Two apple genetic linkage maps were constructed using amplified fragment length polymorphisms (AFLPs), simple sequence repeats
(SSRs), random amplified polymorphic DNAs (RAPDs), and expressed sequence tag (EST)-derived markers in combination with a
pseudo-testcross mapping strategy in which the cultivars ‘Ralls Janet’ and ‘Delicious’ were used as the respective seed parents.
Mitsubakaido (Malus sieboldii) was used as the pollen parent for each of the segregating F1 populations. Expressed sequence tag data were obtained from the random sequencing of cDNA libraries constructed from in vitro
cultured shoots and maturing fruits of cv ‘Fuji’, which is the offspring of a cross between ‘Ralls Janet’ and ‘Delicious’.
In addition, a number of published gene sequences were used to develop markers for mapping. The ‘Ralls Janet’ map consisted
of 346 markers (178 AFLPs, 95 RAPDs, 54 SSRs, 18 ESTs, and the S locus) in 17 linkage groups, with a total length of 1082 cM, while that of ‘Delicious’ comprised 300 markers (120 AFLPs,
81 RAPDs, 64 SSRs, 32 ESTs, and the S, Rf, and MdACS-1 loci) on 17 linkage groups spanning 1031 cM. These maps are amenable to comparisons with previously published maps of ‘Fiesta’
and ‘Discovery’ (Liebhard et al., Mol Breed 10:217–241, 2002; Liebhard et al., Theor Appl Genet 106:1497–1508, 2003a) because several of the SSRs (one to three markers per linkage group) were used in all of the maps. Distorted marker segregation
was observed in three and two regions of the ‘Ralls Janet’ and ‘Delicious’ maps, respectively. These regions were localized
in different parts of the genome from those in previously reported apple linkage maps. This marker distortion may be dependent
on the combinations of cultivars used for map construction. 相似文献

A population derived from a cross between grapevine breeding strain Gf.Ga-52-42 and cultivar ‘Solaris’ consisting of 265 F1-individuals
was genetically mapped using SSR markers and screened for downy mildew resistance. Quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis
revealed two strong QTLs on linkage groups (LGs) 18 and 09. The locus on LG 18 was found to be identical with the previously
described locus Rpv3 and is transmitted by Gf.Ga-52-42. ‘Solaris’ transmitted the resistance-related locus on LG 09 explaining up to 50% of the
phenotypic variation in the population. This downy mildew resistance locus is named Rpv10 for resistance to Plasmopara viticola. Rpv10 was initially introgressed from Vitis amurensis, a wild species of the Asian Vitis gene pool. The one-LOD supported confidence interval of the QTL spans a section of 2.1 centi Morgan (cM) corresponding to
314 kb in the reference genome PN40024 (12x). Eight resistance gene analogues (RGAs) of the NBS–LRR type and additional resistance-linked
genes are located in this region of PN40024. The F1 sub-population which contains the Rpv3 as well as the Rpv10 locus showed a significantly higher degree of resistance, indicating additive effects by pyramiding of resistance loci. Possibilities
for using the resistance locus Rpv10 in a grapevine breeding programme are discussed. Furthermore, the marker data revealed ‘Severnyi’ × ‘Muscat Ottonel’ as the
true parentage for the male parent of ‘Solaris’. 相似文献

Although seedling herbivory is an important selective filter in many plant communities, how and why seedlings are selected
is poorly understood. Here, we examined the putative role of herbivore olfaction in dictating seedling selection. Using a
Y-tube olfactometer we compared snail (Helix aspersa) preference for pellets derived from 14-day-old macerated seedlings of nine European grassland (‘Test’) species against standard
(‘Control’) pellets derived from lettuce. Snail movement towards ‘Test’ pellets was strongly correlated with seedling acceptability
(Pearson’s r
2 = 0.86, P > 0.01) and where snails exhibited a positive choice for the ‘Test’ species, the choice was made more quickly for highly
acceptable species (r
2 = 0.86, P > 0.01). In elucidating a link between seedling acceptability and olfactory response to macerated seedlings, our study suggests
that even from an early ontogenetic stage plant selection by snails may be governed by olfactory cues. This finding highlights
the need for research on the role of plant volatiles in plant–herbivore interactions to consider more fully interactions operating
at the seedling stage. 相似文献

