We identified Rph24 as a locus in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) controlling adult plant resistance (APR) to leaf rust, caused by Puccinia hordei. The locus was previously reported as a quantitative trait locus in barley line ND24260-1 and named qRphND. We crossed ND24260-1 to the leaf-rust-susceptible standard Gus and determined inheritance patterns in the progeny. For the comparative marker frequency analysis (MFA), resistant and susceptible tails of the F₂ were genotyped with Diversity Arrays Technology genotyping-by-sequencing (DArT-Seq) markers. The Rph24 locus was positioned at 55.5 centimorgans on chromosome 6H on the DArT-Seq consensus map. Evaluation of F₂:₃ families confirmed that a single locus from ND24260-1 conferred partial resistance. The haploblock strongly associated with the Rph24 locus was used to estimate the allele frequency in a collection of 282 international barley cultivars. Rph24 was frequently paired with APR locus Rph20 in cultivars displaying high levels of APR to leaf rust. The markers identified in this study for Rph24 should be useful for marker-assisted selection.
