Sugarcane-breeding programs take at least 12 years to develop new commercial cultivars. Molecular markers offer a possibility
to study the genetic architecture of quantitative traits in sugarcane, and they may be used in marker-assisted selection to
speed up artificial selection. Although the performance of sugarcane progenies in breeding programs are commonly evaluated
across a range of locations and harvest years, many of the QTL detection methods ignore two- and three-way interactions between
QTL, harvest, and location. In this work, a strategy for QTL detection in multi-harvest-location trial data, based on interval
mapping and mixed models, is proposed and applied to map QTL effects on a segregating progeny from a biparental cross of pre-commercial
Brazilian cultivars, evaluated at two locations and three consecutive harvest years for cane yield (tonnes per hectare), sugar
yield (tonnes per hectare), fiber percent, and sucrose content. In the mixed model, we have included appropriate (co)variance
structures for modeling heterogeneity and correlation of genetic effects and non-genetic residual effects. Forty-six QTLs
were found: 13 QTLs for cane yield, 14 for sugar yield, 11 for fiber percent, and 8 for sucrose content. In addition, QTL
by harvest, QTL by location, and QTL by harvest by location interaction effects were significant for all evaluated traits
(30 QTLs showed some interaction, and 16 none). Our results contribute to a better understanding of the genetic architecture
of complex traits related to biomass production and sucrose content in sugarcane. 相似文献

QTL mapping of combining ability and heterosis of agronomic traits in rice backcross recombinant inbred lines and hybrid crosses 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Background
Combining ability effects are very effective genetic parameters in deciding the next phase of breeding programs. Although some breeding strategies on the basis of evaluating combining ability have been utilized extensively in hybrid breeding, little is known about the genetic basis of combining ability. Combining ability is a complex trait that is controlled by polygenes. With the advent and development of molecular markers, it is feasible to evaluate the genetic bases of combining ability and heterosis of elite rice hybrids through QTL analysis.Methodology/Principal Findings
In the present study, we first developed a QTL-mapping method for dissecting combining ability and heterosis of agronomic traits. With three testcross populations and a BCRIL population in rice, biometric and QTL analyses were conducted for ten agronomic traits. The significance of general combining ability and special combining ability for most of the traits indicated the importance of both additive and non-additive effects on expression levels. A large number of additive effect QTLs associated with performance per se of BCRIL and general combining ability, and dominant effect QTLs associated with special combining ability and heterosis were identified for the ten traits.Conclusions/Significance
The combining ability of agronomic traits could be analyzed by the QTL mapping method. The characteristics revealed by the QTLs for combining ability of agronomic traits were similar with those by multitudinous QTLs for agronomic traits with performance per se of BCRIL. Several QTLs (1–6 in this study) were identified for each trait for combining ability. It demonstrated that some of the QTLs were pleiotropic or linked tightly with each other. The identification of QTLs responsible for combining ability and heterosis in the present study provides valuable information for dissecting genetic basis of combining ability. 相似文献3.

Detection of quantitative trait loci (QTL) in breeding populations offers the advantage that these QTL are of direct relevance for the improvement of crops via knowledge-based breeding. As phenotypic data are routinely generated in breeding programs and the costs for genotyping are constantly decreasing, it is tempting to exploit this information to unravel the genetic architecture underlying important agronomic traits in crops. This review characterizes the germplasm from breeding populations available for QTL detection, provides a classification of the different QTL mapping approaches that are available, and highlights important considerations concerning study design and biometrical models suitable for QTL analysis. 相似文献

