Lrl is a dominant leaf rust resistance gene located on chromosome 5DL of bread wheat and the wild species Aegilops tauschii. In this study, three polymorphic markers (WR001, WR002, and WR003) were developed from resistance gene analogs (RGAs) clustering around the Lrl locus. Using these and other markers, Lrl was mapped to a genetic interval of 0.79 cM in Ae. tauschii and 0.075 cM in wheat. The CAPS marker WR003, derived from LR1RGA1, co-segregated with Lrl in both mapping populations of wheat and Ae. tauschii. For isolation of Lrl, two genomic BAC libraries (from Ae. tauschii and hexaploid wheat) were screened using the tightly flanking marker PSR567F and a set of nested primers derived from the conserved region of the RGA sequences. Approximately 400 kb BAC contig spanning the Lrl locus was constructed. The LR1RGA1 encoding a CC-NBS-leucine-rich repeat (LRR) type of protein was the only one of the four RGAs at the Lrl locus, which co-segregated with leaf rust resistance. Therefore, it represents a very good candidate for Lrl. The allelic sequences of LR1RGA1 from resistant and susceptible lines revealed a divergent DNA sequence block of ∼605 bp encoding the LRR repeats 9-15, whereas the rest of the sequences were mostly identical. Within this sequence block, the 48 non-synonymous changes resulted in 44 amino acid differences. This indicates that LR1RGA1 likely evolved through one or more recombination or gene conversion events with unknown genes.
