Compared with the entire Arachis genus, cultivated peanut germplasm has low levels of genetic diversity for several economically important traits, resulting in the need for alternative sources of favorable alleles. Wild diploid species of Arachis are a source of such alleles to improve cultivated peanut for many economically important traits. An A. hypogaea × A. diogoi Hoehne introgression population was produced via the triploid–hexaploid method; the fourth generation after tetraploidy was used to initiate this study. The introgression lines were genotyped using a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) marker array to estimate the percentage of A. diogoi chromatin introgression. Morphologically, the introgression lines varied for an array of measured traits, with the majority being intermediate to the two parents. The average amount of A. diogoi genome introgressed was 8.12% across the tetraploid genome and ranged from 3.00 to 18.14% on individual chromosomes. The average A. diogoi introgression across all lines was 7.70% and ranged from 0.17 to 51.12%. Principal component analysis of morphological data and SNP markers revealed similarities and groupings of introgression lines. This introgression population demonstrates the potential of using wild diploid Arachis species for peanut improvement and has great potential for use in cultivated peanut breeding programs.}, number={2}, journal={CROP SCIENCE}, author={Hancock, Wesley G. and Tallury, Shyam P. and Isleib, Thomas G. and Chu, Ye and Ozias-Akins, Peggy and Stalker, H.

These two lines were tested extensively by the North Carolina Agricultural Research Service from 2006 through 2012 in disease evaluation tests. They have unique alleles introgressed from the diploid (2n = 2x = 20) wild species, A. cardenasii Krapov. & W.C. Gregory. The germplasm lines are also unique in that they exhibited multiple disease resistances superior to the germplasm lines derived from A. cardenasii that were released previously by NCSU. Resistance to multiple diseases included early leaf spot (ELS), Cylindrocladium black rot (CBR), Sclerotinia blight (SB), and tomato spotted wilt (TSW). One of the lines, GP-NC WS 17, also exhibited drought tolerance in field and greenhouse studies. Thus, it can be concluded that these two peanut germplasm lines derived from diploid wild species have multiple biotic stress resistances, specifically for ELS, CBR, SB, and TSWV, as well as abiotic stress resistance in the case of GP-NC WS 17. These two lines should provide unique, improved germplasm for breeders interested in multiple disease resistance and in expanding the germplasm pool of A. hypogaea.}, number={1}, journal={JOURNAL OF PLANT REGISTRATIONS}, author={Tallury, S.

To better understand how freezing affects specific tissue in the over wintering organ (crown) of winter cereal crops, non-acclimated oats (Avena sativa L.) were gradually frozen to −3 °C and tissue damage during recovery was compared to plants that had been supercooled to −3 °C and then frozen suddenly. Percentage of total water frozen, was the same whether crowns were frozen suddenly or gradually although the rate of freezing was considerably different. For example, all available water froze within 3 h in suddenly frozen crowns but it took more than 15 h for all available water to freeze in gradually frozen crowns. When plants were suddenly frozen, cells in the apical meristem were disrupted and apparently killed. In these plants re-growth was limited or non-existent. In contrast, the apical region of plants that were slowly frozen appeared undamaged but extensive vessel plugging was observed in cells of the lower crown, possibly from accumulation of phenolics or from microbial proliferation. These histological observations along with the calorimetric analysis suggested that the apical region was killed by intracellular freezing when frozen suddenly while the crown core was damaged by a process, which either induced production of putative phenolic compounds by the plant and/or permitted what appeared to be microbial proliferation in metaxylem vessels.}, number={1-2}, journal={THERMOCHIMICA ACTA}, author={Livingston, David P., III and Tallury, Shyamalrau P.}, year={2009}, month={Jan}, pages={20–27} } @article{livingston_tuong_haigler_avci_tallury_2009, title={Rapid Microwave Processing of Winter Cereals for Histology Allows Identification of Separate Zones of Freezing Injury in the Crown}, volume={49}, ISSN={0011-183X}, url={http://dx.doi.org/10.2135/cropsci2009.02.0077}, DOI={10.2135/cropsci2009.02.0077}, abstractNote={ABSTRACT}, number={5}, journal={Crop Science}, publisher={Wiley}, author={Livingston, D.

