2020 article

Identification and editing of a hybrid lethality gene expands the range of interspecific hybridization potential in Nicotiana

Ma, J., Hancock, W. G., Nifong, J. M., Kernodle, S. P., & Lewis, R. S. (2020, July 1). Theoretical and Applied Genetics, Vol. 133, pp. 2915–2925.

By: J. Ma n, W. Hancock n, J. Nifong n, S. Kernodle n & R. Lewis n 

MeSH headings : CRISPR-Cas Systems; Crosses, Genetic; DNA Transposable Elements; Gene Editing; Genes, Lethal; Genes, Plant; Hybridization, Genetic; Tobacco / genetics
topics (OpenAlex): Plant-Microbe Interactions and Immunity; Plant tissue culture and regeneration; Plant Pathogenic Bacteria Studies
TL;DR: Gene editing was used to verify that Nt6549g30 is the gene at the N. tabacum Hybrid Lethality 1 (NtHL1) locus controlling the hybrid lethality reaction in crosses with N. africana and demonstrate the possibility of expanding the gene pool for a crop species through gene editing.

Evaluating diverse systems of tobacco genetic resistance to Phytophthora nicotianae in Yunnan, China

Zeng, J. M., Nifong, J., Liu, Y., Huang, C. J., Fang, D. H., Lewis, R. S., & Li, Y. P. (2019, September 5). Plant Pathology, Vol. 68, pp. 1616–1623.

By: J. Zeng*, J. Nifong n, Y. Liu *, C. Huang *, D. Fang*, R. Lewis n , Y. Li*

author keywords: black shank; resistance; tobacco
topics (OpenAlex): Plant Pathogens and Resistance; Plant Disease Resistance and Genetics; Plant-Microbe Interactions and Immunity
TL;DR: Findings suggest that both Wz− and Beinhart 1000‐mediated resistance have important commercial value in flue‐cured tobacco breeding programmes in China and Cultivars developed for black shank resistance in China may also have utility in other tobacco‐growing areas. (via Semantic Scholar)

2019 article

Genetic analysis of Phn7.1, a major QTL conferring partial resistance to Phytophthora nicotianae in Nicotiana tabacum

Ma, J. M., Heim, C., Humphry, M., Nifong, J. M., & Lewis, R. S. (2019, January 1). Molecular Breeding, Vol. 39.

By: J. Ma n, C. Heim n, M. Humphry*, J. Nifong n & R. Lewis n 

topics (OpenAlex): Plant Pathogens and Resistance; Plant Pathogens and Fungal Diseases; Plant-Microbe Interactions and Immunity
TL;DR: Genotyping of historical materials with Phn7.1-associated SNP markers strongly suggests that the favorable Phn 7.1 allele(s) is present in most modern US flue-cured cultivars and absent in early predecessor germplasm. (via Semantic Scholar)
