Discovery of SNPs in soybean genotypes frequently used as the parents of mapping populations in the United States and Korea

Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) including insertion/deletions (indels) serve as useful and informative genetic markers. The availability of high-throughput and inexpensive SNP typing systems has increased interest in the development of SNP markers. After fragments of genes were amplified with primers derived from 110 soybean GenBank ESTs, sequencing data of PCR products from 15 soybean genotypes from Korea and the United States were analyzed by SeqScape software to find SNPs. Among 35 gene fragments with at least one SNP among the 15 genotypes, SNPs occurred at a frequency of 1 per 2,038 bp in 16,302 bp of coding sequence and 1 per 191 bp in 16,960 bp of noncoding regions. This corresponds to a nucleotide diversity (theta) of 0.00017 and 0.00186, respectively. Of the 97 SNPs discovered, 78 or 80.4% were present in the six North American soybean mapping parents. The addition of "Hwaeomputkong," which originated from Japan, increased the number to 92, or 94.8% of the total number of SNPs present among the 15 genotypes. Thus, Hwaeomputkong and the six North American mapping parents provide a diverse set of soybean genotypes that can be successfully used for SNP discovery in coding DNA and closely associated introns and untranslated regions.     

Association of single nucleotide polymorphisms with form traits in three New Zealand populations of radiata pine in the presence of genotype by environment interactions

Associations of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) with the form traits, branch cluster frequency and stem straightness, were studied in three radiata pine (Pinus radiata D. Don) breeding populations. For branch cluster frequency, high genotype by environment (G×E) interactions were found between two sites of the POP1 trial series (Tarawera and Glenledi) and between two sites of the POP2 trial series (Tarawera and Woodhill). For stem straightness, high G×E interactions were found between two sites (Tarawera and Woodhill) in both the POP2 and POP3 trial series. Thirty-two and 26 SNPs were associated with branch cluster frequency and stem straightness respectively, across a number of sites and trial series in a genetic model assuming heterogeneous additive genetic variances across sites. These SNPs had significant associations with branch cluster frequency or stem straightness either in one site only, across sites within a trial series or across different trial series. Seven SNPs had significant associations with branch cluster frequency and seven SNPs with stem straightness across two of three trial series. One SNP had significant association with stem straightness across all three trial series. Strong G×E interactions resulted in fewer significant SNPs in common across the sites among which there were large effect differences. The percentage of genetic variance explained by SNPs showing significant associations ranged from 0.23 to 8.76 % for branch cluster frequency and from 0.37 to 12.75 % for stem straightness. This study showed that SNP effects for a trait change across environments if G×E interactions exist for that trait.

Validation of Pooled Whole-Genome Re-Sequencing in Arabidopsis lyrata

Sequencing pooled DNA of multiple individuals from a population instead of sequencing individuals separately has become popular due to its cost-effectiveness and simple wet-lab protocol, although some criticism of this approach remains. Here we validated a protocol for pooled whole-genome re-sequencing (Pool-seq) of Arabidopsis lyrata libraries prepared with low amounts of DNA (1.6 ng per individual). The validation was based on comparing single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) frequencies obtained by pooling with those obtained by individual-based Genotyping By Sequencing (GBS). Furthermore, we investigated the effect of sample number, sequencing depth per individual and variant caller on population SNP frequency estimates. For Pool-seq data, we compared frequency estimates from two SNP callers, VarScan and Snape; the former employs a frequentist SNP calling approach while the latter uses a Bayesian approach. Results revealed concordance correlation coefficients well above 0.8, confirming that Pool-seq is a valid method for acquiring population-level SNP frequency data. Higher accuracy was achieved by pooling more samples (25 compared to 14) and working with higher sequencing depth (4.1× per individual compared to 1.4× per individual), which increased the concordance correlation coefficient to 0.955. The Bayesian-based SNP caller produced somewhat higher concordance correlation coefficients, particularly at low sequencing depth. We recommend pooling at least 25 individuals combined with sequencing at a depth of 100× to produce satisfactory frequency estimates for common SNPs (minor allele frequency above 0.05).     

Polymorphism attribution of cSNPs in cancer-related genes located in loss regions with a high frequency of HCC between HBV and health groups

Cancer-related genes harbored in the loss regions containing a high frequency of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) were selected.Related information was gathered and the coding single nucleotide polymorphism (cSNP) sequences were obtained from the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) database.The appropriate primers and oligonucleotide probes were then designed in accordance with the SNP sites,and subsequently,the gene chips for detecting SNPs were constructed.Genomic DNA was extracted from blood samples of healthy controls and from patients with HBV infection.The sequences,including the SNPs,were amplified via polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and labeled using digoxigenin deoxyuridine tri-phosphate (Dig-dUTP).The labeled products were then hybridized with the SNP chips.Results confirmed that the differences in allele frequencies of three SNPs EGFL3 (rs947345),Caspase9 (rs2308950),and E2F2 (rs3218171) were distinct between HBV-infected patients and controls,suggesting that these SNPs ocuring in high frequency in HBV-infected individuals may be associated with susceptibility to HCC.     

