Molecular mapping of a rice gene conditioning thermosensitive genic male sterility using AFLP, RFLP and SSR techniques

The discovery and application of the thermosensitive genic male sterility (TGMS) system has great potential for revolutionizing hybrid seed production technology in rice. Use of the TGMS system in two-line breeding is simple, inexpensive, efficient, and eliminates the limitations associated with the cytoplasmic-genetic male sterility (CMS) system. An F₂ population developed from a cross between a TGMS indica mutant, TGMS–VN1, and a fertile indica line, CH1, was used to identify molecular markers linked to the TGMS gene and to subsequently determine its chromosomal location on the linkage map of rice. Bulk segregant analysis was performed using the AFLP technique. From the survey of 200 AFLP primer combinations, four AFLP markers (E2/M5–600, E3/M16–400, E5/M12–600, and E5/M12–200) linked to the TGMS gene were identified. All the markers were linked to the gene in the coupling phase. All except E2/M5–200 were found to be low-copy sequences. However, the marker E5/M12–600 showed polymorphism in RFLP analysis and was closely linked to the TGMS gene at a distance of 3.3 cM. This marker was subsequently mapped on chromosome 2 using doubled-haploid mapping populations derived from the crosses IR64×Azucena and CT9993×IR62666, available at IRRI, Philippines, and Texas Tech University, respectively. Linkage of microsatellite marker RM27 with the TGMS gene further confirmed its location on chromosome 2. The closest marker, E5/M12–600, was sequenced so that a PCR marker can be developed for the marker-assisted transfer of this gene to different genetic backgrounds. The new TGMS gene is tentatively designated as tms4(t). Received: 13 July 1999 / Accepted: 27 July 1999

Molecular mapping of the reverse thermo-sensitive genic male-sterile gene (rtms1) in rice

TGMS (thermo-sensitive genic male-sterile) rice is widely used in hybrid rice production. Because of a specific temperature requirement, it can be used only in a narrow rice-growing zone in Asia. A newly discovered reverse thermo-sensitive genic male-sterile line, J207S, has an opposite phynotype compared to the normal TGMS lines. J207S is completely sterile when the temperature is lower than 31°C. Thus, it can be widely used in a larger area. Genetic analysis indicated that the sterility of J207S was controlled by a single recessive gene which was first named as rtms1. An F₂ population from the cross between J207S and E921 was developed and used for molecular mapping of the rtms1 gene. The AFLP (amplified fragment length polymorphism) technique, combined with BSA (bulked segregant analysis), was used to screen markers linked to the target gene, and eight polymorphic AFLP loci were identified. Co-segregating analysis using the F₂ population showed that two of them, Rev1 and Rev7, were closely linked to the target gene with a recombinant rate of 3.8% and 7.7%, respectively. Both Rev1 and Rev7 were found to be single-copy sequences through Southern analysis. Rev1 was subsequently mapped on chromosome 10 with a doubled-haploid mapping populations derived from the cross CT9993 × IR62266 available at Texas Tech University. RM222 and RG257 were linked to Rev1 at a distance of 11.8 cM and 4.6 cM, respectively. Additional SSR markers from the rice map of Cornell University, RFLP markers from the map of RGP in Japan and the map of Texas Tech University were selected from the region surrounding Rev1 on chromosome 10 to conduct the fine-mapping of the rtms1 gene. Presently, rtms1 was mapped between RM239 and RG257 with genetic distance of 3.6 cM and 4.0 cM, respectively. The most-closely linked AFLP marker, Rev1, 4.2 cM from the rtms1 gene, was sequenced and converted into a SCAR (sequence characterized amplified region) marker which could facilitate marker-assisted selection of the rtms1 gene.

Genetic characterization and fine mapping of a novel thermo-sensitive genic male-sterile gene tms6 in rice (Oryza sativa L.)

The application of genetic male sterility in hybrid rice production has great potential to revolutionize hybrid seed production methodology. The two-line breeding system by using thermo-sensitive genic male sterility (TGMS) has been discovered and successfully developed as a breeding strategy in rice. One TGMS gene was investigated by a spontaneous rice mutant line, Sokcho-MS, originated from a Korean japonica variety. It was shown that Sokcho-MS is completely sterile at a temperature higher than 27°C and/or lower than 25°C during the development of spikelets, but fertile at the temperature ranging from 25 to 27°C regardless of the levels of day-length. Genetic analysis and molecular mapping based on SSR, STS and EST markers revealed that a single recessive gene locus involved the control of genic male sterility in Sokcho-MS. By using an F₂ mapping population derived from a cross between Sokcho-MS and a fertile indica variety Neda, the new TGMS gene, designated as tms6, was mapped primarily to the long arm of chromosome 5 of Oryza sativa at the interval between markers E60663 (2.0 cM) and RM440 (5.8 cM). Subsequently, tms6 was fine mapped to the interval between markers RM3351 (0.1 cM) and E60663 (1.9 cM). As tms6 appeared to be independent of other mapped TGMS genes in rice, the genetic basis of Sokcho-MS was further discussed.     

