A peach linkage map integrating RFLPs, SSRs, RAPDs, and morphological markers.

A linkage map was obtained using a BC1 progeny (Prunus persica x (P. persica x P ferganensis)). The map is composed of 109 loci (74 RFLPs, 17 SSRs, 16 RAPDs, and two morphological traits) distributed in 10 linkage groups. Loci, segregating in five different ratios, were integrated in the map with JoinMap 2.0 software. The map covers 521 cM of the peach genome. The average distance between adjacent loci is 4.8 cM. Two monogenic traits, flesh adhesion (F/f) and leaf glands (E/e), were placed on the map. Thirty-two loci in common with a saturated linkage map of Prunus allowed a comparative analysis to be made between the two maps. Homologies were found among the respective linkage groups. No relevant differences were observed in the linear order of the common loci.     

Genetic diversity for RFLPs in European maize inbreds

Summary Restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) have been proposed for the prediction of the yield potential of hybrids and the assignment of inbreds to heterotic groups. Such use was investigated in 66 diallel crosses among 6 flint and 6 dent inbreds from European maize (Zea mays L.) germ plasm. Inbreds and hybrids were evaluated for seven forage traits in four environments in the Federal Republic of Germany. Midparent heterosis (MPH) and specific combining ability (SCA) were calculated. Genetic distances (GD) between lines were calculated from RFLP data of 194 clone-enzyme combinations. GDs were greater for flint x dent than for flint x flint and dent x dent line combinations. Cluster analysis based on GDs showed separate groupings of flint and dent lines and agreed with pedigree information, except for 1 inbred. GDs of all line combinations in the diallel were partitioned into general (GGD) and specific (SGD) genetic distances; GGD explained approximately 20% of the variation among GD values. For the 62 diallel crosses (excluding 4 crosses of highly related lines), correlations of GD with F₁ performance, MPH, and SCA for dry matter yield (DMY) of stover, ear, and forage were positive but mostly of moderate size (0.09r0.60) compared with the higher correlations (0.39r0.77) of SGD with these traits. When separate calculations were performed for various subsets, correlations of GD and SGD with DMY traits were generally small (r<0.47) for the 36 flint x dent crosses, significantly positive (r<0.53) for the 14 flint x flint crosses, and inconclusive for the 12 dent x dent crosses because of the lack of significant genotypic variation. Results indicated that RFLPs can be used for assigning inbreds to heterotic groups. RFLP-based genetic distance measures seem to be useful for predicting forage yield of (1) crosses between lines from the same germ plasm group or (2) crosses including line combinations from the same as well as different heterotic groups. However, they are not indicative of the hybrid forage yield of crosses between unrelated lines from genetically divergent heterotic groups.     

Detection and inheritance of RFLPs in Eucalyptus nitens

The level of polymorphism using genomic and cDNA probes with a number of restriction enzymes and the inheritance of the RFLP loci was investigated in E. nitens. The polymorphism detected with 366 genomic and cDNA probes and three to six restriction enzymes was analysed in three-generation outbred pedigrees. No difference in the level of polymorphism detected with genomic versus cDNA probes was observed. There was a difference in the efficiency of detection of polymorphism with six different restriction enzymes, with three of the enzymes (BglII, DraI and EcoRI) showing substantially more polymorphism than the others. There was no significant correlation between the size of the DNA fragments generated by the enzymes and the detection of polymorphism. Several cases of restriction-site mutations resulting in a polymorphism were observed. The inheritance of 69 loci was analysed in two pedigrees resulting from interpopulational crosses. The majority of the loci segregated according to expected ratios with distortion observed in only 3% of loci. Probes from the cDNA library detected a greater proportion of loci with more than two alleles than did probes from the genomic library. The high polymorphism, large number of alleles, and ease of interpretation of RFLPs in E. nitens means that they will be useful in a range of applications such as genetic linkage maps and paternity analysis.     

Fingerprinting trifoliate orange germ plasm accessions with isozymes, RFLPs, and inter-simple sequence repeat markers

 Trifoliate orange [Poncirus trifoliata (L.) Raf.] is frequently used as a parent in citrus rootstock breeding, but the origin and amount of genetic diversity in germ plasm collections are poorly understood. Most accessions are self-compatible, but produce a mixture of sexual and apomictic seedlings. Variation among 48 vegetatively propagated trifoliate orange accessions was assessed at seven isozyme loci, together with the restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) detected by 38 probe-enzyme combinations and the inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers generated by 11 primers. Isozymes and RFLPs detected few polymorphisms among accessions, although genetic analysis has shown that the common phenotype is heterozygous for four isozyme and at least four RFLP loci. ISSR amplification generated multiple banding profiles with an average of 58 fragments/primer/accession. These fragments were repeatable across DNA samples extracted from different trees of the same accession or extracted at different times, and across separate PCR runs. Seventeen unique marker phenotypes were identified. The 48 trifoliate orange accessions were classified into four major groups based on polymorphic ISSR markers. All large-flowered accessions are in group 4, while small-flowered accessions are in group 3. Many ISSR markers segregated in progeny derived by open-pollination (probably mostly selfing) of a common accession, indicating that these ISSR markers are also heterozygous. Accessions having identical genotypes for a large number of heterozygous markers are unlikely to have diverged by recombination. Thus the limited divergence we detected among most accessions most likely originated by mutation. ‘Monoembryonic’ and ‘Simmons’ differed from other accessions only in the loss of specific markers, indicating that they originated as zygotic seedlings of individuals similar to the common genotype. Three accessions recently introduced from China have relatively different fingerprints with 3–14 unique ISSR markers, and probably represent a much more divergent germ plasm that may be a valuable breeding resource.

Improved predictive test for MEN2, using flanking dinucleotide repeats and RFLPs.

Gene(s) for the autosomal dominant endocrine cancer syndromes, multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2A (MEN2A), multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2B (MEN2B), and familial medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC1) all map to the pericentromeric region of chromosome 10. Predictive testing for the inheritance of mutant alleles in individuals at risk for these disorders has been limited by the availability of highly informative and closely linked flanking markers. We describe the development of eight new markers, including two PCR-based dinucleotide repeat polymorphisms and six RFLPs that flank the disease loci. One of the dinucleotide repeat markers (sJRH-1) derives from the RBP3 locus on 10q11.2 and has a PIC of .88. The other dinucleotide repeat (sTCL-1) defines a new locus, D10S176, that maps by in situ hybridization to 10p11.2 and has a PIC of .68. We have constructed a new genetic linkage map of the pericentromeric region of chromosome 10, on the basis of 13 polymorphisms at six loci, which places the MEN2A locus between the dinucleotide repeat markers, with odds of 5,750:1 over the next most likely position. Using this set of markers, predictive genetic testing of 130 at-risk individuals from six families segregating MEN2A revealed that 95% were jointly informative with flanking markers, representing a significant improvement in genetic testing capabilities.