Parallelisms and paraphyletic assemblages are common among ovenbirds. Molecular markers are therefore the best approach when
studying the evolutionary relationships among the members of this unparalleled diversified family. We obtained nucleotide
sequence data from mitochondrial (cytochrome b) and nuclear genes (myoglobin and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphodehydrogenase) and used these to deduce the phylogenetic position
of a monotypic genus endemic to the austral temperate rainforests of southern South America, the Des Murs’ Wiretail (Sylviorthorhynchus
desmursii Des Murs, 1847, Aves: Furnariidae). Phylogenetic analyses based on maximum parsimony, maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference
all converged into a congruent topology, with a basal position of Des Murs’ Wiretail within Synallaxinae together with Tit–Spinetails
(Leptasthenura). Our data reject the hypothesis of a phylogenetic relationship between Des Murs’ Wiretail and thistletails (Schizoeaca) which exhibit parallelisms in morphology, tail structure and nest architecture. Using a molecular clock based on the myoglobin
intron 2 gene, we estimated a divergence time of Des Murs’ Wiretail from Tit-Spinetails of 14–15 Myr, which is associated
with the appearance of sclerophyllous forest elements in Chile at the Middle–Upper Miocene.

One hundred and sixty microsatellite (simple sequence repeat (SSR)) and six gene-specific markers revealing 174 loci were
scored in 94 seedlings from the inter-specific cross of Prunus avium ‘Napoleon’ × Prunus nipponica accession F1292. The co-segregation data from these markers were used to construct a linkage map for cherry which spanned
680 cM over eight linkage groups with an average marker spacing of 3.9 cM per marker and just six gaps longer than 15 cM.
Markers previously mapped in Prunus dulcis ‘Texas’ × Prunus persica ‘Earlygold’ allowed the cherry map to be anchored to the peach × almond map and showed the high level of synteny between
the species. Eighty-four loci segregated in P. avium ‘Napoleon’ versus 159 in P. nipponica. The segregations of 32 isoenzyme loci in a subset of 47 seedlings from the progeny were scored, using polyacrylamide gel
electrophoresis and/or isoelectric focusing separation followed by activity staining, and the co-segregation data were analysed
along with those for 39 isoenzymes reported previously and for the 174 sequence-tagged site loci plus an additional two SSR
loci. The second map incorporates 233 loci and spans 736 cM over eight linkage groups with an average marker spacing of 3.2 cM
per marker and just two gaps greater than 15 cM. The microsatellite map will provide a useful tool for cherry breeding and
marker-assisted selection and for synteny studies within Prunus; the gene-specific markers and isoenzymes will be useful for comparisons with maps of other rosaceous fruit crops.

Resistance to cotton blue disease (CBD) was evaluated in 364 F2.3 families of three populations derived from resistant variety ‘Delta Opal’. The CBD resistance in ‘Delta Opal’ was controlled
by one single dominant gene designated Cbd. Two simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers were identified as linked to Cbd by bulked segregant analysis. Cbd resides at the telomere region of chromosome 10. SSR marker DC20027 was 0.75 cM away from Cbd. DC20027 marker fragments amplified from 3 diploid species and 13 cotton varieties whose CBD resistance was known were cloned
and sequenced. One single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) was identified at the 136th position by sequence alignment analysis.
Screening SNP markers previously mapped on chromosome 10 identified an additional 3 SNP markers that were associated with
Cbd. A strong association between a haplotype based on four SNP markers and Cbd was developed. This demonstrates one of the first examples in cotton where SNP markers were used to effectively tag a trait
enabling marker-assisted selection for high levels of CBD resistance in breeding programs. 相似文献

