Summary Pm10 and Pm15, resistance genes to Erysiphe graminis f. sp. agropyri, are located on the D genome of common wheat. It was determined whether or not they were carried by existing lines of the D genome donor, Aegilops squarrosa, using the gene-for-gene relationship. Two lines of Ae. squarrosa tested (one was var. meyeri and the other was var. anathera) were susceptible to culture Tk-1 of E. graminis f. sp. tritici and were highly resistant to culture Ak-1 of E. graminis f. sp. agropyri. The two lines were inoculated with an F1 population derived from the cross Ak-1 × Tk-1. Comparative analyses of the segregation patterns revealed that Ppm10 and Ppm15, avirulence genes corresponding to Pm10 and Pm15, respectively, are involved in the avirulence of Ak-1 on var. meyeri and var. anathera, respectively. According to the gene-for-gene relationship, var. meyeri and var. anathera were inferred to carry Pm10 and Pm15, respectively. Analysis with a synthetic hexaploid confirmed the inference.