Coffea canephora breeding requires combining sustainable productivity with improved technological and cup quality characteristics. Beverage quality is a complex and subjective trait, and breeding for this trait is time consuming and depends on knowledge of the genetics of its components. A highly variable C. canephora progeny resulting from an intraspecific cross was assessed for 63 traits over 5?years. To identify quantitative trait loci (QTLs) controlling agronomic, technological, and quality-related traits, a genetic map comprising 236 molecular markers was constructed, and composite interval mapping was performed. Beverage quality was evaluated in relation to biochemical and cup tasting traits. QTLs were identified for almost half of the traits evaluated, with effects ranging from 6% to 80% of phenotypic variation. Most of them present a consistent detection over years. The strongest QTLs explained a high percentage of the variation for yield in 2006 (34% to 57%), bean size (25% to 35%), content of chlorogenic acids (22% to 35%), sucrose and trigonelline content (29% to 81%), and acidity and bitterness of coffee beverages (30% to 55%). Regions of the C. canephora genome influencing beverage quality were identified. Five QTL zones were co-localized with candidate genes related to the biosynthesis of the analyzed traits: two genes coding for caffeine biosynthesis, one gene implicated in the biosynthesis of chlorogenic acids, and two genes implicated in sugar metabolism. This is one of the first studies on the identification of QTLs combining agronomic and quality traits in coffee. The high variability of quality traits within C. canephora and the presence of consistent QTLs offer breeders a promising tool to improve coffee cup quality. 相似文献

Chickpea is one of the most important leguminous cool season food crops, cultivated prevalently in South Asia and Middle East.
The main objective of this study was to identify quantitative trait loci (QTLs) associated with seven agronomic and yield
traits in two recombinant inbred line populations of chickpea derived from the crosses JG62 × Vijay (JV population) and Vijay × ICC4958
(VI population) from at least three environments. Single locus QTL analysis involved composite interval mapping (CIM) for
individual traits and multiple-trait composite interval mapping (MCIM) for correlated traits to detect pleiotropic QTLs. Two-locus
analysis was conducted to identify the main effect QTLs (M-QTLs), epistatic QTLs (E-QTLs) and QTL × environment interactions.
Through CIM analysis, a total of 106 significant QTLs (41 in JV and 65 in VI populations) were identified for the seven traits,
of which one QTL each for plant height and days to maturity was common in both the populations. Six pleiotropic QTLs that
were consistent over the environments were also identified. LG2 in JV and LG1a in VI contained at least one QTL for each trait.
Hence, concentrating on these LGs in molecular breeding programs is most likely to bring simultaneous improvement in these
traits. 相似文献

QTL mapping for plant-height traits has not been hitherto reported in high-oil maize. A high-oil maize inbred ‘GY220’ was
crossed with two dent maize inbreds (‘8984’ and ‘8622’) to generate two connected F2:3 populations. Four plant-height traits were evaluated in 284 and 265 F2:3 families. Single-trait QTL mapping and multiple-trait joint QTL mapping was used to detect QTLs for the traits and the genetic
relationship between plant height (PH) and two other plant-height traits. A total of 28 QTLs and 12 pairs of digenic interactions
among detected QTLs for four traits were detected in the two F2:3 families. Only one marker was shared between the two populations. Joint analysis of PH with ear height (EH) and PH with top
height (TH) detected 32 additional QTLs. Our results showed that QTL detection for PH was dependent on the genetic background
of dent corn inbreds. Multiple-trait joint QTL analysis could increase the number of detected QTLs. 相似文献

Transmission of important chromosomal regions under selection revealed in rice pedigree breeding programs 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Genetic analysis across a whole plant genome based on pedigree information offers considerable potential for enhancing genetic gain from plant breeding programs through quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping and marker-assisted selection. Here, we report its application for graphically genotyping varieties used in Chinese japonica rice (Oryza sativa L.) pedigree breeding programs. We identified 34 important chromosomal regions from the founder parent that are under selection in the breeding programs, and by comparing donor genomic regions that are under selection with QTL locations of agronomic traits, we found that QTL clustered in important genomic regions, in accordance with association analyses of natural populations and other previous studies. The convergence of genomic regions under selection with QTL locations suggests that donor genomic regions harboring key genes/QTL for important agronomic traits have been selected by plant breeders since the 1950s from the founder rice plants. The results provide better understanding of the effects of selection in breeding programs on the traits of rice cultivars. They also provide potentially valuable information for enhancing rice breeding programs through screening candidate parents for targeted molecular markers, improving crop yield potential and identifying suitable genetic material for use in future breeding programs. 相似文献

