Seventy eight clones from the cross between SCRI clone 12601ab1 and cv Stirling were used to explore the possibility of genetical
linkage analysis in tetraploid potato (Solanum tuberosum subsp. tuberosum). Clone 12601ab1 had quantitative resistance to Globodera pallida Pa2/3 derived from S. tuberosum subsp. andigena. The strategy adopted involved identifying single- (simplex) and double- (duplex) dose AFLP markers in the parents from segregation
ratios that could be unambiguously identified in their offspring, detecting linkage between a marker and a putative quantitative
trait locus (QTL) for resistance, and placing the QTL on the linkage map of markers. The numbers of scorable segregating markers
were 162 simplex ones present only in 12601ab1, 87 present in Stirling, and 32 present in both; and 72 duplex markers present
only in 12601ab1 and 45 present in Stirling. The total map length was 990.9 cM in 12601ab1 and 484.6 cM in Stirling. A QTL
with a resistance allele present in double dose (QQqq) in 12601ab1 was inferred from the associations between resistance scores
(square root of female counts) and two duplex markers linked in coupling, which, in turn, were linked in coupling to four
simplex markers also associated with resistance, but to a lesser degree. The largest marker class difference was the one for
the duplex marker P61M34=15. It accounted for 27.8% of the phenotypic variance in resistance scores, or approximately 30%
of the genotypic variance. Subsequently, this duplex marker was found to be linked in coupling with a duplex SSR allele Stm3016=a,
whose locus was shown to be on chromosome IV in a diploid reference mapping population. The other QTLs for resistance segregating
in the progeny were not identified for one or more of the following reasons: the markers did not cover the whole of the genome,
there were unfavourable repulsion linkages between the QTLs and markers, or the gene effects were not large enough to be detected
in an experiment of the size conducted. It is concluded that prospects appear good for detecting QTLs and using marker-assisted
selection in a tetraploid potato breeding programme, provided that, in future, the population size is increased to over 250
and more SSR markers are used to complement the AFLPs; the same is likely to be true for other autotetraploid crops.

Interval mapping of quantitative trait loci (QTL) for resistance to late blight, height, and maturity was performed on a tetraploid full-sib family of potato comprising 227 clones from a cross between a susceptible parent, 12601ab1, and a resistant cultivar, Stirling, which were of similar height and main crop maturity. Thirty-eight AFLP primer combinations provided 585 informative markers, and 23 SSRs proved useful for identifying linkage groups (LGs). A simplex QTL allele was found on LGV of Stirling close to marker STM3179, which was associated with early maturity, short plants, and susceptibility to blight and explained 54.7, 26.5, 26.3, and 17.5% of the variation for maturity, height, tuber blight, and foliage blight. When the residuals from the regressions of foliage and tuber blight on maturity were analyzed, there was no significant effect of a QTL on LGV, but a duplex QTL allele for resistance was found on LGIV of Stirling, which explained 30.7 and 13.6% of the variation for foliage and tuber blight on an additive model. Partial dominance for resistance explained even more of the variation, up to 37.2% for foliage blight. A major gene for blight resistance in Stirling was also mapped to LGXI. 相似文献

Analysis of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) and quantitative trait alleles (QTAs) for potato tuber yield and starch content 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1
R. Schäfer-Pregl E. Ritter L. Concilio J. Hesselbach L. Lovatti B. Walkemeier H. Thelen F. Salamini C. Gebhardt 《TAG. Theoretical and applied genetics. Theoretische und angewandte Genetik》1998,97(5-6):834-846
Using RFLP markers, QTLs for tuber starch-content and tuber yield were mapped in two F1 populations derived from crossing non-inbred di-haploid potato breeding lines. QTLs were identified and mapped, based on
both single-marker tests and interval analyses. A model specifically developed for interval QTL analysis in non-inbred plant
species was successfully applied for the first time to experimental data. Results of both methods of QTL analysis were similar
but not identical. QTLs for tuber starch-content and tuber yield were analysed in segregating populations K31 and LH in five
and two environments, respectively. Population K31 was fully genotyped whereas population LH was selectively genotyped according
to high and low tuber-starch content. Eighteen putative QTLs for tuber starch-content were identified on all 12 potato linkage
groups and eight putative QTLs for tuber yield were identified on eight linkage groups. Twenty of twenty six putative QTLs
were reproducibly detected in at least two environments and/or mapping populations. Few major QTLs for tuber starch-content
were highly stable across environments but were detected in only one of the two mapping populations analysed. Most QTLs for
tuber yield were linked with QTLs for tuber starch-content suggesting that the effects on both traits are controlled by the
same genetic factors. The results are discussed with respect to marker-assisted selection in potato.