Molecular mapping of the rf1 gene for pollen fertility restoration in sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.)

We report the molecular mapping of a gene for pollen fertility in A1 (milo) type cytoplasm of sorghum using AFLP and SSR marker analysis. DNA from an F₂ population comprised of 84 individuals was screened with AFLP genetic markers to detect polymorphic DNAs linked to fertility restoration. Fifteen AFLP markers were linked to fertility restoration from the initial screening with 49 unique AFLP primer combinations (+3/+3 selective bases). As many of these AFLP markers had been previously mapped to a high-density genetic map of sorghum, the target gene (rf1) could be mapped to linkage group H. Confirmation of the map location of rf1 was obtained by demonstrating that additional linkage group-H markers (SSR, STS, AFLP) were linked to fertility restoration. The closest marker, AFLP Xtxa2582, mapped within 2.4 cM of the target loci while two SSRs, Xtxp18 and Xtxp250, flanked the rf1 locus at 12 cM and 10.8 cM, respectively. The availability of molecular markers will facilitate the selection of pollen fertility restoration in sorghum inbred-line development and provide the foundation for map-based gene isolation.

Generation and mapping of SCAR and CAPS markers linked to the seed coat color gene in Brassica napus using a genome-walking technique.

The yellow seed coat trait in No. 2127-17, a resynthesized purely yellow Brassica napus line, is controlled by a single partially dominant gene, Y. A double-haploid population derived from the F1 of No. 2127-17 x 'ZY821' was used to map the seed coat color phenotype. A combination of AFLP analysis and bulked segregant analysis identified 18 AFLP markers linked to the seed coat color trait. The 18 AFLP markers were mapped to a chromosomal region of 37.0 cM with an average of 2.0 cM between adjacent markers. Two markers, AFLP-K and AFLP-H, bracketed the Y locus in an interval of 1.0 cM, such that each was 0.5 cM away from the Y locus. Two other markers, AFLP-A and AFLP-B, co-segregated with the seed color gene. For ease of use in breeding programs, these 4 most tightly linked AFLP markers were converted into reliable PCR-based markers. SCAR-K, which was derived from AFLP-K, was assigned to linkage group 9 (N9) of a B. napus reference map consisting of 150 commonly used SSR (simple sequence repeat) markers. Furthermore, 2 SSR markers (Na14-E08 and Na10-B07) linked to SCAR-K on the reference map were reversely mapped to the linkage map constructed in this study, and also showed linkage to the Y locus. These linked markers would be useful for the transfer of the dominant allele Y from No. 2127-17 to elite cultivars using a marker-assisted selection strategy and would accelerate the cloning of the seed coat color gene.

Molecular tagging and genetic mapping of the disease resistance gene<Emphasis Type="Italic"> RppQ</Emphasis> to southern corn rust

Southern corn rust (SCR), Puccinia polysora Underw, is a destructive disease in maize (Zea mays L.). Inbred line Qi319 is highly resistant to SCR. Results from the inoculation test and genetic analysis of SCR in five F₂ populations and five BC₁F₁ populations derived from resistant parent Qi319 clearly indicate that the resistance to SCR in Qi319 is controlled by a single dominant resistant gene, which was named RppQ. Simple sequence repeat (SSR) analysis was carried out in an F₂ population derived from the cross Qi319×340. Twenty SSR primer pairs evenly distributed on chromosome10 were screened at first. Out of them, two primer pairs, phi118 and phi 041, showed linkage with SCR resistance. Based on this result, eight new SSR primer pairs surrounding the region of primers phi118 and phi 041 were selected and further tested regarding their linkage relation with RppQ. Results indicated that SSR markers umc1,318 and umc 2,018 were linked to RppQ with a genetic distance of 4.76 and 14.59 cM, respectively. On the other side of RppQ, beyond SSR markers phi 041 and phi118, another SSR marker umc1,293 was linked to RppQ with a genetic distance of 3.78 cM. Because the five linkage SSR markers (phi118, phi 041, umc1,318, umc 2,018 and umc1,293) are all located on chromosome 10, the RppQ gene should also be located on chromosome 10. In order to fine map the RppQ gene, AFLP (amplified fragment length polymorphism) analysis was carried out. A total 54 AFLP primer combinations were analyzed; one AFLP marker, AF1, from the amplification products of primer combination E-AGC/M-CAA, showed linkage with the RppQ gene in a genetic distance of 3.34 cM. Finally the RppQ gene was mapped on the short arm of chromosome 10 between SSR markers phi 041 and AFLP marker AF1 with a genetic distance of 2.45 and 3.34 cM respectively.Communicated by H. F.

