abstract = {【Objective】To clarify the virulence structure and genetic diversity of Pst populations in the major winter-increasing areas of China, and to provide reference for the prevention and control of Pst and the rational layout of wheat resistance genes in the winter-increasing areas and the wheat production in Huang-huai-hai.【Method】A total of 148 Pst isolates were collected and isolated from the major winter-increasing areas such as Sichuan Basin, Hubei and southern Henan, and the virulence phenotype was identified by using Chinese differentials and single-gene lines, and 17 pairs of KASP-SNP primers were used to mark the isolates and complete the genotype analysis.【Result】Based on the Chinese differentials, 14 known races and 63 unknown pathotypes were identified, among which CYR34 (16.2%), G22-14 (12.2%), CYR32 (6.8%), CYR33 (5.4%) were the dominant races (pathotypes); based on the single-gene lines, 113 races (pathotypes) were identified, among which race1 (7.4%), race2 (3.4%), race3 (3.4%) were the dominant races (pathotypes). The Guinong 22 group was the largest epidemic group of Pst population in China’s winter-increasing area, and all tested Pst isolates did not infect single-gene lines varieties carrying Yr5 and Yr15. The virulence phenotype and genotype of CYR34 and G22-14 showed diversification by single-gene lines virulence identification and molecular marker, indicating that there was high differentiation within these two dominant races. The clustering based on the virulence data of two sets of differentials showed that the Pst populations in Sichuan Basin and southern Hubei were similar, while the Pst populations in northwestern Hubei and southern Henan were similar; the genetic clustering based on KASP-SNP molecular data showed that there was genotype differentiation between the Pst populations in Sichuan Basin, southern Hubei and northwestern Hubei, southern Henan; Structure analysis showed that Sichuan Basin, southern Hubei population mainly had two genetic backgrounds, northwestern Hubei, southern Henan population mainly had one genetic background; population genetic differentiation analysis showed that Sichuan Basin Pst population and southern Henan Pst population had the largest Fst value, which was 0.118, with the largest genetic difference and obvious genetic differentiation; northwestern Hubei population and southern Henan population had the smallest degree of genetic differentiation, Fst value was 0.010; gene flow analysis obtained Nm value between northwestern Hubei population and southern Henan population was 25.236, Nm>4, there was a high-level gene flow between them, northwestern Hubei and southern Henan population and Sichuan Basin population had Nm values of 2.923 and 1.864 respectively, both had a low-level gene flow; genetic diversity analysis results showed that Sichuan Basin, southern Hubei region Pst population had a high-level of genetic diversity, northwestern Hubei, southern Henan Pst population had a low-level of genetic diversity. The above conclusions all support that Sichuan Basin, southern Hubei population has genetic differentiation with northwestern Hubei, southern Henan population.【Conclusion】Single-gene lines can accurately identify Chinese Pst races; Pst populations in China’s major winter-increasing areas have different sources.}
