Analyses of genetic diversity among maize inbred lines differing for resistance to pink borer and post-flowering stalk rot

Identification of the diverse sources of resistance is an important issue among the breeders for developing pest and disease free hybrids, to reduce the inoculum load, to prolong the life of inbred lines/hybrids and to reduce the cost of cultivation. Molecular diversity analysis was carried out among 23 maize inbred lines with respect to post flowering stalk rot and pink borer. Forty six SSR markers were employed among eight post flowering stalk rot (PFSR) and seven pink borer resistant lines along with eight other inbred lines to identify diverse resistant sources for developing resistant heterotic combinations to above pests and diseases. Number of alleles per SSR marker ranged from 2 to 9 averaging 4.11. The polymorphism information content (PIC) ranged from 0.272 to 0.839 with an average of 0.568. Discrimination rate (DR) of the markers ranged from 0.095 to 0.861 with a mean of 0.618. Number of alleles was highly correlated with PIC and DR. The pair-wise genetic dissimilarity values ranged from 0.05 to 0.84 with an overall mean of 0.64. Un-weighted neighbour joining clustering put 23 genotypes in two main clusters, which were further subdivided into 5 and 6 sub-clusters, respectively. We obtained 56 rare and 26 unique alleles in specific inbred lines, which can be used for identification of these lines. The present study has revealed considerable diversity among inbred lines differing for resistance against PFSR and pink borer; and provided ample scope for selection of parents for utilization in heterosis breeding     

Analysis of genetic diversity and relationships among waxy maize inbred lines in Korea using SSR markers

Information regarding the genetic diversity and genetic relationships among elite inbred lines is necessary to improve new cultivars in maize breeding programs. In this study, genetic diversity and genetic relationships were investigated among 84 waxy maize inbred lines using 50 SSR markers. A total of 269 alleles were identified at all the loci with an average of 5.38 and a range between 2 and 13 alleles per locus. The gene diversity values varied from 0.383 to 0.923 with an average of 0.641. The cluster tree generated using the described SSR markers recognized two major groups at 32% genetic similarity. Group I included 33 inbred lines while group II included 51 inbred lines. The clustering patterns of most of the waxy maize inbred lines did not clearly agree with their source, pedigree or geographic location. The average GS among all inbred lines was 35.7 ± 10.8. Analysis of waxy maize inbred lines collected from Korea and China at 50 SSR loci revealed higher values of average number of alleles (4.9) and gene diversity (0.638) in Korean inbred lines as compared to Chinese inbred lines (3.5 and 0.563, respectively). The information obtained from the present studies would be very useful for maize breeding programs in Korea.     

Genetic diversity of African maize inbred lines revealed by SSR markers

Knowledge of genetic diversity (GD) and relationships among maize inbred lines is indispensable in a breeding program. Our objectives were to (1) investigate the level of genetic diversity among maize inbred lines and (2) assess their genetic structures by applying simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. Fifty-six highland and mid-altitude maize inbred lines obtained from CIMMYT programs in Ethiopia and Zimbabwe were genotyped using 27 SSR loci. All of the genotypes studied could unequivocally be distinguished with the combination of the SSRs used. In total, 104 SSR alleles were identified, with a mean of 3.85 alleles per locus. The average polymorphism information content (PIC) was 0.58. GD expressed as Euclidean distance, varied from 0.28 to 0.73 with an average of 0.59. Cluster analysis using unweighted pair group method with arithmetic average (UPGMA) suggested five groups among the inbred lines. Most of the inbred lines adapted to the highlands and the mid-altitudes were positioned in different clusters with a few discrepancies. The pattern of groupings of the inbred lines was mostly consistent with available pedigree information. The variability detected using SSR markers could potentially contribute towards effective utilization of the inbred lines for the exploitation of heterosis and formation of genetically diverse source populations in Ethiopian maize improvement programs.     

Evaluation of SSR Markers for the Assessment of Genetic Diversity and Fingerprinting of Gossypium hirsutum Accessions

A total 177 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers were screened using a set of 47 Upland cotton genotypes comprising 14 commercial varieties, 14 germplasm accessions and 19 advanced breeding lines to identify informative markers for genetic diversity assessment and fingerprinting in G. hirsutum. Only 21% (381177) of SSR markers tested showed polymorphism with a mean of 2.18 alleles per locus and with average polymorphism information content (PIC) of 0.32. The SSR markers revealed a Jaccard’ similarity coefficient ranging between 0.43 and 0.89, with an average of 0.67 among accessions. Cluster analysis using unweighted pair group method with arithmetic averages (UPGMA) and principal component analysis (PCA) indicated that majority of the genotypes were very closely related. All the 47 genotypes showed heterorygosity for at least one of the SSR loci. We discovered 19 rare and 6 unique alleles among the tested genotypes of cotton. Fingerprint based on all the 38 loci revealed a probability of identical match by chance of 3.98x10. A set of ten SSR markers was identified which could distinguish all the 47 genotypes with a moderate probability of identical match by chance (X?_D ⁿ = 0.01).     

