S-RNase-based self-incompatibility (SI) is an intraspecific reproductive barrier to prevent self-fertilization found in many species of the Solanaceae, Plantaginaceae and Rosaceae. In this system, S-RNase and SLF/SFB (S-locus F-box) genes have been shown to control the pistil and pollen SI specificity, respectively. Recent studies have shown that the SLF functions as a substrate receptor of a SCF (Skp1/Cullin1/F-box)-type E3 ubiquitin ligase complex to target S-RNases in Solanaceae and Plantaginaceae, but its role in Rosaceae remains largely undefined. Here we report the identification of two pollen-specific SLF-interacting Skp1-like (SSK) proteins, PbSSK1 and PbSSK2, in Pyrus bretschneideri from the tribe Pyreae of Rosaceae. Both yeast two-hybrid and pull-down assays demonstrated that they could connect PbSLFs to PbCUL1 to form a putative canonical SCFSLF (SSK/CUL1/SLF) complex in Pyrus. Furthermore, pull-down assays showed that the SSK proteins could bind SLF and CUL1 in a cross-species manner between Pyrus and Petunia. Additionally, phylogenetic analysis revealed that the SSK-like proteins from Solanaceae, Plantaginaceae and Rosaceae form a monoclade group, hinting their shared evolutionary origin. Taken together, with the recent identification of a canonical SCFSFB complex in Prunus of the tribe Amygdaleae of Rosaceae, our results show that a conserved canonical SCFSLF/SFB complex is present in Solanaceae, Plantaginaceae and Rosaceae, implying that S-RNase-based self-incompatibility shares a similar molecular and biochemical mechanism. 相似文献

The chloroplast genome of Pyrus was found to be 159,922?bp in length which included a pair of inverted repeats (IRs) of 26,392?bp, separated by a small single-copy region of 19,237?bp and a large single-copy region (LSC) of 87,901?bp. A total of 130 predicted genes (113 unique genes and 17 genes, which were duplicated in the IR) including 79 protein-coding genes, four ribosomal RNA genes and 30 tRNA genes were identified based on similarity to homologs from the chloroplast genome of Nicotiana tabacum. Genome organization was very similar to the inferred ancestral angiosperm chloroplast genome. Comparisons between Pyrus, Malus, and Prunus in Rosaceae revealed 220 indels (??10?bp). Excluding ycf1 and ycf2, which contained deletions in the coding region, all of these were detected in the spacer or intron regions. Three insertions and 13 deletions were detected in Pyrus compared to the same loci in Malus and Prunus. After comparing 89 noncoding chloroplast DNA regions in Pyrus and Malus, highly variable regions such as ndhC-trnV and trnR-atpA were identified. In Pyrus and Malus, the IR/LSC borders were 62?bp shorter than those of Prunus. In addition, there were length mutations at the IRa/LSC junction and in trnH. A total of 67 simple sequence repeats (more than 10 repeated motifs) were identified in the Pyrus chloroplast genome. The indels and simple sequence repeats will be useful evolutionary tools at both intra- and interspecific levels. Phylogenetic analysis demonstrated a close relationship between Pyrus and Prunus in the Rosaceae. 相似文献

Loquat [Eriobotrya japonica (Thunb.) Lindl.] is a Rosaceae fruit species of growing interest as an alternative to the main fruit crops. However, only
a few genetic studies have been carried out on this species. This paper reports the construction of the first genetic maps
of two loquat cultivars based on AFLP and microsatellite markers from Malus, Eriobotrya, Pyrus and Prunus genera. An F1 population consisting of 81 individuals, derived from the cross between ‘Algerie’ and ‘Zaozhong-6’ cultivars, was used to
construct both maps. A total of 111 scorable simple sequence repeat (SSR) loci resulted from the testing of 440 SSR primer
pairs in the analyzed progeny and the SSR transferability to Eriobotrya was found to be 74% from apple, 58% from pear and 49% from Prunus spp. In addition, 183 AFLP polymorphic bands were produced using 42 primer combinations. The ‘Algerie’ map was organized
in 17 linkage groups covering a distance of 900 cM and comprising 177 loci (83 SSRs and 94 AFLPs) with an average marker distance
of 5.1 cM. Self-incompatibility trait was mapped at the distal part of the LG17 linkage group, as previously reported in Malus and Pyrus. The ‘Zaozhong-6’ map covered 870 cM comprising 146 loci (64 SSRs and 82 AFLPs) with an average marker distance of 5.9 cM.
The 44 SSRs and the 48 AFLPs share in common by both maps were essentially collinear and, moreover, the order of the 75% of
apple and pear SSRs mapped in Eriobotrya was shown to be consistent across the Maloideae subfamily. As a whole, these maps represent a useful tool to facilitate loquat
breeding and an interesting framework for map comparison in the Rosaceae. 相似文献

