Japanese lawngrass (Zoysia japonica) and Manila grass (Z. matrella) are the two most important and commonly used Zoysia species. A consensus based SSR linkage map was developed for the genus by combining maps from each species. This used previously
constructed maps for two Z. japonica populations and a new map from Z. matrella. The new SSR linkage map for Z. matrella was based on 86 F2 individuals and contained 213 loci and covered a map distance of 1,351.2 cM in 32 linkage groups. Comparison of the three
linkage maps constructed from populations with different genetic backgrounds indicated that most markers exhibited a consensus
order, although some intervals or regions displayed discrepancy in marker orders or positions. The integrated map comprises
507 loci with a mean interval of 4.1 cM, covering a map distance of 2,066.6 cM in 22 linkage groups. The SSR-based map will
allow marker-assisted selection and be useful for the mapping and cloning of economically important genes or quantitative
trait loci. 相似文献

To develop simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers for the hexaploid forage grass timothy (Phleum pratense L.), we used four SSR-enriched genomic libraries to isolate 1,331 SSR-containing clones. All four libraries contained a high percentage of perfect clones, ranging from 78.1% to 91.6%. From these clones, we developed 355 SSR markers when tested from 502 SSR primer pairs. Using all 355 SSR markers we tested one screening panel consisting of eight timothy clones to detect the level of polymorphism and identify a set of loci suitable for framework mapping. The SSR markers detected 90.4% polymorphism between the parents of a pseudo-testcross F1 population. These SSR markers will provide an ideal marker system to assist with gene targeting, QTL (quantitative trait locus) mapping, and marker-assisted selection in timothy.Electronic Supplementary Material Supplementary material is available in the online version of this article at 相似文献

There are five cultivated species of pepper, of which Capsicum annuum is the most widely cultivated as a vegetable or spice and the main experimental material of most pepper breeding programs. However, the number of simple sequence-repeat (SSR) markers known for C. annuum is limited. To develop SSR markers for Capsicum species, we constructed four SSR-enriched libraries from the genomic DNA of C.␣annuum, sequenced 1873 clones, and isolated 626 unique SSR clones. A higher percentage of these SSR markers were taken from dinucleotide motif libraries than from trinucleotide motif libraries. Primer pairs for the 626 SSR clones were synthesized and tested for polymorphisms; 594 amplified products were detected with the expected size. However, only 153 products were polymorphic between the parents of our mapping population. Using 106 highly reproducible pairs from the primer pairs, we constructed a linkage map of C. annuum in an intraspecific doubled haploid population (n=117) that contains nine previously reported SSRs as well as AFLP, CAPS, and RAPD markers and the trait of fruit pungency. The map contains 374 markers, including 106 new SSR markers distributed across all 13 linkage groups, and covers 1042 cM. The polymorphism information content (PIC) of these new SSR markers was calculated using 14 lines of Capsicum species. The average number of alleles per locus was 2.9 and the average PIC value was 0.46, even within C. annuum. The SSR markers developed in this study will be useful for mapping and marker-assisted selection in pepper breeding, and the linkage map provides a reference genetic map for Capsicum species. 相似文献

Eggplant (Solanum melongena L.), also known as aubergine or brinjal, is an important vegetable in many countries. Few useful molecular markers have been
reported for eggplant. We constructed simple sequence repeat (SSR)-enriched genomic libraries in order to develop SSR markers,
and sequenced more than 14,000 clones. From these sequences, we designed 2,265 primer pairs to flank SSR motifs. We identified
1,054 SSR markers from amplification of 1,399 randomly selected primer pairs. The markers have an average polymorphic information
content of 0.27 among eight lines of S. melongena. Of the 1,054 SSR markers, 214 segregated in an intraspecific mapping population. We constructed cDNA libraries from several
eggplant tissues and obtained 6,144 expressed sequence tag (EST) sequences. From these sequences, we designed 209 primer pairs,
7 of which segregated in the mapping population. On the basis of the segregation data, we constructed a linkage map, and mapped
the 236 segregating markers to 14 linkage groups. The linkage map spans a total length of 959.1 cM, with an average marker
distance of 4.3 cM. The markers should be a useful resource for qualitative and quantitative trait mapping and for marker-assisted
selection in eggplant breeding. 相似文献

