Tagging of restorer genes for wild abortive (WA) CMS source by studying a 222 individual plants from a F2 population of a cross between IR58025A × IR42686R. The restorer line IR42686R that was used in this study had been previously derived through random mating composite population (RMCP) involving 12 parents facilitated by IR36 genetic male sterility. Four Rf genes were tagged to simple sequence repeats (SSR) markers on chromosomes 1, 7, 10, 12 by recessive class analysis. The recombination frequency between a positive marker and Rf locus was calculated using maximum likelihood estimator assuming that all the 46 extremely sterile individual plants were homozygous at the targeted Rf locus. The recombination frequency between the marker and the restorer trait were converted to genetic distances using Kosambi function. A new Rf locus designated as Rf7 on chromosome 12 was found to be linked to RM7003 at a genetic distance of 13.3 cM (LOD 6.12). We report here first, a new molecular marker (RM 6344) linked to Rf4 locus on chromosome 7 that was previously mapped by trisomic analysis. RM443 and RM315 were flanking the Rf3 gene at a genetic distance of 4.4 (LOD 10.29) and 20.7 cM (LOD 3.98) on chromosome 1, respectively. The Rf6 was flanked on both side with SSR markers RM258 and RM591 at a genetic distance of 4.4 (LOD 10.29) and 23.3 cM (LOD 3.39) located on chromosome 10. The random mating composite population is an excellent breeding approach to develop superior restorer lines and for pyramiding different Rf genes of different CMS systems. Rf genes tagged with closely linked SSR markers would be facilitating marker assisted selection (MAS) in hybrid rice breeding program by reducing time and workload for identifying potential restorers. L. Bazrkar and A. J. Ali equally contributed to this work.  相似文献

Non‐pungent bell pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) lacks the cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) nuclear restorer allele, Rf, and CMS cannot be employed in its F1 hybrid seed production. To demonstrate that the genic male sterility (GMS) system in non‐pungent bell pepper can be converted to the CMS male sterility system, the conversion of GMS to CMS for non‐pungent bell pepper line GC3 was conducted by introgression of S‐type cytoplasm and the Rf allele from tropical pungent donors. After morphological traits were evaluated, two lines from BC1F1 containing S‐type cytoplasm and four lines from BC2F2 containing Rf allele, phenotypically similar to GC3, were obtained and could be employed as CMS male sterile lines and restorer lines for non‐pungent bell pepper. Four molecular markers potentially linked to traits of interest were also evaluated in BC1F1 and BC1F2 populations. This is the first time that GMS has been successfully converted to CMS in bell pepper, a significant contribution for bell pepper hybrid seed production.  相似文献

A new cytoplasmic male‐sterile (CMS) system for hybrid wheat breeding, YA‐type CMS line with the cytoplasmic mutant from the common wheat variety ‘CA8057’, was developed by the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology, Chinese Academy of Sciences. The pollen sterility of YA‐type CMS line was easily maintained but difficult to restore. Some sterile lines with desirable agronomic performance, such as msYA‐‘CA8057’ (BC17), msYA‐‘Yuandong 6’ (BC9), msYA‐‘Jin 411’ (BC9), msYA‐‘WL1’ (BC10), msYA‐‘Yanshi 9’ (BC10), msYA‐‘BPm16’ (BC9), msYA‐‘Jindong 8’ (BC9) and msYA‐‘Jinmai 33’ (BC9), were bred and a restorer line GR1 was screened with 26 new restorer lines being developed by transferring restorer genes from GR1. It was found that abnormal phenomena occurred at the uninucleate‐pollen stage and the abortive pollen was poor in starch content and other components. The variance analysis of agronomic traits in eight sterile lines indicated that there was no general negative effect of cytoplasm. The genetic analysis for fertility restoration showed that two pairs of independent major genes (designated YARf1YARf1YArf2YArf2) and some minor genes could be involved in the fertility restoration in restorer line GR1, and YARf1 was epistatic over YARf2 for the genetic effect of fertility restoration. As a new CMS system, the YA‐type CMS line was of potential value for hybrid wheat breeding and should be further studied.  相似文献

Cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS)/restorer-of-fertility (Rf) is an economical and efficient system to produce F1 hybrid seeds. Although the CMS/Rf system has been used to produce hybrid seeds of hot peppers, this system has never been used for sweet pepper seed production, presumably due to the inability to select stable restorer lines during the breeding process. To test the feasibility of the CMS/Rf system in sweet pepper breeding, we investigated the distribution of haplotypes of previously developed, CMS-associated markers (orf456, ψ atp6-2, CRF-SCAR, OPP13-CAPS, PR-CAPS, and PR-SNP) in 27 commercial sweet pepper F1 hybrids and 12 breeding lines. When CMS-associated cytoplasmic markers orf456 and ψ atp6-2 were applied, male sterile cytoplasm was not detected in commercial sweet pepper cultivars. When nuclear haplotype markers linked to Rf were applied, all sweet pepper cultivars showed haplotype 3, haplotype 1, and the rf genotype for OPP13-CAPS, PR-CAPS, and CRF-SCAR, respectively. In contrast, we were able to detect male sterile cytoplasm in some breeding lines, and we were also able to detect polymorphisms for PR-CAPS between stable and unstable maintainer lines. The 17T7-SNP also showed polymorphisms between unstable and stable maintainer (or restorer) lines. In conclusion, we expect that it will be possible to develop stable A, B, and C sweet pepper lines using CMS-associated markers and that this will eventually lead to successful implementation of the CMS/Rf system to produce F1 hybrid sweet pepper seeds.  相似文献

In this study, AFLP and SSR techniques were combined with the bulk segregant analysis (BSA) method to map the restorer gene BrRfp using an F2‐segregating population comprising 258 individuals developed by crossing the polima (pol)‐like cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) line 06J45 and the restorer line 01S325 of heading Chinese cabbage. A survey of 2048 AFLP primer pairs identified 21 polymorphic fragments, approximately half of which exhibited high similarity with the A09 chromosome sequence of Brassica rapa in the Brassica database (BRAD). Based on the genome sequence, three specific AFLP fragments linked with BrRfp were successfully converted into sequence‐characterized amplified region (SCAR) markers, named SC1233, SC2673 and SC2141. Subsequently, 178 pairs of SSR primers were redesigned for further screening, with five producing polymorphic amplification patterns. Linkage analysis showed that these markers were distributed along both sides of the BrRfp gene, with two markers, SSR03 and SSR2528, co‐segregating with the BrRfp locus in the F2 population. These results may be valuable for marker‐assisted selection and map‐based cloning in heading Chinese cabbage.  相似文献

The columnar phenotype is a very valuable genetic resource for apple breeding because of its compact growth form determined by the dominant gene Co. Using bulked segregant analysis combined with several DNA molecular marker techniques to screen the F1 progeny of Spur Fuji × Telamon (heterozygous for Co), 9 new DNA markers (6 RAPD, 1 AFLP and 2 SSRs) linked to the Co gene were identified. A total of 500 10-mer random primers, 56 pairs of selective AFLP primers and 8 SSR primer pairs were screened. One RAPD marker S1142682, and the AFLP marker, E-ACT/M-CTA346, were converted into SCAR markers designated SCAR682 and SCAR216, respectively. These markers will enable early selection in progenies where Co is difficult to identify. The Co gene was located between the SSR markers CH03d11 and COL on linkage group 10 of the apple genetic linkage map. Finally, a local genetic map of the region around the Co gene was constructed by linkage analysis of the nine new markers and three markers developed earlier.  相似文献

