Flowering in perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) is induced by a period of short days and low temperatures (vernalisation), followed by long-day photoperiod conditions. Genetic linkage mapping and association genetics studies have collectively identified 36 quantitative trait loci for flowering time which were distributed across all seven linkage groups of perennial ryegrass. Close to 40 genes (or putative orthologues/homologues of genes known from other species) for flowering time regulation have been identified, including central integrators and genes involved in four pathways (vernalisation, photoperiod, gibberellin, and autonomous). The structure and function of these predicted genes remains to be characterised. Although the photoperiod pathway is conserved in comparison to that of other temperate grasses, the vernalisation pathway appears to differ, due to absence of an orthologue of the cereal VRN2 gene. Although putative components from the autonomous pathway were identified, their target is unclear. No counterparts of genes from two other pathways (ageing and ambient temperature) have so far been reported. Given that c. 200 genes for flowering time regulation have been described in the model plant species Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh., additional genes may be identified from ryegrasses through comparative genomics approaches in the near future.  相似文献

O. meridionalis is a wild species belonging to AA genome in the Oryza genus, which has a lot of beneficial genes for improvement of cultivated rice. In the present study, 99 chromosome single-segment substitution lines (SSSLs) were developed carrying donor segments of O. meridionalis in the genetic background of an indica cultivar, Huajingxian 74 (HJX74). The total lengths of the 99 substituted segments in the SSSLs were 1580.16 cM, with an average length of 15.11 cM per substituted segment, covering 873.94 cM and 54.98% of O.meridionalis genome. Phenotypic investigations of the SSSLs showed that three SSSLs had red pericarp, awn and showed seed shattering, respectively, indicating that these genes of O. meridionalis responsible for these traits have been transferred to the SSSLs. And wide variations were observed in seven quantitative traits including heading date and yield-related traits in 82 SSSLs.At P ≤ 0.001, 77 SSSLs showed significant differences compared with HJX74 in at least one trait either in the fall of 2014 or spring of 2015, and a total of 28 stable QTLs were detected in 24 SSSLs in both seasons. These results suggest that the SSSLs library of O. meridionalis developed in this study offers a good germplasm platform for the identification and transformation of beneficial genes of O. meridionalis, and facilitates the conservation of gene resources of O. meridionalis in vivo for long periods.  相似文献

The marked underutilization of pea ecotype and old cultivar genetic resources need be reversed by producing information on elite germplasm and diversity patterns for key agronomic traits. This study generated such information for a world collection of 223 ecotypes or old cultivars of P. sativum subsp. sativum subdivided into 19 regional pools (each represented by 9–15 entries) and one reference pool of 11 locally-adapted varieties from France, Spain and Germany. The collection was evaluated for grain yield, seed protein content, straw biomass, phenology and other agronomic and morphological traits in a spring-sown, water-limited environment of Northern Italy. Variation within ecotype/old cultivar germplasm pools was at least two-fold greater for seed size and protein content and seven-fold greater for other traits relative to variation between pools, and was particularly large within pools from Central Europe, Near East and United Kingdom. The traditional germplasm, compared with improved variety material, tended to display higher dry grain yield (1.11 vs. 0.85 t/ha) and straw biomass, later crop maturity, smaller seed, and similar protein content. Traditional germplasm from Central Europe combined outstanding grain yield and total biomass with high seed protein content. High grain yield characterized, inter alia, the germplasm pools from Ukraine and Spain, the latter also featuring high protein content. Several ecotype/old cultivar accessions out-performed (P < 0.05) the best-ranking varieties for grain yield or protein content. Patterns of phenotypic variation were poorly related to geographic origin of germplasm pools, while highlighting the distinctness of improved variety germplasm.  相似文献

A quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis of grain yield and yield-related traits was performed on 93 durum wheat recombinant inbred lines derived from the cross UC1113 × Kofa. The mapping population and parental lines were analyzed considering 19 traits assessed in different Argentine environments, namely grain yield, heading date, flowering time, plant height, biomass per plant, and spikelet number per ear, among others. A total of 224 QTL with logarithm of odds ratio (LOD) ≥ 3 and 47 additional QTL with LOD > 2.0 were detected. These QTL were clustered in 35 regions with overlapping QTL, and 12 genomic regions were associated with only one phenotypic trait. The regions with the highest number of multi-trait and stable QTL were 3BS.1, 3BS.2, 2BS.1, 1BL.1, 3AL.1, 1AS, and 4AL.3. The effects of epistatic QTL and QTL × environment interactions were also analyzed. QTL putatively located at major gene loci (Rht, Vrn, Eps, and Ppd) as well as additional major/minor QTL involved in the complex genetic basis of yield-related traits expressed in Argentine environments were identified. Interestingly, the 3AL.1 region was found to increase yield without altering grain quality or crop phenology.  相似文献