QTLs for resistance to powdery mildew in pepper under natural and artificial infections 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

Epidemics of powdery mildew due to Leveillula taurica is an increasing problem in pepper production areas, particularly in coastal regions or greenhouse cultivation. The highly resistant genitor 'H3' was submitted to genetic analysis and QTL mapping in order to promote the introgression of its oligogenic resistance into large and sweet-fruited cultivars. The doubled-haploid progeny from the cross 'H3' (resistant) by 'Vania' (susceptible) was tested for resistance under both natural field infection and artificial inoculation tests, and QTL detection was compared for those two methods. Seven genomic regions including additive QTLs and epistatic interactions were detected, explaining altogether the major part of genotypic variance. Two genomic regions were common to both the evaluation methods, whereas other QTLs were method-specific, reflecting the environment dependence of powdery mildew epidemics. Orthologies with tomato genomic regions carrying resistance genes to L. taurica and Oidium lycopersicum were revealed by comparative mapping with pepper. Tight linkages between the detected QTLs and virus resistance or fruit color traits in pepper were also shown, which adds to the agronomic importance of these regions in pepper breeding programs.Communicated by G.

QTL methodology for response curves on the basis of non-linear mixed models, with an illustration to senescence in potato 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

The improvement of quantitative traits in plant breeding will in general benefit from a better understanding of the genetic basis underlying their development. In this paper, a QTL mapping strategy is presented for modelling the development of phenotypic traits over time. Traditionally, crop growth models are used to study development. We propose an integration of crop growth models and QTL models within the framework of non-linear mixed models. We illustrate our approach with a QTL model for leaf senescence in a diploid potato cross. Assuming a logistic progression of senescence in time, two curve parameters are modelled, slope and inflection point, as a function of QTLs. The final QTL model for our example data contained four QTLs, of which two affected the position of the inflection point, one the senescence progression-rate, and a final one both inflection point and rate. 相似文献

We enhance power and accuracy of QTL mapping in multiple related families, by clustering the founders of the families on their local genomic similarity.Abstract
MCQTL is a linkage mapping software application that allows the joint QTL mapping of multiple related families. In its current implementation, QTLs are modeled with one or two parameters for each parent that is a founder of the multi-cross design. The higher the number of parents, the higher the number of model parameters which can impact the power and the accuracy of the mapping. We propose to make use of the availability of denser and denser genotyping information on the founders to lessen the number of MCQTL parameters and thus boost the QTL discovery. We developed clusthaplo, an R package (http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/clusthaplo/index.html), which aims to cluster haplotypes using a genomic similarity that reflects the probability of sharing the same ancestral allele. Computed in a sliding window along the genome and followed by a clustering method, the genomic similarity allows the local clustering of the parent haplotypes. Our assumption is that the haplotypes belonging to the same class transmit the same ancestral allele. So their putative QTL allelic effects can be modeled with the same parameter, leading to a parsimonious model, that is plugged in MCQTL. Intensive simulations using three maize data sets showed the significant gain in power and in accuracy of the QTL mapping with the ancestral allele model compared to the classical MCQTL model. MCQTL_LD (clusthaplo outputs plug in MCQTL) is a versatile and powerful tool for QTL mapping in multiple related families that makes use of linkage and linkage disequilibrium (web site http://carlit.toulouse.inra.fr/MCQTL/). 相似文献12.

Lycopersicon parviflorum is a sexually compatible, wild tomato species which has been largely unutilized in tomato breeding. The Advanced Backcross
QTL (AB-QTL) strategy was used to explore this genome for QTLs affecting traits of agronomic importance in an interspecific
cross between a tomato elite processing inbred, Lycopersicon esculentum E6203, and the wild species L. parviflorum (LA2133). A total of 170 BC2 plants were genotyped by means of 133 genetic markers (131 RFLPs; one PCR-based marker, I-2, and one morphological marker, u, uniform ripening). Approximately 170 BC3 families were grown in replicated field trials, in California, Spain and Israel,
and were scored for 30 horticultural traits. Significant putative QTLs were identified for all traits, for a total of 199
QTLs, ranging from 1 to 19 QTLs detected for each trait. For 19 (70%) traits (excluding traits for which effects of either
direction are not necessarily favourable or unfavourable) at least one QTL was identified for which the L. parviflorum allele was associated with an agronomically favourable effect, despite the overall inferior phenotype of the wild species.

