Boxwoods (Buxus L., Buxaceae) are popular woody landscape shrubs grown for their diverse forms and broad-leaved evergreen foliage. We used genic simple sequence repeat (genic-SSR) markers to assess genetic diversity and relatedness of 275 accessions from the National Boxwood Collection at the U.S. National Arboretum. Flow cytometry was conducted to determine the relative ploidy of each accession. Genic-SSR loci were highly variable among the accessions, detecting an average of 6.7 alleles per locus based on 17 primer pairs. Data were analyzed with a distance matrix based on Jaccard’s similarity index, followed by Unweighted Pair Group Method with Arithmetic Mean clustering. Two major clusters were identified, with four subclusters consisting of individual accessions from B. balearica Lam., B. bodinieri Lévl., B. harlandii Hance, B. microphylla Siebold et Zuccarini, B. sempervirens L., B. sinica (Rehd. et Wils.) M. Cheng, and their putative interspecific hybrids. The accessions generally clustered by cultivar, provenance, or species. Clustering within each group typically reflected breeding pedigrees, when known, and the clusters were supported by bootstrap results. This information will be used for breeding programs and collection management, and for identifying possible sources of disease tolerance for boxwood blight and other diseases and pests.  相似文献

Wild crop relatives are of considerable interest in plant breeding and significant efforts have been made to transfer their genetic variation into modern crops. Of the three diploid progenitors of bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), only Aegilops tauschii Coss. has been explored and exploited and only for some above ground characteristics. The three wild progenitors (Aegilops speltoides Tausch., Triticum urartu Tumanian ex Gandilyan, and Aegilops tauschii) have never been assayed for root traits. Here we report such a root study, and include Triticum monococcum L. subsp. boeoticum (Boiss.) Hayek and T. turgidum L. subsp. dicoccoides (Koern. ex Asch. et Graebn.) Thell. Fifteen accessions were selected from the above wild species and tested in the presence of one bread wheat cultivar Pavon F76. Significant variation was observed between and within the taxa. Of all accessions tested, cv. Pavon F76 had the smallest root system at maturity while A. speltoides had the largest root system. Moreover, Aegilops spp. had larger mean values for root biomass when compared with Triticum spp. These results suggest there is significant unexplored potential for the use of wheat wild relatives in wheat breeding to improve the root system, or to develop synthetic mapping populations to study root traits.  相似文献

The wild species in general is considered to be the reservoir of genes especially for biotic and abiotic stresses. In okra, the predominant biotic stresses are yellow vein mosaic disease (YVMD), shoot and fruit borer and leaf hopper. Sixty eight (68) accessions belonging to four wild Abelmoschus species [Abelmoschus caillei (A. Chev.) Stevels, Abelmoschus manihot (L.) Medik., Abelmoschus moschatus (L.) Medik. and Abelmoschus tuberculatus Pal et Singh] and eight okra varieties were characterized and evaluated for phenological characters including biotic stresses under natural epiphytotic condition. The wild species examined consisted of 18 accessions (16 exotic and 2 indigenous) of A. caillei, 29 accessions of A. manihot, 16 accessions of A. moschatus and 5 accessions of A. tuberculatus. All the wild Abelmoschus species exhibited high diversity (as measured by Shannon Diversity Index) for 3 qualitative characters viz. intensity of stem colour, leaf shape, epicalyx shape, 13 quantitative characters and 3 biotic stress parameters. Among the wild species, A. caillei and A. tuberculatus showed maximum and minimum diversity for qualitative characters, respectively. There was significant variation for 19 out of 24 quantitative characters studied. Inter-species diversity pattern as estimated through Ward’s Minimum Variance Dendrogram and Principal Component Analysis revealed clear differentiation among the species with minimum overlapping indicating close association between geographical origins and clustering pattern. Intra-species diversity indicated role of specific adaptation in sub-clustering. Resistance to YVMD was found in accessions belonging to three wild species viz. A. caillei, A. manihot and A. moschatus while resistance to shoot and fruit borer and leaf hopper was found in accessions of all the four wild species. The resistant accessions can further be used for introgressing biotic stress resistance through pre-breeding into cultivated okra species.  相似文献