Linkage analysis, Kruskal–Wallis analysis, interval mapping and graphical genotyping were performed on a potato diploid backcross family comprising 120 clones segregating for resistance to late blight. A hybrid between the Solanum tuberosum dihaploid clone PDH247 and the long-day-adapted S. phureja clone DB226(70) had been crossed to DB226(70) to produce the backcross family. Eighteen AFLP primer combinations provided 186 and 123 informative maternal and paternal markers respectively, with 63 markers in common to both parents. Eleven microsatellite (SSR) markers proved useful for identifying chromosomes. Linkage maps of both backcross parents were constructed. The results of a Kruskal–Wallis analysis, interval mapping and graphical genotyping were all consistent with a QTL or QTLs for blight resistance between two AFLP markers 30 cM apart on chromosome 4, which was identified by a microsatellite marker. The simplest explanation of the results is a single QTL with an allele from the dihaploid parent conferring resistance to race 1, 4 of P. infestans in the foliage in the glasshouse and to race 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7 in the foliage in the field and in tubers from glasshouse raised plants. The QTL was of large effect, and explained 78 and 51% of the variation in phenotypic scores for foliage blight in the glasshouse and field respectively, as well as 27% of the variation in tuber blight. Graphical genotyping and the differences in blight scores between the parental clones showed that all of the foliage blight resistance is accounted for by chromosome 4, whereas undetected QTLs for tuber resistance probably exist on other chromosomes. Graphical genotyping also explained the lack of precision in mapping the QTL(s) in terms of lack of appropriate recombinant chromosomes. 相似文献

Late blight caused by the oomycete Phytophthora infestans is the most important fungal disease in potato cultivation worldwide. Resistance to late blight is controlled by a few major genes (R genes) which can be easily overcome by new races of P. infestans and/or by an unknown number of genes expressing a quantitative type of resistance which may be more durable. Quantitative resistance of foliage to late blight was evaluated in five F1 hybrid families originating from crosses among seven different diploid potato clones. Tuber resistance was evaluated in four of the families. Two of the families were scored for both foliage maturity and vigour. The five families were genotyped with DNA-based markers and tested for linkage with the traits analysed. QTL (quantitative trait locus) analysis identified at least twelve segments on ten chromosomes of potato having genes that affect reproducibly foliage resistance. Two of those segments also have major R genes for resistance to late blight. The segments are tagged by 21 markers that can be analyzed based on PCR (polymerase chain reaction) with specific oligonucleotide primers. One QTL was detected for tuber resistance and one for foliage vigour. Two QTLs were mapped for foliage maturity. Major QTL effects on foliage and tuber resistance to late blight and on foliage maturity and vigour were all linked with marker GP179 on linkage group V of potato. Plants having alleles at this QTL, which increased foliage resistance, exhibited decreased tuber resistance, later maturity and more vigour. 相似文献

Quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis for tuber dormancy was performed in a diploid potato population (TRP133) consisting of 110 individuals. The female parent was a hybrid between haploid S. tuberosum (2x) and S. chacoense, while the male parent was a S. phureja clone. The population was characterized for ten isozyme loci, 44 restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) and 63 random amplified polymorphic DNAs (RAPDs). Eighty-seven of these loci segregating from the female parent were utilized to develop a linkage map that comprised 10 of the 12 chromosomes in the genome. Dormancy, as measured by days-to-sprouting after harvest, ranged from 10 to 90 days, with a mean of 19 days. QTLs were mapped by conducting one-way analyses of variance for each marker locus by dormancy combination. Twenty-two markers had a significant association with dormancy, identifying six putative QTLs localized on each of chromosomes 2, 3, 4, 5, 7 and 8. The QTL with the strongest effect on dormancy was detected on chromosome 7. A multilocus model was developed using the locus with highest R2 value in each QTL. This model explained 57.5% of the phenotypic variation for dormancy. Seven percent of possible epistatic interactions among significant markers were significant when tested through two-way analyses of variance. When these were included in the main-effects model, it explained 72.1% of the phenotypic variation for dormancy. QTL analysis in potato, the methodology to transfer traits and interactions into the 4x level, and QTLs of value for marker-assisted selection, are discussed. 相似文献

The identification of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) affecting agronomically important traits enable to understand their underlying
genetic mechanisms and genetic basis of their complex interactions. The aim of the present study was to detect QTLs for 12
agronomic traits related to staygreen, plant early development, grain yield and its components, and some growth characters
by analyzing replicated phenotypic datasets from three crop seasons, using the population of 168 F7 RILs of the cross 296B × IS18551. In addition, we report mapping of a subset of genic-microsatellite markers. A linkage map
was constructed with 152 marker loci comprising 149 microsatellites (100 genomic- and 49 genic-microsatellites) and three
morphological markers. QTL analysis was performed by using MQM approach. Forty-nine QTLs were detected, across environments
or in individual environments, with 1–9 QTLs for each trait. Individual QTL accounted for 5.2–50.4% of phenotypic variance.
Several genomic regions affected multiple traits, suggesting the phenomenon of pleiotropy or tight linkage. Stable QTLs were
identified for studied traits across different environments, and genetic backgrounds by comparing the QTLs in the study with
previously reported QTLs in sorghum. Of the 49 mapped genic-markers, 18 were detected associating either closely or exactly
as the QTL positions of agronomic traits. EST marker Dsenhsbm19, coding for a key regulator (EIL-1) of ethylene biosynthesis,
was identified co-located with the QTLs for plant early development and staygreen trait, a probable candidate gene for these
traits. Similarly, such exact co-locations between EST markers and QTLs were observed in four other instances. Collectively,
the QTLs/markers identified in the study are likely candidates for improving the sorghum performance through MAS and map-based
gene isolations. 相似文献

A major QTL located on chromosome V associates with in vitro tuberization in a tetraploid potato population 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The cultivated potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is an autotetraploid species. The complexity of tetrasomic inheritance and the lack of pure lines increase the difficulty of genetic analysis of the inherited characteristics. Tuberization is the determinant step for economic yield of potato. To understand the complex genetic basis of tuberization of the cultivated potato, we developed linkage maps for a tetraploid population (F1) of 237 genotypes and mapped QTLs for the percent of in vitro tuberized plantlets (% IVT). The paternal map for E108 (well tuberized) covered 948 cM and included 12 linkage groups, all of which contained all four homologous chromosomes. The maternal map for E20 (nontuberized) covered 1,286 cM and included 14 linkage groups, 12 of which contained all four homologous chromosomes. All 12 chromosomes of potato were tagged using the SSR markers. A major QTL (MT05) with additive effect was detected on chromosome V of E108 which explained 16.23 % of the variation for % IVT, and two minor QTLs (mt05 and mt09) displaying simplex dominant effects were located on chromosome V and chromosome IX of E20 which explained 5.33 and 4.59 % of the variation for % IVT, respectively. Based on the additive model of MT05, the segregation ratio of the gametic genotypes (Q?: qq = 5:1) matched the ratio of the tuberized genotypes to the nontuberized genotypes in the population suggesting that the segregation of in vitro tuberization in this population is controlled by a major-effect gene or genes. The mapping results of three important candidate genes indicated that the QTL causal genes detected in our study are new. In this study, we developed the almost complete linkage maps of a tetraploid population, identified a major QTL on chromosome V affecting in vitro tuberization, suggested a major-effect gene with minor modifiers model controlling this trait and found that the QTLs identified here correspond to new tuberization genes. Our work provides new and useful information about the genetic basis for tuberization of this autotetraploid crop. 相似文献