The Rvi15 (Vr2) apple scab resistance locus found in the GMAL 2473 accession has been previously mapped to the top of the Linkage Group
2 (LG2) by analyzing 89 progeny plants of a cross between ‘Idared’ and GMAL 2473. A new population of 989 progeny plants,
derived from a cross between ‘Golden Delicious’ and GMAL 2473, has been analyzed with the two SSR markers CH02c02a and CH02f06,
previously found to be associated with Rvi15 (Vr2), and with two published markers derived from NBS sequences (ARGH17 and ARGH37) estimated to map close to the Rvi15 (Vr2) locus. ARGH17 and ARGH37, were found to be the closest markers to the resistance locus, bracketing it within an interval
of 1.5 cM. The SSRs mapped one on each side of Rvi15 (Vr2). CH02f06 mapped at 2.9 cM from ARGH37 while CH02a02a mapped at 1.7 from ARGH17. The position of Rvi15 (Vr2) respect to CH02a02a indicates that Rvi15 (Vr2) and Rvi4 (Vh4), a second apple scab gene mapped on the top of LG2, are two different resistance genes. In order to develop even more tightly
linked markers to Rvi15 (Vr2), ARGH17 was used as the starting point for chromosome walking through the Rvi15 (Vr2) homolog region of the cv. ‘Florina’. A single ‘Florina’ BAC clone, 36I17, was sufficient to span the homologous locus in
the new population’s recombinant progeny. Sequencing of the 36I17 BAC clone allowed identifying seven putative ORFs, including
two showing a TIR-NBS-LRR structure. Ten additional markers could be developed mapping within a 1.8 cM interval around the
Rvi15 (Vr2) resistance gene. ARGH17 and GmTNL1 markers, the latter also derived from NBS-LRR resistance gene homolog sequence, are the
closest markers to Rvi15 (Vr2) bracketing it within a 0.5 cM interval. The availability of 12 markers within the Rvi15 (Vr2) region, all within a small physical distance (kbp) in ‘Florina’, suggests that cloning of the Rvi15 (Vr2) apple scab resistance gene from GMAL 2473 will be possible. 相似文献

Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] cultivars varied in their resistance to different populations of the soybean cyst nematode (SCN), Heterodera glycines, called HG Types. The rhg1 locus on linkage group G was necessary for resistance to all HG types. However, the loci for resistance to H. glycines HG Type 1.3- (race 14) and HG Type 1.2.5- (race 2) of the soybean cyst nematode have varied in their reported locations.
The aims were to compare the inheritance of resistance to three nematode HG Types in a population segregating for resistance
to SCN and to identify the underlying quantitative trait loci (QTL). ‘Hartwig’, a soybean cultivar resistant to most SCN HG
Types, was crossed with the susceptible cultivar ‘Flyer’. A total of 92 F5-derived recombinant inbred lines (RILs; or inbred
lines) and 144 molecular markers were used for map development. The rhg1 associated QTL found in earlier studies were confirmed and shown to underlie resistance to all three HG Types in RILs (Satt309;
HG Type 0, P = 0.0001 R
2 = 22%; Satt275; HG Type 1.3, P = 0.001, R
2 = 14%) and near isogeneic lines (NILs; or iso-lines; Satt309; HG Type 1.2.5-, P = 0.001 R
2 = 24%). A new QTL underlying resistance to HG Type 1.2.5- was detected on LG D2 (Satt574; P = 0.001, R
2 = 11%) among 14 RILs resistant to the other HG types. The locus was confirmed in a small NIL population consisting of 60
plants of ten genotypes (P = 0.04). This QTL (cqSCN-005) is located in an interval previously associated with resistance to both SDS leaf scorch from
‘Pyramid’ and ‘Ripley’ (cqSDS-001) and SCN HG Type 1.3- from Hartwig and Pyramid. The QTL detected will allow marker assisted
selection for multigenic resistance to complex nematode populations in combination with sudden death syndrome resistance (SDS)
and other agronomic traits. 相似文献

