Extended Data Fig. 7. Wheat curl mite (WCM) symptoms in Aegilops tauschii and introgression of WCM resistance into wheat.

Extended Data Fig. 7

a, Phenotype scale used to characterize Ae. tauschii response to WCM infestation. Symptoms used were leaf trapping and leaf curliness. The visual scale ranged from 0 to 4, with 0 equivalent to no symptoms and 1 to 4 denoting increasing levels of curliness or trapped leaves indicative of susceptibility. b, Delineation of Ae. tauschii Lineage 1 accession TA2397 carrying wheat curl mite resistance introgressed into wheat line KS96WGRC40. The retained polymorphic markers were obtained by pairwise comparisons of the Ae. tauschii donor with the corresponding wheat line. KS96WGRC40 is the original line where Cmc4 was mapped. c, The donor of resistance in wheat line TAM 112 is the Lineage 2 accession TA1618. Wheat lines TAM 115 and TAM 204 are both resistant through TAM 112. The black vertical line indicates the Cmc4 position. The three grey dashed vertical lines denote the size of the introgressed fragments, 7.9 Mb, 11.9 Mb, and 41.5 Mb, in the wheat lines TAM 115, TAM 112 and TAM 204, and KS96WGRC40, respectively. SNP density is based on number of SNPs within 1 Mb bins.