Golden shell color and mineral content are important economic traits of Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas). In this study, we mapped a series of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) that control zinc (Zn) and magnesium (Mg) content, shell color and growth performance to two sex-averaged linkage maps from the FAM-A and FAM-B families. In total, ten QTLs were identified in seven linkage groups (LGs) in the FAM-B family, and seven QTLs were identified in four linkage groups in the FAM-A family. Two QTLs affecting the trait of golden shell color were identified in LG8 of the FAM-A and LG10 of the FAM-B families, which could explain 20.2 and 10.5% of the phenotypic variations, respectively. Two QTLs for Zn content were identified that could contribute to 17.9 and 34.44% of the phenotypic variations in FAM-A. Six QTLs for Zn and Mg contents were identified in four LGs (LG1, LG2, LG5, and LG9) in FAM-B, which explained 13.5–26.7% of the phenotypic variations. In addition, seven QTLs related to oyster growth were recognized in both FAM-A and FAM-B families accounting for 14.6–36.7% of the phenotypic variations. All of the DNA markers in QTL regions were blasted and 14 genes associated with above traits were identified. The mRNA expression of these genes was determined by quantitative RT-PCR. These QTLs and candidate genes could be used as potential targets for marker-assisted selection in C. gigas breeding. 相似文献

Breeding a model plant that encompasses individual traits thought to enhance yield potential, known as ideotype breeding, has traditionally focused on phenotypic selection of plants with desirable morphological traits. Broadening this breeding method to the molecular level through the use of molecular markers would avoid the environmental interactions associated with phenotypic selection. A population of 110 F5 recombinant inbred lines (RILs), derived from the cross between WO3391 and 'OAC Speedvale', was used to develop a genetic linkage map consisting of 105 random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), simple sequence repeat (SSR), and sequence-tagged site (STS) markers. The map has a total length of 641 cM distributed across 8 linkage groups (LGs). Five of them were aligned on the core linkage map of bean. Twenty-one quantitative trait loci (QTLs) were identified over three environments for eight agronomic and architectural traits previously defined for a bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) ideotype. The QTLs were mapped to seven LGs with several regions containing QTLs for multiple traits. At least one QTL was located for each trait and a maximum of four were associated with lodging. Total explained phenotypic variance ranged from 10.6% for hypocotyl diameter to 45.4% for maturity. Some of the QTLs identified will be useful for early generation selection of tall, upright, high-yielding lines in a breeding program. 相似文献

An F(1) progeny derived from a cross between the apple (Malus x domestica) cultivars Telamon and Braeburn was used to identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) linked to the vitamin C (l-ascorbate [l-AA]) contents of fruit skin and flesh (cortex) tissues. We identified up to three highly significant QTLs for both the mean l-AA and the mean total l-AA contents of fruit flesh on both parental genetic linkage maps, confirming the quantitative nature of these traits. These QTLs account for up to a maximum of 60% of the total population variation observed in the progeny, and with a maximal individual contribution of 31% per QTL. QTLs common to both parents were identified on linkage groups (LGs) 6, 10, and 11 of the Malus reference map, while each parent also had additional unique QTLs on other LGs. Interestingly, one strong QTL on LG-17 of the Telamon linkage map colocalized with a highly significant QTL associated with flesh browning, and a minor QTL for dehydroascorbate content, supporting earlier work that links fruit l-AA contents with the susceptibility of hardfruit to postharvest browning. We also found significant minor QTLs for skin l-AA and total l-AA (l-AA + dehydroascorbate) contents in Telamon. Currently, little is known about the genetic determinants underlying tissue l-AA homeostasis, but the presence of major, highly significant QTL in both these apple genotypes under field conditions suggests the existence of common control mechanisms, allelic heterozygosity, and helps outline strategies and the potential for the molecular breeding of these traits. 相似文献