Genetic characterization and mapping of major gene resistance to potato leafroll virus in <Emphasis Type="Italic">Solanum</Emphasis><Emphasis Type="Italic">tuberosum</Emphasis> ssp. <Emphasis Type="Italic">andigena</Emphasis>

Major gene inheritance of resistance to Potato leafroll virus (PLRV) was demonstrated in a parthenogenic population derived from the highly resistant tetraploid andigena landrace, LOP-868. This major gene or chromosome region seems to control a single mechanism for resistance to infection and virus accumulation in this source. About 149 dihaploid lines segregated in a ratio of 107 resistant to 32 susceptible, fitting the expected ratio for inheritance of a duplex gene under random chromatid segregation. A tetraploid AFLP map was constructed using as reference the ultra high density (UHD) map. All AFLP markers associated with PLRV resistance mapped to the same linkage group. Map position was confirmed by analysis of previously-mapped SSR markers. Rl _adg is located on the upper arm of chromosome V, at 1 cM from its most closely linked AFLP marker, E35M48.192. This marker will be used to develop allele-specific primers or a pair of flanking PCR-based markers for their use in marker assisted selection.     

A first linkage map of olive (Olea europaea L.) cultivars using RAPD,AFLP, RFLP and SSR markers

The first linkage map of the olive (Olea europaea L.) genome has been constructed using random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and amplified fragment length polymorphisms (AFLP) as dominant markers and a few restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLP) and simple-sequence repeats (SSR) as codominant markers. Ninety-five individuals of a cross progeny derived from two highly heterozygous olive cultivars, Leccino and Dolce Agogia, were used by applying the pseudo test-cross strategy. From 61 RAPD primers 279 markers were obtained - 158 were scored for Leccino and 121 for Dolce Agogia. Twenty-one AFLP primer combinations gave 304 useful markers - 160 heterozygous in Leccino and 144 heterozygous in Dolce Agogia. In the Leccino map 249 markers (110 RAPD, 127 AFLP, 8 RFLP and 3 SSR) were linked. This resulted in 22 major linkage groups and 17 minor groups with fewer than four markers. In the Dolce Agogia map, 236 markers (93 RAPD, 133 AFLP, 6 RFLP and 4 SSR) were linked; 27 major linkage groups and three minor groups were obtained. Codominant RFLPs and SSRs, as well as few RAPDs in heteroduplex configuration, were used to establish homologies between linkage groups of both parents. The total distance covered was 2,765 cM and 2,445 cM in the Leccino and Dolce Agogia maps, respectively. The mean map distance between adjacent markers was 13.2 cM in Leccino and 11.9 cM in Dolce Agogia, respectively. Both AFLP and RAPD markers were homogeneously distributed in all of the linkage groups reported. The stearoyl-ACP desaturase gene was mapped on linkage group 4 of cv. Leccino.     

Molecular polymorphism and linkage analysis in sweet passion fruit,an outcrossing species

One of the current challenges of tropical fruit crop improvement is to incorporate molecular marker‐based approaches into conventional breeding programmes. This study was designed to build an integrated genetic map of the sweet passion fruit (Passiflora alata), a diploid (2n = 18) outcrossing species which is greatly appreciated for in natura consumption, and reported to inspire cosmetic and pharmaceutical companies to create plant‐derived compounds. With this in mind, a full‐sib family of 180 individuals was genotyped using different molecular marker types, such as amplified fragment length polymorphisms (AFLP), microsatellite‐AFLP (M‐AFLP), simple sequence repeats (SSR), resistance gene analogues (RGA) and target region amplification polymorphism (TRAP). On average, the rate of polymorphism between the parental genotypes was 20.3%. We also searched for single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in some AFLP bands and in seven gene fragments, and found one SNP every 87 bp. All SNPs were biallelic and occurred most frequently in putative gene fragments (81.5%) rather than in AFLP bands (60.0%) analyzed. Excellent gel profiles were obtained allowing the recognition of all types of segregation expected for a progeny of an outcrossing species. Multipoint linkage analysis was performed using OneMap software, with logarithm of the odds (LOD) score ≥ 5.6 and recombination fraction <0.5. The resulting integrated map consists of 549 markers, 2.0% of which fit a segregation ratio of 1:1:1:1, 1.3% a ratio of 1:2:1, 27.3% a ratio of 3:1 and 69.4% a ratio of 1:1. The map spanned a total of 2073.0 cM, with an average distance between adjacent markers of 3.8 cM. This is the first linkage study on sweet passion fruit and should prove useful for quantitative trait loci mapping.     