Eight native Iranian almond species from three sections, ‘Euamygdalus’ (Prunus communis; Prunus eleagnifolia and Prunus orientalis); ‘Lycioides’ (Prunus lycioides and Prunus reuteri) and ‘Spartioides’ (Prunus arabica, Prunus glauca and Prunus scoparia) were in vitro screened for drought tolerance using sorbitol and polyethylene glycol (PEG) as an osmoticum. Different levels
of water stress were induced using five concentrations of either sorbitol or polyethylene glycol in Woody Plant Medium (WPM).
Water potential of various media ranged from −0.80 to −2.05 MPa and water stress in culture medium adversely affected plantlet
growth. Wild species from ‘Spartioides’ were less affected than ‘Lycioides’ and ‘Euamygdalus’. At the same level of water
potential, sorbitol had lower adverse effects than PEG; the latter being severe. Prunus × sorbitol and Prunus × PEG interactions were significant. At 0.2 M sorbitol and 0.003 M PEG, ‘Spartioides’ produced significantly more roots with
higher total root length and root volume, as well as root-dry weight than those of ‘Lycioides’ and ‘Euamygdalus.’ It is concluded
that in vitro screening of native Iranian almond species under specific and limited water-stress conditions may provide a
system for effectively differentiating the wild species of almond for their expected root mass production under field conditions. 相似文献

Bio-manufacturing of nano-scale palladium was achieved via enzymatically-mediated deposition of Pd from solution using Desulfovibrio desulfuricans, Escherichia coli and Cupriavidus metallidurans. Dried ‘Bio-Pd’ materials were sintered, applied onto carbon papers and tested as anodes in a proton exchange membrane (PEM)
fuel cell for power production. At a Pd(0) loading of 25% by mass the fuel cell power using Bio-Pd

(positive control) and Bio-Pd
E. coli
(negative control) was ~140 and ~30 mW respectively. Bio-Pd
C. metallidurans
was intermediate between these with a power output of ~60 mW. An engineered strain of E. coli (IC007) was previously reported to give a Bio-Pd that was >3-fold more active than Bio-Pd of the parent E. coli MC4100 (i.e. a power output of >110 mW). Using this strain, a mixed metallic catalyst was manufactured from an industrial
processing waste. This ‘Bio-precious metal’ (‘Bio-PM’) gave ~68% of the power output as commercial Pd(0) and ~50% of that
of Bio-Pd

The effect of the cytokinins mT (meta-topolin), mTR (meta-topolin riboside), MemT (meta-methoxy topolin) and MemTR (meta-methoxy topolin riboside) on micropropagation of banana cultivars ‘Williams’ and ‘Grand Naine’ was studied and compared to
BA (6-benzylaminopurine). In vitro cultures, at the third sub-culture level, were purchased from African Biotechnologies (Pty)
Ltd., South Africa. These were then sub-cultured on MS media containing 7.5, 15 and 30 μM of all the cytokinins tested. Results
recorded after 6 weeks of growth demonstrated that there were statistically significant differences between the parameters
analyzed for the treatments. Superior multiplication rates were recorded for mT and mTR treatments. This result was consistent when compared to BA at 22.2 μM (previously published standard concentration). Contrary
to previous findings with other species, these cytokinins inhibited rooting. The effect on somaclonal variation was not significantly
different when BA, mT and mTR were tested at the seventh multiplication cycle for ‘Williams’ banana. These results support the possible use of topolins
as an alternative to BA for Cavendish banana tissue culture. The role of these cytokinins on somaclonal variation however,
requires a more stringent investigation as the results obtained in this investigation could have been influenced by carry-over
effects from the initial cultures. 相似文献