Chickpea is one of the most important leguminous cool season food crops, cultivated prevalently in South Asia and Middle East.
The main objective of this study was to identify quantitative trait loci (QTLs) associated with seven agronomic and yield
traits in two recombinant inbred line populations of chickpea derived from the crosses JG62 × Vijay (JV population) and Vijay × ICC4958
(VI population) from at least three environments. Single locus QTL analysis involved composite interval mapping (CIM) for
individual traits and multiple-trait composite interval mapping (MCIM) for correlated traits to detect pleiotropic QTLs. Two-locus
analysis was conducted to identify the main effect QTLs (M-QTLs), epistatic QTLs (E-QTLs) and QTL × environment interactions.
Through CIM analysis, a total of 106 significant QTLs (41 in JV and 65 in VI populations) were identified for the seven traits,
of which one QTL each for plant height and days to maturity was common in both the populations. Six pleiotropic QTLs that
were consistent over the environments were also identified. LG2 in JV and LG1a in VI contained at least one QTL for each trait.
Hence, concentrating on these LGs in molecular breeding programs is most likely to bring simultaneous improvement in these
traits. 相似文献

Phytophthora infestans causes an economically important disease of potato called late blight. The epidemic is controlled chemically but resistant
potatoes can become an environment-friendly and financially justified alternative solution. The use of diploid Solanum tuberosum derived from European tetraploid cultivars enabled the introgression of novel genes encoding foliage resistance and tuber
resistance from other species into the modern cultivated potato gene pool. This study evaluated the resistance of the obtained
hybrids, its quality, expression in leaflets and tubers and its relation to the length of vegetation period. We also identified
genetic loci involved in late blight resistance and the length of vegetation period. A family of 156 individuals segregating
for resistance to late blight was assessed by three laboratory methods: detached leaflet, tuber slice and whole tuber test,
repeatedly over 5 years. Length of vegetation period was estimated by a field test over 2 years. The phenotypic distributions
of all traits were close to normal. Using sequence-specific PCR markers of known chromosomal position on the potato genetic
map, six quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for resistance and length of vegetation period were identified. The most significant
and robust QTL were located on chromosomes III (explaining 17.3% of variance observed in whole tuber tests), IV (15.5% of
variance observed in slice tests), X (15.6% of variance observed in leaflet tests) and V (19.9% of variance observed in length
of vegetation period). Genetic characterization of these novel resistance sources can be valuable for potato breeders and
the knowledge that the most prominent QTLs for resistance and vegetation period length do not overlap in this material is
promising with respect to breeding early potatoes resistant to P. infestans.

The wild Bolivian potato, Solanum berthaultii Hawkes, has been used as a source of resistance to the Colorado potato beetle (CPB), Leptinotarsa decemlineata Say, one of the most significant pests of potato. In this study, two reciprocal backcross S. tuberosum x S. berthaultii potato progenies, BCB and BCT, were mapped with RFLP markers and screened for resistance to CPB consumption, oviposition and defoliation. The genotypic and phenotypic data were combined and analysed to locate quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for resistance to CPB. Three QTLs on three chromosomes in BCB, and two QTLs on two chromosomes in BCT influenced resistance. The QTLs were generally additive but one instance of epistasis was noted. Each QTL accounted for 4–12% of the phenotypic variation observed in resistance. In the more resistant BCB population, a three QTL model explained ca. 20% of the variation in CPB oviposition. When alleles at the three QTLs were homozygous S. berthaultii, oviposition was reduced ca. 60% compared to the heterozygotes. The QTLs for resistance to CPB were compared to those previously identified for the type A and B glandular trichomes, which have been implicated in resistance in the same progenies. Generally, the QTLs for resistance to CPB coincided with loci associated with the glandular trichomes confirming the importance of the glandular trichomes in mediating resistance. However, a relatively strong and consistent QTL for insect resistance in both BCB and BCT on chromosome 1 was observed that was not associated with any trichome traits, suggesting the trichomes may not account for all of the resistance observed in these progenies. 相似文献

Quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping is frequently used to understand the genetic architecture of quantitative traits. Herein, we performed a genome scan for QTL affecting the morphometric characters in eight full-sib families containing 522 individuals using different statistical methods (Sib-pair and half-sib model). A total of 194 QTLs were detected in 25 different regions on 10 linkage groups (LGs). Among them, 37 QTLs on five LGs (eight, 13, 24, 40 and 45) were significant (5% genome-wide level), while the remaining 40 (1% chromosome-wide level) and 117 (5% chromosome-wide level) indicated suggestive effect on those traits. Heritabilities for most morphometric traits were moderate to high, ranging from 0.21 to 0.66, with generally strong phenotypic and genetic correlations between the traits. A large number of QTLs for morphometric traits were co-located, consistent with their high correlations, and may reflect pleiotropic effect on the same genes. Biological pathways were mapped for possible candidate genes on QTL regions. One significantly enriched pathway was identified on LG45, which had a P-value of 0.04 and corresponded to the “regulation of actin cytoskeleton pathway”. The results are expected to be useful in marker-assisted selection (MAS) and provide valuable information for the study of gene pathway for morphometric and growth traits of the common carp. 相似文献

Drought tolerance is one of the most important but complex traits of crops. We looked for quantitative trait loci (QTLs) that affect drought tolerance in maize. Two maize inbreds and their advanced lines were evaluated for drought-related traits. A genetic linkage map developed using RFLP markers was used to identify QTLs associated with drought-related traits. Twenty-two QTLs were detected, with a minimum of one and a maximum of nine for drought-related traits. A single-QTL was detected for sugar concentration accounting for about 52.2% of the phenotypic variation on chromosome 6. A single-QTL was also identified for each of the traits root density, root dry weight, total biomass, relative water content, and leaf abscisic acid content, on chromosomes 1 and 7, contributing to 24, 0.2, 0.4, 7, and 19% of the phenotypic variance, respectively. Three QTLs were identified for grain yield on chromosomes 1, 5, and 9, explaining 75% of the observed phenotypic variability, whereas four QTLs were detected for osmotic potential on chromosomes 1, 3, and 9, together accounting for 50% of the phenotypic variance. Nine QTLs were detected for leaf surface area on chromosomes 3 and 9, with various degrees of phenotypic variance, ranging from 25.8 to 42.2%. Four major clusters of QTLs were identified on chromosomes 1, 3, 7, and 9. A QTL for yield on chromosome 1 was found co-locating with the QTLs for root traits, total biomass, and osmotic potential in a region of about 15 cM. A cluster of QTLs for leaf surface area were coincident with a QTL for osmotic potential on chromosome 3. The QTLs for leaf area also clustered on chromosome 9, whereas QTLs for leaf abscisic acid content and relative water content coincided on chromosome 7, 10 cM apart. Co-location of QTLs for different traits indicates potential pleiotropism or tight linkage, which may be useful for indirect selection in maize improvement for drought tolerance. 相似文献