Kernel weight and morphology are important traits affecting cereal yields and quality. Dissecting the genetic basis of thousand kernel weight (TKW) and its related traits is an effective method to improve wheat yield. In this study, we performed quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis using recombinant inbred lines derived from the cross ‘PuBing3228 × Gao8901’ (PG-RIL) to dissect the genetic basis of kernel traits. A total of 17 stable QTLs related to kernel traits were identified, notably, two stable QTLs QTkw.cas-1A.2 and QTkw.cas-4A explained the largest portion of the phenotypic variance for TKW and kernel length (KL), and the other two stable QTLs QTkw.cas-6A.1 and QTkw.cas-7D.2 contributed more effects on kernel width (KW). Conditional QTL analysis revealed that the stable QTLs for TKW were mainly affected by KW. The QTLs QTkw.cas-7D.2 and QKw.cas-7D.1 associated with TKW and KW were delimited to the physical interval of approximately 3.82 Mb harboring 47 candidate genes. Among them, the candidate gene TaFT-D1 had a 1 bp insertions/deletion (InDel) within the third exon, which might be the reason for diversity in TKW and KW between the two parents. A Kompetitive Allele-Specific PCR (KASP) marker of TaFT-D1 allele was developed and verified by PG-RIL and a natural population consisted of 141 cultivar/lines. It was found that the favorable TaFT-D1 (G)-allele has been positively selected during Chinese wheat breeding. Thus, these results can be used for further positional cloning and marker-assisted selection in wheat breeding programs. Seventeen stable QTLs related to kernel traits were identified. The stable QTLs for thousand kernel weight were mainly affected by kernel width. TaFT-D1 could be the candidate gene for QTLs QTkw.cas-7D.2 and QKw.cas-7D.1. 相似文献

Chromosome segment substitution lines (CSSLs) are a powerful alternative for locating quantitative trait loci (QTL), analyzing gene interactions, and providing starting materials for map-based cloning projects. We report the development and characterization of a CSSL library of a U.S. weedy rice accession ‘PSRR-1’ with genome-wide coverage in an adapted rice cultivar ‘Bengal’ background. The majority of the CSSLs carried a single defined weedy rice segment with an average introgression segment of 2.8 % of the donor genome. QTL mapping results for several agronomic and domestication traits from the CSSL population were compared with those obtained from two recombinant inbred line (RIL) populations involving the same weedy rice accession. There was congruence of major effect QTLs between both types of populations, but new and additional QTLs were detected in the CSSL population. Although, three major effect QTLs for plant height were detected on chromosomes 1, 4, and 8 in the CSSL population, the latter two escaped detection in both RIL populations. Since this was observed for many traits, epistasis may play a major role for the phenotypic variation observed in weedy rice. High levels of shattering and seed dormancy in weedy rice might result from an accumulation of many small effect QTLs. Several CSSLs with desirable agronomic traits (e.g. longer panicles, longer grains, and higher seed weight) identified in this study could be useful for rice breeding. Since weedy rice is a reservoir of genes for many weedy and agronomic attributes, the CSSL library will serve as a valuable resource to discover latent genetic diversity for improving crop productivity and understanding the plant domestication process through cloning and characterization of the underlying genes. 相似文献