S-RNase-based gametophytic self-incompatibility (GSI) has evolved once before the split of the Asteridae and Rosidae. This conclusion is based on the phylogenetic history of the S-RNase that determines pistil specificity. In Rosaceae, molecular characterizations of Prunus species, and species from the tribe Pyreae (i.e., Malus, Pyrus, Sorbus) revealed different numbers of genes determining S-pollen specificity. In Prunus only one pistil and pollen gene determine GSI, while in Pyreae there is one pistil but multiple pollen genes, implying different specificity recognition mechanisms. It is thus conceivable that within Rosaceae the genes involved in GSI in the two lineages are not orthologous but possibly paralogous. To address this hypothesis we characterised the S-RNase lineage and S-pollen lineage genes present in the genomes of five Rosaceae species from three genera: M. × domestica (apple, self-incompatible (SI); tribe Pyreae), P. persica (peach, self-compatible (SC); Amygdaleae), P. mume (mei, SI; Amygdaleae), Fragaria vesca (strawberry, SC; Potentilleae), and F. nipponica (mori-ichigo, SI; Potentilleae). Phylogenetic analyses revealed that the Malus and Prunus S-RNase and S-pollen genes belong to distinct gene lineages, and that only Prunus S-RNase and SFB-lineage genes are present in Fragaria. Thus, S-RNase based GSI system of Malus evolved independently from the ancestral system of Rosaceae. Using expression patterns based on RNA-seq data, the ancestral S-RNase lineage gene is inferred to be expressed in pistils only, while the ancestral S-pollen lineage gene is inferred to be expressed in tissues other than pollen. 相似文献

Self-incompatibility (SI), an important barrier to inbreeding in flowering plants, is controlled in many species by a single
polymorphic S-locus. In the Solanaceae, two tightly linked S-locus genes, S-RNase and SLF (S-locus F-box)/SFB (S-haplotype-specific F-box), control SI expression in pistil and pollen, respectively. The pollen S-determinant appears to function to inhibit all but self S-RNase in the Solanaceae, but its genetic function in the closely-related
Plantaginaceae remains equivocal. We have employed transposon mutagenesis in a member of the Plantaginaceae (Antirrhinum) to generate a pollen-part SI-breakdown mutant Pma1 (Pollen-part mutation in Antirrhinum1). Molecular genetic analyses showed that an extra telocentric chromosome containing AhSLF-S
1
is present in its self-compatible but not in its SI progeny. Furthermore, analysis of the effects of selection revealed positive
selection acting on both SLFs and SFBs, but with a stronger purifying selection on SLFs. Taken together, our results suggest an inhibitor role of the pollen S in the Plantaginaceae (as represented by Antirrhinum), similar to that found in the Solanaceae. The implication of these findings is discussed in the context of S-locus evolution in flowering plants.