Background and Aims
The Asian genus Vigna, to which four cultivated species (rice bean, azuki bean, mung bean and black gram) belong, is suitable for comparative genomics. The aims were to construct a genetic linkage map of rice bean, to identify the genomic regions associated with domestication in rice bean, and to compare these regions with those in azuki bean.Methods
A genetic linkage map was constructed by using simple sequence repeat and amplified fragment length polymorphism markers in the BC1F1 population derived from a cross between cultivated and wild rice bean. Using this map, 31 domestication-related traits were dissected into quantitative trait loci (QTLs). The genetic linkage map and QTLs of rice bean were compared with those of azuki bean.Key Results
A total of 326 markers converged into 11 linkage groups (LGs), corresponding to the haploid number of rice bean chromosomes. The domestication-related traits in rice bean associated with a few major QTLs distributed as clusters on LGs 2, 4 and 7. A high level of co-linearity in marker order between the rice bean and azuki bean linkage maps was observed. Major QTLs in rice bean were found on LG4, whereas major QTLs in azuki bean were found on LG9.Conclusions
This is the first report of a genetic linkage map and QTLs for domestication-related traits in rice bean. The inheritance of domestication-related traits was so simple that a few major QTLs explained the phenotypic variation between cultivated and wild rice bean. The high level of genomic synteny between rice bean and azuki bean facilitates QTL comparison between species. These results provide a genetic foundation for improvement of rice bean; interchange of major QTLs between rice bean and azuki bean might be useful for broadening the genetic variation of both species. 相似文献19.

Grain traits are important agronomic attributes with the market value as well as milling yield of bread wheat. In the present study, quantitative trait loci (QTL) regulating grain traits in wheat were identified. Data for grain area size (GAS), grain width (GWid), factor form density (FFD), grain length-width ratio (GLWR), thousand grain weight (TGW), grain perimeter length (GPL) and grain length (GL) were recorded on a recombinant inbred line derived from the cross of NW1014?×?HUW468 at Meerut and Varanasi locations. A linkage map of 55 simple sequence repeat markers for 8 wheat chromosomes was used for QTL analysis by Composite interval mapping. Eighteen QTLs distributed on 8 chromosomes were identified for seven grain traits. Of these, five QTLs for GLWR were found on chromosomes 1A, 6A, 2B, and 7B, three QTLs for GPL were located on chromosomes 4A, 5A and 7B and three QTLs for GAS were mapped on 5D and 7D. Two QTLs were identified on chromosomes 4A and 5A for GL and two QTLs for GWid were identified on chromosomes 7D and 6A. Similarly, two QTLs for FFD were found on chromosomes 1A and 5D. A solitary QTL for TGW was identified on chromosome 2B. For several traits, QTLs were also co-localized on chromosomes 2B, 4A, 5A, 6A, 5D, 7B and 7D. The QTLs detected in the present study may be validated for specific crosses and then used for marker-assisted selection to improve grain quality in bread wheat. 相似文献

The improvement of fruit quality is an important objective in citrus breeding. Using an F1 segregating population from a cross between citrus cultivars ‘Harehime’ (‘E647’—‘Kiyomi’ [Citrus unshiu Marcow. ‘Miyagawa Wase’ × Citrus sinensis (L.) Osbeck ‘Trovita’] × ‘Osceola’—a cultivar of clementine [Citrus clementina hort. ex Tanaka] × ‘Orland’ [Citrus paradisi Macfad. ‘Duncan’ × Citrus tangerina hort. ex Tanaka] × ‘Miyagawa Wase’) and ‘Yoshida’ ponkan (Citrus reticulata Blanco ‘Yoshida’), a SNP-based genetic linkage map was constructed and quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping of four fruit-quality traits (fruit weight, sugar content, peel puffing, and water rot) was performed. The constructed genetic linkage map of ‘Harehime’ consisted of 442 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on 9 linkage groups (LGs) and covered 635.8 cM of the genome, while that of ‘Yoshida’ ponkan consisted of 332 SNPs on 9 LGs and covered 892.9 cM of its genome. We identified four QTLs associated with fruit weight, one QTL associated with sugar content, three QTLs associated with peel puffing, and one QTL associated with water rot. For these QTL regions, we estimated the haplotypes of the crossed parents and verified the founding cultivars that these QTLs were originated from and their inheritance in descendant cultivars using pedigree information. QTLs identified in this study provide useful information for marker-assisted breeding of citrus in Japan. 相似文献