A set of 398 simple sequence repeat markers (SSRs) have been developed and characterised for use with genetic studies of Brassica species. Small-insert (250–900 bp) genomic libraries from Brassica rapa, B. nigra, B. oleracea and B. napus, highly enriched for dinucleotide and trinucleotide SSR motifs, were constructed. Screening the clones with a mixture of oligonucleotide repeat probes revealed positive hybridisation to between 75% and 90% of the clones. Of these, 1,230 were sequenced. Primer pairs were designed for 398 SSR clones, and of these, 270 (67.8%) amplified a PCR product of the expected size in their focal and/or closely related species. A further screen of 138 primers pairs that produced a PCR product in B. napus germplasm found that 86 (62.3%) revealed length polymorphisms within at least one line of a test array representing the four Brassica species. The results of this screen were used to identify 56 SSRs and were combined with 41 SSRs that had previously shown polymorphism between the parents of a B. napus mapping population. These 97 SSR markers were mapped relative to a framework of RFLP markers and detected 136 loci over all 19 linkage groups of the oilseed rape genome.Electronic Supplementary Material Supplementary material is available in the online version of this article at

We report on the characterization and mapping of 76 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers for Lolium perenne. These markers are publicly available or obtained either from genomic libraries enriched for SSR motifs or L. perenne expressed sequence tag (EST) clones. Four L. perenne mapping populations were used to map the SSR markers. A consensus linkage map of the four mapping populations containing 65 of the SSR markers is presented, together with primer information and a quality score indicating the usefulness of the SSR marker in different populations. The SSR markers identified all seven L. perenne linkage groups. 相似文献

In order to develop simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers in Italian ryegrass, we constructed a genomic library enriched for (CA)n-containing SSR repeats. A total of 1,544 clones were sequenced, of which 1,044 (67.6%) contained SSR motifs, and 395 unique clones were chosen for primer design. Three hundred and fifty-seven of these clones amplified products of the expected size in both parents of a two-way pseudo-testcross F1 mapping population, and 260 primer pairs detected genetic polymorphism in the F1 population. Genetic loci detected by a total of 218 primer pairs were assigned to locations on seven linkage groups, representing the seven chromosomes of the haploid Italian ryegrass karyotype. The SSR markers covered 887.8 cM of the female map and 795.8 cM of the male map. The average distance between two flanking SSR markers was 3.2 cM. The SSR markers developed in this study will be useful in cultivar discrimination, linkage analysis, and marker-assisted selection of Italian ryegrass and closely related species.Electronic Supplementary Material Supplementary material is available for this article at and is accessible for authorized users. 相似文献

Abundant, codominant simple sequence repeats (SSRs) markers can be used for constructing genetic linkage maps and in marker-assisted
breeding programs. Enrichment methods for SSR motifs were optimized with the ultimate aim of developing numerous loci in flowering
dogwood (C. florida L.) genome. Small insert libraries using four motifs (GT, CT, TGG, and AAC) were constructed with C. florida ‘Cherokee Brave’ deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). Colony polymerase chain reaction (PCR) of 2,208 selected clones with three
primers we reported previously indicated that 47% or 1,034 of the clones harbored one of the four targeted SSR motifs. Sequencing
the putative positive clones confirmed that nearly 99% (1,021 of 1,034) of them contained the desired motifs. Of the 871 unique
SSR loci, 617 were dinucleotide repeats (70.8%), and 254 were trinucleotide or longer repeats (29.2%). In total, 379 SSR loci
had perfect structure, 237 had interrupted, and 255 had compound structure. Primer pairs were designed from 351 unique sequences.
The ability of the 351 SSR primer pairs to amplify specific loci was evaluated with genomic DNA of ‘Appalachian Spring’ and
‘Cherokee Brave’. Of these primers, 311 successfully amplified product(s) with ‘Cherokee Brave’ DNA, 21 produced weak or faint
products, and 19 did not amplify any products. Additionally, 218 of the 311 primers pairs revealed polymorphisms between the
two cultivars, and 20 out of 218 primers detected an average of 13.7 alleles from 38 selected Cornus species and hybrids. These SSR loci constitute a valuable resource of ideal markers for both genetic linkage mapping and
gene tagging of flowering dogwood.

