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

To better understand the underlying mechanisms of agronomic traits related to drought resistance and discover candidate genes or chromosome segments for drought-tolerant rice breeding, a fundamental introgression population, BC3, derived from the backcross of local upland rice cv. Haogelao (donor parent) and super yield lowland rice cv. Shennong265 (recurrent parent) had been constructed before 2006. Previous quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping results using 180 and 94 BC3F6,7 rice introgression lines (ILs) with 187 and 130 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers for agronomy and physiology traits under drought in the field have been reported in 2009 and 2012, respectively. In this report, we conducted further QTL mapping for grain yield component traits under water-stressed (WS) and well-watered (WW) field conditions during 3 years (2012, 2013 and 2014). We used 62 SSR markers, 41 of which were newly screened, and 492 BC4F2,4 core lines derived from the fourth backcross between D123, an elite drought-tolerant IL (BC3F7), and Shennong265. Under WS conditions, a total of 19 QTLs were detected, all of which were associated with the new SSRs. Each QTL was only identified in 1 year and one site except for qPL-12-1 and qPL-5, which additively increased panicle length under drought stress. qPL-12-1 was detected in 2013 between new marker RM1337 and old marker RM3455 (34.39 cM) and was a major QTL with high reliability and 15.36% phenotypic variance. qPL-5 was a minor QTL detected in 2013 and 2014 between new marker RM5693 and old marker RM3476. Two QTLs for plant height (qPHL-3-1 and qPHP-12) were detected under both WS and WW conditions in 1 year and one site. qPHL-3-1, a major QTL from Shennong265 for decreasing plant height of leaf located on chromosome 3 between two new markers, explained 22.57% of phenotypic variation with high reliability under WS conditions. On the contrary, qPHP-12 was a minor QTL for increasing plant height of panicle from Haogelao on chromosome 12. Except for these two QTLs, all other 17 QTLs mapped under WS conditions were not mapped under WW conditions; thus, they were all related to drought tolerance. Thirteen QTLs mapped from Haogelao under WS conditions showed improved drought tolerance. However, a major QTL for delayed heading date from Shennong265, qDHD-12, enhanced drought tolerance, was located on chromosome 12 between new marker RM1337 and old marker RM3455 (11.11 cM), explained 21.84% of phenotypic variance and showed a negative additive effect (shortening delay days under WS compared with WW). Importantly, chromosome 12 was enriched with seven QTLs, five of which, including major qDHD-12, congregated near new marker RM1337. In addition, four of the seven QTLs improved drought resistance and were located between RM1337 and RM3455, including three minor QTLs from Haogelao for thousand kernel weight, tiller number and panicle length, respectively, and the major QTL qDHD-12 from Shennong265. These results strongly suggested that the newly screened RM1337 marker may be used for marker-assisted selection (MAS) in drought-tolerant rice breeding and that there is a pleiotropic gene or cluster of genes linked to drought tolerance. Another major QTL (qTKW-1-2) for increasing thousand kernel weight from Haogelao was also identified under WW conditions. These results are helpful for MAS in rice breeding and drought-resistant gene cloning.  相似文献

Grain protein content is an important analysis target to determine grain quality in rice. This study analyzed quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for the content of grain protein and amylose using the chromosomal segment substitution lines developed from ‘Koshihikari’ and ‘Nona Bokra’. It also evaluated the effects of target QTL on eating and cooking quality through the physical properties of cooked rice and its gel consistency. QTL analysis over 3 years detected the QTL on chromosome 12, TGP12, which consistently decreased total grain protein content via the ‘Nona Bokra’ allele. Selected CSSL with TGP12, CSSL-TGP12, showed a lower content of total grain protein in brown and milled rice, and had similar amylose content, grain size, and weight of brown rice, compared with ‘Koshihikari’. Based on the results of sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, brown rice with CSSL-TGP12 had no remarkable decrease or loss in any specific protein. Regarding eating and cooking quality, CSSL-TGP12 did not show stable effects on physical properties, hardness, stickiness, or adherability of cooked rice or its gel consistency. These results suggest that TGP12 could be one of the key genetic factors for the alteration of grain protein content without an effect on eating or cooking quality.  相似文献

