利用RAPD和ISSR标记分析烤烟品种间遗传关系

利用RAPD和ISSR标记对22份烤烟(Nicotiana tabacumL.)品种进行了遗传关系研究。在RAPD分析中筛选到13个引物,共扩增出167条带,其中多态性带50条,多态性比率为29.9%;在ISSR分析中筛选出7个引物,共扩增出96条带,其中多态性带44条,多态性比率为45.8%。两种标记相结合估算出的品种间遗传相似系数在0.881~0.979之间,平均为0.933。单独基于RAPD标记和ISSR标记的聚类结果有一定差异;两种标记结合起来的聚类分析结果与系谱信息吻合程度更高。定向选择可能对烤烟品种间遗传关系有较大影响;国外引进品种与国内育成品种并未完全分开,表明分子水平的遗传关系和地理来源间缺乏必然联系。     

Comparative Evaluation of SSR and ISSR Markers for Polymorphism in Landraces and Elite Varieties of Rice (Oryza sativa L)

The study aims at comparing SSR and ISSR markers for their ability to identify polymorphism in parents comprising three landraces and two elite varieties of rice. Both the SSR (0.51) and ISSR (0.46) primers showed almost similar values for Poly morphic Information Content (PIC). Maximum PIC values were observed with trinucleotide ISSR primers (0.67) followed by dinucleotide ISSR primers. In addition to the mapped SSR markers, ISSR markers used in the present study produced more polymorphic markers suggesting their utility in the survey of polymorphism between the parental lines belonging to the same sub-species of rice.     

Activation of transposable elements and insertional polymorphism in Opuntia offspring as assessed by inter-retrotransposon amplified polymorphism markers

Activation of retrotransposon is a pivotal factor in the genesis of genetic polymorphism. Retrotransposon-based molecular markers are excellent tools for detecting genetic diversity and genomic changes associated with their activity. The objective of this study was to use IRAP markers to detect integration events of retrotransposon in Opuntia, and to compare IRAP and ISSR polymorphisms. To achieve these aims, five IRAP and five ISSR markers were analyzed on three varieties and their progenies. All IRAP primers showed an increase in the percentage of polymorphism, number of total bands, and polymorphic bands in the seedlings compared to their mother plants; that is, the offspring showed 13, 24 and 27 more bands than the mother plants from Tobarito, Montesa and Copena varieties, respectively. Conversely, sexual reproduction did not proportionally affect the variation in the number of ISSR bands, and neither did polymorphisms between mother plants and their offspring. Cluster and multivariate analyses based on IRAP and ISSR data revealed a clear separation between varieties, and there was no overlapping between seedlings of different varieties. The activation of retrotransposons in seedlings of opuntia with variable frequencies was evidenced. The presence of insertion and active retrotransposons may help to undertake studies on genetic diversity and evolution of Opuntia.     

Inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) amplification for analysis of microsatellite motif frequency and fingerprinting in rice (Oryza sativa L.)

 Inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) amplification was used to analyze microsatellite motif frequency in the rice genome and to evaluate genetic diversity among rice cultivars. A total of 32 primers, containing different simple sequence repeat (SSR) motifs, were tested for amplification on a panel of 59 varieties, representative of the diversity of cultivated rice (Oryza sativa L.). The ISSR analysis provided insights into the organization, frequency and levels of polymorphism of different simple sequence repeats in rice. The more common dinucleotide motifs were more amenable to ISSR analysis than the more infrequent tri-, tetra- and penta-nucleotide motifs. The ISSR results suggested that within the dinucleotide class, the poly(GA) motif was more common than the poly(GT) motif and that the frequency and clustering of specific tri- and tetra-nucleotide simple sequence repeats was variable and motif-specific. Furthermore, trinucleotide ISSR markers were found to be less polymorphic than either dinucleotide or certain tetranucleotide ISSR markers, suggesting which motifs would be better targets for microsatellite marker development. The ISSR amplification pattern was used to group the rice genotypes by cluster analysis. These results were compared to surveys of the same varieties for amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP), restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and isozyme markers. The ISSR fingerprint could be used to differentiate the genotypes belonging to either Japonica or Indica sub species of cultivated rice and to dissect finer levels of diversity within each subspecies. A higher percentage of polymorphic bands was produced with the ISSR technique than the AFLP method, based on a similar PCR reaction. Therefore, ISSR amplification proved to be a valuable method for determining genetic variability among rice varieties and for rapidly identifying cultivars. This efficient genetic fingerprinting technique would be useful for characterizing the large numbers of rice accessions held in national and international germplasm centers.

