Genetic diversity of pear cultivars using SSR markers and their reactions to pear rust (Gymnosporangium fuscum)

Abstract

Commonly grown in different ecological conditions of Turkey and the world, pear (Pyrus communis L.), as a plant species, has a long cultivation history in Turkey. However, its unique genetic resources are in danger of extinction due to changes in the agro-ecosystem and genetic erosion. In addition, pear rust caused by Gymnosporangium fuscum is one of the significant diseases of pear. Severe economic losses have been reported in some pear orchards near the extensive juniper populations. In the present study, the genetic diversity and sensitivity level to pear rust (Gymnosporangium fuscum) of 25 local and commercially important pear varieties grafted on seedling and Quince A (QA) was determined using 13 SSR primers. The selected verities were clustered into two major groups that were closely related. The SSR markers provided reliable genotyping and demonstrated their usefulness for identifying pear genetic diversity. The difference between years and rootstocks according to disease severity rates was found to be statistically significant. Although none of the pear varieties assessed in these experiments were resistant to rust, the disease severity of the pear varieties of QA rootstock was generally higher than that of the seedling varieties.