Fusarium wilt (FW; caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceris) and Ascochyta blight (AB; caused by Ascochyta rabiei) are two major biotic stresses that cause significant yield losses in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.). In order to identify the genomic regions responsible for resistance to FW and AB, 188 recombinant inbred lines derived from a cross JG 62 × ICCV 05530 were phenotyped for reaction to FW and AB under both controlled environment and field conditions. Significant variation in response to FW and AB was detected at all the locations. A genetic map comprising of 111 markers including 84 simple sequence repeats and 27 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) loci spanning 261.60 cM was constructed. Five quantitative trait loci (QTLs) were detected for resistance to FW with phenotypic variance explained from 6.63 to 31.55%. Of the five QTLs, three QTLs including a major QTL on CaLG02 and a minor QTL each on CaLG04 and CaLG06 were identified for resistance to race 1 of FW. For race 3, a major QTL each on CaLG02 and CaLG04 were identified. In the case of AB, one QTL for seedling resistance (SR) against ‘Hisar race’ and a minor QTL each for SR and adult plant resistance against isolate 8 of race 6 (3968) were identified. The QTLs and linked markers identified in this study can be utilized for enhancing the FW and AB resistance in elite cultivars using marker-assisted backcrossing.  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

Valsa canker (Valsa ceratosperma (Tode ex Fr.) Maire) is one of the most destructive fungal diseases of apple, especially in Eastern Asia. In this study, the first high density genetic linkage map of Malus asiatica × Malus domestica was constructed by 640 simple sequence repeats (SSRs) and 490 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), which spanned 1497.5 cM with an average marker interval of 1.33 cM per marker. Quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for apple’s resistance to V. ceratosperma isolates 03-8 and xc56 were identified using the linkage map. Lesion lengths were used as the phenotypic data for the QTL analysis, which were measured on 1-year-old shoots inoculated with conidia of the two isolates. One QTL for resistance to isolate 03-8 was mapped on LG 16, and one QTL for resistance to isolate xc56 was detected on LG 9. Our research not only promoted the further understanding of the genetic basis of apple’s resistance to Valsa canker but also provided two molecular markers that might be used in future marker-assisted selection for resistance in apple breeding programs.  相似文献

The ongoing rise in temperatures caused by global climate change is a critical climatic risk factor for rice production, and enhancing rice heat tolerance is an area of particular research interest. A recombinant inbred line (RIL) mapping population was developed from heat sensitive, rice cultivar IAPAR-9 crossed with heat tolerant, Liaoyan241. RIL and parental lines were exposed to high temperature at the heating and flowering stage in experiments in 2014 and 2015. As indicators of heat tolerance, the seed setting rate under natural (NS) and heat stress (HTS) conditions were measured, and the reduction rate of seed set (RRS) was calculated. Quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis revealed eleven heat tolerance QTLs located on chromosomes 1, 3, 4, 5, and 6. Single QTL contribution rates were 4.75–13.81% and effect values were ? 5.98 to 5.00. Four major QTLs (qNS1, qNS4, qNS6, and qRRS1) were stable detected in different environments in both years. Thirteen QTLs with epistatic interactions and nine QTLs with environmental interactions were also detected. Major QTLs were all involved in epistatic and environmental interactions. Three QTLs from the SSR marker interval RM471 to RM177 region of chromosome 4 (qNS4, qHTS4, and qRRS4) were all involved in epistatic and environmental interactions and contributed to phenotypic variation, indicating that this region constituted a major QTL hotspot. The major QTL for heat tolerance identified in this study will aid in breeding tolerant cultivars and facilitating investigation of the molecular underpinnings of heat tolerance in rice.  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

