Einkorn wheat, Triticum monococcum L. (2n = 2x = 14, AmAm genome), is a primitive, cultivated form of diploid wheat. The shortcoming of einkorn is that it lacks the free-threshing habit. Early heading and semi-dwarf traits are also required to fit modern agricultural practice. In the present study we developed T. monococcum pre-breeding germplasm having early, free threshing traits by utilizing an early heading source, two sources of soft glume (spike) and three sources of semi-dwarfism to combine their phenotypes into pre-breeding materials. We found two different genes determined free threshing of einkorn wheat. One of them was the sog (soft glume) gene from Triticum sinskajae Filat. et Kurkiev (2n = 2x = 14, AmAm genome) and another was the sos (soft spike) gene, which was completely linked or pleiotropic with the gene for semi-dwarfism. The genes sos, spd (short peduncle) and sd17654 (semi-dwarf CItr 17654) were utilized to develop semi-dwarf T. monococcum lines. Field performance of 6 early and free-threshing pre-breeding materials with sos and spd genes were tested over three crop seasons. Five semi-dwarf pre-breeding materials (PBMs) were obtained. However, these materials had slightly less grain yield than #252 (tall and hulled check) and PBM-1 (tall free-threshing check). Harvest index of the pre-breeding materials was improved due to the presence of sos and spd genes. If optimized cultivation practice is performed, these pre-breeding materials can be utilized as sources of early, free-threshing and semi-dwarf traits to produce modern T. monococcum varieties.  相似文献

Sugar beet hybrid varieties are produced through the crosses between male sterile lines and the multigerm pollinators. The uniformity of pollinators used for hybrid crosses depends on the presence of self-sterility (S s ) and self-fertility (S f ) genes. The aim of the study was to analyze correlation between hybrid performance and genetic distance or heterozygosity of the sugar beet pollinators. Twelve diploid pollinators classified as self-sterile (S s ) or self-fertile (S f ) and two cytoplasmic male sterile (CMS) lines were crossed in line × tester scheme, producing 24 F1 hybrids. The parents and the hybrids were evaluated for root yield and quality traits, from which F1 performance, combining abilities, mid-parent and high-parent heterosis were calculated. Parental genetic distance and diversity of the pollinators were estimated by SSR markers and, together with GCA and F1 performance, correlated with the heterosis effects. The S f hybrids had better GCA and higher values of root yield, root weight, and root circumference than the S s hybrids. Heterosis was recorded in more combinations with the S f than with the S s pollinators. Parameters of genetic diversity were higher in the S s (Na = 3.125; Ne = 2.341; He = 0.555) than in the S f pollinators (Na = 3.000; Ne = 2.188; He = 0.510). Genetic distance between the tested pollinators and the CMS lines was low (0.072–0.224) indicating that the genetic base of the investigated germplasm was narrow. Correlation of the heterosis effects with GD and heterozygosity was detected only for the root yield traits.  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

Maize (Zea mays L.) is the most important cereal crop produced in Ghana. However, yield of the crop is generally low, producing just about 1.7 t/ha. The low yield is attributed to continuous use of local/unimproved varieties. Generally, hybrid varieties have proven to out-yield the local/unimproved varieties due to improved vigour. Development of hybrid varieties depend on good understanding of combining ability and inheritance of important quantitative traits such as grain yield (GY). 45 half-diallel crosses generated from 10 extra-early maturing yellow inbred lines were evaluated in 2015 under rain-fed conditions. The objectives were to determine the genetic control, breeding value and estimate heritability for GY and agronomic traits of the inbred lines under contrasting growing environments in Ghana. General combining ability (GCA) and specific combining ability (SCA) were important in the inheritance of GY and agronomic traits of the inbred lines. However, GCA was more important than SCA across environments to suggest that additive gene action was more important than non-additive gene action in the inheritance of GY and agronomic traits in the inbred lines. High broad-sense heritability, for GY and other agronomic traits indicated preponderance of additive gene action in trait expression, thus, selection based on phenotypic expression could be feasible. Inbred lines P1, P4 and P8 were good combiners for high GY. The genotype, P4 × P8, was identified as the ideal and most yielding single-cross hybrid across research environments and should be further tested on-farm before commercialization.  相似文献