China is known throughout the world as one of the most diverse centres of wild Tulipa L. resources. There are 17 wild Tulipa species distributed in China, and 12 species are only distributed in Xinjiang Province. In this paper, total 83 accessions were collected from Xinjiang, Liaoning and several other provinces. Their distribution, collection, classification and evaluation were described. According to morphological characteristics, they were classified into eight species, which included T. sinkiangensis Z. M. Mao, T. altaica Pall. ex Spreng., T. iliensis Regel, T. heterophylla Baker, T. buhseana Boiss., T. thianschanica Regel, T. schrenkii Regel and T. edulis (Miq.) Baker. Their phenotypic genetic relationships were analysed and showed that the eight Tulipa species were divided into two groups: Group I included one species T. edulis, and Group II included the other seven species. Bulb renewal was observed in eight wild Tulipa species; T. iliensis and T. edulis showed that one or more long fleshy stolons formed horizontally or vertically at the basal plate of the mother bulbs, new bulblets (dropper) appeared at the top of each fleshy stolon, and the mother bulbs eventually disappeared. The analytic hierarchy process was used to evaluate the ornamental value, utilization potential and ecological adaptability of the eight identified species. The results showed that T. iliensis, T. buhseana and T. thianschanica had better ornamental value and utilization potential than any other species. The distribution, collection, classification, and evaluation of wild Tulipa species could be helpful in creating novel tulip germplasms in China.  相似文献

Genetic diversity of 139 accessions of diploid Triticum species including Triticum urartu, Triticum boeoticum and Triticum monococcum was studied using 11 SSR (simple sequence repeats) markers. A total of 111 alleles with an average of 10 alleles per locus were detected. The polymorphism information content (PIC) of each SSR marker ranged from 0.30 to 0.90 with an average value of 0.62. Among the three Triticum species T. urartu had the highest number of total alleles (Na?=?81), private alleles (Npa?=?15) and showed higher genetic diversity (Hex?=?0.58; PIC?=?0.54). The genotypes from Turkey exhibited the highest genetic diversity (PIC?=?0.6), while the least diversity was observed among 4 Georgian accessions (PIC?=?0.11). Cluster analysis was able to distinguish 139 wheat accessions at the species level. The highest genetic similarity (GS) was noted between T. boeticum and T. monococcum (GS?=?0.84), and the lowest between T. urartu and T. monococcum (GS?=?0.46). The grouping pattern of the PCoA analysis corresponded with cluster analysis. No significant differences were found in clustering of T. urartu and T. monococcum accessions with respect to their geographic regions, while within T. boeoticum species, accessions from Iran were somewhat associated with their geographical origin and clustered as a close and separate group. The results from our study demonstrated that SSR markers were good enough for further genetic diversity analysis in einkorn wheat species.  相似文献

Setaria viridis (L.) P. Beauv. and its domesticated form, S. italica (L.) P. Beauv., have been developed over the past few years as model systems for C4 photosynthesis and for the analysis of bioenergy traits. S. viridis is native to Eurasia, but is now a ubiquitous weed. An analysis of the population structure of a set of 232 S. viridis lines, mostly from North America but also comprising some accessions from around the world, using 11 SSR markers, showed that S. viridis populations in the US largely separate by latitude and/or climatic zone. S. viridis populations from the Northern US and Canada (north of 44°N) group with accessions from Western Europe, while populations in the Mid and Southern US predominantly group with accessions from Turkey and Iran. We hypothesize that S. viridis in the US was most likely introduced from Europe, and that introductions were competitive only in regions that had climatic conditions that were similar to those in the regions of origins. This hypothesis is supported by the fact that Canadian S. viridis lines were fast cycling and undersized when grown in the Mid-Western and Southern US compared to their morphology in their native environment. A comparison of the population structure obtained with 11 SSR markers and ~40,000 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in a common set of S. viridis germplasm showed that both methods essentially yielded the same groupings, although admixture was identified at a higher frequency in the SNP analysis. Small numbers of SSR markers can thus be used effectively to discern the population structure in this inbreeding species.  相似文献