We have developed 46 primer pairs from exon sequences flanking polymorphic introns of 23 Fragaria gene sequences and one Malus sequence deposited in the EMBL database. Sequencing of a set of the PCR products amplified with the novel primer pairs in
diploid Fragaria showed the products to be homologous to the sequences from which the primers were originally designed. By scoring the segregation
of the 24 genes in two diploid Fragaria progenies FV × FN (F. vesca × F. nubicola F2) and 815 × 903BC (F. vesca × F. viridis BC1) 29 genetic loci at discrete positions on the seven linkage groups previously characterised could be mapped, bringing to
35 the total number of known function genes mapped in Fragaria. Twenty primer pairs, representing 14 genes, amplified a product of the expected size in both Malus and Prunus. To demonstrate the applicability of these gene-specific loci to comparative mapping in Rosaceae, five markers that displayed
clear polymorphism between the parents of a Malus and a Prunus mapping population were selected. The markers were then scored and mapped in at least one of the two additional progenies. 相似文献

Simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers developed from Malus, as well as Prunus, Pyrus and Sorbus, and some other sequence-tagged site (STS) loci were analysed in an interspecific F1 apple progeny from the cross ‘Fiesta’ × ‘Totem’ that segregated for several agronomic characters. A linkage map was constructed
using 259 STS loci (247 SSRs, four SCARs and eight known-function genes) and five genes for agronomic traits—scab resistance
(Vf), mildew resistance (Pl-2), columnar growth habit (Co), red tissues (Rt) and green flesh background colour (Gfc). Ninety SSR loci and three genes (ETR1, Rt and Gfc) were mapped for the first time in apple. The transferability of markers from other Maloideae to Malus was found to be around 44%. The loci are spread across 17 linkage groups, corresponding to the basic chromosome number of
Malus and cover 1,208 cM, approximately 85% of the estimated length of the apple genome. Interestingly, we have extended the top
of LG15 with eight markers covering 25 cM. The average map density is 4.7 cM per marker; however, marker density varies greatly
between linkage groups, from 2.5 in LG14 to 8.9 in LG7, with some areas of the genome still in need of further STS markers
for saturation.

Apple S locus region represents a large cluster of related, polymorphic and pollen-specific F-box genes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Gametophytic self-incompatibility (GSI) of Rosaceae, Solanaceae and Plantaginaceae is controlled by a complex S locus that encodes separate proteins for pistil and pollen specificities, extracellular ribonucleases (S-RNases) and F-box proteins SFB/SLF, respectively. SFB/SLFs of Prunus (subfamily Prunoideae of Rosaceae), Solanaceae and Plantaginaceae are single copy in each S haplotype, while recently identified pollen S candidates SFBBs of subfamily Maloideae of Rosaceae, apple and Japanese pear, are multiple; two and three related SFBBs were isolated from each S haplotype of apple and Japanese pear, respectively. Here, we show that apple (Malus × domestica) SFBBs constitute a gene family that is much larger than initially thought. Twenty additional SFBB-like genes/alleles were isolated by screening of a BAC library derived from S 3 S 9 genotype, and tentatively named MdFBX1-20. All but one MdFBX showed S haplotype-specific polymorphisms. All the polymorphic MdFBXs were completely linked to S-RNase in 239 segregants. In addition, FISH revealed that the monomorphic gene MdFBX11 is also located near S-RNase, and the S locus is located in a subtelomeric region of a chromosome and is not close to the centromere. All MdFBXs were specifically expressed in pollen, except for a pseudogene MdFBX4 that showed no expression in any organs analyzed. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that the closest relatives of most MdFBXs were from a different S haplotype, suggesting that proliferation of MdSFBB/FBXs predates diversification of the S haplotypes. 相似文献

S-RNase-based self-incompatibility in Petunia inflata 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Background
For the Solanaceae-type self-incompatibility, also possessed by Rosaceae and Plantaginaceae, the specificity of self/non-self interactions between pollen and pistil is controlled by two polymorphic genes at the S-locus: the S-locus F-box gene (SLF or SFB) controls pollen specificity and the S-RNase gene controls pistil specificity.Scope
This review focuses on the work from the authors'' laboratory using Petunia inflata (Solanaceae) as a model. Here, recent results on the identification and functional studies of S-RNase and SLF are summarized and a protein-degradation model is proposed to explain the biochemical mechanism for specific rejection of self-pollen tubes by the pistil.Conclusions
The protein-degradation model invokes specific degradation of non-self S-RNases in the pollen tube mediated by an SLF, and can explain compatible versus incompatible pollination and the phenomenon of competitive interaction, where SI breaks down in pollen carrying two different S-alleles. In Solanaceae, Plantaginaceae and subfamily Maloideae of Rosaceae, there also exist multiple S-locus-linked SLF/SFB-like genes that potentially function as the pollen S-gene. To date, only three such genes, all in P. inflata, have been examined, and they do not function as the pollen S-gene in the S-genotype backgrounds tested. Interestingly, subfamily Prunoideae of Rosaceae appears to possess only a single SLF/SFB gene, and competitive interaction, observed in Solanaceae, Plantaginaceae and subfamily Maloideae, has not been observed. Thus, although the cytotoxic function of S-RNase is an integral part of SI in Solanaceae, Plantaginaceae and Rosaceae, the function of SLF/SFB may have diverged. This highlights the complexity of the S-RNase-based SI mechanism. The review concludes by discussing some key experiments that will further advance our understanding of this self/non-self discrimination mechanism. 相似文献10.