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

Upland cotton is an important economic crop that produces high-quality fiber for the textile industry. With the development of next-generation sequencing technology and improvements in human living standards, it has become possible to improve the fiber quality and yield of cotton with high-throughput molecular markers. Upland cotton 901-001 is an excellent, high-quality, non-transgenic cultivar, while the sGK156 strain shows high resistance to verticillium wilt. The phenotype of F1 plants, certified in 2008 as national variety CCRI70, shows positive transgressive characteristics such as high quality, high yield, and resistance to verticillium wilt. We developed a population of 250 recombination inbred lines from a cross between 901-001 and sGK156. The fiber strength trait of plants from nine environments was collected, and a genetic linkage map of Chr24 comprising 168 SNP marker loci covering a genetic distance of 107.46 cM and with an average distance of 0.64 cM was generated. QTLs were identified across the nine environments using the composite interval mapping method. A total of eight QTLs for FS were identified on Chr24, three of which were stably expressed in at least five environments. Some candidate genes located in qFS-c24-2 and qFS-c24-4 were functionally annotated as potentially playing important roles in fiber development, with homologous genes reported in Arabidopsis thaliana. These results suggest that QTLs identified in the present study could contribute to improving FS and may be applicable for marker-assisted selection.  相似文献

The timing of spring bud flush (TBF) in tea plants (Camellia sinensis) is an adaptive critical and economically important trait; thus, it has been a focus of many tea-breeding programs. Previously, we reported the mapping of two major and partial linked TBF QTLs onto the LG01 of C. sinensis using a full-sib population of ‘Longjing 43’ × ‘Baihaozao’. In this study, we further tested the QTL stability and expression variation in different years, experimental sites, and crossing parents. We genotyped 157 additional F1 individuals from the ‘Longjing 43’ × ‘Baihaozao’ cross and 173 F1 individuals from ‘Wuniuzao’ × ‘Longjing 43’ cross with 16 and 17 SSR markers on LG01, respectively. We also recorded the TBF trait of the two populations at Hangzhou and/or Shengzhou sites in the spring of 2014, 2015 and/or 2017. The TBF QTLs were significant (P < 0.001 at the chromosome-wide level) in all tested years, sites, and populations, but the explained phenotypic variation ranged considerable (26.2–40.5%, two QTLs were considered together in the Interval Mapping). Interestingly, the QTLs only segregated in ‘Longjing 43’ among the three parents involved. After grouping the individuals by the genotypes of the two markers closest to the QTLs, a maximum difference of 9.22 days for the average TBF was observed between the earliest and latest groups.  相似文献

Both low-temperature germinability (LTG) and cold tolerance at the seedling stage (CTS) are important traits for rice. In this study, a rice population of recombinant inbred lines (RILs), derived from the backcross population of a cross between Dongnong422 and Kongyu131, was developed to detect quantitative trait loci (QTL) affecting LTG and CTS by using seed of different storage times. Correlation analysis indicated that there was no significant relationship between LTG and CTS, suggesting that cold tolerance might be genetic differences for LTG and CTS. In total, Twelve and twenty-three major QTLs were detected for LTG and CTS, respectively, which could explain greater than 10% of the phenotypical variation. Eight (qCG12-1, qGI12-1, qGV9-1, qMLIT12-1, qPV6-1, qMDG12-1, qLDWcold10-1, qLFWcold10-1) significant QTLs were mapped for different storage time, it concluded that such QTLs were not affected by environment (storage time) and were closely related QTLs to cold tolerance. One or more QTLs were identified for each trait with some of these QTLs co-locating, qMLIT7-1, qCG7-1, and qGI7-1 for LTG, qLFWcold10-1, and qLDWcold10-1 for CTS with contributions over 15% were mapped common marker interval, respectively, co-location of QTLs for different traits can be an indication that a locus has pleiotropic effects on multiple traits due to a common mechanistic basis. Two lines, RIL128 and RIL73, might be valuable to improve the LTG and CTS through a combination of crosses. The identified QTLs might be applicable to improve the rice cold tolerance by the marker-assisted selection approach.  相似文献