Single‐nucleotide polymorphism discovery and diversity in the model legume Medicago truncatula

Extensive genomic resources are available in the model legume Medicago truncatula. Here, we present the discovery and design of the first array of single‐nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers in M. truncatula through large‐scale Sanger resequencing of genomic fragments spanning the genome, in a diverse panel of 16 M. truncatula accessions. Both anonymous fragments and fragments targeting candidate genes for flowering phenology and symbiosis were surveyed for nucleotide variation in almost 230 kb of unique genomic regions. A set of 384 SNP markers was designed for an Illumina's GoldenGate assay, genotyped on a collection of 192 inbred lines (CC192) representing the geographical range of the species and used to survey the diversity of two natural populations. Finally, 86% of the tested SNPs were of high quality and exhibited polymorphism in the CC192 collection. Even at the population level, we detected polymorphism for more than 50% of the selected SNPs. Analysis of the allele frequency spectrum in the CC192 showed a reduced ascertainment bias, mostly limited to very rare alleles (frequency <0.01). The substantial polymorphism detected at the species and population levels, the high marker quality and the potential to survey large samples of individuals make this set of SNP markers a valuable tool to improve our understanding of the effect of demographic and selective factors that shape the natural genetic diversity within the selfing species Medicago truncatula.     

Single-nucleotide polymorphisms detected in expressed sequence tags of melon (Cucumis melo L.).

A search was performed for single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) and short insertions-deletions (indels) in 34 melon (Cucumis melo L.) expressed sequence tag (EST) fragments between two distantly related melon genotypes, a group Inodorus 'Piel de sapo' market class breeding line T111 and the Korean accession PI 161375. In total, we studied 15 kb of melon sequence. The average frequency of SNPs between the two genotypes was one every 441 bp. One indel was also found every 1666 bp. Seventy-five percent of the polymorphisms were located in introns and the 3'untranslated regions. On average, there were 1.26 SNPs plus indels per amplicon. We explored three different SNP detection systems to position five of the SNPs in a melon genetic map. Three of the SNPs were mapped using cleaved amplified polymorphic sequence (CAPS) markers, one SNP was mapped using the single primer extension reaction with fluorescent-labelled dideoxynucleotides, and one indel was mapped using polyacrilamide gel electrophoresis separation. The discovery of SNPs based on ESTs and a suitable system for SNP detection has broad potential utility in melon genome mapping.     

Analysis of polymorphisms in the insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF1R) gene from Japanese quail selected for body weight

Insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor ( IGF1R ) is essential for the signalling of growth. In this study, we performed single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) detection in the Japanese quail IGF1R coding region and an association study between SNPs and body weight in two lines (SS and LL) selected for large and small body weight. Of 21 SNPs obtained, a SNP at position AB292766:c.2293G>A led to the replacement of a valine with an isoleucine (V765I). The two lines were fixed for alternate alleles, with allele encoding valine fixed in the LL line. A significant effect of the SNP genotype was found on 10-week body weight ( P  < 0.01) and on 4- to 10-week and 6- to 10-week average daily gain ( P  < 0.05) in the F₂ family obtained from lines LL and SS. In six populations maintained in Japan or France, the frequency of allele encoding valine was higher than the allele encoding isoleucine.

Automated SNP Detection in Expressed Sequence Tags: Statistical Considerations and Application to Maritime Pine Sequences

We developed an automated pipeline for the detection of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in expressed sequence tag (EST) data sets, by combining three DNA sequence analysis programs: Phred, Phrap and PolyBayes. This application requires access to the individual electrophoregram traces. First, a reference set of 65 SNPs was obtained from the sequencing of 30 gametes in 13 maritime pine (Pinus pinaster Ait.) gene fragments (6671 bp), resulting in a frequency of 1 SNP every 102.6 bp. Second, parameters of the three programs were optimized in order to retrieve as many true SNPs, while keeping the rate of false positive as low as possible. Overall, the efficiency of detection of true SNPs was 83.1%. However, this rate varied largely as a function of the rare SNP allele frequency: down to 41% for rare SNP alleles (frequency < 10%), up to 98% for allele frequencies above 10%. Third, the detection method was applied to the 18498 assembled maritime pine (Pinus pinaster Ait.) ESTs, allowing to identify a total of 1400 candidate SNPs, in contigs containing between 4 and 20 sequence reads. These genetic resources, described for the first time in a forest tree species, were made available at http://www.pierroton.inra/genetics/Pinesnps. We also derived an analytical expression for the SNP detection probability as a function of the SNP allele frequency, the number of haploid genomes used to generate the EST sequence database, and the sample size of the contigs considered for SNP detection. The frequency of the SNP allele was shown to be the main factor influencing the probability of SNP detection.
