Molecular characterisation of Trichoderma species using SRAP markers

Trichoderma are commonly used as bio control agents in various agro ecosystems. They are known to produce a variety of compounds that induce resistance responses in plants. Among different species of Trichoderma, T. harzianum, T. viride, T. koningii and T. hamatum are commercially used as bio control agents. In the present study, four commercially important species of Trichoderma isolated from coffee ecosystem were screened with sequence related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) markers. Among 48 SRAP primer pairs tested, 29 primers were polymorphic and generated 316 distinct scorable fragments. Out of 347 amplified fragments, 177 fragments were found polymorphic with an average of 6.10 fragments per primer combination. The average polymorphism information content (PIC) and resolving power (Rp) of the 29 polymorphic SRAP primer pair were 0.42 and 14.62, respectively. The UPGMA dendrogram clearly divided Trichoderma species into two broad clusters. The highest homology (83.0%) was observed between T. viride and T. Harzianum and the lowest homology (74.0%) was observed between T. Harzianum and T. konangii. Further, among 29 polymorphic SRAP markers screened, four primer pairs (ME1-EM3, ME1-EM20, ME1-EM22 and ME2-EM4) produced unique fragments specific to each species. These markers can be useful in easy and rapid identification of the species.

Genetic diversity assessment of a germplasm collection of Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge. based on morphology,ISSR and SRAP markers

Salvia miltiorrhiza is one of the most important traditional Chinese medicinal plants for its therapeutic effects. In the present study, morphological traits, ISSR (inter-simple sequence related) and SRAP (sequence-related amplified polymorphism) markers were used to analyze the genetic diversity of 59 S. miltiorrhiza phenotypes. Out of the 100 ISSR primers and 100 SRAP primer combinations screened, 13 ISSRs and 7 SRAPs were exploited to evaluate the level of polymorphism and discriminating capacity. The results showed that the 13 ISSRs generated 190 repeatable amplified bands, of which 177 (93.2%) were polymorphic, with an average of 13.6 polymorphic fragments per primer. The 7 SRAPs produced 286 repeatable amplified bands, of which 266 (93.4%) were polymorphic, with an average of 38.1 polymorphic fragments per primer. Cluster analysis readily separated different morphological accessions, wild and cultivated controls based on morphological traits, ISSR and SRAP markers. The study indicated that morphological traits, ISSR and SRAP markers were reliable and effective for assessing the genetic diversity of phenotypic S. miltiorrhiza accessions. The overall results suggested that the introduction of genetic variation from morphology-based germplasms enlarged the genetic base for the collection, conservation and further breeding program of S. miltiorrhiza germplasm.

Genetic diversity in bambara groundnut (Vigna subterranea (L.) Verdc) landraces revealed by AFLP markers.

Bambara groundnut (Vigna subterranea (L.) Verdc), an African indigenous legume, is popular in most parts of Africa. The present study was undertaken to establish genetic relationships among 16 cultivated bambara groundnut landraces using fluorescence-based amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) markers. Seven selective primer combinations generated 504 amplification products, ranging from 50 to 400 bp. Several landrace-specific products were identified that could be effectively used to produce landrace-specific markers for identification purposes. On average, each primer combination generated 72 amplified products that were detectable by an ABI Prism 310 DNA sequencer. The polymorphisms obtained ranged from 68.0 to 98.0%, with an average of 84.0%. The primer pairs M-ACA + P-GCC and M-ACA + P-GGA produced more polymorphic fragments than any other primer pairs and were better at differentiating landraces. The dendrogram generated by the UPGMA (unweighted pair-group method with arithmetic averaging) grouped 16 landraces into 3 clusters, mainly according to their place of collection or geographic origin. DipC1995 and Malawi5 were the most genetically related landraces. AFLP analysis provided sufficient polymorphism to determine the amount of genetic diversity and to establish genetic relationships in bambara groundnut landraces. The results will help in the formulation of marker-assisted breeding in bambara groundnut.     

Studies on Paeonia cultivars and hybrids identification based on SRAP analysis

Plants of Paeonia are valuable for their ornamental and medicinal values. Genetic relations and hybrids identification among different sections of Paeonia were studied using sequence related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) markers. A total of 29 cultivars including 2 intersectional hybrids, 13 sect. Moutan and 14 from sect. Paeonia were used. A total of 197 bands were produced using 24 primer combinations, among which 187 bands showed polymorphism. From the bands amplified, we can identify the peony cultivars using unique SRAP markers and specific primer combinations. Fourteen peony cultivars were distinguished among each other by using totally 35 SRAP markers, which were generated by 16 primer pairs. Two specific primer pairs of Me8/Em8 and Me8/Em1 can be used to identify cultivars from different sections. The mean genetic similarity coefficient (GS), the gene diversity (GD), and the Shannon's information index of peony cultivars were 0.45, 0.19 and 0.32, respectively. Both UPGMA (unweighted pair-group method of arithmetic average) dendrogram and PCA (principle component analysis) analysis showed clear genetic relationships among the 29 peony cultivars, and within section and its intersectional hybrids. The above results are valuable for estimating and analyzing genetic background of Paeonia, parent selection in crossing breeding programs, molecular marker assisted selection (MAS) breeding for further germplasm innovation programs.     

