1
What is gene pyramiding ?
Gene pyramiding is defined as a method aimed at assembling multiple desirable
genes from multiple parents into single genotype for specific trait.
Pyramid could be constructed with major gene, minor gene, effective genes,
ineffective genes, race-specific genes, non-race specific genes, or any other types
of host gene that confers resistance.
2
Why gene pyramiding?
Enhancing trait performance by combining two or more genes.
Remedy of deficits by introgression of genes from other sources.
Increasing the durability of disease resistance.
Broadening the genetic basis of released cultivars.
3
Types of gene pyramiding
Conventional Technique
Serial gene pyramiding : Genes are deployed in same plant one after one
Molecular technique
Simultaneous gene pyramiding : Genes are deployed at a time in a single plant
4
(Hospital et al.,2004)
Gene pyramiding scheme cumulating six target genes.
5
Different schemes of marker-assisted backcrossing for gene pyramiding
RP- Recurrent parent; DP- Donor parent; BC-Backcross; IRP- Improved recurrent parent. A. Stepwise transfer; B. Simultaneous transfer; C. Simultaneous and stepwise transfer. Joshi and Nayak (2010)

EFFICIENCY OF GENE PYRAMIDING
A MAS based gene pyramiding scheme based on a cascading pedigree is less
expensive and requires the smallest cumulated population size of all the schemes. The
average transmission probability is 0.9975.
Gene pyramiding scheme based on the crosses of founding parents the population size
is somewhat higher. The average transmission probability is 0.9967.
(Hospital et al.,2004)
7
Effectiveness of marker-assisted backcrossing for gene pyramiding depends upon
Distance between the closest markers and the target gene
Number of target genes to be transferred
Genetic base of the trait
Number of individuals that can be analyzed
Genetic background in which the target gene has to be transferred
Type of molecular marker used
Available technical facilities

ToLCV Disease Severity Index
DSI =0 No symptoms
DSI=1 Some symptoms at new growing point but only visible from close distance
DSI=2 Symptoms are visible from 2 feet but still localized to new growing points
DSI=3 Symptoms are visible all over the plant
DSI=4 Symptoms are so severe and plant are stunted and stop growing

Pyramiding Ty-2 and Ty-3 for ToLCD
Disease reaction to Tomato leaf curl Bangalore virus (ToLCBV), Tomato leaf curl New Delhi virus (ToLCNDV) and Tomato leaf curl Palampur virus (ToLCPalV) by pyramided lines and tomato lines differing for presence of Ty genes, 60 days post-agroinoculation. Tomato cultivar Punjab Chhuhara is a susceptible control.

Pyramiding for quality traits and its effect on yield
25
S. pennellii introgression lines have been found to be powerful
material for dissecting plant yield and fruit quality (Gur and Zamir
2004; Rousseaux et al. 2005; Stevens et al.2007).
S. pennellii introgression lines also used for enhacning carotenoids,
fruit weight and composition in sugars and acids, antioxidant
compounds, volatile aromas and various metabolites (Lippman et al.
2007).
Introgressions originating from S. pennellii were introduced into lines
of processing tomato, and the resulting hybrid AB2 is presently a
leading variety in California (http://www.ptab.org/ranking9.htm),
which is the largest producer of processing tomatoes in the world.

Effect of gene pyramiding on yield
Sacco et al.,2013 28
Gene pyramiding in tomato is mainly done for TyLCV, drought and quality characters.
The pyramided tomato lines developed can be important genetic resources for sustainable tomato production
in areas affected by tomato leaf curl virus disease.
Marker-assisted selection for TyLCV resistance genes offers many advantages, including the possibility of
eliminating susceptible plants in a segregating population before transplanting, and the identification of
plants homozygous for Ty-2 and Ty-3 or other combinations in early generations so that selection in later
generations could focus on horticultural, fruit quality or nutritional traits.
The combination of multiple wild introgressions is likely to also bring negative horticultural traits caused by
linked genes. Therefore it would be useful to generate and use minimal introgression lines for pyramiding of
different specific genes.