Peach powdery mildew is one of the major diseases of the peach. Various sources of resistance to PPM have thus been identified, including the single dominant locus Vr2 carried by the peach rootstock ‘Pamirskij 5’. To map Vr2, a linkage map based on microsatellite markers was constructed from the F2 progeny (WP2) derived from the cross ‘Weeping Flower Peach’ × ‘Pamirskij 5’. Self-pollinations of the parents were also performed. Under greenhouse conditions, all progenies were scored after artificial inoculations in two classes of reactions to PPM (resistant/susceptible). In addition to Vr2, WP2 segregated for three other traits from ‘Weeping Flower Peach’: Rm1 for green peach aphid resistance, Di2 for double-flower and pl for weeping-growth habit. With their genomic locations unknown or underdocumented, all were phenotyped as Mendelian characters and mapped: Vr2 mapped at the top of LG8, at 3.3 cM, close to the CPSCT018 marker; Rm1 mapped at the bottom of LG1, at a position of 116.5 cM, cosegregating with the UDAp-467 marker and in the same region as Rm2 from ‘Rubira’®; Di2 mapped at 28.8 cM on LG6, close to the MA027a marker; and pl mapped at 44.1 cM on LG3 between the MA039a and SSRLG3_16m46 markers. Furthermore, this study revealed, for the first time, a pseudo-linkage between two traits of the peach: Vr2 and the Gr locus, which controls the red/green color of foliage. The present work therefore constitutes a significant preliminary step for implementing marker-assisted selection for the four major traits targeted in this study.  相似文献

A genome-wide association study (GWAS) was conducted on a diversity panel of 103 cotton accessions over three seasons to determine genetic contributions to a range of cotton yield components including fibre quality, plant architecture and stomatal conductance traits. The accessions covered breeding lines, released cultivars and some obsolete cultivars that contributed significantly to modern breeding pools. They were genotyped with Illumina’s CottonSNP63 K single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) assay. Broad-sense heritability was low for yield component traits (\(h_{B}^{2}\) = 0.14–0.43), except for gin turnout and boll weight (\(h_{B}^{2}\)) = 0.74 and 0.59, respectively), and low to high for fibre quality traits (\(h_{B}^{2}\) = 0.26–0.89). Population structure analysis revealed extensive admixture and cryptic relatedness amongst the accessions. Genome-wide linkage disequilibrium (LD) analyses showed LD decayed, on average, within a physical distance of 5 Mbp and reduced to 2 Mbp at r 2 ≥ 0.2, suggesting that few markers are necessary for association mapping in cotton. A mixed linear model accounting for population structure and cryptic relatedness identified 17 and 50 significant SNP associations for fibre length and micronaire, respectively. GWAS failed to detect significant associations in other traits, with the contribution of any single SNP to the phenotypic falling below 5%. This may be due to the low level of DNA polymorphism in cotton and/or insufficient resolution provided by the cotton SNP chip. Whole genome sequencing combined with whole genomic selection approaches that do not require prior knowledge about the effect or function of individual SNPs may be better suited than GWAS for trait dissection and prediction in cotton breeding.  相似文献

Strawberry cultivars showed limited cold resistance in the Northeast of China, while we obtained a synthetic dodecaploid strawberry hybrid ‘YH15-10’ (2n = 12x = 84) which showed sufficient cold resistance in this area. The reciprocal crosses between F. × ananassa cv. ‘Allstar’ (2n = 8x = 56) and ‘YH15-10’ (2n = 12x = 84) were carried out to select cold resistant strawberry in this study. The 134 seedlings were obtained from the cross of Allstar × YH15-10, while failed in its reciprocal cross. The 30 randomly selected seedlings were examined in terms of morphological characters, chromosome numbers and cold resistance. Most morphological characters were widely separated among F1 progeny with a high broad-sense heritability, which showed that these variations mainly resulted from genetic effect. Some hybrids exhibited heterosis, especially in growth vigor and runner production. Among the 30 tested hybrids, 28 decaploids (2n = 10x = 70), one octoploid (2n = 8x = 56) and one enneaploid (2n = 9x = 63) were observed. The 63.3% hybrids demonstrated higher cold resistance than that of ‘Allstar’ at P < 0.05. These high polyploidy strawberries have potential values in commercial production and modern cultivar improvement.  相似文献