The present study was conducted to investigate the relationship between parental molecular marker diversity and hybrid performance in both intra‐ and interspecific hybrids of cotton to evaluate the feasibility of predicting hybrid performance using molecular markers. Three cytoplasmic male sterile (CMS) lines were crossed with 10 restorer lines to produce 22 F1 hybrids during 2003. Of 22 F1s, 14 hybrids were intraspecific (Gossypium hirsutum × G. hirsutum) and eight interspecific (G. hirsutum × G. barbadense). These 22 F1 hybrids and their parents were evaluated for yield and fibre quality traits at Zhejiang University, Hangzhou, China during 2004 and 2005. Genetic distances (GD) among the parents were calculated from 56 random‐amplified polymorphic DNAs (RAPD) and 66 simple sequence repeat (SSR) marker data, and their correlation with hybrid performance and heterosis were analysed. The parents could be discriminated into G. hirsutum and G. barbadense clusters by cluster analysis based on both RAPD and SSR markers data. The correlation (r = 0.503, P ≤ 0.05) was calculated between GDrapd (GD based on RAPD markers) and GDssr (GD based on SSR markers). Correlation of GD with hybrid performance and heterosis differed considerably between intra‐ and interspecific hybrids. The correlation between GD and hybrid performance was non‐significant for most of traits within the hybrids of G. hirsutum species. However, it was significantly and positively correlated for fibre length, fibre strength and elongation in interspecific hybrids. The relationship between GD and heterosis was observed to be positively significant for boll weight within hybrids of G. hirsutum with significant and negative correlations for fibre length and elongation. In conclusion, the power of predicting hybrid performance using molecular markers in cotton is low. But, the relationship between SSR marker heterozygosity and hybrid performance can be used to predict fibre length during interspecific hybrid cotton breeding.  相似文献

Heterosis is an important way to improve yield and quality for many crops. Hybrid rice and hybrid maize contributed to enhanced productivity which is essential to supply enough food for the increasing world population. The success of hybrid rice in China has led to a continuous interest in hybrid wheat, even when most research on hybrid wheat has been discontinued in other countries for various reasons including low heterosis and high seed production costs. The Timopheevii cytoplasmic male sterile system is ideal for producing hybrid wheat seeds when fertility restoration lines with strong fertility restoration ability are available. To develop PCR-based molecular markers for use in marker-assisted selection of fertility restorer lines, two F2 populations derived from crosses R18/ND36 and R9034/ND36 were used to map fertility restoration genes in the two elite fertility restorer lines (R-lines) R18 and R9034. Over 678 SSR markers were analyzed, and markers closely linked to fertility restoration genes were identified. Using SSR markers, a major fertility restoration gene, Rf3, was located on the 1B chromosome in both populations. This gene was partially dominant in conferring fertility restoration in the two restorer lines. SSR markers Xbarc207, Xgwm131, and Xbarc61 are close to this gene. These markers may be useful in marker-assisted selection of new restorer lines with T. timopheevii cytoplasm. Two minor QTL conferring fertility restoration were also identified on chromosomes 5A (in R18) and 7D (in R9034) in two R-lines.  相似文献

The wild abortive cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS‐WA) system, an ideal type of sporophytic CMS in indica rice, is used for the large‐scale commercial production of hybrid rice. Searching for restorer genes is a good approach when phenotyping is very time‐consuming and requires the determination of spikelet sterility in testcross progeny. To establish more precisely the genetical and physical maps of the Rf4 gene, high‐resolution mapping of this locus was carried out using simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers and newly designed markers in a F2 population. The genetic linkage analysis indicated that five SSR markers (RM6737, RM304, RM171, RM5841 and RM228) on the long arm of chromosome 10 were linked with the Rf4 gene. Rf4 was flanked by two SSR markers RM171 and RM6737 at distances of 3.2 and 1.6 cM, respectively. Also, within the region between Rf4 gene and RM171, a newly designed primer pair, AB443, produced two sterile‐specific markers, AB443‐400 and AB443‐500, 0.5 and 1.03 cM from the gene. The flanking markers identified give promise for their application in molecular marker‐assisted selection (MAS) and they are also suitable for starting chromosome walking to clone Rf4 gene in the near future.  相似文献

The Rfo fertility restorer gene for the Ogura cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) applied for oilseed rape hybrid seed production can be monitored with the use of the RAPD OPC021150 marker while molecular breeding. The aim of this work was to convert the RAPD marker into a more suitable SCAR marker. Total DNA was isolated from a doubled haploid line derived from the line BO20 (INRA, France). A fragment of 1150‐bp linked to the Rfo gene was PCR amplified with the use of the RAPD OPC02 primer, cloned and sequenced. A pair of primers was designed and PCR amplification was performed to develop a SCAR marker for the Rfo gene. The new marker was applied for analysis of 220 oilseed rape lines comprising doubled haploid and inbred restorer lines, restored hybrids as well as F1 and F2 recombinant generations involving restorer lines. Simultaneously, the RAPD OPC02 marker was used and it revealed that the markers are equivalent to each other. However, the developed new SCAR marker has made the analysis more practical, rapid and efficient.  相似文献

