Accessions from Cicer echinospermum, a wild relative of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.), contain resistance to the fungal disease ascochyta blight, a devastating disease of chickpea. A linkage map was constructed based on an interspecific F(2) population, derived from a cross between a susceptible chickpea cultivar (Lasseter) and a resistant C. echinospermum accession (PI 527930). The linkage map incorporated 83 molecular markers, that included RAPD, ISSR, STMS and RGA markers; eight markers remained unlinked. The map comprised eight linkage groups and covered a map distance of 570 cM. Six out of the eight linkage groups were correlated to linkage groups from the integrated Cicer map using STMS markers. Quantitative trait loci (QTLs) associated with ascochyta blight resistance were detected using interval mapping and single-point analysis. The F(2) population was evaluated for seedling and stem resistance in glasshouse trials. At least two QTLs were identified for seedling resistance, both of which were located within linkage group 4. Five markers were associated with stem resistance, four of which were also associated with seedling resistance. QTLs from previous studies also mapped to LG 4, suggesting that this linkage group is an important region of the Cicer genome for resistance to ascochyta blight. 相似文献

Fifty sequence-tagged microsatellite site (STMS) markers and a resistant gene-analog (RGA) locus were integrated into a chickpea ( Cicer arietinum L., 2n = 2 x = 16 chromosomes) genetic map that was previously constructed using 142 F(6)-derived recombinant inbred lines (RILs) from a cross of C. arietinum x Cicer reticulatum Lad. The map covers 1,174.5 cM with an average distance of 7.0 cM between markers in nine linkage groups (LGs). Nine markers including the RGA showed distorted segregation ( P < 0.05). The majority of the newly integrated markers were mapped to marker-dense regions of the LGs. Six co-dominant STMS markers were integrated into two previously reported major quantitative trait loci (QTLs) conferring resistance to Ascochyta blight caused by Ascochyta rabiei (Pass.) Labr. Using common STMS markers as anchors, three maps developed from different mapping populations were joined, and genes for resistance to Ascochyta blight, Fusarium wilt (caused by Fusarium oxysporum Schlechtend.: Fr. f. sp. ciceris), and for agronomically important traits were located on the combined linkage map. The integration of co-dominant STMS markers improves the map of chickpea and makes it possible to consider additional fine mapping of the genome and also map-based cloning of important disease resistance genes. 相似文献

A population of 131 recombinant inbred lines from a wide cross between chickpea ( Cicer arietinum L., resistant parent) and Cicer reticulatum (susceptible parent) segregating for the closely linked resistances against Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. ciceri races 4 and 5 was used to develop DNA amplification fingerprinting markers linked to both resistance loci. Bulked segregant analysis revealed 19 new markers on linkage group 2 of the genetic map on which the resistance genes are located. Closest linkage (2.0 cM) was observed between marker R-2609-1 and the race 4 resistance locus. Seven other markers flanked this locus in a range from 4.1 to 9.0 cM. These are the most closely linked markers available for this locus up to date. The sequences of the linked markers were highly similar to genes encoding proteins involved in plant pathogen response, such as a PR-5 thaumatin-like protein and an important regulator of the phytoalexin pathway, anthranilate N-hydroxycinnamoyl-benzoyltransferase. Others showed significant alignments to genes encoding housekeeping enzymes such as the MutS2 DNA-mismatch repair protein. In the Arabidopsis genome, similar genes are located on short segments of chromosome 1 and 5, respectively, suggesting synteny between the fusarium resistance gene cluster of chickpea and the corresponding regions in the Arabidopsis genome. Three marker sequences were similar to retrotransposon-derived and/or satellite DNA sequences. The markers developed here provide a starting point for physical mapping and map-based cloning of the fusarium resistance genes and exploration of synteny in this highly interesting region of the chickpea genome. 相似文献