The Rosaceae contains many economically valuable crop genera, including Malus (apple), Fragaria (strawberry), and Prunus (stone fruit). There has been increasing interest in the development of linkage maps for these species, with a view to marker-assisted
selection to assist breeding programs and, recently, in the development of transferable markers to permit syntenic comparisons
of maps of different rosaceous genera. In this investigation, a set of Malus cDNA sequences were downloaded from the European Molecular Biology Laboratory database. The sequences were aligned with homologous
full-length Arabidopsis genomic DNA sequences to identify putative intron–exon junctions and conserved flanking exon sequences. Primer pairs were
designed from the conserved exon sequences flanking predicted intron–exon junctions in the Malus cDNA sequences. These were used to amplify products by polymerase chain reaction from the parents of the Malus mapping progeny “Fiesta” × “Totem.” Eleven loci, representing ten genes (39%), were polymorphic in the “Fiesta” × “Totem”
population and mapped to seven Malus linkage groups. Transferability to other rosaceous genera was high, with primer pairs representing 85% of genes, amplifying
products from Fragaria and primer pairs representing 85% of genes, amplifying products from Prunus genomic DNA. These primers were screened in the Fragaria and Prunus mapping bin sets and 38% of the genes were successfully located on both maps. Analysis of the markers mapped in more than
one rosaceous genus revealed patterns of synteny between genera, while a comparison with the physical positions of homologous
genes on the Arabidopsis genome revealed high sequence conservation but only fragmentary patterns of macrosynteny. 相似文献

The gene SFB encodes an F-box protein that has appropriate S-haplotype-specific variation to be the pollen determinant in the S-RNase-based gametophytic self-incompatibility (GSI) reaction in Prunus (Rosaceae). To further characterize Prunus SFB, we cloned and sequenced four additional alleles from sweet cherry (P. avium), SFB

, SFB

, and SFB

. These four alleles showed haplotype-specific sequence diversity similar to the other nine SFB alleles that have been cloned. In an amino acid alignment of Prunus SFBs, including the four newly cloned alleles, 121 out of the 384 sites were conserved and an additional 65 sites had only conservative replacements. Amino acid identity among the SFBs ranged from 66.0% to 82.5%. Based on normed variability indices (NVI), 34 of the non-conserved sites were considered to be highly variable. Most of the variable sites were located at the C-terminal region. A window-averaged plot of NVI indicated that there were two variable and two hypervariable regions. These variable and hypervariable regions appeared to be hydrophilic or at least not strongly hydrophobic, which suggests that these regions may be exposed on the surface and function in the allele specificity of the GSI reaction. Evidence of positive selection was detected using maximum likelihood methods with sites under positive selection concentrated in the variable and hypervariable regions.K. Ikeda and B.