Tiller number per plant (TN) and plant height (PH) are important agronomic traits related to grain yield (GY) in rice (Oryza sativa L.). A total of 30 additive quantitative trait loci (A-QTL) and 9 significant additive × environment interaction QTLs (AE-QTL) were detected, while the phenotypic and QTL correlations confirmed the intrinsic relationship of the three traits. These QTLs were integrated with 986 QTLs from previous studies by metaanalysis. Consensus maps contained 7156 markers for a total map length of 1112.71 cM, onto which 863 QTLs were projected; 78 meta-QTLs (MQTLs) covering 11 of the 30 QTLs were detected from the cross between Dongnong422 and Kongyu131 in this study. A total of 705 predicted genes were distributed over the 21 MQTL intervals with physical length <0.3 Mb; 13 of the 21 MQTLs, and 34 candidate genes related to grain yield and plant development, were screened. Five major QTLs, viz. qGY6-2, qPH7-2, qPH6-3, qTN6-1, and qTN7-1, were not detected in the MQTL intervals and could be used as newly discovered QTLs. Candidate genes within these QTL intervals will play a meaningful role in molecular marker-assisted selection and map-based cloning of rice TN, PH, and GY.  相似文献

Numerous stripe rust resistance genes have been identified from wheat, and new virulent races of Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici have also emerged in recent years. Deployment of diverse combinations of resistance genes is an efficient way to combat virulent evolution of strip rust pathogen. In this study, publically available molecular markers were used to identify the distribution of 36 Yr genes in 672 wheat accessions. The effectiveness of Yr genes individually and in combinations was also evaluated in field conditions. The result showed effective resistance of some recently applied genes, such as Yr15 and Yr65. It also showed the lost efficacy of some once widely used genes, such as Yr9 and Yr10. Moreover, significant additive effects were observed in some gene combinations, such as Yr9 + Yr18 and Yr30 + Yr46. Proper deploying of Yr genes and utilizing the positive interactions will be helpful for durable resistance breeding in wheat.  相似文献

Striga is an important parasitic weed causing substantial economic losses in cereal and legume crop production in sub-Saharan Africa. Integrated Striga management approaches such as a combined use of Striga resistant varieties and Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. strigae (FOS), a biocontrol agent of Striga, are an option to control the parasite and to boost sorghum productivity. Understanding host gene action influencing Striga resistance, with or without FOS treatment, is key to developing improved sorghum varieties with durable resistance and high yield. The objective of this study was to determine the gene action and inheritance of Striga resistance using genetically diverse populations of sorghum involving FOS treatment. Twelve sorghum parents selected for Striga resistance, FOS compatibility or superior agronomic performances were crossed using a bi-parental mating scheme. The selected male and female parents and their F1 progenies, backcross derivatives and the F2 segregants were field evaluated at three locations in Tanzania known for their severe Striga infestations using a lattice experimental design with two replications. The following data were collected and subjected to generation mean analysis (GMA): days-to-50% flowering (DFL), seed yield per plant (SYP) and number of Striga per plant (SN). GMA showed the preponderance of additive genetic action contributing to the total genetic variation in the evaluated sorghum populations. The additive genetic effect for DFL, SYP and SN, with and without FOS treatments, ranged from 72.02 to 86.65% and 41.49 to 95.44%, 75.62 to 91.42% and 71.83 to 91.89%, and 77.35 to 93.56% and 72.86 to 95.84%, in that order. The contribution of non-additive genetic effects was minimal and varied among generations. FOS application reduced DFL and SN and improved SYP in most of the tested sorghum populations. DFL of sorghum populations was reduced by a mean of 8 days under FOS treatment compared to the untreated control in families such as 675 × 654, AS435 × AS426 and 1563 × AS436. FOS treatment improved SYP with a mean of 6.44 g plant?1 in 3424 × 3993 and 3984 × 672. The numbers of Striga plants were reduced with a mean of 16 plants due to FOS treatment in the crosses of 675 × 654, 1563 × AS436, 4567 × AS424, and 3984 × 672. The study demonstrated that additive genes were predominantly responsible for the inheritance of Striga resistance in sorghum. Pure line cultivar development targeting reduced DFL, SN and high SYP in the selected populations may provide enhanced response to selection for integrated Striga management (ISM) programme.  相似文献