Plants were grown and frozen under controlled conditions and percent survival was evaluated by observing re-growth after freezing. Paraffin embedded sections of plants were triple stained and observed under light microscopy. Histological observations of plants taken 1 week after freezing showed damage analogous to winter cereals in the vascular tissue of roots and leaf axels but no damage to meristematic regions. The LT50 of non-acclimated Arabidopsis decreased from about −6 °C to a minimum of about −13 °C after 7 days of cold-acclimation at 3 °C.

To help clarify the relationship, the allocation of carbohydrates between specific tissues within the over wintering organ (crown) of winter cereals was measured. A winter-hardy and non-winter-hardy oat (Avena sativa L.), and a rye (Secale cereale L.) cultivar were grown and frozen under controlled conditions. Crown tissue was fractionated into an upper portion, called the apical region, and a lower portion, called the lower crown. These tissues were ground in liquid N and extracted with water. Extracts were analyzed by HPLC for the simple sugars, sucrose, glucose, fructose, and for fructan of various size classes. After 3 weeks of cold acclimation at 3 degrees C, carbohydrates accounted for approximately 40% of the dry weight of oats and 60% of the dry weight of rye. The apical region, which is the tissue within the crown that acclimates to the greatest extent, was generally 10% higher in total carbohydrates than the lower crown. During a mild freeze, various carbohydrates were allocated differently between specific tissues in the three genotypes. When frozen, fructan generally decreased to a greater extent in the lower crown than in the apical region but sugars increased more in the apical region than in the lower crown.

Thermal patterns of model systems frozen at –2.6 °C were compared with those of crown tissue from oat ( Avena sativa L.). Thermal patterns of live crowns more closely resembled those of fructan and sugar solutions with filter paper than of plain water or a BSA solution. When the percentage of water freezing in nonacclimated plants at –2.6 °C was manually limited to 10%, the survival was reduced from 100% in supercooled plants to 25%. During cold acclimation, the percentage of water freezing at –2.6 °C went from 79% to 54% after 3 weeks of cold acclimation and resulted in 100% survival. The nucleus of cells in the primary apical meristem of nonacclimated plants appeared to have disintegrated, an effect that was not observed in any cold-acclimated (unfrozen controls) plants. Nuclear pycnosis was observed in leaf sheaths surrounding the meristem and in cells directly below the meristem. Cells of secondary meristems and in the crown core appeared undamaged, but vessels in plants frozen for as little as 30 min were ruptured and appeared plugged. The distinctive nature of injury in the apical meristem and the rapid ability of the plant to acclimate during cold to the stress causing this injury indicate that specific tissue, namely the apical region of the crown, should be the focus of attention when attempting to determine cause and effect between genetics or metabolism and cold acclimation in winter cereals. }, number={2}, journal={CANADIAN JOURNAL OF BOTANY-REVUE CANADIENNE DE BOTANIQUE}, author={Livingston, DP and Tallury, SP and Owens, SA and Livingston, JD and Premkumar, R}, year={2006}, month={Feb}, pages={199–210} } @article{garcia_tallury_stalker_kochert_2006, title={Molecular analysis of Arachis interspecific hybrids}, volume={112}, ISSN={["1432-2242"]}, DOI={10.1007/s00122-006-0236-z}, abstractNote={Incorporation of genetic resistance against several biotic stresses that plague cultivated peanut, Arachis hypogaea (2n = 4x = 40), is an ideal option to develop disease resistant and ecologically safe peanut varieties. The primary gene pool of peanut contains many diploid wild species (2n = 2x = 20) of Arachis, which have high levels of disease and insect resistances. However, transfer of resistant genes from these species into A. hypogaea is difficult due to ploidy level differences and genomic incompatibilities. This study was conducted to monitor alien germplasm transmission, using Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers, from two diploid wild species, A. cardenasii and A. batizocoi, into A. hypogaea. Triploid interspecific hybrids were produced by crossing two A. hypogaea cultivars (NC 6 and Argentine) with the two species and by colchicine-treating vegetative meristems, fertility was restored at the hexaploid (C(o)) level in the four hybrids. Hexaploids were allowed to self-pollinate for four generations, each referred to as a cycle (C1, C2, C3, and C4). At each cycle, a backcross was made with the respective A. hypogaea cultivar as the maternal parent and only lineages tracing back to a single hexaploid hybrid were used for RAPD analysis. Analysis of mapped, species-specific RAPD markers in BC1F1 to BC1F3 hybrids indicated that alien germplasm retention decreased every generation of inbreeding, especially in Argentine and in A. batizocoi crosses. A similar trend was also observed for every cycle in BC1F2 and BC1F3 families, possibly, due to the loss of alien chromosomes following selfing of hexaploids. RAPD marker analysis of 40-chromosome interspecific hybrid derivatives from the four crosses supported previous reports that reciprocal recombination and/or translocations are the predominant mechanisms for exchange of chromosomal segments. No evidence was found for preferential transfer of alien chromosomal regions to specific linkage groups.