Quantitative trait loci (QTLs) with additive (a), additive × additive (aa) epistatic effects, and their treatmental interactions (at and aat) were studied under salt stress and normal conditions at seedling stage of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). A set of 182 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) derived from cross Xiaoyan 54 × Jing 411 were used. A total of 29 additive QTLs and 17 epistasis were detected for 12 traits examined, among which eight and seven, respectively, were identified to have QTL × treatment effects. Physiological traits rather than biomass traits were more likely to be involved in QTL × treatment interactions. Ten intervals on chromosomes 1A, 1D, 2A (two), 2D, 3B, 4B, 5A, 5B and 7D showed overlapping QTLs for different traits; some of them represent a single locus affecting different traits and/or the same trait under both treatments. Eleven pairs of QTLs were detected on seemingly homoeologous positions of six chromosome groups of wheat, showing synteny among the A, B and D genomes. Ten pairs were detected in which each pair was contributed by the same parent, indicating a strong genetic plasticity of the QTLs. The results are helpful for understanding the genetic basis of salt tolerance in wheat and provide useful information for genetic improvement of salt tolerance in wheat by marker-assisted selection.  相似文献

Low phosphorus availability is a major factor limiting rice productivity. In this study, a population of backcross recombinant inbred lines (BILs) derived from an inter-specific cross (Oryza sativa L. × O. rufipogon Griff.) was used for genetic linkage map construction and quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping. The results showed that a linkage map consisting of 153 markers was constructed. Twenty-one out of 231 BILs were tolerant of low-phosphorus according to the index to P-deficiency tolerance. Twenty-three QTLs on chromosomes 1, 2, 3, 7, 8, 9 and 11 were detected, of which eight QTLs showed high (22.93–37.32%) contribution to phenotypic variation. In addition, most of QTLs in this study (18 out of 23 QTLs) were located and overlapped on the chromosome 1, 3 and 11, which individually explained 6.07–34.70% phenotypic variation, indicating that there might be multiple main effect QTLs related to P-deficiency tolerance in O. rufipogon, and these QTLs might cluster in the same region. These results would provide helpful information for cloning and utilizing the P-deficiency tolerance-responsive genes from O. rufipogon.  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

Kernel size and weight are important agronomic traits, as well as crucial traits that influence grain yield in maize. In the present study, 150 F7 recombinant inbred lines derived from a cross 178×K12 were evaluated for kernel length (KL), kernel width (KW), kernel thickness (KT), and 100-kernel weight (HKW) across seven environments. Natural variations in KL, KW, KT, and HKW were observed in the population. A set of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for the kernel-related traits were identified by inclusive composite interval mapping method. For the four kernel traits from seven environments and the best linear unbiased prediction data, a total of 52 QTLs were detected, which distributed on all chromosomes except chromosome 6. The LOD values ranged from 2.52 to 8.91, the additive effect from ??2.22 to 1.37, and the range of individually explaining phenotypic variation was from 5.8 to 23.49%. Amongst these QTLs, most were detected only in one or two environments. Three stable QTLs, qKL4-1 at bin 4.07/4.08, qKW4-2 at bin 4.06 and qKT2-1 at bin 2.02/2.03, were identified across at least three environments. Besides, several overlapping QTLs associated with multiple traits were identified. For example, qKW3-1 for KW and qHKW3-1 for HKW were located in the same marker interval at Bin 3.01/3.02. These stable QTLs and overlapping QTLs found in this study will contribute to the understanding of genetic components of grain yield and provide the foundation for molecular marker-assisted breeding in maize.  相似文献

The cacao tree (Theobroma cacao L.) is a species of great importance because cacao beans are the raw material used in the production of chocolate. However, the economic success of cacao is largely limited by important diseases such as black pod, which is responsible for losses of up to 30–40% of the global cacao harvest. The discovery of resistance genes could extensively reduce these losses. Therefore, the aims of this study were to construct an integrated multipoint genetic map, align polymorphisms against the available cacao genome, and identify quantitative trait loci (QTLs) associated with resistance to black pod disease in cacao. The genetic map had a total length of 956.41 cM and included 186 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers distributed among 10 linkage groups. The physical “in silico” map covered more than 200 Mb of the cacao genome. Based on the mixed model predicted means of Phytophthora evaluation, a total of 6 QTLs were detected for Phytophthora palmivora (1 QTL), Phytophthora citrophthora (1 QTL), and Phytophthora capsici (4 QTLs). Approximately 1.77–3.29% of the phenotypic variation could be explained by the mapped QTLs. Several SSR marker-flanking regions containing mapped QTLs were located in proximity to disease regions. The greatest number of resistance genes was detected in linkage group 6, which provides strong evidence for a QTL. This joint analysis involving multipoint and mixed-model approaches may provide a potentially promising technique for detecting genes resistant to black pod and could be very useful for future studies in cacao breeding.  相似文献