Drought regularly affects rainfed lowland and upland rice ecosystems in Malaysia. Three drought yield QTLs, viz qDTY 2.2 , qDTY 3.1 and qDTY 12.1 successfully pyramided into MRQ74 to increase its yield under reproductive stage drought stress (RS). Forty-eight genotypes comprising 39 pyramided lines (PLs) with different qDTYs combinations, four parents including MRQ74 (recipient) and five checks were evaluated for morpho-physiological traits under RS and non-stress (NS). This study aims to determine which traits influenced by individual qDTY and qDTY combinations and to gain better understanding of QTL interactions in enhancing grain yield (GY) under RS. Results showed plant height, number of panicles, root length, root weight, relative water content and 100-grain weight increased while chlorophyll content and GY decreased under RS compared to NS. No significant difference was observed in days to flowering, leaf rolling and grain length between selected PLs and MRQ74 under RS. Six PLs with yield advantage (YA) of 208.17–1751.63 kg ha?1 compared to MRQ74 in RS but yielded similar to MRQ74 under NS were further selected. Under RS, qDTY class analysis showed qDTY 12.1 individually and combination qDTY 12.1  + ?qDTY 2.2 produced the highest yield of 1521.77 and 1092.30 kg ha?1 respectively. qDTY 12.1 as single or combination with other qDTY is the best qDTY in stabilizing GY under RS. PL-77 with qDTY 12.1 is the best PL with YA of more than 1100 kg ha?1 compared to MRQ74 in both RS and NS conditions can be recommended for cultivation in normal and drought-prone areas.  相似文献

Thorough understanding of the genetic mechanisms governing drought adaptive traits can facilitate drought resistance improvement. This study was conducted to identify chromosome regions harbouring QTLs contributing for water stress resistance in wheat. A RIL mapping population derived from a cross between W7984 (Synthetic) and Opata 85 was phenotyped for root length and root dry weight under water stress and non-stress growing conditions. ANOVA showed highly significant (p ≤ 0.01) variation among the RILs for both traits. Root length and root dry weight showed positive and significant (p ≤ 0.01) phenotypic correlation. Broad sense heritability was 86% for root length under stress and 65% for root dry weight under non-stress conditions. A total of eight root length and five root dry weight QTLs were identified under both water conditions. Root length QTLs Qrln.uwa.1BL, Qrln.uwa.2DS, Qrln.uwa.5AL and Qrln.uwa.6AL combined explained 43% of phenotypic variation under non-stress condition. Opata was the source of favourable alleles for root length QTLs under non-stress condition except for Qrln.uwa.6AL. Four stress specific root length QTLs, Qrls.uwa.1AS, Qrls.uwa.3AL, Qrls.uwa.7BL.1 and Qrls.uwa.7BL.2 jointly explained 47% of phenotypic variation. Synthetic wheat contributed favourable alleles for Qrls.uwa.1AS and Qrls.uwa.3AL. Two stable root dry weight QTLs on chromosomes 4AL and 5AL were consistently found in both water conditions. Three validation populations were developed by crossing cultivars Lang, Yitpi, and Chara with Synthetic W7984 to transfer two of the QTLs identified under stress condition. The F2.3 and F3.4 validation lines were phenotyped under the same level of water stress as RILs to examine the effect of these QTLs. There were 13.5 and 14.5% increases in average root length due to the inheritance of Qrls.uwa.1AS and Qrls.uwa.3AL, respectively. The result indicated that closely linked SSR markers Xbarc148 (Qrls.uwa.1AS) and Xgwm391 (Qrls.uwa.3AL) can be incorporated into MAS for water stress improvement in wheat.  相似文献