DNA Profiling and Assessment of Genetic Relationships Among Important Seedless Grape (Vitis vinifera) Varieties in India Using ISSR Markers

In the present work, 43 seedless grape (Vitis vinifera) varieties were evaluated using 14 informative ISSR primers. A total of 119 bands were scored, out of which 79% were polymorphic. The level of polymorphism varied according to the primers which was evident also from different Resolving Power values of the individual primers. Based on the DNA fingerprint data of only three primers (UBC 857, 888 and 890), all the varieties except one could be identified. UPGMA cluster analysis revealed high degree of similarity among the varieties. Distinct subgroups based on the berry colour were observed. No intravarietal differences were detected. Overall grouping was in accordance with morphological characters and pedigree, proving usefulness of ISSR markers to assess genetic relationships among grape varieties.     

Analysis of genetic diversity among garden- and field-pea genotypes of higher Indian Himalayas

Genetic diversity among 31 genotypes of field and garden pea including primitive cultivated forms and widely cultivated varieties of India was studied using 40 random decamer and 9 ISSR primers. A total of 274 amplicons were detected using both types of markers, which amplified 192 RAPD and 82 ISSR amplicons. Average number of bands amplified per primer was higher in case of ISSR (9.1) as compared to RAPDs (4.8). ISSR primers also exhibited higher average polymorphism (89.0%) and resolving power (4.50) than RAPDs (72.4%, 1.87, respectively). Genetic similarity estimates based on the pooled data of both types of markers using Jaccard??s coefficient ranged from 0.58 to 0.85 delineating considerable diversity among the pea genotypes studied. The 31 genotypes clustered in two major groups based on pooled data. Popular cultivars of garden and field pea of the region exhibited high similarities among themselves. However, primitive cultivated forms collected from the higher Indian Himalayas were diverse from the current varieties and hold potential in pea breeding programmes.     

Inter and intra-population variability of Pongamia pinnata: a bioenergy legume tree

Pongamia pinnata is an oil-producing tree species with multiple uses and considerable potential as a bioenergy crop. This investigation was carried out to assess the extent of genetic structure in a representative set of 226 individuals of Pongamia pinnata encompassing seven populations as a prelude to utilization of promising and genetically divergent material in breeding programmes. Molecular polymorphism was 67.18% with ten inter simple sequence repeats (ISSR) between the individuals indicating modest levels of genetic variation in the Pongamia pinnata germplasm collected. The within-population variation based on ISSR polymorphism was 32.34% and polymorphism at the species level was 94.3%. Genetic differentiation between populations (GST = 0.61) was positively correlated with geographical distance. The data obtained indicate an immediate need to widen the genetic base of Pongamia pinnata germplasm for proper characterization, and for extensive plantations of elite varieties to meet the demands for biodiesel.