Zoysiagrass (Zoysia spp.), belonging to the genus Zoysia in the subfamily Chloridoideae, is widely used in domestic lawns, sports fields and as forage. We constructed high‐density genetic maps of Zoysia japonica using a restriction site‐associated DNA sequencing (RAD‐Seq) approach and an F1 mapping population derived from a cross between ‘Carrizo’ and ‘El Toro’. Two linkage maps were constructed, one for each of the parents. A map consisting of 2408 RAD markers distributed on 21 linkage groups was constructed for ‘Carrizo’. Another map with 1230 RAD markers mapped on 20 linkage groups was constructed for ‘El Toro’. The average distance between adjacent markers of the two maps was at 0.56 and 1.4 cM, respectively. Comparative genomics analysis was carried out among zoysiagrass, rice and sorghum genomes and a highly conserved collinearity in the gene order was observed among the three genomes. Chromosome collinearity was disrupted at centromeric regions for each chromosome pair between zoysiagrass and sorghum genomes. However, no obvious synteny gaps were observed across the centromeric regions between zoysiagrass and rice genomes. Two homologous chromosomes for each of the 10 sorghum chromosomes were found in the zoysiagrass genome, indicating an allotetraploid origin for zoysiagrass. The reduction of the basic chromosome number from 12 to 10 in chloridoids and panicoids took place via independent single‐step nested chromosome fusion events after the two subfamilies diverged from a common ancestor. The genetic maps will assist in genome sequence assembly, targeted gene isolation and comparative genomic analyses among grasses. 相似文献

Highly informative molecular markers, such as simple sequence repeats (SSRs), can greatly accelerate breeding programs. The
aim of this study was to develop and characterise a comprehensive set of SSR markers for white clover (Trifolium repens L.), which can be used to tag genes and quantitative trait loci controlling traits of agronomic interest. Sequence analysis
of 1123 clones from genomic libraries enriched for (CA)
n
repeats yielded 793 clones containing SSR loci. The majority of SSRs consisted of perfect dinucleotide repeats, only 7% being
trinucleotide repeats. After exclusion of redundant sequences and SSR loci with less than 25 bp of flanking sequence, 397
potentially useful SSRs remained. Primer pairs were designed for 117 SSR loci and PCR products in the expected size range
were amplified from 101 loci. These markers were highly polymorphic, 88% detecting polymorphism across seven white clover
genotypes with an average allele number of 4.8. Four primer pairs were tested in an F2 population revealing Mendelian segregation. Successful cross-species amplification was achieved in at least one out of eight
legume species for 46 of 54 primer pairs. The rate of successful amplification was significantly higher for Trifolium species when compared to species of other genera. The markers developed in this study not only provide valuable tools for
molecular breeding of white clover but may also have applications in related taxa.