Loquat [Eriobotrya japonica (Thunb.) Lindl.] is a Rosaceae fruit species of growing interest as an alternative to the main fruit crops. However, only
a few genetic studies have been carried out on this species. This paper reports the construction of the first genetic maps
of two loquat cultivars based on AFLP and microsatellite markers from Malus, Eriobotrya, Pyrus and Prunus genera. An F1 population consisting of 81 individuals, derived from the cross between ‘Algerie’ and ‘Zaozhong-6’ cultivars, was used to
construct both maps. A total of 111 scorable simple sequence repeat (SSR) loci resulted from the testing of 440 SSR primer
pairs in the analyzed progeny and the SSR transferability to Eriobotrya was found to be 74% from apple, 58% from pear and 49% from Prunus spp. In addition, 183 AFLP polymorphic bands were produced using 42 primer combinations. The ‘Algerie’ map was organized
in 17 linkage groups covering a distance of 900 cM and comprising 177 loci (83 SSRs and 94 AFLPs) with an average marker distance
of 5.1 cM. Self-incompatibility trait was mapped at the distal part of the LG17 linkage group, as previously reported in Malus and Pyrus. The ‘Zaozhong-6’ map covered 870 cM comprising 146 loci (64 SSRs and 82 AFLPs) with an average marker distance of 5.9 cM.
The 44 SSRs and the 48 AFLPs share in common by both maps were essentially collinear and, moreover, the order of the 75% of
apple and pear SSRs mapped in Eriobotrya was shown to be consistent across the Maloideae subfamily. As a whole, these maps represent a useful tool to facilitate loquat
breeding and an interesting framework for map comparison in the Rosaceae. 相似文献

The alpine Tiger moth, Metacrias huttoni, of South Island, New Zealand, has adapted to female microptery through unusual courting behavior and behavioral plasticity
with regard to copulation position. Courting revolves around male manipulation (‘fluffing’) of the female’s highly derived
covering of flocculent setae. This was found to be not only necessary to cue female receptivity, but was also shown to stimulate
oviposition. Both freshly pupated (24 h after eclosion) and mature (1 wk after eclosion) virgin females showed significantly
greater oviposition after artificial grooming. The standard back-to-back copulatory position of winged moths was replaced
in 86% of matings with alternative positions. The structure and functional significance of female setae is examined. A preliminary
hypothesis for the origin of the moths’ mating behavior is outlined. 相似文献

Amplified fragment length polymorphisms (AFLP) and targeted simple sequence repeats (SSR) were employed to assess genetic
similarity of North American apricots having natural resistance to plum pox virus (PPV) within diversified germplasm including
six nondomesticated apricot species. On a dendrogram constructed from 231 AFLP loci, the position of the North American cultivars
reflects relatedness to the European apricots and introgression of non-European germplasm as well. The occurrence of diagnostic
AFLP markers supports an introgression of Chinese germplasm into the North American PPV resistant assortment and supports
a different breeding history for ‘Stark Early Orange’ (SEO) and Goldrich-Harlayne lineages. Five SSR loci linked to the PPV
resistance region on G1 provided evidence that the investigated lineages (SEO and ‘Harlayne’–‘Goldrich’) have the same or
related source of resistance introduced presumably from Northern China. Possible introgression of genetic material from nondomesticated
apricots P. mandshurica sp, P. sibirica var. davidiana and P. mume sp. was detected and discussed.

A major scab resistance gene called Va1 was identified in the Russian apple cultivar ‘Antonovka’ (accession APF22) conferring scab resistance under conditions of
natural scab infection in the field. After scab scorings over a period of 3 years, a 1:1 segregation was observed in the mapping
population 04/214 (‘Golden Delicious’ × ‘Antonovka’). The Va1 resistance gene provides sufficient broad spectrum resistance that is of use in apple resistance breeding and has been assigned
Rvi17 according the proposal for a new scab nomenclature (Bus et al., Acta Horticulturae 814:739–746, 2009). Analysis of simple sequence repeats (SSRs) located on the apple linkage group (LG) 1 showed that the Va1 locus is closely linked (1 cM) to SSR CH-Vf1 known to cosegregate with the Vf locus. A tight genetic association was also observed between a specific cleaved amplified polymorphic sequence marker (ARD-CAPS)
developed from the HcrVf paralog Vf2ARD present in ‘Antonovka’, but there is no indication yet for a causal relationship with Vf2ARD. Although the whole race spectrum of Va1 is still unknown, it was obvious that it acts against the scab races 6 and 7 which are able to overcome the resistance of
Malus floribunda 821. A second resistance factor (named Va2) was studied by race 1-specific scab tests based on grafted 04/214 clones. A 1:1-segregation ratio was observed, too, but
18 “phenotypic recombinants” were found after comparisons with the field scab data of the same genotypes. Va2 was mapped on LG 1 with a genetic distance of about 15 cM above CH-Vf1. The positions of the newly identified ‘Antonovka’
scab resistance factors are compared with previously reported Va mapping approaches and published results from quantitative trait loci analyses performed with different ‘Antonovka’ genotypes. 相似文献

