Identification of RAPD markers linked to the loci controlling erucic acid level in rapeseed

The recent development of the industrial use of rapeseed oil rich in erucic acid has led to increased interest in the improvement of the high-erucic-acid (50–60%) varieties and to research towards genotypes containing a very high erucic acid content. This trait is controlled by two genes with additive effects. The low-erucic-acid trait was relatively easily introduced through backcrosses into various backgrounds because the zero-erucic-acid homozygotes were clearly identified in the segregating populations. To select for high erucic acid level is more difficult because of the partial overlap of the high-erucic-acid homozygous class and the intermediate one, containing heterozygotes. In order to help conventional breeding, RAPD markers were used to map the two genes involved in determining the erucic acid content in a doubled haploid progeny derived from a low x high erucic acid F1 hybrid. The two genes were successfully localized in two independent linkage group, through a QTL approach. A close association was found between individual plant genotypes and the erucic acid content of the doubled haploid progeny, and it was shown that the two genes do not contribute uniformly to the C22:1 level. The value of molecular gene mapping of such a trait in a conventional breeding programme is discussed.Abbreviations BSA bulked segregant analysis - DH doubled haploid - NIL near-isogenic lines - QTL quantitative trait locus - C22:1 erucic acid - TAG triacyl glycerol - SCAR sequence characterized amplified region     

Increasing erucic acid content through combination of endogenous low polyunsaturated fatty acids alleles with Ld-LPAAT + Bn-fae1 transgenes in rapeseed (Brassica napus L.)

High erucic acid rapeseed (HEAR) oil is of interest for industrial purposes because erucic acid (22:1) and its derivatives are important renewable raw materials for the oleochemical industry. Currently available cultivars contain only about 50% erucic acid in the seed oil. A substantial increase in erucic acid content would significantly reduce processing costs and could increase market prospects of HEAR oil. It has been proposed that erucic acid content in rapeseed is limited because of insufficient fatty acid elongation, lack of insertion of erucic acid into the central sn-2 position of the triaclyglycerol backbone and due to competitive desaturation of the precursor oleic acid (18:1) to linoleic acid (18:2). The objective of the present study was to increase erucic content of HEAR winter rapeseed through over expression of the rapeseed fatty acid elongase gene (fae1) in combination with expression of the lysophosphatidic acid acyltransferase gene from Limnanthes douglasii (Ld-LPAAT), which enables insertion of erucic acid into the sn-2 glycerol position. Furthermore, mutant alleles for low contents of polyunsaturated fatty acids (18:2 + 18:3) were combined with the transgenic material. Selected transgenic lines showed up to 63% erucic acid in the seed oil in comparison to a mean of 54% erucic acid of segregating non-transgenic HEAR plants. Amongst 220 F₂ plants derived from the cross between a transgenic HEAR line and a non-transgenic HEAR line with a low content of polyunsaturated fatty acids, recombinant F₂ plants were identified with an erucic acid content of up to 72% and a polyunsaturated fatty acid content as low as 6%. Regression analysis revealed that a reduction of 10% in polyunsaturated fatty acids content led to a 6.5% increase in erucic acid content. Results from selected F₂ plants were confirmed in the next generation by analysing F₄ seeds harvested from five F₃ plants per selected F₂ plant. F₃ lines contained up to 72% erucic acid and as little as 4% polyunsaturated fatty acids content in the seed oil. The 72% erucic acid content of rapeseed oil achieved in the present study represents a major breakthrough in breeding high erucic acid rapeseed.     

Analysis of QTLs for erucic acid and oil content in seeds on A8 chromosome and the linkage drag between the alleles for the two traits in Brassica napus

The history of canola breeding began with the discovery of germplasm with low erucic acid content in seeds of spring forage cultivar in tbe 1950's.FAEI,mutations led to a dramatic decrease of the seed erucic acid content in Arabidopsis thaliana.The products of the two FAEI loci.BnA8.FAEI and BnC3.FAEI,showed additive effects to the level of erucic acid content in oilseed rape.Previous research believed that the pleiotropy of FAEI was responsible for the decrease in seed oil content along with the reduction of seed erucic acid content in the modern cultivars.TN DH population was developed from a canola cultivar Tapidor and a Chinese traditional cultivar Ningyou7.The population had been tested in 10 and 11 environments to map QTLs for the erucic acid content and oil content in seeds.As the map resolution increased,a novel QTL for seed erucic acid content was revealed,after Meta-analysis,7 cM away from the most significant seed erucic acid content QTL where BnA8.FAEI is located.Seven independent QTLs for seed oil content(qOC) were detected around the two seed erucic acid content QTLs(qEA)across 39.20 cM on linkage group A8.Two of the qOCs co-localized with the two qEAs,respectively,and were detected in a single environment.The otherfive qOCs were detected in 10 of ll environments independent of qEAs.Alleles from Tapidor in all the QTLs at the 0-39.20 cM region contributed negative effects to either erucic acid content or oil content in seeds.Parallel,genocontent source.Through rounds of crossbreeding with oil-cropped cultivars and intensive selection for multi generations,Tapidor still had the controlled by the five qEA-independent qOCs,with low seed erucic acid content.Ninety cultivars of B.napus from 8 countries were used to analyze the genetic drag with 9 molecular markers located in the QTL confidence intervals (24.04cM) on linkage group A8.It was noticed that more than 46% of the cultivars with low seed erucic acid content trait remained the genotype of low seed oil content at least in one locus.Backcross and marker-assisted selection could break the genetic drag between the low oil content and erucic acid in seeds in the process for breeding modern high seed oil content canola cultivars.     