The QTLs analyses here reported demonstrate the significant role of both individual additive and epistatic effects in the genetic control of seed quality traits in the Andean common bean.Abstract
Common bean shows considerable variability in seed size and coat color, which are important agronomic traits determining farmer and consumer acceptability. Therefore, strategies must be devised to improve the genetic base of cultivated germplasm with new alleles that would contribute positively to breeding programs. For that purpose, a population of 185 recombinant inbred lines derived from an Andean intra-gene pool cross, involving an adapted common bean (PMB0225 parent) and an exotic nuña bean (PHA1037 parent), was evaluated under six different—short and long-day—environmental conditions for seed dimension, weight, color, and brightness traits, as well as the number of seed per pod. A multi-environment Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL) analysis was carried out and 59 QTLs were mapped on all linkage groups, 18 of which had only individual additive effects, while 27 showed only epistatic effects and 14 had both individual additive and epistatic effects. Multivariate models that included significant QTL explained from 8 to 68 % and 2 to 15 % of the additive and epistatic effects, respectively. Most of these QTLs were consistent over environment, though interactions between QTLs and environments were also detected. Despite this, QTLs with differential effect on long-day and short-day environments were not found. QTLs identified were positioned in cluster, suggesting that either pleiotropic QTLs control several traits or tightly linked QTLs for different traits map together in the same genomic regions. Overall, our results show that digenic epistatic interactions clearly play an important role in the genetic control of seed quality traits in the Andean common bean. 相似文献16.

Yield is one of the most important traits for rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) breeding, but its genetic basis remains largely ambiguous. Association mapping has provided a robust approach to understand the genetic basis of complex agronomic traits in crops. In this study, a panel of 192 inbred lines of B. napus from all over the world was genotyped using 451 single-locus microsatellite markers and 740 amplified fragment length polymorphism markers. Six yield-related traits of these inbred lines were investigated in three consecutive years with three replications, and genome-wide association studies were conducted for these six traits. Using the model controlling both population structure and relative kinship (Q + K), a total of 43 associations (P < 0.001) were detected using the means of the six yield-related traits across 3 years, with two to fourteen markers associated with individual traits. Among these, 18 markers were repeatedly detected in at least 2 years, and 12 markers were located within or close to QTLs identified in previous studies. Six markers commonly associated with correlated traits. Conditional association analysis indicated that five of the associations between markers and correlated traits are caused by one QTL with pleiotropic effects, and the remaining association is caused by linked but independent QTLs. The combination of favorable alleles of multiple associated markers significantly enhances trait performance, illustrating a great potential of utilization of the associations in rapeseed breeding programs. 相似文献

Ramie fiber extracted from stem bast is one of the most important natural fibers. The fiber yield of ramie is a valuable trait and is decided by several components, including stem number per plant (SN), the fiber yield per stem (FYPS), stem length (SL), stem diameter (SD), and bark thickness (BT). All of these fiber yield-related traits are inherited in a quantitative manner. The genetic basis for these traits is still uncharacterized, which has hindered the improvement of yield traits through selective ramie breeding. In this study, an F2 population derived from two ramie varieties, Zhongzhu 1 and Qingyezhuma, with striking differences in fiber yield-related traits, was used for cutting propagation and to develop an F2 agamous line (FAL) population. A genetic linkage map with 132 DNA loci spanning 2,265.1 cM was first constructed. The analysis of quantitative trait locus (QTL) for fiber yield-related traits was performed in ramie for the first time. Finally, a total of 6, 9, 5, 7, and 6 QTLs for FYPS, SL, SN, SD, and BT, respectively, were identified in the FAL population in two environments. Among these 33 QTLs, 9 QTLs were detected in both environments and 24 QTLs exhibited overdominance. The overdominance of these QTLs possibly contributed to the heterosis of these yield-related traits in ramie. Moreover, there were 7 QTL clusters identified. The identification of the QTLs for fiber yield-related traits will be helpful for improving the fiber yield in ramie breeding programs. 相似文献

