| Research Abstract |
Comparative analysis of homologs of a rice blast resistance gene Pit in gramineous species revealed that Pit coding sequences exist in not only Oryza but also Secale, Triticum, Hordeum and Lolium. Interestingly, specific sequences of susceptive-type Pit homologs in AA genome group of Oryza exhibited high homology to those of Pit homologs in BB and EE genome group of Oryza, showing that the resistant-type Pit(in some varieties of O. sativa) gene is recently evolved from the susceptive-type Pit gene. These results enabled to produce functional markers of Pit that allow for identification of the resistant-type Pit gene in rice germplasm. Such markers have a great advantage in resistance breeding because they can assess the existence of the resistance-type Pit gene without laborious inoculation tests.