Integration of alleles for bacterial canker resistance into new sweet cherry cultivars requires information on the sources of resistance in the germplasm. Five market-leading sweet cherry cultivars, ‘Rainier’, ‘Sweetheart’, ‘Bing’, ‘Regina’ and ‘Chelan’, advanced selections ‘AA’, ‘BB’, ‘CC’, ‘DD’, ‘EE’, ‘GG’, and ‘PMR-1’ used as breeding parents in the Washington State University’s Sweet Cherry Breeding Program were evaluated. Comparative genotypic disease severity was obtained with three methods of inoculation (leaf wounding with carborundum, cut wounds in leaf mid-rib and shoot tip) on whole plants. Additionally, genotypic data on susceptibility of detached leaves versus fruit and an assessment of the movement of Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae (Pss) population in inoculated shoots were obtained. Genotype susceptibility was significantly (P ≤ 0.05) influenced by inoculation method, with shoot inoculation providing the best separation of resistance levels among genotypes. A low correlation (r = 0.26, P = 0.21) was observed between disease responses measured on detached leaf versus fruit, while a moderately high correlation (r = 0.50, P = 0.10) was found among bacterial populations in the tissues and in the degree of symptoms expressed. By all comparative methods, the advanced selections, as well as, ‘PMR-1’, were less susceptible than the market-leading cultivars. Also, movement of Pss from shoot tip inoculation points to the shoot base was not detected for advanced selections ‘AA’, ‘BB’, ‘DD’, and ‘EE’. This study reveals that the advanced selections could be potential sources of resistance alleles to bacterial canker. This is the first evaluation of the advanced selections for bacterial canker disease.  相似文献

Plant height determines plant biomass yield, harvest index and economic yield. We analyzed quantitative trait loci (QTL) and gene action controlling plant height. We generated the maternal and paternal testcrossing (TC/M and TC/P) populations based on a recombinant inbred line population. Data for plant height at t1, t2, t3, t4 or t5 stages were collected over 2 years from 3 TC/M field trials and 2 TC/P field trials. At single-locus level, 32 QTLs at five stages and 24 conditional QTLs at four intervals were detected, and 14 QTLs shared in different years or populations or stages. Plant height displayed dynamic characteristics through expression of QTLs. A total of 21 novel QTLs were detected and 11 QTLs validated the previous results. And 19 QTLs explained over 10% of phenotypic variation, such as qPH-Chr9-2, qPH-Chr19-4 and qPH-Chr22-4. The region of NAU5330-NAU1269 on chromosome 19 may be a desired target for genetic improvement of plant height in Upland cotton. In addition, five and eight heterotic loci were identified in TC/M and TC/P populations, respectively. Additive, partial dominance and overdominance effects were observed in both TC populations. We also identified 43 epistatic QTLs and QTLs by environment interactions by inclusive composite interval mapping method. Taken together, additive, partial dominance and overdominance effects together with epistasis explained the genetic basis of plant height in Upland cotton.  相似文献

The growth of evergreen azaleas (Rhododendron spp.) can be altered by iron (Fe) chlorosis when plants are cultivated in a neutral-alkaline substrate. In this study, morphological and physiological responses to alkalinity and Fe deficiency were evaluated in five diploid Japanese azaleas to assess their potential as resources for breeding. R. obtusum ‘Kirin’, R. indicum ‘Shinsen’, R. × pulchrum ‘Sen-e-oomurasaki’, R. indicum ‘Osakazuki’, and R. ripense were pot cultivated in a peat-based substrate for 10 weeks, in acid and alkaline growing media with both adequate and inadequate Fe nutrition. Plant performance was generally affected by high pH of the substrate, while Fe deficiency by itself influenced few of the evaluated parameters, possibly due to the complex adaptive response mechanisms of these slow growing ornamental shrubs. According to the biochemical and physiological variations recorded on a long period of cultivation, R. indicum ‘Osakazuki’ reported the best performance. This azalea could be a valuable resource for breeders.  相似文献