The brown planthopper (BPH) is a potent pest of rice in Asia and Southeast Asia. Host resistance has been found to be the most suitable alternative to manage the insect. But varietal resistance has been found to be short-lived. There has been a constant search for alternate resistance genes. We developed an F8 recombinant inbred population for the BPH resistance gene in Salkathi, an indica landrace from Odisha, India. Phenotyping of RILs against the BPH population at Cuttack, Odisha showed continuous skewed variation with four peaks at 2.1–3.0, 4.1–5.0, 6.1–7.0 and 8.1–9.0 SES score, suggesting the involvement of quantitative loci for resistance to BPH in Salkathi. Mapping showed the presence of two QTLs on the short arm of chromosome 4. One QTL, with phenotype variance of 37.02% is located between the markers RM551 and RM335. The other QTL, with phenotype variance of 7.1% is located between markers RM335 and RM5633. The two QTLs have been designated as qBph4.3 and qBph4.4. QBph4.3 seems to be a novel QTL associated with BPH resistance. We have successfully transferred qBph4.3 and qBph4.4 into two elite rice cultivars, Pusa 44 and Samba Mahsuri. Fine mapping of the identified QTLs may lead to a successful transfer of QTLs into other elite germplasm backgrounds.  相似文献

Avena sativa L. subsp. nudisativa has the ability to produce naked grains. Genetic studies on the naked trait of oat began over a century ago, but the genetic and molecular factors associated with the expression of this trait have not been fully clarified. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the naked trait in two oat populations of recombinant inbred lines (RILs), to determine the number of genes, to estimate the heritability, and to map genomic regions associated with the naked trait in hexaploid oat. Parental lines and RILs of each population were screened for the naked trait from plants grown in the field over a 2 year period. Based on the phenotypic data, the oat RILs were classed as naked, partially naked, partially hulled and hulled. In both populations and years, a great number of RILs showed variable expressivity for the naked trait. The genetic analysis indicated the action of a major gene (N1) with the action of modifying genes controlling the formation of naked grains. The results of the estimate of heritability show that environmental conditions do not have a great influence in determining the naked trait. The quantitative trait loci analysis detected a genomic region with a large effect on the naked trait that explained more than 50% of the phenotypic variation. Further studies are needed to validate the use of these molecular markers to assist breeding programs to select high quality and stable naked oat cultivars.  相似文献

Soil and root samples were collected from major tomato growing areas of Ethiopia during the 2012/2013 growing season to identify root-knot nematode problems. DNA-based and isozyme techniques revealed that Meloidogyne incognita and M. javanica were the predominant Meloidogyne species across the sampled areas. The aggressiveness of different populations of these species was assessed on tomato cultivars Marmande and Moneymaker. The two most aggressive populations of each species were selected and further tested on 33 tomato genotypes. The resistance screening and mechanism of resistance was performed after inoculation with 100 freshly hatched (<24 h) second-stage juveniles (J2). Eight weeks after inoculation the number of egg masses produced on each cultivar was assessed. For the resistance mechanism study, J2 penetration and their subsequent development inside the tomato roots were examined at 1, 2, 4 and 6 weeks after inoculation. On both cultivars Marmande and Moneymaker all M. incognita and M. javanica populations formed a high number of egg masses indicating highly aggressive behaviour. Populations from ‘Jittu’ and ‘Babile’ for M. incognita and ‘Jittu’ and ‘Koka’ for M. javanica were selected as most aggressive. None of the 33 tomato genotypes were immune for these M. incognita and M. javanica populations. However, several tomato genotypes were found to have a significant effect on the number of egg masses produced indicating possible resistance. For M. javanica populations there were more plants from cultivars or breeding lines on which no egg masses were found compared to M. incognita populations. The lowest number of egg masses for both populations of M. incognita was produced on cultivars Bridget40, Galilea, and Irma while for M. javanica it was on Assila, Eden, Galilea, Tisey, CLN-2366A, CLN-2366B and CLN-2366C. Tomato genotypes, time (weeks after inoculation) and their interaction were significant sources of variation for J2 penetration and their subsequent development inside the tomato roots. Differential penetration was found in breeding lines such as CLN-2366A, CLN-2366B and CLN-2366C, but many of the selected tomato genotypes resistance for the tested M. incognita and M. javanica populations were expressed by delayed nematode development. Therefore, developing a simple screening technique to be used by local farmers or extension workers is crucial to facilitate selection of a suitable cultivar.  相似文献