A set of 2486 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were compiled in chickpea using four approaches, namely (i) Solexa/Illumina sequencing (1409), (ii) amplicon sequencing of tentative orthologous genes (TOGs) (604), (iii) mining of expressed sequence tags (ESTs) (286) and (iv) sequencing of candidate genes (187). Conversion of these SNPs to the cost-effective and flexible throughput Competitive Allele Specific PCR (KASPar) assays generated successful assays for 2005 SNPs. These marker assays have been designated as Chickpea KASPar Assay Markers (CKAMs). Screening of 70 genotypes including 58 diverse chickpea accessions and 12 BC(3) F(2) lines showed 1341 CKAMs as being polymorphic. Genetic analysis of these data clustered chickpea accessions based on geographical origin. Genotyping data generated for 671 CKAMs on the reference mapping population (Cicer arietinum ICC 4958?×?Cicer reticulatum PI 489777) were compiled with 317 unpublished TOG-SNPs and 396 published markers for developing the genetic map. As a result, a second-generation genetic map comprising 1328 marker loci including novel 625 CKAMs, 314 TOG-SNPs and 389 published marker loci with an average inter-marker distance of 0.59?cM was constructed. Detailed analyses of 1064 mapped loci of this second-generation chickpea genetic map showed a higher degree of synteny with genome of Medicago truncatula, followed by Glycine max, Lotus japonicus and least with Vigna unguiculata. Development of these cost-effective CKAMs for SNP genotyping will be useful not only for genetics research and breeding applications in chickpea, but also for utilizing genome information from other sequenced or model legumes. 相似文献

Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is the third most important cool season food legume, cultivated in arid and semi-arid regions of the world. The goal of this study was to develop novel molecular markers such as microsatellite or simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers from bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC)-end sequences (BESs) and diversity arrays technology (DArT) markers, and to construct a high-density genetic map based on recombinant inbred line (RIL) population ICC 4958 (C. arietinum)×PI 489777 (C. reticulatum). A BAC-library comprising 55,680 clones was constructed and 46,270 BESs were generated. Mining of these BESs provided 6,845 SSRs, and primer pairs were designed for 1,344 SSRs. In parallel, DArT arrays with ca. 15,000 clones were developed, and 5,397 clones were found polymorphic among 94 genotypes tested. Screening of newly developed BES-SSR markers and DArT arrays on the parental genotypes of the RIL mapping population showed polymorphism with 253 BES-SSR markers and 675 DArT markers. Segregation data obtained for these polymorphic markers and 494 markers data compiled from published reports or collaborators were used for constructing the genetic map. As a result, a comprehensive genetic map comprising 1,291 markers on eight linkage groups (LGs) spanning a total of 845.56 cM distance was developed (http://cmap.icrisat.ac.in/cmap/sm/cp/thudi/). The number of markers per linkage group ranged from 68 (LG 8) to 218 (LG 3) with an average inter-marker distance of 0.65 cM. While the developed resource of molecular markers will be useful for genetic diversity, genetic mapping and molecular breeding applications, the comprehensive genetic map with integrated BES-SSR markers will facilitate its anchoring to the physical map (under construction) to accelerate map-based cloning of genes in chickpea and comparative genome evolution studies in legumes. 相似文献

An intraspecific linkage map of the chickpea genome based on STMS as anchor markers, was established using an F(2) population of chickpea cultivars with contrasting disease reactions to Ascochyta rabiei (Pass.) Lab. At a LOD-score of 2.0 and a maximum recombination distance of 20 cM, 51 out of 54 chickpea-STMS markers (94.4%), three ISSR markers (100%) and 12 RGA markers (57.1%) were mapped into eight linkage groups. The chickpea-derived STMS markers were distributed throughout the genome, while the RGA markers clustered with the ISSR markers on linkage groups LG I, II and III. The intraspecific linkage map spanned 534.5 cM with an average interval of 8.1 cM between markers. Sixteen markers (19.5%) were unlinked, while l1 chickpea-STMS markers (20.4%) deviated significantly ( P < 0.05) from the expected Mendelian segregation ratio and segregated in favor of the maternal alleles. However, ten of the distorted chickpea-STMS markers were mapped and clustered mostly on LG VII, suggesting the association of these loci in the preferential transmission of the maternal germ line. Preliminary comparative mapping revealed that chickpea may have evolved from Cicer reticulatum, possibly via inversion of DNA sequences and minor chromosomal translocation. At least three linkage groups that spanned a total of approximately 79.2 cM were conserved in the speciation process. 相似文献