Previously, novel cytoplasmic male-sterility (CMS) caused by DCGMS cytoplasm was discovered in radish (Raphanus sativus L.) introduced from Uzbekistan. We performed extensive progeny tests and identified two fertility restorer lines (‘R171’ and ‘R121’) for this new CMS. Two F1 hybrid populations were self-pollinated and backcrossed to produce F2 and BC populations. Inheritance patterns of male-sterility in segregating populations varied depending on paternal lines. Segregation of male-sterility in F2 populations originating from the cross between MS19 and R121 showed that a single locus was involved in fertility restoration. However, populations originating from the cross between MS15 and R171 showed the involvement of more than one restorer-of-fertility genes. The single fertility restorer locus identified in the cross between MS19 and R121 was designated Rfd1 locus. Bulked segregant analysis was performed using RAPD and AFLP, which identified one marker each. Both RAPD and AFLP markers were converted into simple PCR-based co-dominant markers after their isolated flanking sequences were analyzed. Indels 773-bp and 67-bp in length were identified between two Rfd1 allele-linked flanking sequences of the RAPD and AFLP fragments, respectively, then utilized to develop simple PCR markers. In addition, we prove that the newly identified Rfd1 locus is independent of the Rfo locus, another radish fertility restorer for CMS caused by Ogura cytoplasm.  相似文献

Two RAPD markers linked to a major fertility restorer gene in pepper   总被引：25，自引：0，他引：25  
Both major and minor genes control the restoring of fertility in the cytoplasmic male-sterility system in pepper (Capsicum annuum L.). Bulked segregant analysis (BSA) was applied to identify molecular markers linked to a major restorer gene (Rf) using the F2 population of NiujiaojiaoNo.21 (rfrf)/Xiangtanwan (RfRf). Two random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers linked to this allele were detected with 520 decamer primers with arbitrary sequences. OP131400 is a tightly linked marker with a genetic distance of0.37 cm. OW19800 is on the opposite side with a distance of 8.12 cm. Both markers were repeatable and easy to score. A panel of genotypes, including 13elite inbred lines with different fertility restoring ability, were assayed for the presence ofOP131400 and OW19800. The markers are absent in all sweet pepper lines, indicating that they will be most helpful for transferring Rf into sweet pepper lines. With the aid of these markers, the size of the backcross population for testcrosses can be minimized. Furthermore, these markers will be useful in genetic analysis of the minor genes. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.  相似文献

Over the past decade, M‐type cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) line W931A and a variety of restorer lines have been exploited for the release of hybrid seeds in soybean (Glycine max). However, the identities of restorer genes in the nuclei of soybean restorer lines are still unclear. In this study, we analysed the inheritance pattern of restorer locus Rf‐m from restorer line WR016 and constructed a high‐resolution map of this locus. Results showed that Rf‐m in WR016 is a monogenic dominant gene located within a 162.4‐kb region on chromosome 16, which is flanked on each side by new developed simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers GmSSR1602 and GmSSR1610 at a distance of 0.11 and 0.25 cM, respectively. Nineteen open reading frames (ORFs) were predicted in this region. Of these, seven genes arranged in tandem on chromosome 16 encode pentatricopeptide repeat (PPR) proteins, which is similar to other reported restorer loci in plants. These results lay a solid foundation for map‐based cloning of the Rf‐m gene and will be helpful for marker‐assisted selection of elite CMS restorer lines.  相似文献

