Control of barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV) in oat and wheat and identification of a RAPD marker associated with BYDV tolerance in oat

Populations of F$\sb2$ and F$\sb3$ plants from intraspecific spring oat (Avena sativa L.) crosses were grown in the greenhouse using a modified single-seed descent method with 100 plants per 15 cm pot. Subpopulations were inoculated with the BYDV-PAV-IL strain (1) in the F$\sb2$ generations only, and (2) in the F$\sb2$ and F$\sb3$ generations, using viruliferous aphids (Rhopalosiphum padi L.). These subpopulations were compared to uninoculated subpopulations. Inoculation did not increase the frequency of BYDV tolerant genotypes in the four crosses studied.
