Ruy Rezende Fontes . Chefe-Geral da Embrapa Hortaliças RESUMO Como resultado de repetidas viagens de coleta aos Estados da Região Sul brasileira foi feita uma revisão na Seção Tuberarium, do gênero Solanum. Das seis Taxa brasileiras descritas, apenas as seguintes espécies são reconhecidas: Solanum chacoense Bitter, S. commersonii Dunal e S. malmeanum Bitter. A primeira dessas espécies está bem distribuída em cinco estados, estendendo-se da fronteira com o Paraguai até o Oceano Atlântico. Um clone tripl6ide dessa espécie (antigamente denominado calvescens) estende­ se até os 21 0 de latitude no Estado de Minas Gerais. Uma variante de S. chacoense apresenta folíolos estreitos. Foi antigamente descrita como S. muelleri e desenvolve-se na área leste dos Estados do Paraná e Santa Catarina. A espécie S. cqmmersonii s6 é encontrada na costa leste do Rio Grande do Sul. O ponto mais setentrional de ocorrência localiza-se na Baía de Tubarão, no Oceano Atlântico (Santa Catarina, 28 0 de latitude), onde é denominada localmente acroleucum. O local original de coleta de S. malmeanum foi junto ao Rio Ijuí no Estado do Rio Grande do Sul. Essa batata é resistente às geadas e s6 floresce no inverno. A sua área de ocorrência estende-se até às regiões vizinhas da Argentina, Uruguai e Paraguai. Sob o ponto de vista citotaxonômico é notável que, das três espécies que tuberizam no Brasil, além dos clones dipl6ides normais, também ocorrem clones tripl6ides que s6 se reproduzem vegetativamente. Palavras-chave: Solanum commersonii Dunal, Solanum malmeanum Bitter, Solanum chacoense Bitter, batata silvestre, Brasil. ABSTRACT Wildpotatoes of Brazll. Section Tuberarium of Solanum in South Brazil. After repeated collection trips for Sola num in Southern Brazil, a revision was undertaken in the tuberbearing species of Section Tuberariumfrom this country. Only the following species: S. chacoense, S. commersonii and S. malmeanum have been recognised as valid between the six Taxa described formerly from Brazil. The first mentioned species covers five federal states extending its wide range from the Para­ guayan border in the West until the Atlantic Coastal range in the East. A triploid clone of this species (formerly known as S. calvescens) reaches northward until the 21 0 Lat. in Minas Gerais. Another local form with rather narrow leaflets (described fifty years ago as Solanum muellen) grows in the eastern part of the area, mainly in Paraná and Santa Catarina. S. commersonii is restricted to the eastern part of Rio Grande do Sul and has its northern border in the Bay of Tubarão (28° Lat), with its local form once described as S. acroleucum. The original discovery site of S. malmeanum is situated at the Rio Ijuí in the Federal state of Rio Grande do Sul, but it spreads westward until the border provinces of Argentina, Uruguay and Para­ guay. From the cytotaxonomical viewpoint is remarkable that from the three mentioned species exist be­ sides the normal diploid species also triploid clones which survive and multiply only vegetatively. Keywords: Solanum commersonii Dunal, Solanum malmeanum Bitter, Solanum chacoense Bitter, wild potatoes, Brazil. • Quando na Europa se observa o "pool" de genes de batatas silvestres sul-americano, esquece-se muitas vezes que a Seção Tuberarium abrange grandes áreas do sul brasileiro. A área de ocorrência abrange as latitudes 21 a 330 sul, cobrindo vários milhares de quilômetros quadrados. Nos Estados de Minas Gerais e Rio Grande do Sul, localizam-se os "Ioci classici" das seguintes Taxa de Solanum: S. tenue Sendtner (1846), S. acroleucum Bitter (1912), S. calvescecens Bitter (1912), S. malmeanum Bitter (1913), S. mülleri Bitter (1913). O pesquisador alemão Bitter descrevia as espécies, auxiliado por parco material de h~rbáriC? , proveniente em parte de sementes obtidas na Europa. Assim, sua descrição foi incompleta e ,re$ita ~o • material disponível na época. Esses motivos e repetidas expedições de coleta realizadas . o nosso ponto de vista de ser necessária a revisão das espécies que tuberizam no gênero Solanum. Uma vez que algumas das Taxa aqui mencionadas também 'oco.r:rem, ' .. ,] «, . Paraguai e Uruguai e, visando conto mar repetições, citamos aqui os estudos realizados nesses países (Argentina: Brucher, 1956 até 1970, Paraguai: Brucher, 1974, Uruguai: Brücher, 1976). Para os conceitos europeus, é enorme a distância física existente entre as espécies silvestres de batata no Brasil. Por exemplo, Solanum calvescens, que ocorre no Estado de Minas Gerais, situa-se a 2.000 km em linha reta de S. ou S. mülleri, no Estado do Rio Grande do Sul (Fig. 1). Supõe-se que, da mesma forma como foi observado na distribuição de S. chacoense no sul do Brasil, é provável que ocorram espécies silvestres nas áreas ainda inexploradas. Certamente a exploração desses sítios é vantajosa não só por motivos biossistemáticos como também do ponto de vista da fisiologia da resistência das espécies. Sabe se que as espécies da Série Commersoniana (na qual incluímos todas as Solanum brasileiras que tuberizam) possuem valiosos genes de resistência contra bacterioses tropicais (causadas por Pseudomonas e Erwinia) e insetos transmissores de doenças. Diante do fato do crescente plantio comercial de batatas em latitudes tropicais e subtropicais com seus problemas de alta temperatura, umidade do solo e do ar, as espécies brasileiras de Solanum deveriam ser empregadas na hibridação com a batata cultivada (Solanum tuberosum), uma vez que elas passaram pela seleção natural, em condições climáticas idênticas. Do ponto de vista fitogeográfico, a região brasileira aqui descrita, segundo Cabrera (1953) ou Hueck & Seibert (1972), é denominada "Província Paranaense". Sua paisagem é ondulada, cortada por inúmeros cursos de água e originalmente possuía densas florestas. Sua altitude média é de 1.000 m, apresentando pontos isolados de 1.600 m. A precipitação pluviométrica anual é de 1.500 a 2.000 mm, ocorrendo especialmente nos meses quentes de verão. Os meses de invemo são mais secos e apresen­ tam esporadicamente noites com geadas. Em 1975 ocorreu a menor temperatura do século, com -8° C, destruindo quase completamente os plantios de café. Atualmente a Região Sul do Brasil passa por um profundo processo de transformação ecológica, cujo impacto sobre a flora e a fauna é impossível de ser imaginado na Europa. As florestas virgens, antigamente ricas em Araucaria angustifolia, do Paraná, São Paulo, Santa Catarina e Rio Grande do Sul, foram exterminadas quase completamente, dando lugar a imensas pastagens, campos de cereais, de soja, cultivos da videira e cafezais. Dessa forma, os habitat de várias espécies autóctonas foram definitiva- . mente destruídos. Essa rápida e drástica transformação da cobertura vegetal é lastimável, tanto sob o ponto de vista da conservação do solo, como por motivos botânicos pois, foi exatamente nessa área que se concentraram

