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.     

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.     

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.     

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.

Musa Genetic Diversity Revealed by SRAP and AFLP

The sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) technique, aimed for the amplification of open reading frames (ORFs), vis-â-vis that of the amplified fragment length polymorphisms (AFLP) were used to analyze the genetic variation and relationships among forty Musa accessions; which include commercial cultivars and wild species of interest for the genetic enhancement of Musa. A total of 403 SRAP and 837 AFLP amplicons were generated by 10 SRAP and 15 AFLP primer combinations, of which 353 and 787 bands were polymorphic, respectively. Both cluster analysis of unweighted pair-grouping method with arithmetic averages (UPGMA) and principal coordinate (PCO) analysis separated the forty accessions into their recognized sections (Eumusa, Australimusa, Callimusa and Rhodochlamys) and species. The percentage of polymorphism amongst sections and species and the relationships within Eumusa species and subspecies varied between the two marker systems. In addition to its practical simplicity, SRAP exhibited approximately threefold more specific and unique bands than AFLP, 37 and 13%, respectively. SRAP markers are demonstrated here to be proficient tools for discriminating amongst M. acuminata, M. balbisiana and M. schizocarpa in the Eumusa section, as well as between plantains and cooking bananas within triploid cultivars.

Evaluation of genetic diversity in Lentinula edodes strains using RAPD, ISSR and SRAP markers

Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) and sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) markers were used to evaluate the genetic diversity among 23 elite Lentinula edodes strains in China. A total of 138, 77 and 144 bands were detected by 16 RAPD primers, 5 ISSR primers and 23 SRAP primer combinations, among which 58.8%, 73.5% and 56.3% was polymorphic, respectively. By UPGMA clustering, a dendrogram was constructed based on each analysis. The three dendrograms showed that 23 L. edodes strains were clustered into three or four groups. The grouping exhibited similar structure and was generally consistent with their pedigrees. Twenty-three L. edodes strains shared great similarity indicated that the low level of genetic diversity of L. edodes strains and their relationship between each other. The important source of breeding material, such as wild and exotic types, must be introduced in order to broaden genetic base and decreases genetic vulnerability of L. edodes.     

Assessment of genetic diversity of coffee leaf rust pathogen Hemileia vastatrix using SRAP markers

Coffee leaf rust caused by the fungus Hemileia vastatrix (Berk and Br.) is a major disease occurring in coffee plantations. Although the rust fungus exists in different physiological races, the genetic difference between them is meagrely understood. In this study, genetic diversity of 14 identified and two unidentified leaf rust races was determined by sequence‐related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) markers. Of 48 SRAP primer pairs tested, 35 primers are polymorphic and generated 347 distinct scorable fragments. The number of fragments ranged from 4 to 18 with a mean of 9.97 fragments per primer combination. Of the total 347 amplified fragments, 185 fragments (53.31%) are polymorphic with an average of 5.41 fragments per primer combination. The average resolving power (Rp) and the average polymorphism information content (PIC) of the 35 SRAP primer combinations were 13.60 and 0.356, respectively. Of 35 SRAP primer pairs, 15 primer pairs were more informative and generated 25 unique fragments, which are useful for race discrimination. The study demonstrated the existence of genetic variability among various leaf rust races and this information will be helpful in coffee breeding programmes.     

Genetic diversity in colonial bentgrass (Agrostis capillaris L.) revealed by EcoRI-MseI and PstI-MseI AFLP markers.

Colonial bentgrass (Agrostis capillaris L.) is a potential source for genetic improvement of resistance to environmental stress and disease for other bentgrass species (Agrostis spp.). To conserve and study the existing genetic resources of colonial bentgrass for use in breeding, genetic diversity was investigated using amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) markers. Included in this study were 22 accessions from US Department of Agriculture germplasm collected from 11 countries, in conjunction with 14 accessions from northern Spain and 3 commercial cultivars. Ten EcoRI-MseI and 6 PstI-MseI AFLP primer combinations produced 181 and 128 informative polymorphic bands, respectively. Cluster analysis of genetic similarity estimates revealed a high level of diversity in colonial bentgrass species with averages of 0.51 (EcoRI-MseI) and 0.63 (PstI-MseI). Greater genetic diversity was detected by the EcoRI-MseI AFLP primer combinations. A low but significant positive correlation (r = 0.44, p = 0.0099) between the 2 Jaccard similarity matrices was obtained by the Mantel test. Commercial cultivars of bentgrass showed a narrow genetic background. The assessment of genetic diversity among colonial bentgrass accessions suggested the potential value of the colonial bentgrass germplasm in turfgrass cultivar improvement.     

Genetic diversity of endangered Manglietia patungensis assessed by inter simple sequence repeat and sequence-related amplified polymorphism markers

Manglietia patungensis Hu is an endangered plant native to China. Knowledge of its genetic diversity and structure would aid its conservation. This study assessed nine natural populations of M. patungensis using two methods: inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR) and sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) markers. Using 10 ISSR primer pairs, 334 bands were generated, and 10 SRAP primer pairs generated 276 bands. The percent of polymorphic bands (91.32% and 93.48%), Nei's genetic diversity (0.3448 and 0.3323), and Shannon's information index (0.5075 and 0.4935) revealed a high level of genetic diversity at the species level. Total heterozygosity was 0.3439 by ISSR and 0.3281 by SRAP. The mean heterozygosity was 0.2323 by ISSR and 0.2521 by SRAP. The coefficient of genetic differentiation among natural populations was 0.3245 by ISSR and 0.2316 by SRAP. These data indicated higher levels of genetic diversity of M. patungensis within, rather than among, populations. Estimates of gene flow among natural populations were 1.0411 and 1.0589, which implied a certain amount of gene exchange among populations. A Mantel test revealed no significant correlation between genetic and geographic distance. ISSR and SRAP markers are both effective for genetic diversity research in M. Patungensis. Based on these results, conservation of M. patungensis should be performed both in situ and ex situ.

AFLP analysis of genetic variability in New Guinea impatiens

New Guinea impatiens ( Impatiens hawkeri) is an economically important floral crop, however, little work has been conducted to further our understanding of the genetics of this crop. In this study, we used amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) technology to investigate the level of polymorphism present among 41 commercial cultivars of New Guinea impatiens, study their genetic relatedness, and assess the genetic diversity in this material. An efficient DNA extraction protocol was developed, and a total of 48 EcoRI and MseI primer combinations were used for PCR amplification. Amplification products were then subjected to polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The AFLP analysis showed that all 41 cultivars generated between 73 and 130 scoreable polymorphic bands per primer combination. Gower's Genetic Dissimilarity estimates for the entire set of cultivars ranged between 0.940 and 0.488. A dendogram was generated from these dissimilarity data that revealed four groupings among these 41 cultivars. The implications of these results on genotypic variation, genetic relationships, and genetic diversity in New Guinea impatiens will be discussed.