Development and characterisation of simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers for perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Enrichment methods were optimised in order to isolate large numbers of simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers for perennial
ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.), with the aim of developing a comprehensive set of loci for trait mapping and cultivar identification. Two libraries
were constructed showing greater than 50% enrichment for a variety of SSR-motif types. Sequence characterisation of 1853 clones
identified 859 SSR-containing clones, of which 718 were unique. Truncation of flanking sequences limited potential primer
design to 366 clones. One-hundred selected SSR primer pairs were evaluated for amplification and genetic polymorphism across
a panel of diverse genotypes. The efficiency of amplification was 81%. A relatively high level of SSR polymorphism was detected
(67%), with a range of 2–7 alleles per locus. Mendelian segregation of alleles detected by selected SSR-locus primer pairs
was demonstrated in the F1 progeny of a pair cross. Cross-species amplification was detected in a number of related pasture and turfgrass species, with
high levels of transfer to other Lolium species and members of the related genus Festuca. The identity of putative SSR ortholoci in these related species was confirmed by DNA sequence analysis. These loci constitute
a valuable resource of ideal markers for the molecular breeding of ryegrasses and fescues.

So far only very few simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers developed from grass species have had their primer sequences published. To make more markers available to the scientific community, we isolated and sequenced 256 microsatellite‐containing clones from four genome libraries of a Lolium multiflorum×Festuca glaucescens F1 hybrid following enrichment in (TC)n, (TG)n, or both repeats. In this work, we report the primer sequences of 60 SSRs including preliminary results of polymorphism for mapping. 相似文献

Salt Glands in the Zoysieae 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Salt glands were found in two species of the genus Zoysia ofthe tribe Zoysieae, sub-family Chloridoideae (Poaceae). Glandsprotrude from and are recumbent to the leaf epidermis, and consistof two cells, a basal cell and upper cap cell. Glands were betterdeveloped on the adaxial surfaces. Those on the abaxial surfaceappear to be non-functional. Zoysia matrella, the more salt-tolerantspecies, had a higher density of larger glands, and secretedmore sodium per unit leaf mass, resulting in much lower leafsap osmolalities than those of the more salt-sensitive Z. japonica.The finding of salt glands in the tribe Zoysieae confirms itsrelation to the four other tribes within the sub-family Chloridoideaein which salt glands have previously been reported.

Development and incorporation of microsatellite markers into the linkage map of sugar beet (Beta vulgaris spp.) 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

A set of informative simple sequence repeat markers has been identified for use in the marker-assisted breeding of Beta vulgaris. Highly enriched small insert genomic libraries were constructed, consisting of 1536 clones (with inserts of between 250–900
bp). Screening the clones with CA, CT, CAA, CATA and GATA nucleotide-repeat probes revealed positive hybridisation to over
50% of the clones. Of these 340 were sequenced. Primer pairs were designed for sequences flanking the repeats and, of these,
57 pairs revealed length polymorphism with 12 Beta accessions. Heterozygosity levels of the SSR loci ranged from 0.069 to 0.809. Heterozygosity levels were found to be similar
to those detected employing RFLP probes with the same accessions. Phenetic analysis using the markers, indicated relationships
in accordance with known pedigrees. Twenty three of the SSR markers were polymorphic in one or both of two F2 mapping populations, and were placed relative to a framework of RFLP probes. The markers are distributed over all nine linkage
groups of sugar beet.

Construction and characterization of two rice bacterial artificial chromosome libraries from the parents of a permanent recombinant inbred mapping population 总被引:13,自引:0,他引:13

Rice is a leading grain crop and the staple food for over half of the world population. Rice is also an ideal species for genetic and biological studies of cereal crops and other monocotyledonous plants because of its small genome and well developed genetic system. To facilitate rice genome analysis leading to physical mapping, the identification of molecular markers closely linked to economic traits, and map-based cloning, we have constructed two rice bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) libraries from the parents of a permanent mapping population (Lemont and Teqing) consisting of 400 F9 recombinant inbred lines (RILs). Lemont (japonica) and Teqing (indica) represent the two major genomes of cultivated rice, both are leading commercial varieties and widely used germplasm in rice breeding programs. The Lemont library contains 7296 clones with an average insert size of 150 kb, which represents 2.6 rice haploid genome equivalents. The Teqing library contains 14208 clones with an average insert size of 130 kb, which represents 4.4. rice haploid genome equivalents. Three single-copy DNA probes were used to screen the libraries and at least two overlapping BAC clones were isolated with each probe from each library, ranging from 45 to 260 kb in insert size. Hybridization of BAC clones with chloroplast DNA probes and fluorescent in situ hybridization using BAC DNA as probes demonstrated that both libraries contain very few clones of chloroplast DNA origin and are likely free of chimeric clones. These data indicate that both BAC libraries should be suitable for map-based cloning of rice genes and physical mapping of the rice genome. 相似文献