Cultivar pedigrees from two sugarcane origins, 9 Argentine (AR) and 7 American (AM) have been reconstructed, and their genetic similarities (based on coefficient of parentage, COP, estimates) show an average of 0.206 ± 0.054. CP clones that enter the pedigrees of AM cultivars are parents or grandparents of AR cultivars, demonstrating that these genotypes have a strong genetic lineage in common. On average, AR pedigrees are smaller and contain less number of founding species than AM pedigrees. However, the lower height of the former is not explained by the different participation of founding species in the pedigrees. The presence of founding species in AR and AM pedigrees increases with the year of cultivar selection, indicating that more founding species entered the pedigree in recently selected cultivars than in older ones. The ancestry of the 16 cultivars trace back to 3 founding species: Saccharum officinarum, S. barberi, and S. spontaneum, with S. officinarum showing the greatest percentage of participation. As S. sinensis participates in 13 pedigrees and S. robustum in 3, the 5 founding species are present in 2 out of 16 pedigrees. Interestingly, the genus Sorghum enters the pedigree of LCP 85-384 pedigree. Industrial parameters assayed indicate that AR and AM cultivars were preferentially selected for their relatively high sucrose content and sugar yield in accordance with two facts: (i) the genetic background and the sucrose genes of sugarcane hybrids provided by the 68% of participation S. officinarum clones, and (ii) no clones of high fiber S. spontaneum have entered the pedigrees in earlier generations.  相似文献

Pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) causes significant yield loss and degrade the end-use quality of wheat, especially in regions with prolonged wet weather during the harvesting season. Unfortunately, the gene pool of Triticum durum (tetraploid durum wheat) has narrow genetic base for PHS resistance. Therefore, finding out new genetic resources from other wheat species to develop PHS resistance in durum wheat is of importance. A major PHS resistance QTL, Qphs.sicau-3B.1, was mapped on chromosome 3BL in a recombinant inbred line population derived from ‘CSCR6’ (Triticum spelta), a PHS resistant hexaploid wheat and ‘Lang’, a PHS susceptible Australian hexaploid wheat cultivar. This QTL, Qphs.sicau-3B.1, is positioned between DArT marker wPt-3107 and wPt-6785. Two SCAR markers (Ph3B.1 and Ph3B.2) were developed to track this major QTL and were used to assay a BC2F8 tetraploid population derived from a cross between the durum wheat ‘Bellaroi’ (PHS susceptible) and ‘CSCR6’ (PHS resistant). Phenotypic assay and marker-assisted selection revealed five stable tetraploid lines were highly PHS resistant. This study has successfully established that PHS-resistance QTL from hexaploid wheat could be efficiently introgressed into tetraploid durum wheat. This tetraploid wheat germplasm could be useful in developing PHS resistant durum cultivars with higher yield and good end-use quality.  相似文献

Arabica coffee production is based on highly productive cultivars; however, these cultivars are susceptible to infestation by several biotic agents, including root-knot nematodes. Collections of wild Coffea arabica germplasm represent an important source of genetic variability for resistant cultivar development. In this study, 1046 plants derived from 71 wild coffee trees were evaluated with respect to Meloidogyne paranaensis resistance. In addition to information on plants reactions, we also evaluated the genetic parameters related to resistance. Progenies from the five most promising plants were also evaluated regarding resistance to M. incognita and M. exigua. The yield potential of selected plants was estimated through analysis of data for fruits harvested in 4 different years. Forty-seven plants were considered resistant based on reproduction factor values. The estimated heritability was high for all analyzed variables leading to substantial selection gain, mainly at the progeny mean level. On the basis of heritabilities and genetic correlations, we conclude that selection could be performed based on values of the gall and egg mass index. However, higher genetic gain could be obtained based on nematode count variables. A second experiment confirmed the reactions of the selected five plants to M. paranaensis, and multiple resistance was detected in three of them. The resistant accessions also have yield potential.  相似文献

