N2 - Sugarcane mosaic virus (SCMV) is the causal pathogen for a severe mosaic virus disease of maize worldwide. In our previous research, the maize resistance gene analog (RGA) Pic19 and its three cognate BAC contigs were mapped to the same region as the SCMV resistance gene Scmv1. Here we report the isolation and characterization of the Pic19R gene family members from the inbred line FAP1360A, which shows complete resistance to SCMV. Two primer pairs were designed based on the conserved regions among the known Pic19 paralogs and used for rapid amplification of cDNA ends of FAP1360A. Six full-length cDNAs, corresponding to the Pic19R-1 to -6 paralogs, were obtained. Three of them (Pic19R-1 to -3) had uninterrupted coding sequences and were, therefore, regarded as candidates for the Scmv1 gene. A total of 18 positive BAC clones harboring the Pic19R-2 to -5 paralogs were obtained from the FAP1360A BAC library and assembled into two BAC contigs. Two markers, tagging Pic19R-2 and -3 and Pic19R-4, were developed and used to genotype a high-resolution mapping population segregating solely for the Scmv1 locus. Although closely linked, none of these three Pic19R paralogs co-segregated with the Scmv1 locus. Analysis of the Pic19R family indicated that the Pic19R-1 paralog is identical to the known Rxo1 gene conferring resistance to rice bacterial streak disease and none of the other Pic19R paralogs seems to be involved in resistance to SCMV