贵州70份玉米自交系的SSR标记遗传多样性及其杂种优势群分析

从251个SSR标记中筛选出均匀分布在玉米基因组上的88个SSR标记,用以分析评价贵州省2000年以来47个审定品种的70份亲本材料的遗传多样性。SSR标记检测的结果:88个标记共检测出466个等位基因,每个标记可检测等位基因2～18个,平均为5.31个;每个标记位点的多态性信息量(PIC)变化为0.213～0.965,平均为0.586,这表明贵州玉米自交系具有较为丰富的遗传多样性。POPTREE聚类分析结果:70份自交系分为Ⅰ、Ⅱ和Ⅲ类群。Ⅰ类群含8个自交系,以瑞德和兰卡斯特等温带种质为主。Ⅱ类群有11个自交系,以PN78599、瑞德和兰卡斯特等温带种质为主。Ⅲ类群拥有51个自交系,可分为A和B 2个亚群,B亚群还可再分为B1和B2 2个次亚群,A亚群中的10个系以我国地方温带种质为主,B1次亚群中的19个系以贵州地方亚热带种质为主,B2次亚群中的22个系以泰国苏湾热带种质为主。杂种优势利用分析的结果表明,贵州近些年在玉米育种中,主要是利用贵州地方亚热带种质和泰国苏湾热带种质2个杂种优势群,这与其多态位点百分率较高有关,与其群内SSR位点的平均等位数较多有关。贵州玉米育种利用的种质类型较少,有必要加强玉米种...     

Molecular and Biochemical Characterization of Short Duration Quality Protein Maize

Fifty microsatellite or simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers, spread across the maize genome were used for analyzing a set of 19 elite Quality Protein Maize (QPM) lines, including seventeen lines developed in India and two at CIMMYT, Mexico. Polymorphic profiles for 47 SSR loci have aided in differentiating the QPM inbred lines. The polymorphism information content (PIC) values among the inbreds ranged from 0.06 (umc2229) to 0.70 (umc1071) with an average of 0.45 per primer-pair. The genetic relationships as indicated by the cluster analysis of SSR data were largely in congruence with the known pedigree of the QPM lines. The study resulted in identification of two SSR markers, umc1071 and umc1063 with higher PIC values of 0.70 and 0.64, respectively. The tryptophan content among the genotypes was found to vary considerably. Two genotypes viz., VOL 2 and VOL 8 were found to differ significantly for tryptophan content (0.51% and 0.94%, respectively). Both these QPM genotypes being derived from the same non-QPM parent CM 145, makes them ideal for mapping of modifiers for tryptophan content.     

An evaluation of the utility of SSR loci as molecular markers in maize (Zea mays L.): comparisons with data from RFLPS and pedigree

 The utility of 131 simple sequence repeat (SSR) loci to characterize and identify maize inbred lines, validate pedigree, and show associations among inbred lines was evaluated using a set of 58 inbred lines and four hybrids. Thirteen sets of inbred parent-progeny triplet pedigrees together with four hybrids and their parental lines were used to quantify incidences of scoring that departed from expectations based upon simple Mendelian inheritance. Results were compared to those obtained using 80 restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) probes. Over all inbred triplets, 2.2% of SSRs and 3.6% of RFLP loci resulted in profiles that were scored as having segregated in a non-Mendelian fashion. Polymorphic index content (PIC, a measure of discrimination ability) values ranged from 0.06 to 0.91 for SSRs and from 0.10 to 0.84 for RFLPs. Mean values for PIC for SSRs and RFLPs were similar, approximately 0.62. However, PIC values for nine SSRs exceeded the maximum PIC for RFLPs. Di-repeats gave the highest mean PIC scores for SSRs but this class of repeats can result in “stutter” bands that complicate accurate genotyping. Associations among inbreds were similar for SSR and RFLP data, closely approximating expectations from known pedigrees. SSR technology presents the potential advantages of reliability, reproducibility, discrimination, standardization and cost effectiveness over RFLPs. SSR profiles can be readily interpreted in terms of alleles at mapped loci across a broad range of maize germ plasm. Consequently, SSRs represent the optimum approach for the identification and pedigree validation of maize genotypes compared to other currently available methods.