SSR-based linkage map with new markers using an intraspecific population of common wheat 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14

Simple sequence repeats (SSRs) are valuable molecular markers in many plant species. In common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), which is characteristic of its large genomes and alloploidy, SSRs are one of the most useful markers. To increase SSR
marker sources and construct an SSR-based linkage map of appropriate density, we tried to develop new SSR markers from SSR-enriched
genomic libraries and the public database. SSRs having (GA)n and (GT)n motifs were isolated from enriched libraries, and di-
and tri-nucleotide repeats were mined from expressed sequence tags (ESTs) and DNA sequences of Triticum species in the public database. Of the 1,147 primer pairs designed, 842 primers gave accurate amplification products, and
478 primers showed polymorphism among the nine wheat lines examined. Using a doubled haploid (DH) population from an intraspecific
cross between Kitamoe and Münstertaler (KM), we constructed an SSR-based linkage map that consisted of 464 loci: 185 loci
from genomic libraries, 65 loci from the sequence database including ESTs, 213 loci from the SSR markers already reported,
and 1 locus of morphological marker. Although newly developed SSR loci were distributed throughout all chromosomes, clustering
of them around putative centromeric regions was found on several chromosomes. The total length of the KM map spanned 3,441 cM
and corresponded to approximately 86% genome coverage. The KM map comprised of 23 linkage groups because two gaps of over
50 cM distance remained on chromosome 6A. This is a first report of SSR-based linkage map using single intraspecific population
of common wheat. This mapping result suggests that it becomes possible to construct linkage maps with sufficient genome coverage
using only SSR markers without RFLP markers, even in an intraspecific population of common wheat. Moreover, the new SSR markers
will contribute to the enrichment of molecular marker resources in common wheat. 相似文献

We have developed and evaluated sequence-tagged site (STS) primers based on expressed sequence-tag information derived from sugi (Cryptomeria japonica) for use in hinoki (Chamaecyparis obtusa), a species that belongs to a different family (although it appears to be fairly closely related to sugi). Of the 417 C. japonica STS primer pairs we screened, 120 (~30%) were transferable and provided specific PCR amplification products from 16 C. obtusa plus trees. We used haploid megagametophytes to investigate the homology of 80 STS fragments between C. obtusa and C. japonica and to identify orthologous loci. Nearly 90% of the fragments showed high (>70%) degrees of similarity between the species, and 35 STSs indicated homology to entries with the same putative function in a public DNA database. Of the 120 STS fragments amplified, 72 showed restriction fragment length polymorphisms; in addition, the CC2430 primers detected amplicon length polymorphism. We assessed the inheritance pattern of 27 cleaved amplified polymorphic sequence markers, using 20 individuals from the segregation population. All the markers analyzed were consistent with the marker inheritance patterns obtained from the screening panel, and no markers (except CC2716) showed significant (P<0.01) deviation from the expected segregation ratio. In total, 136 polymorphic markers were developed using C. japonica-based STS primers without any sequence modification. In addition, the applicability of STS-based markers developed in one species to other species was found to closely reflect the evolutionary distance between the species, which is roughly concordant with the difference between their rbcL sequences. We plan to use these markers for genetic studies in C. obtusa. Most of the markers should also provide reliable anchor loci for comparative mapping studies of the C. obtusa and C. japonica genomes. 相似文献