The aim of this study was to see if carbohydrate changes in tissue within oat crowns during second phase hardening (sub-zero hardening) are tissue specific. METHODS The lower portion of oat (Avena sativa) crowns was exposed to mild grinding in a blender and the remaining crown meristem complex, consisting of tough root-like vessels, was ground in a device developed specifically for grinding cereal crown tissue. Carbohydrates were extracted by water and measured by HPLC. Carbohydrate concentrations were compared in the two regions of the crown before and after hardening at sub-zero temperatures. KEY RESULTS Fructan of all size classes except DP>6 decreased during sub-zero hardening in both stems (base of leaf sheath) and crown meristem complex. Total simple sugar increase, including sucrose, was significantly higher in the crown meristem complex than in the stem.

Freeze‐induced damage to specific regions of oat (Avena sativa L.) crowns was evaluated by sectioning plants at various stages of recovery after they had been grown and frozen under controlled conditions. Our results confirmed those reported for barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) and wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) that the apical meristem was apparently the tissue in the crown most tolerant of freezing. Photographs of sections during recovery provided evidence that the apical meristem within the crown survived freezing in plants that were rated as nonsurvivors. Closer examination revealed abnormal nuclei in many cells of plants that had been frozen. These cells with condensed and dark red chromatin resembled the description of nuclear pycnosis found in mammalian cells damaged by radiation, extreme abiotic stress, and various carcinogens. The crown meristem complex was separated from the crown and fractionated into two regions: the upper portion of the crown meristem complex, called the apical region, and the lower portion called the crown core. The dry weight of both the apical region and crown core increased during cold‐hardening but the increase in dry weight was higher in the crown core than in the apical region. During cold‐hardening the percentage of total water freezing at −2°C became lower and after 3 wk was 50 and 47% in the apical region and the crown core, respectively. The initial freezing rate of the apical region was higher than that of the crown core and reached equilibrium about 2 h earlier than the crown core.

This study was conducted to ( a ) understand the processes of early embryo growth and development in four Arachis species, two A. hypogaea cultivars and their hybrids and ( b ) identify parental compatibilities in reciprocal crosses of A. hypogaea. The results indicated that delayed fertilization beyond 24 h, coupled with slow proembryo growth, leads to embryo abortion in many interspecific crosses. For example, in female A. cardenasii crosses, lack of or delayed fertilization leads to failure to obtain hybrids. When A. batizocoi was used as a female parent, delayed fertilization and the inability of quiescent proembryos to resume growth after soil penetration caused abortion. Embryos of A. hypogaea × A. glandulifera crosses developed normally during the first 21 d after fertilization, but then aborted at a later time. In this study, A. hypogaea was always a better female parent than the wild Arachis species. Increasing the number of pollinations per cross, using the cultivated species as the female parent, utilizing different A. hypogaea varieties, and embryo rescue techniques are suggested to improve the probability of obtaining interspecific hybrids in Arachis.}, number={4}, journal={ANNALS OF BOTANY}, author={TALLURY, SP and STALKER, HT and PATTEE, HE}, year={1995}, month={Oct}, pages={397–404} }