Assessment of Genetic Diversity Among Rice Genotypes with Differential Adaptations to Salinity Using Physio-morphological and Molecular Markers

Breeding for salt tolerance using traditional screening and selection methods have been limited by the complex and polygenic nature of salt tolerance trait. This study was designed to evaluate some of the premium Basmati rice varieties for salt tolerance and to characterize genetic diversity among the rice varieties with different adaptations to saline soils using microsatellite (SSR) and ISSR markers. Plants of nine rice varieties including salt tolerant, salt sensitive and traditional Basmati, were grown in hydroponics using Yoshida solution containing 0 (control, pH 5.0) and 30 mM NaCl (Electrical conductivity 4.8 d/S, pH 5.0) and assessed for salinity tolerance on 1–9 scale as per IRRI standard evaluation system using seedling growth parameters, visual salt injuries and Na-K ratio. Physio-morphological studies showed that traditional Basmati rice varieties (Basmati 370 and HBC19) were more sensitive than the salt sensitive control variety, MI-48. SSR as well as ISSR marker systems generated higher levels of polymorphism and could distinguish between all the 9 rice cultivars. A total of 299 (225 polymorphic) and 437 (430 polymorphic) bands were detected using 28 UBC ISSR primers and 100 welldistributed mapped SSR markers, respectively. ISSR and SSR marker data-sets showed moderate levels of positive correlation (Mantel test, r = 0.43). The ISSR and SSR marker data analyzed using clustering algorithms showed two distinct clusters separating the Basmati (Basmati 370, HBC19 and CSR-30) from other non-aromatic indica (IR36, Pokkali, CSR10 and MI-48) rice varieties indicating greater divergence between Basmati and non-aromatic indica rice genotypes. Marker analysis showed a close relationship among the two traditional (Basmati 370 and HBC19) and cross-bred (CSR30) Basmati rice varieties and greater diversity between the two salt-tolerant genotypes, Pokkali and BR4-10.     

Inter-primer binding site retrotransposon and inter-simple sequence repeat diversity among wild Lens species

Even though lentil has been an important food legume for centuries, genetic studies in lentil are still in their infancy. Genetic diversity and relationships among wild Lens species from Turkey has seldom been investigated. Additionally, a limited number of simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers have been developed for use in breeding and genetic studies of lentil crop. In this study, molecular characterization of 50 accessions mostly from Turkey, belonging to 6 wild and 1 cultivated Lens species, was performed using newly developed inter-primer binding site (iPBS) retrotransposons and inter-SSR (ISSR) markers. The 10 iPBS primers generated a total of 151 scorable bands, of which 150 were polymorphic (99.3%) with an average of 15.0 polymorphic fragments per primer. The 10 ISSR primers detected 138 scorable bands showing 100% polymorphism, with an average of 13.5 bands per primer. The average polymorphism information content (PIC) value for ISSR markers (0.97) was higher than that for iPBS markers (0.90). Lens orientalis was found to be the most diverse species, raising the possibility of wide crosses with cultivated species Lens culinaris. Cultivated varieties also showed high level of polymorphism, at 82.92% and 51.92% with ISSR and iPBS markers, respectively. Lens lamottei and Lens tomentosus were found as the least polymorphic species using both marker systems. The grouping of accessions and species within clusters were almost similar when iPBS and ISSR graphs were compared. Our data also suggested the role of iPBS-retrotransposons as ‘a universal marker’ for molecular characterization of wild and cultivated Lens species.     

Construction of Fingerprinting and Genetic Diversity of Mulberry Cultivars in China by ISSR Markers

The ISSR fingerprintings of 24 mulberry cultivars were constructed. Totally 80 bands were produced using 17 primers selected from 20 primers. Of them, 40 bands showed polymorphism. From the bands amplified, there were three independent ways to identify the mulberry varieties, such as unique ISSR markers, unique band patterns and a combination of the band patterns provided by different primers. ISSRs were very effective in differentiating the mulberry varieties. The mean genetic similarity coefficient, the mean Nei's gene diversity (h), and the mean Shannon's Information index (I) of mulberry cultivars were 0.8731, 0.1210, and 0.1942, respectively. This suggests that the genetic diversity of mulberry cultivars was low and the genetic base was narrow. Both UPGMA cluster and PCA (Principal Coordinates Analysis) analysis showed clear genetic relationships among the 24 mulberry cultivars. The major clusters were related to known pedigree relationships.     

