Abstract

Bacterial leaf streak (BLS) is a sporadic yet damaging disease of cereals that is growing in importance across the Upper Midwest production region. In barley (Hordeum vulgare ssp. vulgare), this disease is caused primarily by the bacterium Xanthomonas translucens pv. translucens. Accessions resistant to BLS have been reported in past studies, but few have been rigorously validated in the field. To identify accessions carrying diverse resistance alleles to BLS, a largescale germplasm screening study was undertaken against strain CIX95 of X. translucens pv. translucens in St. Paul and Crookston, Minnesota, in 2020 and 2021. The germplasm screened was diverse and included adapted breeding lines from two improvement programs, two landrace panels (one global and one from Ethiopia/Eritrea), introgression lines from wild barley (H. vulgare ssp. spontaneum) in the genetic background of barley cultivar 'Rasmusson', and an assemblage of accessions previously reported to carry BLS resistance. Of the 2,094 accessions evaluated in this study, 32 (1.5%) exhibited a consistently high level of resistance across locations and years and had heading dates similar to standard cultivars grown in the region. Accessions resistant to BLS were identified from all germplasm panels tested, providing genetically diverse sources for barley improvement programs focused on breeding for resistance to this important bacterial disease.