The genus Crataegus known as hawthorns, is the largest genus among the Maloideae, which comprises 265 species. Turkey is one of the genetic centers of Crataegus and there are more than 20 species found in Turkey. The fruits of Crataegus are used as food and have high flavonoid, vitamin C, glycoside, anthocyanidin, saponin, tannin, and antioxidant levels. In this study, we attempted to characterize 15 Crataegus accessions sampled from Hatay, located in Eastern Mediterranean region of Turkey. The accessions belonged to several species; C. aronia (L.) DC. var. aronia, C. aronia var. dentata Browicz, C. aronia var. minuta Browicz, C. monogyna Jacq. subsp. azarella (Griseb.) Franco, and C. orientalis Pall. ex M. Bieb. var. orientalis. Fruit characteristics of the accessions exhibited considerable variation. The multivariate, principle component and cluster analyses indicated that the accessions belonged to three groups: (1) C. aronia var. arona accessions; (2) C. aronia var. dentata accessions; and, (3) C. monogyna subsp. azarella and C. orientalis var. orientalis accessions. The principle component analysis results also revealed that the first three components explained 46, 21, and 14% of the variation, comprising a total of 81%. The fruit length and width, leaf area, and soluble solids contents were highly correlated characteristics for the first three components. The 19 RAPD primers generated a total of 107 bands, where 76 of these were polymorphic. The molecular data analyses by principle coordinate and clustering showed similar results to those of pomological characteristics. There were three groups, (1) C. aronia var. arona accessions; (2) C. aronia var. dentata accession; and, (3) C. monogyna subsp. azarella. C. orientalis var. orientalis accession grouped with C. aronia var. arona accessions. Therefore, it can be concluded that, overall, the diversity patterns of pomological and molecular data, generated by RAPD, for Crataegus are in good agreement and the accessions of C. aronia var. aronia, C. aronia var. minuta, C. monogyna subsp. azarella and C. orientalis var. orientalis accessions.  相似文献

High level of genetic diversity and morphological variations were observed among and within the different Rosa species studied. The key traits which differentiated the species were nature of plant, habit, shape of prickles, shape of stipules, leaflet shape, type of leaf margin, vestiture of ventral side of leaflet and flower shape, whereas, traits for distinguishing the accessions within a species (as in case of accessions from western Himalayan region) were flower colour, petal number, shape of hip and hip colour. Some of the accessions from western Himalayan region formed out-groups (IHBT-WR-18, IHBT-WR-21, IHBT-WR-31and IHBT-WR-43B) and could not be classified at the species level. High degree of variations among the accessions of R. multiflora group as compared to variations among the accessions of R. moschata, R. brunonii and R. cathayensis, suggests high level of out-breeding in R. multiflora which may contribute to further variations. Desirable variations were observed for flower colour, petal number, lack of prickles, perpetual flowering, large flower diameter and large fruit size which contribute significantly to diversity of the roses and have potential use in breeding programs.  相似文献

Motherwort (Leonurus cardiaca L.) is a medicinal plant indigenous to the Mediterranean regions in Europe and Asia. The objective of this study is to apply inter-primer binding site (iPBS) markers to assess the molecular variation and genetic relationships of 89 genotypes of motherwort to assist the genetic improvement of this species. The genotypes comprised 79 from Iran and 10 collected in Australia and 15 additional accessions of two related species (L. heterophyllus Sweet and L. sibiricus L.) collected in Australia, were also included. PCR of 7 iPBS primers (dominant markers) produced a total of 191 bands ranging from 180 to 4000 bp and the mean PIC for primers ranged from 0.2213 to 0.3206 with a mean value 0.2921. The mean expected heterozygosity (0.134), the mean unbiased expected heterozygosity (0.140) and Shannon’s information index (0.213) indicated a high level of inbreeding among the accessions tested. Ordination and cluster analysis showed that the genetic relationships among all accessions could be separated into three major groups—L. cardiaca, L. heterophyllus and L. sibiricus. However, among the 89 accessions of L. cardiaca, genotypes collected from the same geographic region tended to cluster together thus indicating greater genetic similarity. The Motherwort accessions originating in Iran are highly divergent and possess abundant genetic diversity and clearly provide a basis for selection and breeding. The iPBS PCR-based genome fingerprinting technology used in this study is low-cost and effective in differentiating accessions of motherwort and their related species.  相似文献

Significant genetic diversity was observed in 218 out of a total of 1309 accessions of amaranth (Amaranthus hypochondriacus L.) and its seven wild relatives, A. spinosus L., A. dubius Mart. ex Thell., A. hybridus L., A. tricolor L., A. cruentus L., A. caudatus L., A. retroflexus L. for 24 nutritional parameters including total oil content, fatty acid profile, total protein content and amino acid profile. Diversity for total oil content (6.42–12.53%), linoleic acid (25.68–54.34%), oleic acid (21.97–42.01%) of the total fatty acids, total protein content (7.84–18.01%), among important essential amino acids; lysine content (0.66–11.12 g/16 g N), methionine (0.35–4.80 g/16 g N) and half cystine and (0.12–8.32 g/16 g N) was reported. The un-weighted pair-group method using arithmetic average cluster analysis based on pair wise Euclidean genetic distance grouped the accessions into seven major clusters. Histidine, half cystine, tyrosine, essential amino acids, total oil content, linoleic acid and oleic acid content were the major parameters contributing significantly to genetic diversity. Present findings indicate that significant diversity exists for nutritional parameters in amaranth germplasm. The promising accessions with higher multiple nutritive traits; protein content (>16%), oil content (>11%), lysine content (>7.5 g/16 g N) and EAA higher than the FAO reported values, were identified. This is the first report on detailed nutritional analysis of diversity collected worldwide. These could be used as potential breeding material for nutritional enhancement through genetic improvement. This will help in overcoming the “triple burden” of malnourishment, hidden hunger, and obesity.  相似文献