The yellow-green leaf color mutant (Ygm) is a spontaneous mutant derived from the common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivar Xinong1718. Genetic analysis has shown that a novel single incompletely dominant gene (Y1718) is responsible for the yellow leaf color phenotype. The progeny of Ygm exhibit three distinct leaf color phenotypes, i.e., yellow (Y), yellow-green (Yg), and normal green (G). Y plants have yellow-green leaves in the seedling stage, which become yellow or a strong gold-yellow in the booting stage, with dwarfism and thin tillers until the flowering stage, and underdeveloped thylakoid membranes without well-structured grana in the chloroplasts. Yg plants always have a yellow-green phenotype with a number of well-structured grana that are loosely connected with stroma lamellae in the chloroplasts, where their main agronomic traits are the same as Xinong1718 and G plants, but the seed yield is low. Compared with Xinong1718 and G plants, Y and Yg plants had much lower chlorophyll (Chl) a, Chl b, and carotenoid contents in the booting stage. Molecular analysis using an F2 population and F2:3 lines derived from a cross of Yg and Shannong1 indicated that the Y1718 gene is located on chromosome 2BS, where it is flanked by the simple sequence repeat marker Xwmc25 and expressed sequence tag-sequence tagged sites marker BE498358 at genetic distances of 1.7 and 4.0 cM, respectively. Our results facilitate the fine mapping and gene cloning of Y1718 to explore chlorophyll synthesis, metabolism, and development in wheat.  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

Enhanced root growth in plants is fundamental to improve soil water exploration and drought tolerance. Understanding of the variance components and heritability of root biomass allocation is key to design suitable breeding strategies and to enhance the response to selection. This study aimed to determine variance components and heritability of biomass allocation and related traits in 99 genotypes of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and one triticale (X. Triticosecale Wittmack) under drought-stressed and non-stressed conditions in the field and greenhouse using a 10?×?10 alpha lattice design. Days to heading (DTH), days to maturity (DTM), number of tillers (NPT), plant height (PH), spike length (SL), shoot and root biomass (SB, RB), root to shoot ratio (RS), thousand kernel weight (TKW) and yield (GY) were recorded. Analyses of variance, variance components, heritability and genetic correlations were computed. Significant (p?<?0.05) genetic and environmental variation were observed for all the traits except for spike length. Drought stress decreased heritability of RS from 47 to 28% and GY from 55 to 17%. The correlations between RS with PH, NPT, SL, SB and GY were weaker under drought-stress (r?≤???0.50; p?<?0.05) compared to non-stressed conditions, suggesting that lower root biomass allocation under drought stress compromises wheat productivity. The negative association between GY and RS (r?=???0.41 and ??0.33; p?<?0.05), low heritability (<?42%) and high environmental variance (>?70%) for RS observed in this population constitute several bottlenecks for improving yield and root mass simultaneously. However, indirect selection for DTH, PH, RB, and TKW, could help optimize RS and simultaneously improve drought tolerance and yield under drought-stressed conditions.  相似文献