The cytoplasmic male sterile (CMS) wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) line KTP116A developed at Northwest A&F University, Yangling, China, was sterile at temperatures below 18 °C and fertile at temperatures above 20 °C during Zadok’s growth stages 45–52. The possibility of a two-line system has a promising future for hybrid wheat production. The present study describes morphological differences in pollen abortion behavior at different temperatures, and the genetics of the thermo-sensitive restorer gene(s) in line KTP116A. Cytological observations showed that abnormalities in development of male sterile anthers first appeared at the bi-nucleate stage. Only a few pollen grains go through the second mitosis to produce two sperm cells; most of those became abnormal pollen grains and shell structures without protoplast, confirming that the conversion from sterility to fertility in the CMS line was accompanied by changes in morphology and cytology. A BC1 population of 198 plants from a cross of male-sterile KTP116A and male fertile F1 TP116B/WM5-5 was developed to study the genetic control of thermo-sensitive sterility. Chi squared tests on data from back-crossed populations revealed that two recessive genes, designated rfv 1 sp and rfv 2 , were responsible for sterility of line KTP116A. Sixteen of 712 SSR markers were polymorphic between the parents and bulks. Four SSR markers, viz. Xgwm11, Xgwm18, Xgwm413 and Xbarc137, were linked to thermo-sensitive gene rfv 1 sp on chromosome 1BS of T. spelta, and another four markers were linked to rfv 2 located on chromosome 2A. This thermo-sensitive male sterile line can be used for production of experimental hybrids in order to test levels of heterosis.  相似文献

An alloplasmic mustard, Brassica juncea, has been synthesized by placing its nucleus into the cytoplasm of the related wild species Erucastrum canariense to express cytoplasmic male sterility. To achieve this, the sexual hybrid E. canariense (2n=18, EcEc) ×Brassica campestris (2n= 20, AA) was repeatedly backcrossed to B. juncea (2n= 36, AABB). Cytoplasmic male‐sterile (CMS) plants were recovered in the BC4 generation. These plants are a normal green and the flowers have slender, non‐dehiscing anthers that contain sterile pollen. Nectaries are well developed and female fertility is > 90%. The fertility restoration gene was introgressed to CMS B. juncea from the cytoplasmic donor E. canariense through pairing between chromosomes belonging to B. juncea with those of the E. canariense genome. The restorer plants have normal flowers, with well‐developed anthers containing fertile pollen. Meiosis proceeds normally. Pollen and seed fertility averaged 90% and 82%, respectively. F1 hybrids between CMS and the restorer are fully pollen fertile and show normal seed set. Preliminary results indicate that restoration is achieved by a single dominant gene. The constitution of the organelle genomes of the CMS, restorer and fertility restored plants is identical, as revealed by Southern analysis using mitochondrial and chloroplast probes atp A and psb D, respectively.  相似文献

Powdery mildew, caused by Blumeria graminis (DC.) E.O. Speer f. sp. tritici, is an important disease in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Bulk segregant analysis (BSA) was employed to identify SRAP (sequence‐related amplified polymorphism), sequence tagged site (STS) and simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers linked to the Pm4b gene, which confers good resistance to powdery mildew in wheat. Out of 240 SRAP primer combinations tested, primer combinations Me8/Em7 and Me12/Em7 yielded 220‐bp and 205‐bp band, respectively, each of them associated with Pm4b. STS‐241 also linked to Pm4b with a genetic distance of 4.9 cM. Among the eight SSR markers located on wheat chromosome 2AL, Xgwm382 was found to be polymorphic and linked to Pm4b with a genetic distance of 11.8 cM. Further analysis was carried out using the four markers to investigate marker validation for marker‐assisted selection (MAS). The results showed that a combination of the linked markers STS?241, Me8/Em7?220 and Xgwm382 could be used for marker‐assisted selection of the resistance gene Pm4b in wheat breeding programmes.  相似文献

A Brassica juncea line carrying an introgression from Moricandia arvensis restored male fertility to two cytoplasmic male‐sterile (CMS) B. juncea lines carrying either M. arvensis or Diplotaxis catholica cytoplasm. Genetics of fertility restoration was studied in the F1, F2, F3 and backcross generations of the cross between CMS and fertility‐restorer lines. No male‐sterile plants were found in F1‐F3 generations of the cross between CMS [M. arvensis] B. juncea and the restorer. However, a 1: 1 segregation for male sterility and fertility was observed when the F1 was pollinated with non‐restorer pollen from a euplasmic line. These results clearly show that restoration is mono‐genic and gametophytic. In CMS lines carrying D. catholica cytoplasm, the restorer conferred male fertility to the F1 and showed 3: 1 and 1: 1 segregations for male fertility and sterility in F2 and BC1 generations, respectively, indicating a monogenic, sporophytic mode of fertility restoration. The results were also supported by pollen stainability in the F1 which was about 65% in M. arvensis‐based CMS and >90% in D. catholica‐based CMS. The above results are discussed in the light of previous molecular studies which showed association between CMS and atpA in both systems.  相似文献