Cicer arietinum L. (chickpea) is the third most important food legume crop. We have generated the draft sequence of a desi‐type chickpea genome using next‐generation sequencing platforms, bacterial artificial chromosome end sequences and a genetic map. The 520‐Mb assembly covers 70% of the predicted 740‐Mb genome length, and more than 80% of the gene space. Genome analysis predicts the presence of 27 571 genes and 210 Mb as repeat elements. The gene expression analysis performed using 274 million RNA‐Seq reads identified several tissue‐specific and stress‐responsive genes. Although segmental duplicated blocks are observed, the chickpea genome does not exhibit any indication of recent whole‐genome duplication. Nucleotide diversity analysis provides an assessment of a narrow genetic base within the chickpea cultivars. We have developed a resource for genetic markers by comparing the genome sequences of one wild and three cultivated chickpea genotypes. The draft genome sequence is expected to facilitate genetic enhancement and breeding to develop improved chickpea varieties. 相似文献

Abstract Chickpea is an important grain legume of the semi arid tropics and warm temperate zones, and forms one of the major components of human diet. However, a narrow genetic base of cultivated chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) has hindered the progress in realizing high yield gains in breeding programs. Furthermore, various abiotic and biotic stresses are the major bottlenecks for increasing chickpea productivity. Systematic collection and evaluation of wild species for useful traits has revealed presence of a diverse gene pool for tolerance to the biotic and abiotic stresses. Relationships among the species of genus Cicer are presented based on crossability, karyotype and molecular markers. The reproductive barriers encountered during interspecific hybridization are also examined. Recent information on genetic linkage maps, comparison of isozymes The functional markers generated from genic sequence (e.g. ESTs) have definite advantage over the markers generated from anonymous random regions of the genome, because they are completely linked to desired trait alleles (Anderson and Lubberstedt, 2003; Varshney et al., 2005; Buhariwala et al., 2005). At ICRISAT, Buhariwala et al. (2005) have developed an EST library from two very closely related chickpea genotypes (Cicer arietinum). A total of 106 EST-based markers were designed from 477 sequences with functional annotations and tested on C. arietinum. Forty-four EST markers were polymorphic when screened across nine Cicer species (including the cultivated species) and were used to study the species relationship. Most of the species clustered as reported in the previous studies, and hence it further supported the classification of primary (C. arietinum, C. echinospermum and C. reticulatum), secondary (C. pinnatifidum, C bijugum and C. judaicum), and tertiary (C. yamashitae, C. chrossanicum and C. cuneatum) gene-pools. A large proportion of EST alleles (45%) were only present in one or two of the accessions tested whilst the others were represented in up to twelve of the accessions tested. 相似文献

The identification of markers in legume pasture crops, which can be associated with traits such as protein and lipid production, disease resistance, and reduced pod shattering, is generally accepted as an important strategy for improving the agronomic performance of these crops. It has been demonstrated that many quantitative trait loci (QTLs) identified in one species can be found in other plant species. Detailed legume comparative genomic analyses can characterize the genome organization between model legume species (e.g., Medicago truncatula, Lotus japonicus) and economically important crops such as soybean (Glycine max), pea (Pisum sativum), chickpea (Cicer arietinum), and lupin (Lupinus angustifolius), thereby identifying candidate gene markers that can be used to track QTLs in lupin and pasture legume breeding. LegumeDB is a Web-based bioinformatics resource for legume researchers. LegumeDB analysis of Medicago truncatula expressed sequence tags (ESTs) has identified novel simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers (16 tested), some of which have been putatively linked to symbiosome membrane proteins in root nodules and cell-wall proteins important in plant-pathogen defence mechanisms. These novel markers by preliminary PCR assays have been detected in Medicago truncatula and detected in at least one other legume species, Lotus japonicus, Glycine max, Cicer arietinum, and (or) Lupinus angustifolius (15/16 tested). Ongoing research has validated some of these markers to map them in a range of legume species that can then be used to compile composite genetic and physical maps. In this paper, we outline the features and capabilities of LegumeDB as an interactive application that provides legume genetic and physical comparative maps, and the efficient feature identification and annotation of the vast tracks of model legume sequences for convenient data integration and visualization. LegumeDB has been used to identify potential novel cross-genera polymorphic legume markers that map to agronomic traits, supporting the accelerated identification of molecular genetic factors underpinning important agronomic attributes in lupin. 相似文献