RAPD and ISSR fingerprints as useful genetic markers for analysis of genetic diversity, varietal identification, and phylogenetic relationships in peanut (Arachis hypogaea) cultivars and wild species.

Abstract: Twenty-one random and 29 SSR primers were used to assess genetic variation and interrelationships among subspecies and botanical varieties of cultivated peanut, Arachis hypogaea (2n = 4x = 40), and phylogenetic relationships among cultivated peanut and wild species of the genus Arachis. In contrast with the previous generalization that peanut accessions lack genetic variation, both random and SSR primers revealed 42.7 and 54.4% polymorphism, respectively, among 220 and 124 genetic loci amplified from 13 accessions. Moreover, the dendrograms based on RAPD, ISSR, and RAPD + ISSR data precisely organized the five botanical varieties of the two subspecies into five clusters. One SSR primer was identified that could distinguish all the accessions analysed within a variety. Although the polymorphic index content varied from 0.1 to 0.5 for both ISSR and RAPD markers, primer index values were substantially higher for RAPD primers (0.35-4.65) than for SSR primers (0.35-1.73). It was possible to identify accessions, particularly those of divergent origins, by RAPD and (or) ISSR fingerprints. Based on these results, marker-based genetic improvement in A. hypogaea appears possible. None of the 486 RAPD and 330 ISSR amplification products were found to be commonly shared among 13 species of section Arachis and one species each of sections Heteranthae, Rhizomatosae, and Procumbentes. Dendrograms constructed from RAPD, ISSR, and RAPD + ISSR data showed overall similar topologies. They could be resolved into four groups corresponding to the species grouped in four taxonomic sections. The present results strongly support the view that Arachis monticola (2n = 4x = 40) and A. hypogaea are very closely related, and indicate that A. villosa and A. ipaensis are the diploid wild progenitors of these tetraploid species.     

Molecular-genetic identification and certification of soybean (Glycine max L.) cultivars

An approach to certification of soybean genotypes has been developed. The procedure employs three methods of DNA analysis based on polymerase chain reaction (PCR): PCR with arbitrary primers (AP PCR), simple sequence repeat polymorphism (SSRP) analysis, and inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) analysis. The approach to certification proposed may be used in both genetic and breeding research and seed production. A "certificate" form that reflects the unique characteristics of each cultivar studied is proposed. The results of molecular genetic analysis of allele distribution in genotypes of soybean from different ecological geographic zones permit estimation of the adaptive significance of individual alleles.     

DNA fingerprints of living fossil Ginkgo biloba by using ISSR and improved RAPD analysis

In this study, we have aimed to genetically characterize Ginkgo biloba. Nine G. biloba samples from different places of China were collected, and DNA was extracted from the leaves of these samples for inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) and random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis. ISSR analysis showed high genetic variation among the nine varieties of G. biloba; the polymorphism and similarity coefficients were 87% and 0.40–0.84, respectively. RAPD analysis also showed 93% polymorphism, and the similarity coefficients ranged from 0.44 to 0.87. Persistent genetic isolation that developed for millions of years might influence the genetic variability between the samples of G. biloba. This study generates a genetic map of G. biloba, and reports the highly variable intra-species genetic characteristics of this living fossil among different geographical locations of China. Our study also suggests that ISSR and the improved RAPD markers are useful molecular tools for the genetic characterization of plants.     