The use of SSRs for predicting the hybrid yield and yield heterosis in 15 key inbred lines of Chinese maize

A challenge to maize breeders is to predict and identify inbred lines that can produce highly heterotic hybrids precisely. In the present study we surveyed the genetic diversity among 15 elite inbred lines of maize in China with SSR markers and assessed the relationship between SSR marker and hybrid yield/yield heterosis in a diallel set of 105 crosses. Forty-three SSR primers selected from all sixty-three primers gave stable profiles amplified in the sample of 15 inbred lines, which could clearly resolve on 4% metaphor agarose gel. The average number of alleles per SSR locus was 4.44 with a range from 2 to 9. The polymorphism information content (PIC) for the SSR loci varied from 0.28 to 0.81 with a mean of 0.6281. Genetic similarity (GS) among 15 lines was estimated with 191 alleles identified as raw data, the Nei's coefficient of GS ranged from 0.492 for 478 vs HZ4 up to 0.745 for E28 to ZH64 with a mean of 0.619. The cluster diagram based upon the SSR data grouped the 15 lines into families consistent with the yield heterotic response of these. Genetic distance (GD) based on SSR data was significantly correlated with hybrid yield/yield heterosis, the correlation coefficient (r) being 0.5432 and 0.4271 in 1999 and 0.4305 and 0.3614 in 1998 field test, respectively, whereas the determination coefficient (r2) was lower. The correlation between GD based on SSR data and hybrid yield/yield heterosis changed alone with the difference of number and pedigree relationship among parents that were used in this study. SSR makers showed high polymorphism and could be used to assess the relationship between inbred lines of maize, but it was difficult to predict the yield heterosis of maize.     

Microsatellite marker-based genetic diversity assessment among exotic and native maize inbred lines of Bangladesh

Hybrid development is basically dependent on the variability among available genetic resources. Polymorphism among the maize inbreds is essentially needed for maize hybridization. This study aimed at the assessment of diversity among 22 maize inbreds by 18 microsatellite markers. The study identified 187 alleles at 18 SSR loci. The amplified allele frequency per microsatellite locus was 10.4 and the highest allele per locus was 17 in SSR primer pair phi026. SSR primer set p-umc1292, phi074 and phi090 showed the lowest 6 alleles per genotype per locus. The locus phi026 showed the highest degree of gene diversity (0.92), and the locus p-umc1292 had the lowest of gene diversity (0.77) with a mean value of 0.862 among the microsatellites. At each site, the most prevalent allele varied between 0.14 (bnlg371) and 0.36. (p-umc1292). At any given locus, an average of 0.22 out of the 22 selected maize inbred lines had a common major allele. The average value of the polymorphic information content (PIC) was 0.85, within the range of 0.74 at the lowest to 0.92 at the highest. The higher PIC values of phi026 and nc013 established them to be the best markers for maize inbred lines. The UPGMA clustering generated seven distinct groups having 12.5% of similarity coefficient. The results revealed that inbred lines E10, E27, E19, E34, E35, E4, E43, E28, E11, E21, E17, E38, E25, E34, E14, E16, E39 and E3 were more diversified. These lines are promising to be used as parent materials for hybrid maize development in the future.     

Assessment of genetic variation in tomato （Solanum lycopersicum L.） inbred lines using SSR molecular markers

A study was conducted to determine the genetic diversity of 39 determinate and indeterminate tomato inbred lines collected from China, Japan, S. Korea, and USA. Using 35 SSR polymorphic markers, a total of 150 alleles were found with moderate levels of diversity, and a high number of unique alleles existing in these tomato lines. The mean number of alleles per locus was 4.3 and the average polymorphism information content (PIC) was 0.31. Unweighted Pair Group Method with Arithmetic Mean (UPGMA) clustering at genetic similarity value of 0.85 grouped the inbred lines into four groups, where one USA cultivar formed a separate and more distant cluster. The most similar inbred lines are from USA, both with determinate type, whereas the most different lines are from USA (Us-16) and Japan (Ja-2) with determinate and indeterminate growth habit, respectively. Clustering was consistent with the known information regarding geographical location and growth habit. The genetic distance information reported in this study might be used by breeders when planning future crosses among these inbred lines.     

Variation of DNA fingerprints among accessions within maize inbred lines and implications for identification of essentially derived varieties.