Genetic Diversity of Pleurotus pulmonarius Revealed by RAPD,ISSR, and SRAP Fingerprinting

Pleurotus pulmonarius is one of the most widely cultivated and popular edible fungi in the genus Pleurotus. Three molecular markers were used to analyze the genetic diversity of 15 Chinese P. pulmonarius cultivars. In total, 21 random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), 20 inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR), and 20 sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) primers or primer pairs were selected for generating data based on their clear banding profiles produced. With the use of these RAPD, ISSR, and SRAP primers or primer pairs, a total of 361 RAPD, 283 ISSR, and 131 SRAP fragments were detected, of which 287 (79.5 %) RAPD, 211 (74.6 %) ISSR, and 98 (74.8 %) SRAP fragments were polymorphic. Unweighted Pair-Group Method with Arithmetic Mean (UPGMA) trees of these three methods were structured similarly, grouping the 15 tested strains into four clades. Subsequently, visual DNA fingerprinting and cluster analysis were performed to evaluate the resolving power of the combined RAPD, ISSR, and SRAP markers in the differentiation among these strains. The results of this study demonstrated that each method above could efficiently differentiate P. pulmonarius cultivars and could thus be considered an efficient tool for surveying genetic diversity of P. pulmonarius.     

Analysis of genetic diversity among Chinese <Emphasis Type="Italic">Pleurotus citrinopileatus</Emphasis> Singer cultivars using two molecular marker systems (ISSRs and SRAPs) and morphological traits

To evaluate the genetic diversity of Pleurotus citrinopileatus Singer cultivars in China, 20 P. citrinopileatus strains were analyzed using morphological traits, inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) and sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) molecular markers. Eleven ISSR primers amplified a total of 116 DNA fragments of which 96 (82.91%) were polymorphic, whereas 8 SRAP primer pairs amplified 69 fragments of which 65 (93.47%) were polymorphic. Phylogenetic trees constructed on the basis of ISSR, SRAP, and combined ISSR/SRAP analyses using the Unweighted Pair-group Method with Arithmetic Averages method distributed the 20 strains into three or six major groups. The grouping exhibited great similarity and was generally consistent with their morphological characters and antagonism test, which indicated a high level of genetic diversity among P. citrinopileatus Singer and relationship between each other. Based on the genetic analysis, the primary mini-core strains were constructed with progressive sampling method of the smallest genetic distance. The mini-core germplasm collection included 4 strains (strain 2, 5, 7 and 11). Our findings will provide a scientific fundament for facilitating parent selection for broadening genetic base, accelerating the genetic breeding, identification of cultivated strains and the development of bioactive products from this commercially important medicinal mushroom.

Using morphological diagnosis and molecular markers to assess the clonal fidelity of micropropagated Echinacea purpurea regenerants

Both morphological characteristics and amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) markers were used to validate the genetic fidelity of 1 080 field-grown Echinacea purpurea plants regenerated from leaf explants of donor T5-9. Morphological diagnosis revealed that 1 067 out of 1 080 regenerants were normal, while 13 regenerants were aberrant. AFLP analysis was further performed to assess DNA variations among donor, 43 sampled normal regenerants and all 13 aberrant regenerants. Seven primer combinations generated 471 fragments among donor and normal regenerants, of which 9 fragments were polymorphic. The same primer pairs generated 484 fragments for aberrant regenerants, of which 417 fragments were polymorphic. UPGMA clustering indicated that 42 normal regenerants and donor fell into same cluster at similarity scale of > 0.99, while all 13 aberrant regenerants and one morphologically normal regenerant comprised the other clusters. AFLP analysis indicated that these 14 regenerants are off-types.     

Analysis of Genetic Diversity Among Chinese Auricularia auricula Cultivars Using Combined ISSR and SRAP Markers

DNA polymorphism among 34 Chinese Auricularia auricula cultivars was analyzed using inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) and sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) markers. Thirty ISSR primers amplified a total of 129 DNA fragments of which 125 (96.9%) were polymorphic, whereas 11 SRAP primer combinations amplified 154 fragments of which 148 (96.1%) were polymorphic. Both methods were highly effective in discriminating among the test strains. Phylogenetic trees constructed on the basis of ISSR, SRAP, and combined ISSR/SRAP analyses using the Unweighted Pair-group Method with Arithmetic Averages (UPGMA) method distributed the 34 strains into four or five major groups. Clustering analysis based on all the three data sets indicated a high level of genetic diversity among A. auricula, although the combined ISSR/SRAP data were more concordant with the main agronomic characters of strains and their geographical centers of cultivation. Our findings will facilitate future A. auricula breeding programs and the development of bioactive products from this commercially important medicinal mushroom.