Analysis of QTLs for emcic acid and oil content in seeds on A8 chro- mosome and the linkage drag between the alleles for the two traits in Brassica napus

The history of canola breeding began with the discovery of germplasm with low erucic acid content in seeds of spring forage cultivar in the 1950's. FAE1 mutations led to a dramatic decrease of the seed erucic acid content in Arabidopsis thaliana. The products of the two FAE1 loci, BnA8.FAE1 and BnC3.FAE1, showed additive effects to the level of erucic acid content in oilseed rape. Previous research believed that the pleiotropy of FAE1 was responsible for the decrease in seed oil content along with the reduction of seed erucic acid content in the modern cultivars. TN DH population was developed from a canola cultivar Tapidor and a Chinese traditional cultivar Ningyou7. The population had been tested in 10 and 11 environments to map QTLs for the erucic acid content and oil content in seeds. As the map resolution increased, a novel QTL for seed erucic acid content was revealed, after Meta-analysis, 7 cM away from the most significant seed erucic acid content QTL where BnA8.FAE1 is located. Seven independent QTLs for seed oil content (qOC) were detected around the two seed erucic acid content QTLs (qEA) across 39.20 cM on linkage group A8. Two of the qOCs co-localized with the two qEAs, respectively, and were detected in a single environment. The other five qOCs were detected in 10 of 11 environments independent of qEAs. Alleles from Tapidor in all the QTLs at the 0–39.20 cM region contributed negative effects to either erucic acid content or oil content in seeds. Parallel, genotyping showed that on 5 of the 7 QTLs regions, Tapidor alleles had the same genotypes with that in ‘Liho’, the original low seed erucic acid content source. Through rounds of crossbreeding with oil-cropped cultivars and intensive selection for multi generations, Tapidor still had the inferior alleles for low seed oil content from ‘Liho’, the forage rape. This showed a strong linkage drag of low seed oil content, which was controlled by the five qEA-independent qOCs, with low seed erucic acid content. Ninety cultivars of B. napus from 8 countries were used to analyze the genetic drag with 9 molecular markers located in the QTL confidence intervals (24.04 cM) on linkage group A8. It was noticed that more than 46% of the cultivars with low seed erucic acid content trait remained the genotype of low seed oil content at least in one locus. Backcross and marker-assisted selection could break the genetic drag between the low oil content and erucic acid in seeds in the process for breeding modern high seed oil content canola cultivars.     

QTL for phytosterol and sinapate ester content in <Emphasis Type="Italic">Brassica napus</Emphasis> L. collocate with the two erucic acid genes

Improving oil and protein quality for food and feed purposes is an important goal in rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) breeding programs. Rapeseed contains phytosterols, used to enrich food products, and sinapate esters, which are limiting the utilization of rapeseed proteins in the feed industry. Increasing the phytosterol content of oil and lowering sinapate ester content of meal could increase the value of the oilseed rape crop. The objective of the present study was to identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) for phytosterol and sinapate ester content in a winter rapeseed population of 148 doubled haploid lines, previously found to have a large variation for these two traits. This population also segregated for the two erucic acid genes. A close negative correlation was found between erucic acid and phytosterol content (Spearman’s rank correlation, r _s = −0.80^**). For total phytosterol content, three QTL were detected, explaining 60% of the genetic variance. The two QTL with the strongest additive effects were mapped on linkage groups N8 and N13 within the confidence intervals of the two erucic acid genes. For sinapate ester content four QTL were detected, explaining 53% of the genetic variance. Again, a close negative correlation was found between erucic acid and sinapate ester content (r _s = −0.66^**) and the QTL with the strongest additive effects mapped on linkage groups N8 and N13 within the confidence intervals of the two erucic acid genes. The results suggests, that there is a pleiotropic effect of the two erucic acid genes on phytosterol and sinapate ester content; the effect of the alleles for low erucic acid content is to increase phytosterol and sinapate ester content. Possible reasons for this are discussed based on known biosynthetic pathways.

