Chaudhary Charan Singh Haryana Agricultural University, Hisar

Chaudhary Charan Singh Haryana Agricultural University popularly known as HAU, is one of Asia's biggest agricultural universities, located at Hisar in the Indian state of Haryana. It is named after India's seventh Prime Minister, Chaudhary Charan Singh. It is a leader in agricultural research in India and contributed significantly to Green Revolution and White Revolution in India in the 1960s and 70s. It has a very large campus and has several research centres throughout the state. It won the Indian Council of Agricultural Research's Award for the Best Institute in 1997. HAU was initially a campus of Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana. After the formation of Haryana in 1966, it became an autonomous institution on February 2, 1970 through a Presidential Ordinance, later ratified as Haryana and Punjab Agricultural Universities Act, 1970, passed by the Lok Sabha on March 29, 1970. A. L. Fletcher, the first Vice-Chancellor of the university, was instrumental in its initial growth.

    SSR markers for resistance to Karnal bunt (Neovossia indica) in bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)
    (CCSHAU, 2015) Ravika; Chhabra, A. K.
    Present study was carried out to screen 85 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) of cross Aldan (resistant) / WH542 (susceptible) for Karnal bunt resistance and to identify putative SSR markers and validate known markers associated with Karnal bunt resistance in wheat. There was significant variation among all the recombinant inbred lines for percentage and coefficient of infection to Karnal bunt. Most of the RILs (53) and (57) showed up to 5% infection during the year 2012 and 2013 and thus were resistant. The percentage of infection (PI) in the susceptible RILs was up to 52.46% and 43.22% in the year 2012 and 2013 respectively, whereas, coefficient of infection on RILs was up to 21.30% and 17.46 % in the year 2012 and 2013, respectively. Analysis of variance revealed considerable magnitude of variability among different RILs for all morphological traits studied namely, plant height, spike length, days to flowering, days to maturity, tillers/plant, 1000 grain weight and grain yield per meter row. A total of 45 SSR markers were used to screen parental genotypes out of these 15 were amplified. These 15 SSR markers were used to screen 20 selected RILs and a fingerprinting database was generated. Out of these 15, 6 were polymorphic and had presence of bands of different molecular weights for resistant and susceptible lines. Genetic similarity analysis showed that parental genotypes were quite distinct from each other. The cluster analysis led to distribution of parents and their RILs in to two groups at the similarity coefficient value of 0.31. Major cluster I, included resistant parent Aldan with resistant lines except one susceptible line in this group and major cluster II had susceptible parent WH542 and susceptible lines. Bulk segregant analysis showed that three primers (Xgwm637, Xgwm337, Xgwm538) which were already reported to be associated with Karnal bunt resistance, also showed association with Karnal bunt resistance in population under study. These three markers were further used to screen on whole population and results were confirmed. Hence, these markers may be used for marker assisted selection for Karnal bunt resistance in early segregating generations of wheat.

    Genetic analysis of grain filling components using molecular markers in RILs of bread wheat (Triticum aestivum)
    (CCSHAU, 2013) Gollen, Babita; Subhadra Singh
    A total of 103 F10 RILs of bread wheat derived from HUW-510 x WH-730 were evaluated for their grain filling process under normal sown (NS) and late sown (LS) field experiments conducted in Rabi seasons of 2010-11 and 2011-12.An รก-design in replicates with 15 block each was used for evaluation. The grain filling was studied by sampling the developing grains at 5 - day intervals after days to anthesis (DAA) till physiological maturity. The process of grain filling was characterized by estimating 3 parameters of grain development, namely final grain weight (W), maximum grain filling rate (R) and grain filling duration (GFD) by fitting non-linear logistic regression. Highly significant genotypic differences existed for all the three grain filling traits. However, a comparisons of : RILs with that of parents, between parents and among RILs revealed gene dispersion between parents. This inference was substantiated by the observation of transgressive segregants in both positive and negative directions for all the traits in the RIL population. Selective genotyping method of QTL detection was used and a total of 300 SSR primers were screened in a sub-population of 37 RILs and 112 primers were found to be polymorphic. Linkage map was constructed using 99 unambiguous polymorphic markers. QTL detection for W, R, GFD and also TGW and KPS was performed using single marker analysis (SMA) and composite interval mapping (CIM). A total of 61 putative QTLs using SMA and a total of 23 major QTLs were detected using CIM. Some QTLs in coupling and some in repulsion phase were observed and explained positive and negative associations respectively between traits. A number of QTLs for increasing the grain filling rate (R) and reducing the grain filling duration (GFD),were found to be useful to counteract the terminal heat stress . These QTLs may be exploited for genetic improvement of the wheat. Markers Xgwm95 and barc21 were found to be closely linked to QTLs for R and GFD and can be used for MAS after validation.