Stripe rust is a devastating disease in common wheat (Triticum aestivum) worldwide. Growing cultivars with adult-plant resistance (APR) is an environmental friendly approach that provides long-term protection to wheat from this disease. Wheat cultivar Yaco“S” showed a high level of APR to stripe rust in the field from 2008 to 2014. The objective of this study was to detect the major quantitative trait loci (QTL) for APR to stripe rust in Yaco“S”. One hundred and eighty-four F2:3 lines were developed from a cross between Yaco“S” and susceptible cultivar Mingxian169. Illumina 90K and 660K single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) chips were implemented to bulked pools and their parents to identify SNPs associated with the major QTL. A high-density linkage map was constructed using simple sequence repeat (SSR) and SNP markers. Inclusive composite interval mapping detected a major effect QTL Qyryac.nwafu-2BS conferring stable resistance to stripe rust in all tested environments. Qyryac.nwafu-2BS were mapped to a 1.3 cm interval and explained 17.3–51.9% of the phenotypic variation. Compared with stripe rust resistance genes previously mapped to chromosome 2B, Qyryac.nwafu-2BS is likely a new APR gene to stripe rust. Combining SNP iSelect assay and kompetitive allele specific PCR technology, we found that the APR gene could be rapidly and accurately mapped and it is useful for improving stripe rust resistance in wheat breeding.  相似文献

Rice seed storability is an important characteristic of seed quality so that the cultivars with strong seed storability are expected in the production of hybrid seeds. Presently, little is known about the genetic and physiological mechanisms controlling rice seed storability. In this study, a double haploid population derived from the cross between a japonica cultivar CJ06 and an indica cultivar TN1 was used to identify the quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for seed germination percentage (GP) and fatty acid content (FA) during natural storage or artificial aging. A total of 19 QTLs, including ten QTLs for GP and nine QTLs for FA, were identified on nine chromosomes with the phenotypic variations ranged from 2.1 to 22.7%. Besides, six and three pairs of epistatic interactions were identified for GP and FA, respectively. Moreover, qGP-9, a QTL for germination percentage, was delimited in an interval of 92.8 kb between two STS markers P6 and P8, which contains 15 putative open reading frames. These results provide important information for understanding the genetic mechanisms on rice seed storability, and will be useful for breeding new rice varieties with high seed storability.  相似文献

Soybean is a primary source of plant oil and protein and has a high nutritional value. Plant height (PH) and flowering time (FT) are two important agronomic traits in breeding programs for soybean. In this study, we mapped QTLs associated with PH and FT in three environments using a population with determinate growth including 236 recombinant inbred lines (NJZY-RIL) derived from a cross between two summer planting varieties, ZXD and NN1138-2. A high-density genetic map with 3255 SLAF-markers was constructed that spanned 2144.85 cM of the soybean genome with an average marker distance of 0.66 cM. Altogether, six QTLs controlling PH and eleven QTLs controlling FT were mapped using mixed-model-based composite interval mapping and composite interval mapping methods. qPH-1-1 and qFT-15-2 were two novel main effect QTLs identified in this study; qFT-6-2, qFT-15-2, qFT-16-1, qPH-1-1, qPH-15-1 and qPH-16-1 were consistently detected across environments and by the two mapping methods. Two pairs of QTLs, qFT-15-2 and qPH-15-1 as well as qFT-16-1 and qPH-16-1, which were located in the same marker interval on chromosomes 15 and 16, respectively, were found to have close linkage or pleiotropy. These results may increase our understanding of the genetic control of PH and FT in soybean and provide support for implementing marker-assisted selection in developing soybean cultivars with high yield and early maturity in summer planting regions.  相似文献

