水稻紫色柱头的遗传分析与基因定位

rdh是四川农业大学水稻研究所通过组织培养和连续自交得到的一个具有红色籽粒和紫色柱头,遗传上稳定的籼稻材料。抽穗期在rdh与3个无色柱头品种蜀恢527、蜀恢368和蜀恢168之间分别做正反交,结果显示F1群体在柱头颜色上正反交之间没有明显区别,全部是紫色的。F2群体发生分离成为两组,一组具有紫色柱头,另一组具有无色柱头。每一个F2群体的紫色柱头对无色柱头均适合3：1的比例,表明rdh紫色柱头性状的遗传是由一对显性核基因控制的。组合rdh／蜀恢527 F2分离群体中40个具有紫色柱头的显性单株和284个具有无色柱头的隐性单株构成定位群体。从两个亲本rdh和蜀恢527提取的基因组DNA,用涵盖水稻整个基因组的252对微卫星标记作引物扩增片段。结果发现有78对微卫星标记在两亲本之间具有多态性。然后用这78对标记作引物,扩增亲本、F1、F2显性单株和F2隐性单株、,结果显示位于水稻第6染色体的RM276、RM253以及RM111与rdh紫色柱头基因有连锁关系。再用RM276、RM253以及RM111作引物扩增剩余的全部具有无色柱头的隐性单株。结果表明：在RM276的扩增产物中,有20个单交换和2个双交换;在RM253中有2个单交换：在RM111中有3个单交换。因此,rdh紫色柱头基因被定位于水稻第6染色体。根据公式P=（h＋2b）／2n,计算得到微卫星标记RM276,RM253和RM111与rdh紫色柱头基因的遗传距离分别是4．2cM、0．35cM以及0．53cM。根据已经发表的RM276、RM253和RM111在第6染色体上的位置以及计算得到的rdh与RM276、RM253和RM111之间的遗传距离,构建了部分连锁图谱,并暂时将这个紫色柱头基因命名为Ps-4。

Genetic Analysis and Physical Mapping of Lk-4(t), a Major Gene Controlling Grain Length in Rice, with a BC2F2 Population

Grain size and shape are important factors affecting grain quality and yield in rice. Mapping, tagging and identification of their related genes can lead us to understand their expression pattern and mechanism network, which is to their control. In this study we mapped a grain length controlling gene named Lk-4(t) with SSR and CAPs markers by screening 800 recessive plants in a BC₂F₂ population derived from a cross of Shuhui527xXiaoli and backcrossed with Xiaoli as the donor parent. The distribution of grain shape parameters and thousand grain weight in F₂ and BC₂F₂ population showed that backcross can diminish most unnecessary variations to identify the target gene more clearly. There were only two grain length phenotypes found among the 3 209 BC₂F₂ plants, long and short, indicating it is a qualitative trait. The frequency distribution for the grain length showed a typical segregation ratio of 3 : 1, suggesting that only one allele was responsible for the variation. By screening the recessive long grain plants with three CAPs markers, P1-EcoR V, P2-Sac I and P3-Mbo I, we tagged the locus on the arm of chromosome 3 near the centromere. Lk-4(t) was located between P1-EcoRV and P2-Sac I, with genetic distance of 0.90 cM and 0.50 cM from the two markers respectively. Mapping of the gene is a foundation for its final identification and function analysis.     

水稻粒长基因GL3的遗传分析和分子标记定位

Quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis for rice grain width and fine mapping of an identified QTL allele gw-5 in a recombination hotspot region on chromosome 5

Rice grain width and shape play a crucial role in determining grain quality and yield. The genetic basis of rice grain width was dissected into six additive quantitative trait loci (QTL) and 11 pairs of epistatic QTL using an F(7) recombinant inbred line (RIL) population derived from a single cross between Asominori (japonica) and IR24 (indica). QTL by environment interactions were evaluated in four environments. Chromosome segment substitution lines (CSSLs) harboring the six additive effect QTL were used to evaluate gene action across eight environments. A major, stable QTL, qGW-5, consistently decreased rice grain width in both the Asominori/IR24 RIL and CSSL populations with the genetic background Asominori. By investigating the distorted segregation of phenotypic values of rice grain width and genotypes of molecular markers in BC(4)F(2) and BC(4)F(3) populations, qGW-5 was dissected into a single recessive gene, gw-5, which controlled both grain width and length-width ratio. gw-5 was narrowed down to a 49.7-kb genomic region with high recombination frequencies on chromosome 5 using 6781 BC(4)F(2) individuals and 10 newly developed simple sequence repeat markers. Our results provide a basis for map-based cloning of the gw-5 gene and for marker-aided gene/QTL pyramiding in rice quality breeding.     

Genetic analysis and gene mapping of a rice few-tillering mutant in early backcross populations (Oryza sativa L.)