Sequence-Specific Amplified Polymorphism (S-SAP)-analysis of 131 accessions of different species from five sections of the genus Malus was carried out to study genetic diversity, and to clarify phylogenetic and taxonomic issues. S-SAP-markers, based on long terminal repeat (LTR)-retrotransposons TRIM2 and dem1, were developed, which identified 679 polymorphic fragments in the studied Malus species. S-SAP technique proved to be effective for taxonomic studies in Malus. The obtained results generally support the existing sectional taxonomy in the genus Malus and allowed to determine the taxonomic status of some Russian landraces. The genetic diversity and taxonomic status of the Russian apple Antonovka landraces, widely used in breeding programs for their increased adaptation to abiotic stress and scab resistance, were clarified. All of them belong to M. domestica, section Malus. However, Antonovka Olginskaya might have a hybrid origin with some contribution from Gymnomeles species according to PCO analysis data. The taxonomic status was resolved for another Russian landrace, Yakutskaya, which exhibits increased winter hardiness and drought resistance; it belongs to section Gymnomeles, with a high resemblance to M. baccata.  相似文献

The main goal of this study is to gain insight into the relationship between the genetic profile of cultivated rice (Oryza spp.) accessions and their resistance to rice blast. Therefore, the genetic and phenotypic variability of a set of 350 cultivated rice accessions originating from Africa (Benin, Mali and Nigeria, Ivory Coast etc.) was examined. Seventy-seven fluorescent amplified fragment polymorphism (AFLP) markers were used to gain insight into the genetic variation and to classify the germplasm collection. In addition, the rice germplasm was assessed for its resistance to blast disease caused by Pyricularia oryzae in upland field conditions. Huge differences in responses of rice accessions to P. oryzae were observed, ranging from highly susceptible to highly resistant. Twelve percent of all accessions were highly resistant to P. oryzae. Based on their AFLP marker profile these highly resistant accessions could be separated from the other accessions. Stepwise regression revealed that the best prediction of the blast resistance level was achieved with a maximum number of 13 AFLP markers. Marker CTA22 was the most important for accurate prediction of blast resistance, this marker was present in all highly resistant accessions. It can be concluded that AFLP markers are a valuable tool to screen rice accessions for their susceptibility towards blast disease and that, based on a subset of markers, it is possible to predict the resistance to rice blast.  相似文献

Asian rice (Oryza sativa L.) is widely cultivated in Asia, where it has been classified into Indica and Japonica Group, the latter is further classified into Tropical and Temperate Japonica Subgroup. O. rufipogon is believed to be the closest ancestor to O. sativa, but it remains unclear whether the two groups arose from a single ancestor or different ancestors. Therefore, here, we investigated the matrilineal ancestors of O. sativa using markers for organelle (chloroplast and mitochondrial) genomes, and 119 O. sativa landraces, 10 O. glaberrima Steud., 115 O. rufipogon Griff. from Asia, and 39 accessions from other wild rice species with AA genomes. We screened 18 organelle markers developed based on polymorphic loci in the organelle genomes. In addition, we used the open reading frame 100 of a chloroplast marker. The results indicated that O. rufipogon first differentiated into two lineages and then further differentiated into Indica and Japonica Group, respectively. Accessions of O. rufipogon (R-1f and R-2d types) from Myanmar appear to be the closest ancestors of Tropical Japonica Subgroup and Indica Group, respectively. Therefore, these wild strains may have made a strong contribution to the domestication of rice landraces in Myanmar.  相似文献

Tibet is one of the main distribution centers of wild Fragaria species in China. There are abundant, precious and rare wild strawberry resources. This paper focused on the classification, distribution and evaluation of the 65 wild strawberry accessions collected from 17 counties in Tibet. The main taxonomical characters, such as stolon branching, leaflet type, flower sex, fruit shape, status of achene and sepal, and chromosome number were observed for each accession. All accessions were identified and classified into seven Fragaria species and two forms, including F. daltoniana J. Gay (2x), F. nilgerrensis Schlecht. (2x), F. nubicola Lindl. (2x), F. pentaphylla Losinsk. (2x), F. gracilis A. Los. (4x), F. moupinensis (French.) Card. (4x) and F. tibetica Staudt et Dickoré. (4x). The two white-fruited forms were F. nubicola f. alba (2x) and F. moupinensis f. alba (4x). The analytic hierarchy process (AHP) method was used to perform a comprehensive assessment on the value of seven Fragaria species and two forms. The results showed that F. nilgerrensis had better fruit quality, disease resistance and waterlogging tolerance than any other species in Tibet. The collection and identification of wild strawberry resources in Tibet would be helpful to improve the fruit quality and stress resistance of modern strawberry cultivars.  相似文献

