4AL (Sr7b), 6AS (Sr8a), and 6DS (SrTr129). SrTr129 co-segregated with markers for SrCad, however Tr129 has a unique haplotype suggesting the resistance could be new. Analysis of a RL6071/Peace population revealed that like SrTr129, SrCad is ineffective against three North American races. This new understanding of SrCad will guide its use in breeding. Tr129 and the DNA markers reported here are useful resources for improving stem rust resistance in cultivars.

The Yamanaka factors (YFs), a set of four transcription factors, are widely studied for their ability to dedifferentiate somatic cells into a pluripotent state. In a recent study, Shen and colleagues show that transient expression of YFs in the mouse brain expands the developing cortex and prevents cognitive decline in an Alzheimer's disease (AD) model.

Establishing a Severe Corneal Inflammation Model in Rats Based on Corneal Epithelium Curettage Combined with Corneal Sutures.

Department of Ophthalmology, the Affiliated Hospital of Guizhou Medical University; School of Clinical Medicine, Guizhou Medical University;

Corneal inflammation, especially severe corneal inflammation, plays a significant role in the development of corneal limbal stem cell dysfunction. Constructing appropriate animal models can help us focus on the effects of severe inflammation on corneal limbal stem cells. A 2 mm rust remover was used to remove the central corneal epithelium of Sprague Dawley (SD) rats to create an injury.
