Abstract
Diseases are the main problem for barley in Latin America. Spot blotch (caused by Cochliobolus sativus), stripe rust (caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. hordei), and leaf rust (caused by Puccinia hordei) are three of the most important diseases that attack the crop in the region. Chemical control of those diseases is both economically and environmentally inappropriate, making the development of durable resistant varieties a priority for breeding programs. However, the availability of new resistance sources is a limiting factor. The objective of this work was to detect genomic regions associated to durable resistance to spot blotch, stripe rust, and leaf rust in Latin American germplasm. Associations between disease severities measured in several environments across the Americas and 1,536 SNPs (belonging to the barley OPA1) in a population of 360 genotypes were used to identify genomic regions associated with disease. Several models for association mapping with mixed models were compared. These models considered either the structure of the population (Q) through PCA analysis, the identity by descent through coancestry information (K), or both. Results show significant marker-trait associations for spot blotch and leaf and stripe rust. Associations are environment specific.
