    Notes: Abstract We have used restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) to map genes in mungbean (Vigna radiata) that confer partial resistance to the powdery mildew fungus, Erysiphe polygoni. DNA genotypes for 145 RFLP loci spanning 1570 centimorgans of the mungbean genome were assayed in a population of 58 F2 plants. This population was derived from a cross between a moderately powdery mildew resistant (“VC3980A”) and a susceptible (“TC1966”) mungbean parent. F3 lines derived from the F2 plants were assayed in the field for powdery mildew response and the results were compared to the RFLP genotype data, thereby identifying loci associated with powdery mildew response. A total of three genomic regions were found to have an effect on powdery mildew response, together explaining 58% of the total variation. At 65 days after planting, two genomic regions were significantly associated with powdery mildew resistance. For both loci, the allele from “VC3890A” was associated with increased resistance. At 85 days, a third genomic region was also associated with powdery mildew response. For this locus, the allele from the susceptible parent (“TC1966”) was the one associated with higher levels of powdery mildew resistance. These results indicate that putative partial resistance loci for powdery mildew in mungbean can be identified with DNA markers, even in a population of modest size analyzed at a single location in a single year.

    Notes: Summary Bruchids (genus Callosobruchus) are among the most destructive insect pests of mungbeans and other members of the genus, Vigna. Genetic resistance to bruchids was previously identified in a wild mungbean relative, TC1966. To analyze the underlying genetics, accelerate breeding, and provide a basis for map-based cloning of this gene, we have mapped the TC1966 bruchid resistance gene using restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) markers. Fifty-eight F2 progeny from a cross between TC1966 and a susceptible mungbean cultivar were analyzed with 153 RFLP markers. Resistance mapped to a single locus on linkage group VIII, approximately 3.6 centimorgans from the nearest RFLP marker. Because the genome of mungbean is relatively small (estimated to be between 470 and 560 million base pairs), this RFLP marker may be suitable as a starting point for chromosome walking. Based on RFLP analysis, an individual was also identified in the F2 population that retained the bruchid resistance gene within a tightly linked double crossover. This individual will be valuable in developing resistant mungbean lines free of linkage drag.