Pollen-expressed F-box gene family and mechanism of S-RNase-based gametophytic self-incompatibility (GSI) in Rosaceae 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Many species of Rosaceae, Solanaceae, and Plantaginaceae exhibit S-RNase-based self-incompatibility (SI) in which pistil-part
specificity is controlled by S locus-encoded ribonuclease (S-RNase). Although recent findings revealed that S locus-encoded F-box protein, SLF/SFB, determines pollen-part specificity, how these pistil- and pollen-part S locus products interact in vivo and elicit the SI reaction is largely unclear. Furthermore, genetic studies suggested that
pollen S function can differ among species. In Solanaceae and the rosaceous subfamily Maloideae (e.g., apple and pear), the coexistence
of two different pollen S alleles in a pollen breaks down SI of the pollen, a phenomenon known as competitive interaction. However, competitive interaction
seems not to occur in the subfamily Prunoideae (e.g., cherry and almond) of Rosaceae. Furthermore, the effect of the deletion
of pollen S seems to vary among taxa. This review focuses on the potential differences in pollen-part function between subfamilies of
Rosaceae, Maloideae, and Prunoideae, and discusses implications for the mechanistic divergence of the S-RNase-based SI. 相似文献

Pear (Pyrus sp.) is a major fruit crop of temperate regions with increasing extent of cultivation. Pear flavonoids contribute to its fruit
color, pathogen defense, and are health beneficial ingredients of the fruits. Comparative Southern analyses with apple (Malus x domestica) cDNAs showed comparable genomic organization of flavonoid genes of both related genera. A homology-based cloning approach
was used to obtain the cDNAs of most enzymes of the main flavonoid pathway of Pyrus: phenylalanine ammonia lyase, chalcone synthase, chalcone isomerase, flavanone 3β-hydroxylase, flavonol synthase, dihydroflavonol
4-reductase, leucoanthocyanidin reductase 1 and 2, anthocyanidin synthase, anthocyanidin reductase, and UDP-glucose : flavonoid
7-O-glucosyltransferase. The substrate specificities of the recombinant enzymes expressed in yeast were determined for physiological
and non-physiological substrates and found to be in general agreement with the characteristic pear flavonoid metabolite pattern
of mainly B-ring dihydroxylated anthocyanins, flavonols, catechins, and flavanones. Furthermore, significant differences in
substrate specificities and gene copy numbers in comparison to Malus were identified. Cloning of the cDNAs and studying the enzymes of the Pyrus flavonoid pathway is an essential task toward a comprehensive knowledge of Pyrus polyphenol metabolism. It also elucidates evolutionary patterns of flavonoid/polyphenol pathways in the Rosaceae, which allocate
several important crop plants. 相似文献

Self‐incompatibility (SI) is a self/non‐self discrimination system found widely in angiosperms and, in many species, is controlled by a single polymorphic S‐locus. In the Solanaceae, Rosaceae and Plantaginaceae, the S‐locus encodes a single S‐RNase and a cluster of S‐locus F‐box (SLF) proteins to control the pistil and pollen expression of SI, respectively. Previous studies have shown that their cytosolic interactions determine their recognition specificity, but the physical force between their interactions remains unclear. In this study, we show that the electrostatic potentials of SLF contribute to the pollen S specificity through a physical mechanism of ‘like charges repel and unlike charges attract’ between SLFs and S‐RNases in Petunia hybrida. Strikingly, the alteration of a single C‐terminal amino acid of SLF reversed its surface electrostatic potentials and subsequently the pollen S specificity. Collectively, our results reveal that the electrostatic potentials act as a major physical force between cytosolic SLFs and S‐RNases, providing a mechanistic insight into the self/non‐self discrimination between cytosolic proteins in angiosperms. 相似文献

Multiple independent recruitments of the S-pollen component (always an F-box gene) during RNase-based gametophytic self-incompatibility evolution have recently been suggested. Therefore, different mechanisms could be
used to achieve the rejection of incompatible pollen in different plant families. This hypothesis is, however, mainly based
on the interpretation of phylogenetic analyses, using a small number of divergent nucleotide sequences. In this work we show,
based on a large collection of F-box S-like sequences, that the inferred relationship of F-box S-pollen and F-box S-like sequences is dependent on the sequence alignment software and phylogenetic method used. Thus, at present, it is not
possible to address the phylogenetic relationship of F-box S-pollen and S-like sequences from different plant families. In Petunia and Malus/Pyrus the putative S-pollen gene(s) show(s) variability patterns different than expected for an S-pollen gene, raising the question of false identification. Here we show that in Petunia, the unexpected features of the putative S-pollen gene are not incompatible with this gene’s being the S-pollen gene. On the other hand, it is very unlikely that the Pyrus SFBB-gamma gene is involved in specificity determination.