Ogura cytoplasmic male sterility (Ogu-CMS) is widely used in the production of commercial hybrids of Brassica oleracea. However, the widespread application of the Ogu-CMS system in B. oleracea has hindered the germplasm innovation of Ogu-CMS resources due to the lack of a natural restorer line. Previously, the Ogu-CMS fertility-restored interspecific hybrids between rapeseed 15Y403 (2n = 38, AACC) and Chinese kale JL1 (2n = 18, CC) have been successfully produced. However, these progenies, which still contained a large proportion of rapeseed genomic components, showed poor fertility and a low seed setting rate under natural pollination. To improve fertility and seed setting, a successive backcross with JL1 was performed to produce BC2 progenies. Screening with the Rfo-specific marker, five individuals harboring the Rfo gene were identified among 98 BC2 progenies. These five individuals underwent background marker screening and an evaluation of agronomic traits and fertility. One individual (code: 15Q23) was identified with higher pollen viability, better seed setting under natural pollination, and a closer genetic background to the parent Chinese kale JL1. Many morphological traits showed no significant differences (P < 0.05) between 15Q23 and the backcross parent JL1. However, the average seed setting of 15Q23 under natural pollination was 0.72 seeds per pod, which was 50 times higher than that of BC1 progenies, and the average pollen viability was 87.07%, which was significantly better than that of the F1 and BC1 plants (P < 0.01). The genetic background of 15Q23 was more closer to the parent JL1 than that of BC1 plants and another BC2 fertility-restored individual, with 82% of the polymorphic alleles being the same as those of the parent Chinese kale JL1. Thus, the individual 15Q23 could be used as a donor plant for further backcrosses. This study lays the foundation for the development of Ogu-CMS restorer material in B. oleracea.  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

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

Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) yield is directly proportional to physio-morphological traits. A high-density genetic map consisting of 2575 markers was used for mapping QTL controlling stay-green and agronomic traits in wheat grown under four diverse water regimes. A total of 108 additive QTL were identified in target traits. Among them, 28 QTL for chlorophyll content (CC) were detected on 11 chromosomes, 43 for normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) on all chromosomes except 5B, 5D, and 7D, five for spikes per plant (NSP) on different chromosomes, nine for plant height (PH) on four chromosomes, and 23 for thousand-kernel weight (TKW) on 11 chromosomes. Considering all traits, the phenotypic variation explained (PVE) ranged from 3.61 to 41.62%. A major QTL, QNDVI.cgb-5A.7, for NDVI with a maximum PVE of 20.21%, was located on chromosome 5A. A stable and major PH QTL was observed on chromosome 4D with a PVE close to 40%. Most distances between QTL and corresponding flanking markers were less than 1 cM, and approximately one-third of the QTL coincided with markers. Each of 16 QTL clusters on 10 chromosomes controlled more than one trait and therefore could be regarded as pleiotropic regions in response to different water regimes. Forty-one epistatic QTL were identified for all traits having PVE of 6.00 to 25.07%. Validated QTL closely linked to flanking markers will be beneficial for marker-assisted selection in improving drought-tolerance in wheat.  相似文献

To reveal the mechanism of low triploid production, meiotic observation, induction of 2n pollen by colchicine, hybridization of colchicine-induced 2n pollen and pollen germination were conducted in Populus tomentosa clone 5088. Meiosis of the PMCs was initiated 24 h after it was cultured in the greenhouse. Results showed that the meiosis developed in a consecutive, asynchronous process. Analysis of the occurrence rate of colchicine-induced 2n pollen using the GLM-univariate revealed significant differences among the dominant meiotic stages (F = 45.822, P = 0.000). Significant differences also occurred among various colchicine injection times (F = 10.150, P = 0.004). The most effective stage for colchicine-induced 2n pollen occurred between the zygotene to diakinesis substages. Sixty-eight triploids were confirmed with both flow cytometric analysis and chromosome number-counting among the 3346 offspring. The highest triploid induction rate was 13.2%—significantly lower than the expected triploid production rate of 47.0%—indicating that the colchicine-induced 2n pollen was weak during fertilization. We found positive correlation between the efficiency of triploid production and the frequency of colchicine-induced 2n pollen (r = 0.961, P = 0.001) which suggests that the triploid production rate increased as the occurrence rate of colchicine-induced 2n pollen increased. Analysis using the GLM-univariate indicated that both pollen types (F = 87.50, P < 0.001) and durations of pollen germination (F = 7.61, P = 0.002) did have significant effects on the lengths of pollen-tubes. Haploid pollen-tubes were significantly longer than colchicine-induced 2n pollen-tubes. This suggests that haploid pollen has an advantage during fertilization.  相似文献