The availability of whole genome shotgun sequences (WGSs) in Brassica oleracea provides an unprecedented opportunity for development of microsatellite or simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers for genome
analysis and genetic improvement in Brassica species. In this study, a total of 56,465 non-redundant SSRs were identified from the WGSs in B. oleracea, with dinucleotide repeats being the most abundant, followed by tri-, tetra- and pentanucleotide repeats. From these, 1,398
new SSR markers (designated as BoGMS) with repeat length ≥25 bp were developed and used to survey polymorphisms with a panel
of six rapeseed varieties, which is the largest number of SSR markers developed for the C genome in a single study. Of these
SSR markers, 752 (69.5%) showed polymorphism among the six varieties. Of these, 266 markers that showed clear scorable polymorphisms
between B. napus varieties No. 2127 and ZY821 were integrated into an existing B. napus genetic linkage map. These new markers are preferentially distributed on the linkage groups in the C genome, and significantly
increased the number of SSR markers in the C genome. These SSR markers will be very useful for gene mapping and marker-assisted
selection of important agronomic traits in Brassica species. 相似文献

An extremely high-density (ca. 800 deer km–2) wild sika deer population uses a short-grass community dominated by Zoysia japonica on Kinkazan Island in northeastern Japan. To explain why the density of wild deer is quite high on the Zoysia community, (1) we quantified the seasonal productivity of the Zoysia community, (2) we compared food availabilities among the plant communities, and (3) we described the habitat selection by the deer in different seasons. Food availability was greater on the Zoysia community than in the forest understory from spring to fall. The productivity of the Zoysia community was high enough to support the actual high density of the deer (814 deer km–2) in summer. However, the productivity markedly decreased in winter, when the deer density decreased to less than half (358 deer km–2) of the summer value. In contrast, the deer density of the adjacent forests was highest in winter (154 deer km–2) and lowest in spring (19 deer km–2). These results suggest that the deer using the Zoysia community in summer left and were absorbed into the adjacent forest in winter. If such an adjacent community were absent, many deer would not survive, and consequently the deer density on the Zoysia community in summer would not be so high. This intercommunity movement is particularly important for the deer using a plant community like the Zoysia community, which is highly productive but has a small standing biomass. 相似文献

Construction of BAC and BIBAC libraries and their applications for generation of SSR markers for genome analysis of chickpea, Cicer arietinum L. 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Large-insert bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) libraries, plant-transformation-competent binary BAC (BIBAC) libraries, and simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers are essential for many aspects of genomics research. We constructed a BAC library and a BIBAC library from the nuclear DNA of chickpea, Cicer arietinum L., cv. Hadas, partially digested with HindIII and BamHI, respectively. The BAC library has 14,976 clones, with an average insert size of 121 kb, and the BIBAC library consists of 23,040 clones, with an average insert size of 145 kb. The combined libraries collectively cover ca. 7.0× genomes of chickpea. We screened the BAC library with eight synthetic SSR oligos, (GA)10, (GAA)7, (AT)10, (TAA)7, (TGA)7, (CA)10, (CAA)7, and (CCA)7. Positive BACs were selected, subcloned, and sequenced for SSR marker development. Two hundred and thirty-three new chickpea SSR markers were developed and characterized by PCR, using chickpea DNA as template. These results have demonstrated that BACs are an excellent source for SSR marker development in chickpea. We also estimated the distribution of the SSR loci in the chickpea genome. The SSR motifs (TAA)n and (GA)n were much more abundant than the others, and the distribution of the SSR loci appeared non-random. The BAC and BIBAC libraries and new SSR markers will provide valuable resources for chickpea genomics research and breeding (the libraries and their filters are available to the public at ).J. Lichtenzveig and C. Scheuring contributed equally to this study. 相似文献