Association of gene-linked SSR markers to seed glucosinolate content in oilseed rape (Brassica napus ssp. napus)

Breeding of oilseed rape (Brassica napus ssp. napus) has evoked a strong bottleneck selection towards double-low (00) seed quality with zero erucic acid and low seed glucosinolate content. The resulting reduction of genetic variability in elite 00-quality oilseed rape is particularly relevant with regard to the development of genetically diverse heterotic pools for hybrid breeding. In contrast, B. napus genotypes containing high levels of erucic acid and seed glucosinolates (++ quality) represent a comparatively genetically divergent source of germplasm. Seed glucosinolate content is a complex quantitative trait, however, meaning that the introgression of novel germplasm from this gene pool requires recurrent backcrossing to avoid linkage drag for high glucosinolate content. Molecular markers for key low-glucosinolate alleles could potentially improve the selection process. The aim of this study was to identify potentially gene-linked markers for important seed glucosinolate loci via structure-based allele-trait association studies in genetically diverse B. napus genotypes. The analyses included a set of new simple-sequence repeat (SSR) markers whose orthologs in Arabidopsis thaliana are physically closely linked to promising candidate genes for glucosinolate biosynthesis. We found evidence that four genes involved in the biosynthesis of indole, aliphatic and aromatic glucosinolates might be associated with known quantitative trait loci for total seed glucosinolate content in B. napus. Markers linked to homoeologous loci of these genes in the paleopolyploid B. napus genome were found to be associated with a significant effect on the seed glucosinolate content. This example shows the potential of Arabidopsis-Brassica comparative genome analysis for synteny-based identification of gene-linked SSR markers that can potentially be used in marker-assisted selection for an important trait in oilseed rape.

Inheritance and variation of erucic acid content in a transgenic rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) doubled haploid population

Erucic acid (22:1) is a valuable renewable resource for the oleochemical industry. Currently available high erucic acid rapeseed cultivars contain only about 50% erucic acid in the seed oil. A substantial increase of the erucic acid content of the rapeseed oil could increase market prospects. The transgenic line TNKAT, over expressing the rapeseed fatty acid elongase gene (fae1) and expressing the Ld-LPAAT gene from Limnanthes douglasii was crossed with the line 6575-1 HELP (high erucic and low polyunsaturated fatty acid). A from the F₁ plants produced population of 90 doubled haploid (DH) lines was tested in a greenhouse with three replicates. Parental lines TNKAT and 6575-1 HELP contained 46 and 50% erucic acid in the seed oil, respectively. In the DH population the erucic acid content ranged between 35 and 59%. The Ld-LPAAT + Bn-fae1.1 transgene showed a 1:1 segregation. The transgenic DH lines contained up to 8% trierucolyglycerol, but surprisingly had a by 2.3% lower erucic acid content compared to the non-transgenic segregants. Results indicated that the ectopically expressed fae1.1 gene may not be functional. The DH population also showed a large quantitative variation for PUFA content ranging from 6 to 28% (TNKAT: 21%, 6575-1 HELP: 8%). Regression analysis showed that in the DH population a 10% reduction in PUFA content led to a 4.2% increase in erucic acid content. Development of locus specific PCR primers for the two resident erucic acid genes fae1.1 (A-genome) and fae1.2 genes (C-genome) of rapeseed allowed sequencing of the respective alleles from TNKAT and 6575-1 HELP. Single nucleotide polymorphisms were only found for the fae1.1 gene. Use of allele specific fae1.1 PCR primers, however, did not reveal a significant effect of the fae1.1 allele from either parent on erucic acid content. The high erucic acid low polyunsaturated fatty acid DH lines and the fae1 locus specific primers developed in the present study should be useful in future studies aimed at increasing erucic acid content in rapeseed.     

The impact of reducing fatty acid desaturation on the composition and thermal stability of rapeseed oil

Oilseed rape (Brassica napus) is the third largest source of vegetable oil globally. In addition to food uses, there are industrial applications that exploit the ability of the species to accumulate the very‐long‐chain fatty acid (VLCFA) erucic acid in its seed oil, controlled by orthologues of FATTY ACID ELONGASE 1 (Bna.FAE1.A8 and Bna.FAE1.C3). The proportion of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) in rapeseed oil is predicted to affect its thermal stability and is controlled by orthologues of FATTY ACID DESATURASE 2, particularly Bna.FAD2.C5. Our aim was to develop rapeseed lines combining high erucic and low PUFA characters and to assess the impact on thermal stability of the oil they produce. The new type of rapeseed oil (high erucic low polyunsaturate; HELP) contained a substantially greater proportion of erucic acid (54%) compared with high erucic rapeseed oil (46%). Although the total VLCFA content was greater in oil from HELP lines (64%) than from high erucic rapeseed (57%), analysis of triacylglycerol composition showed negligible incorporation of VLCFAs into the sn‐2 position. Rancimat analysis showed that the thermal stability of rapeseed oil was improved greatly as a consequence of reduction of PUFA content, from 3.8 and 4.2 h in conventional low erucic and high erucic rapeseed oils, respectively, to 11.3 and 16.4 h in high oleic low PUFA (HOLP) and HELP oils, respectively. Our results demonstrate that engineering of the lipid biosynthetic pathway of rapeseed, using traditional approaches, enables the production of renewable industrial oils with novel composition and properties.
