Abstract
Resistance loci for seedling-stage resistance to net blotch disease (Drechslera teres) in barley were mapped with molecular markers in an F2 population derived from a cross between the susceptible barley cultivar ‘Arena’ and the resistant Ethiopian landrace ‘Hor 9088’. Disease reactions were scored with first and second leaves of 2-week-old plants 7 and 9 days after inoculation with a single spore-derived isolate. For linkage analysis, 22 RFLP markers and 284 AFLP markers were used. The seven linkage groups covered 1153.3 cM with an average marker interval of 3.76 cM. The resistance was determined to be inherited in a quantitative manner. Altogether, 12 QTLs were mapped with positions depending on the leaf used for testing and the time period after infection. Heritability in the broad sense ranged between 0.21 and 0.37.