Characterization of SLFL1, a pollen-expressed F-box gene located in the Prunus
S locus 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The S locus and its flanking regions in the genus Prunus (Rosaceae) contain four pollen-expressed F-box genes. These genes contain the S locus F-box genes with low allelic sequence polymorphism genes 1, 2, and 3 (SLFL1, SLFL2, and SLFL3) as well as the putative pollen S gene, named the S haplotype-specific F-box protein gene (SFB). As much less information is available on the function of SLFLs than that of SFB, we analyzed the SLFLs of six S haplotypes of sweet cherry (Prunus avium) in this study. Genomic DNA blot analysis and the isolation of SLFL1 showed that the SLFL1 gene in a functional self-incompatible S
3
haplotype is deleted and only a partial sequence resembling SLFL1 is left in the S
3
locus region, suggesting that SLFL1 by itself is not directly involved in either the GSI reaction or pollen-tube growth. Genomic DNA blot analysis showed that
there was no substantial modification or mutation in SLFL2 and SLFL3. A phylogenic analysis of F-box genes in the rosaceous S locus and its border regions showed that Prunus SLFLs were more closely related to maloid S locus F-box brothers than to Prunus SFBs. The functions of SLFLs and the evolution of self-incompatibility in Prunus are discussed based on these results.

Flowers of 169 species of Rosaceae subfamily Maloideae, which were chosen to represent the taxonomic and geographic diversity of the group, were studied to ascertain their morphological variation and its systematic relevance. We describe and illustrate variation in size, indumentum, color, and macroscopic structural features. Most maloid species have syncarpous flowers with two to five carpels in which the ovary is at least three-quarters inferior, whereas species of other Rosaceae subfamilies have apocarpous or unicarpellate flowers with superior ovaries. However, maloid flowers show significant variation in the degree of carpel connation and of ovary adnation to the hypanthium. Cotoneaster, Heteromeles, and Pyracantha are completely apocarpous, and Dichotomanthes is perigynous with a completely superior ovary. Thus, no one floral character is sufficient to separate the Maloideae from other subfamilies of Rosaceae. Differences among their flowers support our recognition of Malus, Pyrus, and Sorbus as separate genera. Further, we argue for removal of Docyniopsis and Eriolobus from Malus, division of Sorbus into several genera, and union of Aronia, Photinia, and Stranvaesia. No floral characters support the traditional dichotomy of the subfamily into tribes Crataegeae and Sorbeae. 相似文献

A list of non-native phytophagous insects and mites on woody plants (trees, shrubs, vines) in Canada was compiled using information
from literature and input from taxonomists. The 419 recorded species include Hemiptera (53% of species), Lepidoptera (22%),
Coleoptera (13%) and Hymenoptera (9%). Almost all species originate from the Palearctic, especially Europe, reflecting historical
trade patterns. About 41% of species were directly introduced to Canada from countries of origin, and the remainder spread
from the United States of America (USA) after initial establishment there. Major ports on the east and west coasts, on Lake
Erie and Lake Ontario are the main points of entry for exotic species directly introduced, and southern British Columbia (BC),
Ontario (ON) and Quebec (QC) are the major points of entry for species spreading from the USA. Consequently, BC, ON, QC and
Nova Scotia have the highest diversity of non-native species, and the prairie provinces and northern territories have the
lowest. The extent of the distribution of individual species is related to length of time in Canada, number of introductions
and dispersal abilities. Almost all native woody plant genera in Canada have been invaded by exotic phytophages. The large
majority of phytophages occur on angiosperms. Woody plant genera with the largest distribution, highest species diversity
and highest local abundances tend to host the greatest number of non-native species, including Picea, Pinus, Malus, Prunus, Salix, Betula, Quercus, Pyrus and Populus. The arrival rate of species in Canada increased from the late nineteenth century until about 1960, and declined rapidly
thereafter. Quarantine legislation enacted in the USA in 1912 and in Canada in 1976 seems to have reduced the rate of insect
invasion.