Germplasm collections of C. reticulatum and C. echinospermum are limited, while both species face threats from over-grazing and habitat change in their natural environments. Recently many new accessions of C. reticulatum and C. echinospermum were collected in east and south-east Anatolia (Turkey) but they have not yet been evaluated for agro-morphological traits. Therefore, the current study investigated agro-morphological traits of new germplasm sources of C. reticulatum and C. echinospermum and evaluated resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses for chickpea improvement. The most attractive agro-morphological traits were canopy width, number of stems and pods per plant and biological yield. The most productive accessions of C. reticulatum and C. echinospermum had 712 and 625 pods per plant, respectively. Two distinct seed, flower and leaf shapes were found in accessions of C. echinospermum. Path analyses indicated that biological yield and harvest index had the most direct influence on seed yield in both species. Factor analyses showed that high seed yield in C. reticulatum depended on high biological yield and number of pods per plant, whereas high seed yield in C. echinospermum depended on harvest index. It was concluded that most accessions of C. reticulatum and C. echinospermum were not only resistant to some biotic and abiotic stresses but also had hidden alleles that could produce transgressive segregation in crosses to cultivated material.  相似文献

Yam bean [Pachyrhizus DC.] is a legume genus of the subtribe Glycininae with three root crop species [P. erosus (L.) Urban, P. tuberosus (Lam.) Spreng., and P. ahipa (Wedd.) Parodi]. Two of the four cultivar groups found in P. tuberosus were studied: the roots of ‘Ashipa’ cultivars with low root dry matter (DM) content similar to P. erosus and P. ahipa are traditionally consumed raw as fruits, whereas ‘Chuin’ cultivars with high root DM content are cooked and consumed like manioc roots. Interspecific hybrids between yam bean species are generally completely fertile. This study examines the genetic diversity of the three crop species, their potentials for breeding and the identification of useful traits to differentiate among yam bean genotypes and accessions. In total, 34 entries (genotypes and accessions) were grown during 2000?2001 at two locations in Benin, West Africa, and 75 morphological and agronomical traits, encompassing 50 quantitative and 25 qualitative characters were measured. Diversity between entries was analyzed using principal component analysis, cluster analysis, multivariate analysis of variance and discriminant function analysis. Furthermore, phenotypic variation within and among species was investigated. Intra- and interspecific phenotypic diversity was quantified using the Shannon–Weaver diversity index. A character discard was tested by variance component estimations and multiple regression analysis. Quantitative trait variation ranged from 0.81 (for total harvest index) to 49.35% (for no. of storage roots per plant). Interspecific phenotypic variation was higher than intraspecific for quantitative traits in contrast to qualitative characters. Phenotypic variation was higher in overall for quantitative than qualitative traits. In general, intraspecific phenotypic variation ranged from 0.00 to 82.61%, and from 0.00 to 80.03% for quantitative and qualitative traits, respectively. Interspecific phenotypic variation ranged from 0.00 to 95.02%, and 0.00?81.58% for the two trait types, respectively. The Shannon–Weaver diversity index (H′) was in general high and over 0.80 for most of the trait. Diversity within P. tuberosus was higher than within P. erosus and P. ahipa. Across the 50 quantitative and 25 qualitative traits, the Shannon–Weaver diversity index of intra- and interspecific variation was around 0.83 and 0.51, respectively and was lower for qualitative than for quantitative traits. Monomorphism was observed in eight qualitative traits and one quantitative character. The first, second and third principal components explained, respectively, 39.1, 21.3 and 8.3% of the total variation in all traits. Pachyrhizus erosus, P. ahipa, and P. tuberosus (‘Chuin’ and ‘Ashipa’) were clearly separated from each other by these analyses. Multivariate analysis of variance indicates significant differences between Pachyrhizus species for all individual or grouped traits. Discriminant function analysis revealed that the first two discriminant functions were almost significant. Biases due to unbalanced sample size used per species were small. Within each species a similar amount of diversity was observed and was determinable to 70% by only ten traits. We conclude that the cultivated yam bean species represent distinct genepools and each exhibits similarly large amounts of genetic diversity.  相似文献