Pepper huasteco yellow vein virus (PHYVV) is the main virus of pepper crop in Mexico. No resistant cultivars are available and resistance breeding is hampered by the lack of knowledge of heritability (h 2) of PHYVV resistance. This is a continuation of previous studies and the objectives were to analyze the h 2 and the behavior of the resistant trait to PHYVV. Four resistant assays were done with three resistant wild lines (UAS12, UAS13 and UAS10) of Capsicum annuum in the S4, S5, S6 and S7 generation under greenhouse conditions. Plants from all tests were inoculated with PHYVV through Bemisia tabaci. Line UAS12 was the most resistant showing a significantly proportion of resistant plants, less disease symptoms and longer incubation time, followed by the lines UAS13 and UAS10 in all assays. Distribution of symptoms showed a bimodal tendency in all the trials, suggesting that two groups of genes are involved in this resistance trait. The lines UAS12, UAS13 and UAS10 showed the same pattern of response to selection with an average of h 2 of 0.17, 0.06, 0.02 and 0.00 in the S4, S5, S6 and S7, respectively. These results indicate that all lines responded positively to the selection in the S4, S5 and S6, whereas in the S7 there was no response by the possible exhaustion of variation. Line UAS12 is the most promising genotype and the lines UAS13 and UAS10 are genetic resources that can be supplemented to breed the resistance of PHYVV. These results provides basic information for resistance breeding.  相似文献

Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) caused serious loss in yield and quality of tobacco every year. It is a long-term goal to improve the tobacco resistance against TMV by tobacco breeding. N gene was the firstly reported TMV-resistant gene, which showed resistance against all Tobamoviruses except the Ob stain and belonged to the toll-interleukin-1 receptor/nucleotide-binding site/leucine-rich repeat class of plant resistance (R) genes. At present, N gene had already been widely used in tobacco conventional breeding, but there is rare available molecular maker used in marker-assisted selection of TMV resistance. In this study, we designed a pair of primers that specific amplify N gene fragment based on the sequence of N gene intron III, named N-marker. Then, we identified TMV resistance by two selecting methods, PCR with N-marker and inoculated with the TMV-C strain. Results from the two method showed that (1) 13 varieties among 67 tobacco varieties displayed hypersensitive reaction when inoculated with the TMV-C strain, also contained N gene fragments screened by PCR with N-marker; (2) 105 strains of 200 BC1 strains showed resistance against TMV when inoculated with TMV-C strain, meanwhile, 103 of the 105 strains contained N gene fragment verified by PCR with N-marker. Therefore, the N-marker is reliable for high throughput screening of germplasm resources and tobacco breeding materials in selection of N-mediated TMV resistance. Our study not only developed a molecular marker for tobacco breeding, but also identified new germplasm resources that are resistant to TMV.  相似文献

The information of ploidy, karyotype and genetic relationship is useful for interspecific hybridization in ornamental plants. For Tulipa species native to China, very limited cytological information is available now. The objective of this study was to verify the chromosome number, karyotype and genetic relationship of the eight Tulipa species: T. edulis, T. schrenkii, T. iliensis, T. thianschanica, T. altaica, T. sinkiangensis, T. heterophylla and T. buhseana. And the interspecific crosses were made between T. altaica and ten tulip cultivars to obtain novel germplasm. The ovary-swelling, fruit-setting and bulblet formation rates were surveyed when different ploidy cultivars were used as female parents. This work confirmed that all eight species collected in China were diploid (2n?=?2x?=?24), among which chromosome numbers of T. thianschanica, T. sinkiangensis and T. heterophylla were firstly reported and the karyotypes of all any other species except for T. edulis were determined for the first time. The karyotypes of eight Tulipa species were classified as 3A, 4A or 3B. The results of interspecific hybridization showed significant difference when different ploidy cultivars were used as female parents. The highest fruit-setting rate was obtained when diploid cultivars were used as female parents crossed with diploid T. altaica, whereas the ovary swelling was observed in two out of four triploid cultivars as female parents, and no seeds were harvested when tetraploid cultivars were used as female parents. Our findings provided an effective means of cultivar improvement in tulip.  相似文献