The present study was carried out with the objective to validate the molecular markers, which have been previously reported to be linked to fertility restorer (Rf) gene(s) for WA-CMS lines of rice. Two mapping populations involving fertility restorer lines for WA-cytoplasm, viz., (i) an F2 population derived from the cross IR58025A/KMR3R consisting of 347 plants and (ii) a BC1F1 population derived from the cross IR62829A/IR10198R//IR62829A consisting of 130 plants were analyzed. Nine SSR and three CAPS markers reported to be linked to Rf genes along with two previously unreported SSR markers were analyzed in the mapping populations. In both the populations studied, the trait of fertility restoration was observed to be under digenic control. Eight SSR markers (RM6100, RM228, RM171, RM216, RM474, RM311, MRG4456 and pRf1&2) showed polymorphism between the parents of the F2 population, while the SSR markers RM6100 and RM474 showed polymorphism between the parents of both the F2 and BC1F1 populations. Only one CAPS marker, RG146FL/RL was polymorphic between the parents of the BC1F1 population. RM6100 was observed to be closely segregating with fertility restoration in both the mapping populations and was located at a distance of ~1.2 cM. The largest phenotypic variation was accounted for the region located between RM311 and RM6100. Using the marker-trait segregation data derived from analysis of both the mapping populations, a local linkage map of the genomic region around Rf-4, a major fertility restoration locus on Chromosome 10 was constructed, and RM6100 was observed to be very close to the gene at a distance of 1.2 cM. The accuracy of the marker RM6100 in predicting fertility restoration was validated in 21 restorers and 18 maintainers. RM6100 amplified the Rf-4 linked allele in a majority of the restorers with a selection accuracy of 94.87%. Through the present study, we have established the usefulness of the marker RM6100 in marker-assisted selection for fertility restoration in segregating populations and identification of restorers while screening rice germplasm for their fertility restoration ability.  相似文献

A novel cytoplasmic male sterility‐fertility restoration system has been developed in rapeseed (Brassica napus). The cytoplasmic male sterile line 681A was derived from a spontaneous male sterile mutant in a newly released double‐low rapeseed cultivar ‘Xiangyou 13′. The restorer line 714R was identified in the interspecific progeny from a B. napus×B. juncea‐cross. Genetic analysis showed that fertility restoration for 681A cytoplasmic male sterility was controlled by a single dominant nuclear gene which might originate from B. juncea. The RAPD marker S1039‐520 was found to be linked to the restorer gene in F2 progeny of 681A × 714R with a recombination frequency of 5.45%.  相似文献

Sorghum is one of the pioneering cereal crops where cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) was successfully exploited for mass production of F1 hybrid seed. Mapping genes for fertility restoration (Rf) is an important aspect of understanding the molecular basis of fertility restoration in crop plants. In this study, we fine‐mapped a fertility restoration locus, Rf2 of sorghum reported earlier (Jordan, Mace, Henzell, Klein, & Klein, 2010 ), involving two F2 populations (296A × RS29 and 296A × DSV1) and newly developed SSR markers delimited Rf2 locus to 10.32‐kb region on chromosome 2. The Rf2 locus was tightly linked with two new SSRs, MS‐SB02‐3460 (0.14 cM) and MS‐SB02‐3466 (0.75 cM) on both sides, and hosted only one gene (Sobic.002G057050) of PPR gene family. Another new SSR marker developed in the study, MS‐SB02‐37912, forms the part of PPR gene and could act as a perfect marker in marker‐assisted breeding for fertility restoration involving Rf2 in sorghum breeding. The strong involvement of Sobic.002G057050 gene in fertility restoration was supported through RNA expression analysis.  相似文献