A rice mutant, G069, characteristic of few tiller numbers, was found in anther culture progeny from the F1 hybrid between an indica-japonica cross, Gui630×02428. The mutant has another two major features: delayed tillering development and yellowing apex and margin on the mature leaves. As a donor parent, G069 was further backcrossed with the recurrent parent, 02428, for two turns to develop a BC2F2 population. Genetic analysis in the BC2F2 population showed that the traits of few-tillering and yellowing apex and margin on the mature leaves were controlled by one recessive gene. A pool of equally mixed genomic DNA, from few-tillering individual plants in BC2F2, was constructed to screen polymorphism with simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers in comparison with the 02428 genome. One SSR marker and three restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) markers were found possibly linked with the recessive gene. By using these markers, the gene of few-tillering was mapped on chromosome 2 between RFLP marker C     

Development of a sequence characteristic amplified region marker linked to the L4 locus conferring broad spectrum resistance to tobamoviruses in pepper plants

To develop molecular markers linked to the L4 locus conferring resistance to tobamovirus pathotypes in pepper plants, we performed AFLP with 512 primer combinations for susceptible (S pool) and resistant (R pool) DNA bulks against pathotype 1.2 of pepper mild mottle virus. Each bulk was made by pooling the DNA of five homozygous individuals from a T10 population, which was a near-isogenic BC4F2 generation for the L4 locus. A total of 19 primer pairs produced scorable bands in the R pool. Further screening with these primer pairs was done on DNA bulks from T102, a BC10F2 derived from T10 by back crossing. Three AFLP markers were finally selected and designated L4-a, L4-b and L4-c. L4-a and L4-c each underwent one recombination event, whereas no recombination for L4-b was seen in 20 individuals of each DNA bulk. Linkage analysis of these markers in 112 F2 T102 individuals showed that they were each within 2.5 cM of the L4 locus. L4-b was successfully converted into a simple 340-bp SCAR marker, designated L4SC340, which mapped 1.8 cM from the L4 locus in T102 and 0.9 cM in another BC10F2 population, T101. We believe that this newly characterized marker will improve selection of tobamovirus resistance in pepper plants by reducing breeding cost and time.     

Linkage and mapping analyses of the densonucleosis non-susceptible gene nsd-Z in the silkworm Bombyx mori using SSR markers.

In the silkworm Bombyx mori, non-susceptibility to the Zhenjiang (China) strain of the densonucleosis virus (DNV-Z) is controlled by the recessive gene nsd-Z (non-susceptible to DNV-Z), which is located on chromosome 15. Owing to a lack of crossing over in females, reciprocal backcrossed F1 (BC1) progeny were used for linkage analysis and mapping of the nsd-Z gene using silkworm strains Js and L10, which are classified as being highly susceptible and non-susceptible to DNV-Z, respectively. BC1 larvae were inoculated with the DNV-Z virus at the first instar, and DNA was extracted from the individual surviving pupae and analyzed for simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. The nsd-Z gene was found to be linked to 7 SSR markers, as all the surviving larvae in the BC1female (F1female x L10male) showed the homozygous profile of strain L10, and the sick larvae in the BC1female (F1female x L10male) showed the heterozygous profile of Js x L10 F1 hybrids. Using a reciprocal BC1male (L101female x F1male) cross, we constructed a linkage map of 80.6 cM, with nsd-Z mapped at 30 cM and the closest SSR marker at a distance of 4.4 cM.     

Genetic mapping of a new semi-dwarf gene, sd-t(t), in indica rice and estimating of the physical distance of the mapping region

Application and functional study of dwarf and semi-dwarf genes are of great importance to both crop breeding and molecular biology. A new semi-dwarf gene, sd-t(t), non-allelic to sd-1, had been identified in an indica rice variety, Aitaiyin 2. In this study the gene was genetically mapped by using an F2 population, which consisted of 474 individuals developed from a cross between Aitaiyin 2 and B30. The sd-t(t) gene was located between the RFLP markers R514 and R1408B with a distance of 1.1 cM to R514, and 4.5 cM to R1408B on chromosome 4. A physical contig covering the sd-t(t) mapping region was further constructed by screening a BAG library with R514 and R1408B as probes, and the physical distance between R514 and R1408B was estimated at approximately 147 kb. This result will facilitate map-based cloning of the sd-t(t) gene.     

Genetic and Microsatellite Analyses of a New Elongated Uppermost Internode Gene Teui2 of Rice

Two mutants possessing elongated uppermost internode, Xieqingzao eB-1 (XQZeB-1) and Xieqingzao eB-2 (XQZeB-2), were identified from M 2 population of Xieqingzao B-line (XQZB) treated with γ-ray. The proportion of uppermost internode length to entire culm length of XQZeB-2 and XQZeB-1 were 65.3%and 54.8%, respectively. Compared with the original XQZB, the increased length of uppermost internode of XQZeB-2 contributed to the total increased culm length by 90.2% as well as XQZeB-1 by 53.3%. Genetic analysis showed that the characters of elongated uppermost internode in the two mutants were governed by one pair of recessive gene respectively. The recessive gene of XQZeB-1 is allelic to the reported eui , but that of XQZeB-2 is non-allelic to it by allelic test. Therefore, the elongated-uppermost-internode gene of XQZeB-2 is a new gene, designated as eui2. Microsatellite markers RM258, RM269, RM271 and RM304, which were linked with eui2 and located on chromosome 10, were identified. The genetic distances from the four markers to eui2 were 12.0 cM, 12.9 cM, 35.1 cM, 1.4 cM, respectively. It could be concluded that eui2 gene was located on the middle of the long arm of chromosome 10.