AFLP and PCR-based markers linked to Rf3, a fertility restorer gene for S cytoplasmic male sterility in maize

The Rf3 gene restores the pollen fertility disturbed by S male sterile cytoplasm. In order to develop molecular markers tightly linked to Rf3, we used amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) technique with near isogenic lines (NILs) and bulk segregant analysis (BSA). A BC₁F₁ population from a pair of NILs with different Rf3 locus was constructed and 528 primer combinations was screened. A linkage map was constructed around the Rf3 locus, which was mapped on the distal region of chromosome 2 long arm with the help of SSR marker UMC2184. The closest marker E7P6 was 0.9 cM away from Rf3. Marker E3P1, 2.4 cM from Rf3, and E12M7, 1.8 cM from Rf3, were converted into a codominant CAPS and a dominant SCAR marker, and designated as CAPSE3P1 and SCARE12M7, respectively. These markers are useful for marker-assisted selection and map-based cloning of the Rf3 gene.

Genetic analysis of temperature-sensitive male sterilty in rice

The present study of genetic analysis is an attempt to precisely characterize diverse temperature-sensitive genic male-sterile (TGMS) lines so as to explore the possibilities of utilizing the most promising in large-scale hybrid seed production. Genetical studies revealed that the TGMS segregants derived from crosses involving TGMS lines ID24 and SA2 expressed differential fertility levels at low-temperature conditions. A majority of these progenies expressed transgressive segregation towards either sterility of fertility, causing instability of sterility and low reversibilty of fertility which may be due to large numbers of single-locus QTLs and their epistatic interactions. We identified two putative genes imparting temperature-sensitive male sterility after observing crosses involving diverse TGMS sources. To identify suitable molecular markers closely linked to the trait we used RAPD, AFLP and microsatellites which generated polymorphism through bulked segregant analysis. AFLP analysis using a smaller genome kit resulted in enormous polymorphism, out of which the combination EAA/MCAG amplified a 330-bp fragment, which closely segregated with the gene at a distance of 5.3 cM. This fragment was eluted for cloning and from the sequence a STS primer (TS200) was developed which produced a dominant polymorphism specific to TGMS. The microsatellite RM257, located earlier on chromosome 9, was linked with the TGMS trait in SA2 at a distance of 6.2 cM. RM257 produced a codominant polymorphism with 145-bp (sterile) and 132-bp (fertile) products. Both individually and collectively, the markers TS200 and RM257 located on either side of the TGMS locus are very useful for marker-assisted selection.

SSR and SCAR mapping of a multiple-allele male-sterile gene in Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa L.)

The genic multiple-allele inherited male-sterile gene Ms in Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa L.) was identified as a spontaneous mutation. Applying this gene to hybrid seed production, several B. rapa cultivars have been successfully bred in China. A BC₁ population (244 plants) was constructed for mapping the Ms gene. Screening 268 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers which cover the entire genome of Chinese cabbage was performed with bulked segregant analysis (BSA). On the basis of linkage analysis, the Ms gene was located on linkage group R07. In addition, through the amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) and the sequence-characterized amplified region (SCAR) techniques combining BSA, two SCAR markers which were converted from corresponding AFLP markers flanked the Ms gene. Finally, a genetic map of the Ms gene was constructed covering a total interval of 9.0 cM. Two SCAR markers, syau_scr01 and syau_scr04, flanked the Ms gene at distances of 0.8 and 2.5 cM, respectively. All the SSR markers (cnu_m273, cnu_m030, cnu_m295, and syau_m13) were mapped on the same side of the gene as syau_scr04, the nearest one of which, syau_m13, was mapped at a distance of 3.3 cM. These SSR and SCAR markers may be useful in marker-assisted selection and map-based cloning.