Grapevine rootstock cultivar ‘B?rner’ is a hybrid of Vitis riparia and Vitis cinerea Arnold that shows high resistance to phylloxera (Daktulosphaira vitifoliae Fitch). To localize the determinants of phylloxera root resistance, the susceptible grapevine V3125 (Vitis vinifera ‘Schiava grossa’ × ‘Riesling’) was crossed to ‘B?rner’. Genetic framework maps were built from the progeny. 235 microsatellite
markers were placed on the integrated parental map. They cover 1,155.98 cM on 19 linkage groups with an average marker distance
of 4.8 cM. Phylloxera resistance was scored by counting nodosities after inoculation of the root system. Progeny plants were
triplicated and experimentally infected in 2 years. A scan of the genetic maps indicated a quantitative trait locus on linkage
group 13. This region was targeted by six microsatellite-type markers newly developed from the V. vinifera model genome sequence. Two of these appear closely linked to the trait, and can be useful for marker-assisted breeding. 相似文献

Fire blight (Erwinia amylovora) causes serious damage to pome fruit orchards, and identification of germplasm with heritable disease resistance is therefore
crucial. Two dominant SCAR (sequence characterised amplified region) marker alleles (AE10-375 and GE-8019), flanking a previously
identified QTL (quantitative trait locus) for resistance to fire blight on ‘Fiesta’ linkage group 7 in apple cultivars related
to ‘Cox’s Orange Pippin’, were screened on 205 apple cultivars. Both marker alleles were present in 22% of the cultivars,
indicating presence of the QTL allele for tolerance, and both were lacking in 25%, indicating homozygosity for absence of
the QTL tolerance allele. However, 33% had only the marker allele AE10-375, while 20% had only GE-8019, suggesting that some
cultivars with the dominant alleles for both of the flanking markers can carry these on separate chromosomes and may lack
the QTL allele for tolerance. In 2009 and 2010, terminal shoots of greenhouse-grown grafted trees of 21 cultivars (only 20
in 2010) were inoculated with Erwinia amylovora. ‘Idared’ (susceptible) and ‘Enterprise’ (tolerant) were included as controls. Disease severity for each cultivar was expressed
as percentage of necrosis in relation to entire length of shoot, and the ranking of cultivars in 2009 and 2010 was compared
with a Spearman rank correlation test, P < 0.01. A relationship between presence of both flanking marker alleles for tolerance and level of fire blight tolerance
was confirmed with a Mann–Whitney U-test, P < 0.01 in 2009, and P < 0.05 in 2010. A PCO (principal coordinate) analysis based on band profiles obtained with 12 SSR (simple sequence repeat)
loci produced three loose clusters, two of which contained known offspring of ‘Cox’s Orange Pippin’, and one with cultivars
that were either unrelated or had an unknown origin. Cases where DNA markers did not predict level of fire blight damage as
expected, were, however, as common among descendants of ‘Cox’s Orange Pippin’ as among apparently unrelated cultivars. Obviously
the ‘Fiesta’ LG 7 QTL has some predictive value, both for known ‘Cox’ relatives and others, but more efficient markers would
be desirable for marker-assisted selection. 相似文献