The success of breeding for barley leaf rust (BLR) resistance relies on regular discovery, characterization and mapping of new resistance sources. Greenhouse and field studies revealed that the barley cultivars Baronesse, Patty and RAH1995 carry good levels of adult plant resistance (APR) to BLR. Doubled haploid populations [(Baronesse/Stirling (B/S), Patty/Tallon (P/T) and RAH1995/Baudin (R/B)] were investigated in this study to understand inheritance and map resistance to BLR. The seedlings of two populations (B/S and R/B) segregated for leaf rust response that conformed to a single gene ratio (\({\text{X}}_{1:1}^{2}\) = 0.12, P > 0.7 for B/S and \({\text{X}}_{1:1}^{2}\) = 0.34, P > 0.5 for R/B) whereas seedlings of third population (P/T) segregated for two-gene ratio (\({\text{X}}_{1:1}^{2}\) = 0.17, P > 0.6) when tested in greenhouse. It was concluded that the single gene in Baudin and one of the two genes in Tallon is likely Rph12, whereas gene responsible for seedling resistance in Stirling is Rph9.am (allele of Rph12). The second seedling gene in Tallon is uncharacterized. In the field, APR was noted in lines that were susceptible as seedlings. A range of disease responses (CI 5–90) was observed in all three populations. Marker trait association analysis detected three QTLs each in populations B/S (QRph.sun-2H.1, QRph.sun-5H.1 and QRph.sun-6H.1) and R/B (QRph.sun-1H, QRph.sun-2H.2, QRph.sun-3H and QRph.sun-6H.2), and four QTLs in population P/T (QRph.sun-6H.2, QRph.sun-1H.2, QRph.sun-5H.2 and QRph.sun-7H) that significantly contributed to low leaf rust disease coefficients. High frequency of QRph. sun-5H.1, QRph. sun-6H.1, QRph. sun-1H.1, QRph. sun-2H.2, QRph. sun-6H.2, QRph. sun-7H (based on presence of the marker, closely associated to the respective QTLs) was observed in international commercial barley germplasm and hence providing an opportunity for rapid integration into breeding programmes. The identified candidate markers closely linked to these QTLs will assist in selecting and assembling new APR gene combinations; expectantly this will help in achieving good levels of durable resistance for controlling BLR.  相似文献

We developed new F1 hybrids of Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa L. ssp. pekinensis) that allow cultivation earlier in spring without heating by introducing extremely late-bolting alleles at two homologs of the flowering repressor Flowering Locus C (BrFLC2 and BrFLC3) from non-heading ‘Leafy Green Parental Line No. 2’. These new F1 hybrids were produced by the following four steps. First, the extremely late bolting selected lines were developed. These selected lines headed in spring after overwintering cultivation, whereas the conventional F1 cultivars flowered. Secondly, an investigation of the three plantings showed that our F1 hybrids formed heads when seeds were sown from mid-February to early March, whereas the conventional F1 cultivar did not form heads because of premature bolting. Thirdly, we identified some F1 hybrids with extremely late bolting during early spring cultivation in an investigation of many F1 hybrids. Finally, based on an investigation across four cold regions for 2 years, we compared the commercialization rate, defined as the proportion of plants greater than 2000 g in weight and with a flowering stalk less than 10 cm long. Then we identified a F1 of MS02 × 12-04 which had a high commercialization rate on average (92%), whereas the rates of three conventional F1 cultivars were only 0–2%. In the near future, these F1 hybrids will be valuable late-bolting cultivars despite climate change, permitting stable cultivation and harvest over wide regions.  相似文献

Previous studies reported that some genotypes with introgressed Festuca chromosome segment(s) in Lolium genome showed enhanced winter hardiness compared to Lolium. The aim of this study was to search comprehensively for the Festuca pratensis chromosome regions affecting winter hardiness-related traits when introgressed into the Lolium perenne genome. Association between F. pratensis introgression and winter hardiness-related traits (fall and winter hardiness indexes, early-spring dry matter yield, and freezing tolerance) were screened in the diploid introgression populations (n = 203) that had some F. pratensis chromosome segments introgressed. Eighty-four intron markers corresponding to unique rice genes randomly distributed across the genome were used for genotyping. Winter hardiness of almost all plants in the introgression populations was lower than that of the F. pratensis and triploid hybrid parents, but the average was higher than that of L. perenne. A significant positive effect of F. pratensis introgression on early-spring dry matter yield was detected on chromosome 7. This quantitative trait locus (QTL) was confirmed by linkage analysis using a backcross population with F. pratensis introgression in the target region of chromosome 7. However, the contribution of the newly identified QTL was rather small (6.7–9.6%), suggesting that superior winter hardiness of F. pratensis compared to L. perenne is conferred by multiple small-effect QTLs. We also detected a previously unreported negative effect of Festuca introgression on winter hardiness. Newly obtained QTL information in this study would contribute to the design of Festuca/Lolium hybrid breeding.  相似文献