ISSR Analysis of Variability of Cultivated Form and Varieties of Pomegranate (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Punica granatum</Emphasis> L.) from Azerbaijan

The article presents the results of a study of genetic polymorphism for the first time carried out on pomegranate varieties and forms of Azerbaijan origin using molecular markers. In total, 102 PCR fragments were identified, of which 80 were polymorphic. The high level of polymorphism (75.5%) and the rich genetic diversity were identified among the studied pomegranate collection. As a result of data analysis and on the basis of the values of the basic parameters (PIC, EMR, MI, RP, MRP) determining informativeness of markers, all 14 ISSR primers were suitable for genotyping pomegranate accessions. The most effective markers (UBC808, UBC811, UBC834, and UBC840) were identified among the set of primers tested. A dendrogram was constructed on the basis of the data obtained, which made it possible to group genotypes into 16 major clusters. The genetic similarity index ranged from 0.032 to 0.94. The study of the genetic relationship of different pomegranate varieties confirms the effectiveness of the ISSR method, which makes it possible to determine the level of genetic diversity, as well as to establish the relationship among the studied pomegranate accessions.     

Genetic analysis of Indian mulberry varieties through molecular markers

India is one of the countries where sericulture is being practiced traditionally. Due to the higher economic return and the greater employment potential, attempts are being made to increase the productivity by developing high yielding mulberry varieties. At the present, Mysore local, Bomaypiasbari, Kanva-2, Bilidevalaya, Kajli, S1, BC(2)59, C776, RFS-175, S-36 and Victory-1 are being cultivated extensively in different parts of India for rearing the silkworm Bombyx mori L. Using 17 random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and 11 inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) primers the genetic relationships among these varieties were analyzed. The RAPD and ISSR primers revealed more than 75% polymorphism among the varieties. The genetic similarity estimated from RAPD markers varied from 0.645, between Kajli and Victory-1 to 0.887, between Kanva-2 and Bilidevalaya. Similarly, the genetic similarity estimated from the ISSR markers ranged from 0.600, between Kajli and Victory-1, to 0.873 between Kanva-2 and BC(2)59. The dendrogram constructed from these markers grouped the varieties into three major groups comprising the low yielding, medium yielding and high yielding. The low genetic similarity between the group of varieties originating from the eastern regions with that of the southern region encourages formation of extensive breeding programs between these groups as to transfer the high yield potential of the southern varieties to the low yielding but highly adaptive eastern varieties.     

Genetically determined enzyme polymorphism in soy varieties (Glycine max) and in wild soy (Glycine soja)

Analysis of 22 genetic-biochemical systems (42 loci) in 18 varieties of domestic soybean (G. max) and in 3 population of wild soybean (G. soja) was carried out. The part of polymorphous loci (P), intraspecies genetic differentiation (genetic distances--DN) were higher in domestic plants in comparison with wild ones (P = 45%, 17%: DN = 0.038-0.269, 0.059-0129). The preferable polymorphism of loci, coding the enzymes of glycolysis and Kreb's cycle was revealed in wild species. Domestic soybean had more polymorphous enzyme loci, which did not participate in glucose metabolism in comparison with wild species. The presence of the specific part of the gene pool in ancestor species, which was involved in soybean domestication and forming of varieties was discussed.

Genetic Diversity and Variation Among Botanical Varieties of Old Portuguese Wheat Cultivars Revealed by ISSR Assays

Inter-simple sequence repeats (ISSRs) were used for genetic diversity analyses of an Old Portuguese wheat collection. Eighteen primers produced 96.3 and 98.5% of ISSR polymorphism in bread and durum wheat cultivars, respectively. The unweighted pair group method with arithmetical averages (UPGMA) phenogram clearly split all cultivars based on their species/ploidy, reflecting a defined genetic structure. ISSRs revealed high genetic diversity at interspecific, intraspecific, and intercultivar levels. Thirty-three exclusive ISSR markers were found. Cultivars were clustered according to their botanical varieties and, in a few cases, with their homonym(s). No statistically significant differences were found between genetic diversity parameters of durum and bread wheat, probably due to high intraspecific diversity. Similar analyses were performed among botanical varieties, and their relationships were defined. Cladograms resembled UPGMA clustering. This highly genetically diverse Old wheat collection will be conserved and maintained, and it could be further used in breeding programs to widen the narrow genetic basis of modern wheat varieties and to avoid the loss of rare and unique alleles.