Genetic distances (GDs) based on molecular markers are important parameters for identifying essentially derived varieties (EDVs). In this context information about the variability of molecular markers within maize inbred lines is essential. Our objectives were to (1) determine the variation in the size of simple sequence repeat (SSR) fragments among different accessions of maize inbreds and doubled haploid (DH) lines, (2) attribute the observed variation to genetic and marker system-specific sources, and (3) investigate the effect of SSR fragment size differences within maize lines on the GD between maize lines and their consequences for the identification of essentially derived varieties. Two to five accessions from nine inbred lines and five DH lines were taken from different sources or drawn as independent samples from the same seed lot. Each accession was genotyped with 100 SSR markers that evenly covered the whole maize genome. In total, 437 SSR fragments were identified, with a mean of 4.4 alleles per locus. The average polymorphic information content (PIC) was 0.58. GD estimates between two accessions of the same genotype ranged from 0.00 to 0.12 with an average of 0.029 for inbred lines and 0.001 for DH lines. An average of 11.1 SSRs was polymorphic between accessions of the same inbred line due to non-amplification (8.1 SSRs), heterogeneity (4.0 SSRs) or unknown alleles (2.6 SSRs). In contrast to lab errors, heterogeneity contributed considerably to the observed variation for GD. In order to decrease the probability to be suited for infringing an EDV threshold by chance, we recommend to increase the level of homogeneity of inbred lines before applying for plant variety protection.     

Determination of genetic relationships among elite thermosensitive genic male sterile lines (TGMS) of rice (Oryza sativa L.) employing morphological and simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers

A set of morphological traits and SSR markers were used to determine the genetic relationship among 12 elite thermosensitive genic male sterile (TGMS) lines developed at three different research institutions of India. Agro-morphological data recorded on 20 morphological traits revealed a wide base of genetic variation and a set of four morphological traits could distinguish most of the TGMS lines. Analysis with 30 SSR markers (20 EST-SSRs and 10 genomic SSRs) revealed 27 markers to be polymorphic, amplifying a total of 83 alleles. Each SSR marker amplified 2-6 alleles with an average of 2.76 alleles per marker and a PIC value varying from 0.54 to 0.96. Cluster analysis based on SSR and morphological data clearly differentiated the lines according to their source of origin. Correlation analysis between morphological and molecular data revealed a very poor association (r = 0.06), which could be attributed to selection pressure, genetic drift, sampling error and unknown relationship among related lines. The SSR markers discriminated the genotypes distinctly and quantified the genetic diversity precisely among the TGMS lines. Data on the yield per plant indicated that the genotypes grouping under a similar cluster showed same heterotic behaviour as compared to the genotypes from different clusters when crossed to similar pollinators.     

Identification of kernel iron- and zinc-rich maize inbreds and analysis of genetic diversity using microsatellite markers

Development of micronutrient enriched staple foods is an important breeding goal in view of the extensive problem of ‘hidden hunger’ caused by micronutrient malnutrition. In the present study, kernel iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn) concentrations were evaluated in a set of 31 diverse maize inbred lines in three trials at two locations – Delhi (Kharif 2007 & 2008) and Hyderabad (Rabi 2007–08). The ranges of kernel Fe and Zn concentrations were 13.95–39.31 mg/kg and 21.85–40.91 mg/kg, respectively, across the three environments. Pooled analysis revealed significant genotype × environment (G × E) interaction in the expression of both the micronutrient traits, although kernel Fe was found to be more sensitive to G × E as compared to kernel Zn. Seven inbred lines, viz., BAJIM-06-03, DQPM-6, CM212, BAJIM-06-12, DQPM-7, DQPM-2 and CM129, were found to be the most stable and promising inbred lines for kernel Zn concentration, while for kernel Fe concentration, no promising and stable genotypes could be identified. Analysis of molecular diversity in 24 selected inbred lines with phenotypic contrast for the two kernel micronutrient traits, using 50 SSR markers covering the maize genome, revealed high levels of polymorphisms (214 SSR alleles; mean PIC value?=?0.62). The phenotypically contrasting and genetically diverse maize inbred lines identified in this study could be potentially utilized in further studies on QTL analysis of kernel micronutrient traits in maize, and the stable and most promising kernel micronutrient-rich maize genotypes provide a good foundation for developing micronutrient-enriched maize varieties suitable for the Indian context.     

Cytomorphological and molecular diversity in backcross-derived inbred lines of sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.).