  • Breeding Virus Resistant Potatoes (Solanum Tuberosum): a Review of Traditional and Molecular Approaches
    Heredity 86 (2001) 17±35 Received 22 December 1999, accepted 20 September 2000 Breeding virus resistant potatoes (Solanum tuberosum): a review of traditional and molecular approaches RUTH M. SOLOMON-BLACKBURN* & HUGH BARKER Scottish Crop Research Institute, Invergowrie, Dundee DD2 5DA, Scotland, U.K. Tetraploid cultivated potato (Solanum tuberosum) is the World's fourth most important crop and has been subjected to much breeding eort, including the incorporation of resistance to viruses. Several new approaches, ideas and technologies have emerged recently that could aect the future direction of virus resistance breeding. Thus, there are new opportunities to harness molecular techniques in the form of linked molecular markers to speed up and simplify selection of host resistance genes. The practical application of pathogen-derived transgenic resistance has arrived with the ®rst release of GM potatoes engineered for virus resistance in the USA. Recently, a cloned host virus resistance gene from potato has been shown to be eective when inserted into a potato cultivar lacking the gene. These and other developments oer great opportunities for improving virus resistance, and it is timely to consider these advances and consider the future direction of resistance breeding in potato. We review the sources of available resistance, conventional breeding methods, marker-assisted selection, somaclonal variation, pathogen-derived and other transgenic resistance, and transformation with cloned host genes. The relative merits of the dierent methods are discussed, and the likely direction of future developments is considered. Keywords: breeding, host gene, potato virus, resistance, review, transgenic. The viruses whether the infection is primary (current season infec- tion) or secondary (tuber-borne).

