A reliable multiplexed microsatellite set for genotyping <Emphasis Type="Italic">Fragaria</Emphasis> and its use in a survey of 60 <Emphasis Type="Italic">F</Emphasis>. × <Emphasis Type="Italic">ananassa</Emphasis> cultivars

We have identified a reliable set of multiplexed microsatellite (SSR) markers for the genotyping of strawberry cultivars and their octoploid progenitors. Over 100 SSRs were screened in two F. × ananassa genotypes and from these, 32 that showed promise for genotyping were selected for further analysis. These SSRs were used to screen a set of 16 strawberry cultivars and a set of fingerprints were produced. Those SSRs that produced reliable, reproducible and easy to interpret fingerprints, that could also distinguish readily between the 16 strawberry cultivars screened, and which could be conveniently included in three multiplex reactions, were selected to form the genotyping set. The genotyping set, consisting of 10 previously-reported SSRs was used to fingerprint a total of 56 cultivated strawberry, and four octoploid Fragaria species accessions. The SSRs used could reliably distinguish between all 60 genotypes surveyed, including sibling cultivars derived from the same parental lines. The primers could be combined for multiplex PCR and represent a useful and convenient genotyping set for Fragaria that will permit fingerprinting data to be shared between laboratories.     

Sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP), a new marker system based on a simple PCR reaction: its application to mapping and gene tagging in Brassica

We developed a simple marker technique called sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) aimed for the amplification of open reading frames (ORFs). It is based on two-primer amplification. The primers are 17 or 18 nucleotides long and consist of the following elements. Core sequences, which are 13 to 14 bases long, where the first 10 or 11 bases starting at the 5′ end, are sequences of no specific constitution (”filler” sequences), followed by the sequence CCGG in the forward primer and AATT in the reverse primer. The core is followed by three selective nucleotides at the 3′ end. The filler sequences of the forward and reverse primers must be different from each other and can be 10 or 11 bases long. For the first five cycles the annealing temperature is set at 35°C. The following 35 cycles are run at 50°C. The amplified DNA fragments are separated by denaturing acrylamide gels and detected by autoradiography. We tested the marker technique in a series of recombinant inbred and doubled-haploid lines of Brassica oleracea L. After sequencing, approximately 45% of the gel-isolated bands matched known genes in the Genbank database. Twenty percent of the SRAP markers were co-dominant, which was demonstrated by sequencing. Construction of a linkage map revealed an even distribution of the SRAP markers in nine major linkage groups, not differing in this regard to AFLP markers. We successfully tagged the glucosinolate desaturation gene BoGLS-ALK with these markers. SRAPs were also easily amplified in other crops such as potato, rice, lettuce, Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa L.), rapeseed (Brassica napus L.), garlic, apple, citrus, and celery. We also amplified cDNA isolated from different tissues of Chinese cabbage, allowing the fingerprinting of these sequences. Received: 3 November 2000 / Accepted 24 November 2000     

Microsatellite analysis reveals a progressive widening of the genetic basis in the elite durum wheat germplasm

It has been argued that the level of genetic diversity in the modern durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. var. durum) elite germplasm may have declined due to the high selection pressure applied in breeding programs. In this study, 58 accessions covering a wide spectrum of genetic diversity of the cultivated durum wheat gene pool were characterized with 70 microsatellite loci (or simple sequence repeats, SSRs). On average, SSRs detected 5.6 different allelic variants per locus, with a mean diversity index (DI) equal to 0.56, thus revealing a diversity content comparable to those previously observed with SSRs in other small-grain cereal gene pools. The mean genetic similarity value was equal to 0.44. A highly diagnostic SSR set has been identified. A high variation in allele size was detected among SSR loci, suggesting a different suitability of these loci for estimating genetic diversity. The B genome was characterized by an overall polymorphism significantly higher than that of the A genome. Genetic diversity is organised in well-distinct sub-groups identified by the corresponding foundation-genotypes. A large portion (92.7%) of the molecular variation detected within the group of 45 modern cvs was accounted for by SSR alleles tracing back to ten foundation-genotypes; among those, the most recent CIMMYT-derived founders were genetically distant from the old Mediterranean ones. On the other hand, rare alleles were abundant, suggesting that a large number of genetic introgressions contributed to the foundation of the well-diversified germplasm herein considered. The profiles of recently released varieties indicate that the level of genetic diversity present in the modern durum wheat germplasm has actually increased over time.Communicated by F. Salamini     

Mating systems in representatives of Parmeliaceae, Ramalinaceae and Physciaceae (Lecanoromycetes, lichen-forming ascomycetes)

The progeny of meiosis of eight Parmeliaceae, two Ramalinaceae and seven Physciaceae were subjected to fingerprint analysis using RAPD-PCR applied to single spore isolates. The sample set included common and widespread rarely fertile species (Parmelia sulcata, Pseudevernia furfuracea, Physcia tenella), local to common, infrequently fertile species (Melanelixia glabra, Parmelina tiliacea, Xanthoparmelia conspersa, X. stenophylla, Anaptychia runcinata, Diploicia canescen, Physconia distorta), local to rare, infrequently or regularly fertile species with declining distributions (Parmelina carporrhizans, P. quercina, Ramalina fastigiata, R. fraxinea, Anaptychia ciliaris), and local to common, regularly fertile species (Physcia aipolia, P. stellaris). All species turned out to be heterothallic, polymorphisms among RAPD markers ranging from 10–87 %. The significance of these findings for population genetics and conservation biology, and potential reasons for infrequent ascoma formation in some of the species are discussed.     

Evaluation of Daphne genkwa diterpenes: fingerprint and quantitative analysis by high performance liquid chromatography

Daphne genkwa contains a novel class of anticancer diterpene esters that inhibit DNA topoisomerase I. Fingerprint and quantitative analysis by HPLC were performed in order to characterise and evaluate D. genkwa. A standard fingerprint of Daphne diterpene esters from the root extract was first established by HPLC-UV, and the major peaks in the fingerprint profile were preliminarily determined using HPLC-MS. The principal Daphne diterpene esters, yuanhuacine (1), yuanhuadine (2), yuanhuajine (3) and yuanhuagine (4), were isolated and identified using a combination of UV, IR, MS, 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR spectral data. Quantitative analysis indicated that 1 was the principal component in the root, and that 2 was the major component in the buds. The average extraction rates of 1 and 2 were 0.0151 and 0.0033% (n=10) from the root, respectively, and 0.0020 and 0.0078% (n=3) from the buds, respectively.