A set of 250 distinct, stable, and uniform backcross-derived inbred lines were developed in sunflower through 5 interspecific cross combinations involving 4 wild diploid annual species (Helianthus argophyllus, H. petiolaris, H. annuus, and H. debilis). The presence of the wild-species genome in these inbred lines was confirmed through higher chromosome associations (tri- and quadrivalents) at diakinesis. Maximum structural rearrangements of chromosomes were observed in lines derived from H. petiolaris. Forty morphologically diverse inbred lines along with 2 controls were subjected to measurements of phenotypic and genetic distance using 118 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers of known map location. A total of 204 alleles were identified and the number of alleles per locus varied between 2 and 5. There were 46 unique alleles and the number of unique alleles was highest in the lines derived from the cross involving H. petiolaris. The polymorphism information content (PIC) values ranged from 0.05 to 0.575. The pair-wise comparison values based on genetic dissimilarity estimates computed using molecular marker data varied between 0.143 and 0.486 among the 42 lines. The results indicate that the sunflower gene pool could benefit from introgression of novel alleles from the latent genetic diversity present in the wild species and particularly through exploitation of the diploid annual H. petiolaris.     

Assessment of genetic diversity and relationship among a collection of US sweet sorghum germplasm by SSR markers

Sweet sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.) is a type of cultivated sorghums and has been recognized widely as potential alternative source of bio-fuel because of its high fermentable sugar content in the stalk. A substantial variation of sugar content and related traits is known to exist in US sweet sorghum. The objectives of the study were to assess the genetic diversity and relationship among the US sweet sorghum cultivars and lines using SSR markers and to examine the genetic variability within sweet sorghum accessions for sugar content. Sixty-eight sweet sorghum and four grain sorghum cultivars and lines were genotyped with 41 SSR markers that generated 132 alleles with an average of 3.22 alleles per locus. Polymorphism information content (PIC) value, a measure of gene diversity, was 0.40 with a range of 0.03–0.87. The genetic similarity co-efficient was estimated based on the segregation of the 132 SSR alleles. Clustering analysis based on the genetic similarity (GS) grouped the 72 sorghum accessions into 10 distinct clusters. Grouping based on clustering analysis was in good agreement with available pedigree and genetic background information. The study has revealed the genetic relationship of cultivars with unknown parentage to those with known parentage. A number of diverse pairs of sweet sorghum accessions were identified which were polymorphic at many SSR loci and significantly different for sugar content as well. Information generated from this study can be used to select parents for hybrid development to maximize the sugar content and total biomass, and development of segregating populations to map genes controlling sugar content in sweet sorghum.

棉花耐盐相关种质资源遗传多样性分析

为了解我国棉花耐盐相关种质资源的遗传变异,利用88对SSR引物对23份棉花耐盐材料和24份盐敏感材料进行遗传多样性分析。88个SSR位点在47份材料中共检测出338个等位基因变异,平均每个位点有3.841个;其中耐盐材料中检测出333个,盐敏感材料中检测出312个。耐盐材料的位点多态信息含量(PIC)、每个位点的有效等位基因数(Ne)、基因型多样性(H′)分别为0.613、2.929和1.083,盐敏感材料的PIC、Ne、H′分别为0.605、2.883和1.071。耐盐材料和盐敏感材料的Jaccard相似性系数分别在0.530–0.979和0.525–0.878之间,遗传相似性系数总体平均值接近,但耐盐材料的变化幅度更大。用类平均法(UPGMA)聚类将47份材料分成3个类群。总体而言,大多数材料之间的遗传相似性系数较高,表明我国陆地棉耐盐相关种质资源遗传基础狭窄。本结果为棉花耐盐育种中亲本的选配和优势组合的预测以及耐盐资源的合理利用等提供了基础资料。     

Genetic analysis of maize germplasm in the Korean Genebank and association with agronomic traits and simple sequence repeat markers

We assessed genetic and phenotypic variation in 105 maize germplasm accessions from RDA-Genebank of Korea and performed association analyses for 11 agronomical traits and 100 simple sequence repeats (SSR). Genetic diversity (GD) analysis revealed a total of 1104 alleles at the 100 SSR loci. The average number of alleles per locus was 11.0. The average GD and polymorphic information content values were 0.73 and 0.70, respectively. The average major allele frequency was 0.41. Population structure analysis indicated that these maize accessions comprised two major groups and one admixed group based on a membership probability threshold of 0.80. The two major groups contained 35 and 46 maize accessions. A mixed linear model of association analysis revealed five marker-trait associations with a significance level of P?≤?0.01 involving five SSR markers. A general linear model showed 72 marker-trait associations involving 42 SSR markers. We confirmed the presence in the general linear model associations of the five significant marker-trait associations (SMTAs) identified in the mixed linear model. For these SMTAs, two loci were associated with stem diameter and one locus each was associated with ear row number, leaf width, and leaf length. These results should prove useful for breeding new inbred lines by selecting parental lines using molecular markers and will help to preserve maize genetic resources in Korea.