Clear geographic groups were identified through the use of multivariate analyses. S. chacoensefrom mountain sites in Argentina could be readily distinguished from plains forms from Paraguay, on the basisof severalcorrelated morphological characters. Three isozyme systems,namely phosphoglucose isomerase (PGI), glutamate-oxaloacetate transaminase (GOT) and peroxidase (PRX) were studied using starch gel electrophoresis. The banding patterns indicated that for each isozyme there were several loci, which were polymorphic. A genetic interpretation of one of the PGI loci was made, and indices of genetic diversity and genetic identity calculated. Principal components analysis, cluster analysisand genetic diversity indicated a close relationship between the geographicalgroups. Theseresults are discussedin the context of in situ genetic conservation.

  • A Comprehensive Analysis of RALF Proteins in Green Plants Suggests There Are Two Distinct Functional Groups
    ORIGINAL RESEARCH published: 24 January 2017 doi: 10.3389/fpls.2017.00037 A Comprehensive Analysis of RALF Proteins in Green Plants Suggests There Are Two Distinct Functional Groups Liam Campbell and Simon R. Turner * Faculty of Biology, Medicine and Health, School of Biological Science, University of Manchester, Manchester, UK Rapid Alkalinization Factors (RALFs) are small, cysteine-rich peptides known to be involved in various aspects of plant development and growth. Although RALF peptides have been identified within many species, a single wide-ranging phylogenetic analysis of the family across the plant kingdom has not yet been undertaken. Here, we identified RALF proteins from 51 plant species that represent a variety of land plant lineages. The inferred evolutionary history of the 795 identified RALFs suggests that the family has diverged into four major clades. We found that much of the variation across the family exists within the mature peptide region, suggesting clade-specific functional Edited by: diversification. Clades I, II, and III contain the features that have been identified as Madelaine Elisabeth Bartlett, University of Massachusetts Amherst, important for RALF activity, including the RRXL cleavage site and the YISY motif required USA for receptor binding. In contrast, members of clades IV that represent a third of the total Reviewed by: dataset, is highly diverged and lacks these features that are typical of RALFs. Members of Tatiana Arias, The Corporation for Biological clade IV also exhibit distinct expression patterns and physico-chemical properties.

  • Chemical Ecology of Wild Solanum Spp and Their Interaction with the Colorado Potato Beetle
    CHEMICAL ECOLOGY OF WILD SOLANUM SPP AND THEIR INTERACTION WITH THE COLORADO POTATO BEETLE By Monica J. Hufnagel A THESIS Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Entomology - Master of Science 2015 ABSTRACT CHEMICAL ECOLOGY OF WILD SOLANUM SPP AND THEIR INTERACTION WITH THE COLORADO POTATO BEETLE By Monica J. Hufnagel To date the Colorado potato beetle (CPB) continues to be an important threat for potato growers world-wide. Wild potatoes are a source of a genetic diversity encoding properties such as resistance to pests, which may provide sustainable alternatives to the use of pesticides. First objective was to investigate the effects of single accessions of three wild Solanum species on the growth and development of CPB compared to effects of the cultivated S. tuberosum cv. Atlantic. Larvae consumed significantly less foliage of S. immite and S. pinnatisectum compared to the cultivated potato. Larvae were unable to complete their development on S. immite and significantly fewer completed their development on S. pinnatisectum compared to the cultivated potato. No significant differences were observed between S. chacoense and S. tuberosum. Surprisingly, females laid the greatest amount of eggs on S. immite, while there were no significant differences among the other species in oviposition preference. My second objective was to analyze chemical defenses in the potato species. S. immite and S. pinnatisectum, the least preferred by CPB for larval feeding and larval had two volatiles, limonene and terpinolene, which comprised about 90% of the headspace, suggesting that they could be involved in resistance to CPB.

Bolshaya Morskaya Street 42/44, St Petersburg, 190000 Russia, 4USDA, Agricultural Research Location Wild potatoes occur from the south-western USA (Utah and Colorado), Service, Department of Horticulture, University throughout the tropical highlands of Mexico, Central America and the Andes, of Wisconsin, 1575 Linden Drive, Madison, to Argentina, Chile and Uruguay. WI 53706-1590, USA, 5USDA, Agricultural Research Service, Potato Introduction Station, Methods We compiled 5447 reports of ploidy determination, covering 185 of 4312 Highway 42, Sturgeon Bay, the 187 species, of which 702 determinations are presented here for the first time. We WI 54235-9620, USA assessed the frequency of cytotypes within species, and analysed the geographical and climatic distribution of ploidy levels. Results Thirty-six per cent of the species are entirely or partly polyploid. Multiple cytotypes exist in 21 species, mostly as diploid and triploid, but many more may await discovery. We report the first chromosome count (2n = 24) for Solanum hintonii. Diploids occupy a larger area than polyploids, but diploid and tetraploid species have similar range sizes, and the two species with by far the largest range sizes are tetraploids.