Subgenus Cerasus species are useful genetic resources for cherry breeding programs. A total of 17 morphological traits together with 19 random
amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) primers were used to study 39 accessions including 34 wild Cerasus subgenus genotypes belonging to Prunus avium L., P. cerasus L., P. mahaleb L., P. microcarpa Boiss., P. incana Pall., and P. brachypetala Boiss. species, along with an unknown wild Cerasus sample, two advanced cherry cultivars (‘Lambert’ and ‘Bulgar’), and two rootstocks (‘Colt’ and ‘Gisela 6’). Genotypes were
separated into different groups according to their species and collection sites using cluster analysis performed by Ward’s
clustering method based on morphological data. Nineteen RAPD primers from 60 screened produced 304 polymorphic reproducible
bands (98.15% polymorphism). According to the similarity matrix, the lowest similarity was obtained between P. avium and P. microcarpa samples. A dendrogram was prepared by the unweighted pair-group method with arithmetic average (UPGMA), and the accessions
were separated according to their species and geographic origin. In both morphological and molecular results, the advanced
cultivars and rootstocks were separated from wild genotypes, and the unknown genotype was grouped with P. mahaleb accessions. Grouping by morphological characteristics was compared with the results of RAPD analysis, with no significant
correlations between morphological and molecular data being found. This is the first report of molecular (RAPD) genetic diversity
study in wild Cerasus subgenus genotypes from Iran, and the results demonstrate the high potential of RAPD analysis for discrimination of Cerasus subgenus genotypes. 相似文献

Marker-assisted selection (MAS) offers quick and reliable prediction of the phenotypes of seedlings in large populations and
thus opens new approaches for selection to breeders of apple (Malus x domestica Borkh.). The development of framework maps enables the discovery of genetic markers linked to desired traits. Although genetic
maps have been reported for apple scion cultivars, none has previously been constructed for apple rootstocks. We report the
construction of framework genetic maps in a cross between ‘M.9’ (‘Malling 9’) and ‘R.5’ (‘Robusta 5’) apple rootstocks. The
maps comprise 224 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers, 18 sequence-characterised amplified regions, 14 single nucleotide
polymorphisms and 42 random amplified polymorphic DNAs. A new set of 47 polymorphic SSRs was developed from apple EST sequences
and used for construction of this rootstock map. All 17 linkage groups have been identified and aligned to existing apple
genetic maps. The maps span 1,175.7 cM (‘M.9’) and 1,086.7 cM (‘R.5’). To improve the efficiency of mapping markers to this
framework map, we developed a bin mapping set. Applications of these new genetic maps include the elucidation of the genetic
basis of the dwarfing effect of the apple rootstock ‘M.9’ and the analysis of disease and insect resistance traits such as
fire blight (Erwinia amylovora), apple scab (Venturia inaequalis) and woolly apple aphid (Eriosoma lanigerum). Markers for traits mapped in this population will be of direct use to apple breeders for MAS and for identification of

The nutritional value and yield potential of US Western Shipping melon (USWS; Cucumis melo L.) could be improved through the introgression of genes for early fruit maturity (FM) and the enhancement of the quantity
of β-carotene (QβC) in fruit mesocarp (i.e., flesh color). Therefore, a set of 116 F3 families derived from the monoecious, early FM Chinese line ‘Q 3-2-2’ (no β-carotene, white mesocarp) and the andromonoecious,
late FM USWS line ‘Top Mark’ (possessing β-carotene, orange mesocarp) were examined during 2 years in Wisconsin, USA to identify
quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with FM and QβC. A 171-point F2–3 based map was constructed and used for QTL analysis. Three QTL associated with QβC were detected, which explained a significant
portion of the observed phenotypic variation (flesh color; R
2 = 4.0–50.0%). The map position of one QTL (β-carM.E.9.1) was uniformly aligned with one carotenoid-related gene (Orange gene),
suggesting its likely role in QβC in this melon population and putative relationship with the melon white flesh (wf) gene.
Two major (FM.6.1 and FM.11.1; R
2 ≥ 20%) and one minor QTL (FM.2.1; R
2 = 8%) were found to be associated with FM. This map was then merged with a previous recombinant inbred line (RIL)-based map
used to identify seven QTL associated with QβC in melon fruit. This consensus map [300 molecular markers (187 co-dominant
melon and 14 interspecific; 10 LG)] provides a framework for the further dissection and cloning of published QTL, which will
consequently lead to more effective trait introgression in melon. 相似文献