Milling yield, or the grain weight from which 100 kg of rolled groats is obtained upon milling, is an important quality characteristic
of cultivated oat (Avena sativa L.). Kernel morphology and the groat (caryopsis) percentage of the whole kernel including hull are factors that influence
milling yield. We mapped QTLs for kernel area, kernel length, kernel width, and groat percentage in two populations of 137
recombinant inbred lines by RFLP and AFLP analysis to evaluate the prospects of marker-assisted selection (MAS). Phenotypic
correlations between kernel morphology traits and groat percentage were not significant. For kernel morphology traits and
groat percentage, one to five QTLs were detected, explaining 7.0–60.7% of the total phenotypic variance depending on the trait.
One QTL for kernel length in each population and one QTL for kernel width in one population were found at the same location
as a QTL for groat percentage, indicating that a change in kernel size or shape could have an influence on groat percentage.
The positions and effects of QTLs for kernel morphology and groat percentage were compared to QTLs detected previously for
chemical grain composition (oil andβ-glucanconcentration) and agronomic traits to evaluate the selection response on these
traits through MAS. Several regions of the oat genome were identified that contained clusters of QTLs influencing two or more
traits. While the allele from one parent at a QTL could simultaneously improve two or more traits in one population, it could
have opposite effects on the same traits at another QTL or in the other population. Associations among traits were complex
and will require careful consideration when employing QTL-marker associations in MAS to avoid negative selection response.
Future research to discover candidate genes for those QTL clusters could provide information about trait associations and
help in designing selection programs.

Development of methodologies for early selection is one of the most important goals of olive breeding programs at present. In this context, the identification of molecular markers associated with beneficial alleles could allow the development of marker-assisted selection (MAS) strategies in olive breeding programs. Fruit-related and plant vigor traits, which are of key importance for olive selection and breeding, were analyzed during two seasons in a progeny derived from the cross ‘Picual’ × ‘Arbequina.’ Quantitative trait loci (QTL) analyses were performed using MapQTL 4.0. A total of 22 putative QTLs were identified in the map of ‘Arbequina.’ QTLs clustered in linkage groups (LG) 1, 10 and 17. QTLs for oil-related traits located in LG 1 and 10 explained around 20–30 % of the phenotypic variability depending on the season and the trait. QTL for moisture-related traits were detected in LG 1, 10 and 17, and QTLs for the ratio pulp to stone were identified in LG 10 and 17 explaining around 15–20 %. Interaction between QTLs for the same trait was investigated. The significance of these results was discussed considering the co-localization of QTLs and Pearson correlations among traits. Five additional QTLs were detected in the map of ‘Picual.’ Four of them clustered in LG 17 indicating the presence of a QTL for fruit weight explaining around 12.7–15.2 % of the variability. Additionally, a QTL for trunk diameter was detected in LG 14 explaining 16 % of the variation. These results represent an important step toward the application of MAS in olive breeding programs. 相似文献

QTL mapping of yield, agronomic and quality traits in tetraploid potato (Solanum tuberosum subsp. tuberosum) 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Interval mapping of quantitative trait loci (QTL) for 16 yield, agronomic and quality traits in potato was performed on a
tetraploid full-sib family comprising 227 clones from a cross between processing clone 12601ab1 and table cultivar Stirling.
Thirty-eight AFLP primer combinations and six SSRs provided 514 informative markers which formed a molecular marker map comprising
12 linkage groups (LGs) in 12601ab1 (nine with four homologous chromosomes) which were aligned with 12 in Stirling (11 with
four homologous chromosomes), with four partial groups remaining in 12601ab1. Two LGs were identified unequivocally as chromosomes
IV and V and eight others were tentatively assigned with chromosomes VII and X unidentified. All of the traits scored had
moderately high heritabilities with 54–92% of the variation in clone means over 3 years and two replicates being due to genetic
differences. A total of 39 QTLs were identified. A QTL for maturity was identified on chromosome V which explained 56% of
the phenotypic variance, whereas the other QTLs individually explained between 5.4 and 16.5%. However, six QTLs were detected
for after-cooking blackening and four for each of regularity of tuber shape, fry colour both after storage at 4 and 10°C and
sprouting. Just two QTLs were found for each of yield, the two ‘overall’ scores, crop emergence, tuber size and common scab
and just one QTL was detected for each of dry matter content, keeping quality, growth cracks and internal condition. The implications
for practical potato breeding and for practical linkage and QTL analysis in autotetraploids are discussed. 相似文献