Ascochyta blight, caused by the fungus Ascochyta rabiei (Pass.) Lab., is one of the most devastating diseases of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) worldwide. Research was conducted to map genetic factors for resistance to ascochyta blight using a linkage map constructed with 144 simple sequence repeat markers and 1 morphological marker (fc, flower colour). Stem cutting was used to vegetatively propagate 186 F2 plants derived from a cross between Cicer arietinum L. 'ICCV96029' and 'CDC Frontier'. A total of 556 cutting-derived plants were evaluated for their reaction to ascochyta blight under controlled conditions. Disease reaction of the F1 and F2 plants demonstrated that the resistance was dominantly inherited. A Fain's test based on the means and variances of the ascochyta blight reaction of the F3 families showed that a few genes were segregating in the population. Composite interval mapping identified 3 genomic regions that were associated with the reaction to ascochyta blight. One quantitative trait locus (QTL) on each of LG3, LG4, and LG6 accounted for 13%, 29%, and 12%, respectively, of the total estimated phenotypic variation for the reaction to ascochyta blight. Together, these loci controlled 56% of the total estimated phenotypic variation. The QTL on LG4 and LG6 were in common with the previously reported QTL for ascochyta blight resistance, whereas the QTL on LG3 was unique to the current population. 相似文献

Analysis of genome organization, composition and microsynteny using 500 kb BAC sequences in chickpea
Rajesh PN O'Bleness M Roe BA Muehlbauer FJ 《TAG. Theoretical and applied genetics. Theoretische und angewandte Genetik》2008,117(3):449-458
The small genome size (740 Mb), short life cycle (3 months) and high economic importance as a food crop legume make chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) an important system for genomics research. Although several genetic linkage maps using various markers and genomic tools have become available, sequencing efforts and their use are limited in chickpea genomic research. In this study, we explored the genome organization of chickpea by sequencing approximately 500 kb from 11 BAC clones (three representing ascochyta blight resistance QTL1 (ABR-QTL1) and eight randomly selected BAC clones). Our analysis revealed that these sequenced chickpea genomic regions have a gene density of one per 9.2 kb, an average gene length of 2,500 bp, an average of 4.7 exons per gene, with an average exon and intron size of 401 and 316 bp, respectively, and approximately 8.6% repetitive elements. Other features analyzed included exon and intron length, number of exons per gene, protein length and %GC content. Although there are reports on high synteny among legume genomes, the microsynteny between the 500 kb chickpea and available Medicago truncatula genomic sequences varied depending on the region analyzed. The GBrowse-based annotation of these BACs is available at http://www.genome.ou.edu/plants_totals.html . We believe that our work provides significant information that supports a chickpea genome sequencing effort in the future. 相似文献

Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is an important food legume crop, particularly for the arid regions including Indian subcontinent. Considering the detrimental effect of drought, temperature and salt stress on crop yield, efforts have been initiated in the direction of developing improved varieties and designing alternate strategies to sustain chickpea production in adverse environmental conditions. Identification of genes that confer abiotic stress tolerance in plants remains a challenge in contemporary plant breeding. The present study focused on the identification of abiotic stress responsive genes in chickpea based on sequence similarity approach exploiting known abiotic stress responsive genes from model crops or other plant species. Ten abiotic stress responsive genes identified in other plants were partially amplified from eight chickpea genotypes and their presence in chickpea was confirmed after sequencing the PCR products. These genes have been functionally validated and reported to play significant role in stress response in model plants like Arabidopsis, rice and other legume crops. Chickpea EST sequences available at NCBI EST database were used for the identification of abiotic stress responsive genes. A total of 8,536 unique coding long sequences were used for identification of chickpea homologues of these abiotic stress responsive genes by sequence similarity search (BLASTN and BLASTX). These genes can be further explored towards achieving the goal of developing superior chickpea varieties providing improved yields under stress conditions using modern molecular breeding approaches. 相似文献

Several repetitive elements are known to be present in the genome of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) including satellite DNA and En/Spm transposons as well as two dispersed, highly repetitive elements, CaRep1 and CaRep2. PCR was used to prove that CaRep1, CaRep2, and previously isolated CaRep3 of C. arietinum represent different segments of a highly repetitive Ty3-gypsy-like retrotransposon (Metaviridae) designated CaRep that makes up large parts of the intercalary heterochromatin. The full sequence of this element including the LTRs and untranslated internal regions was isolated by selective amplification. The restriction pattern of CaRep was different within the annual species of the genus Cicer, suggesting its rearrangement during the evolution of the genus during the last 100 000 years. In addition to CaRep, another LTR and a non-LTR retrotransposon family were isolated, and their restriction patterns and physical localization in the chickpea genome were characterized. The LINE-like element CaLin is only of comparatively low abundance and reveals a considerable heterogeneity. The Ty1-copia-like element (Pseudoviridae) CaTy is located in the distal parts of the intercalary heterochromatin and adjacent euchromatic regions, but it is absent from the centromeric regions. These results together with earlier findings allow to depict the distribution of retroelements on chickpea chromosomes, which extensively resembles the retroelement landscape of the genome of the model legume Medicago truncatula Gaertn. 相似文献

Hybridization sites of an rDNA probe coding for the 18S, 5.8S, and 26S genes were detected on lentil and chickpea somatic chromosomes using fluorescent in situ hybridization. One pair of hybridization sites was detected in cultivated lentil Lens culinaris L. and wild lentil L. orientalis (Boiss.) Hand.-Mazz., and in both the hybridization sites of the ribosomal probe correspond to the secondary constriction. In cultivated chickpea Cicer arietinum three pairs of rDNA sites were detected and in the wild C. reticulatum two pairs were detected. The karyotypic relationship between the cultivated C. arietinum and its wild progenitor C. reticulatum is discussed. 相似文献

AIMS: To identify several strains of Mesorhizobium amorphae and Mesorhizobium tianshanense nodulating Cicer arietinum in Spain and Portugal, and to study the symbiotic genes carried by these strains. METHODS AND RESULTS: The sequences of 16S-23S intergenic spacer (ITS), 16S rRNA gene and symbiotic genes nodC and nifH were analysed. According to their 16S rRNA gene and ITS sequences, the strains from this study were identified as M. amorphae and M. tianshanense. The type strains of these species were isolated in China from Glycyrrhiza pallidiflora and Amorpha fruticosa nodules, respectively, and are not capable of nodulating chickpea. These strains carry symbiotic genes, phylogenetically divergent from those of the chickpea isolates, whose nodC and nifH genes showed more than 99% similarity with respect to those from Mesorhizobium ciceri and Mesorhizobium mediterraneum, the two common chickpea nodulating species in Spain and Portugal. CONCLUSIONS: The results from this study showed that different symbiotic genes have been acquired by strains from the same species during their coevolution with different legumes in distinct geographical locations. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: A new infrasubspecific division named biovar ciceri is proposed within M. amorphae and M. tianshanense to include the strains able to effectively nodulate Cicer arietinum. 相似文献

Two alleles of a chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) ethylene receptor-like sequence (CaETR-1) were sequence-characterized using synteny analysis with genome sequences of Medicago truncatula L. The full length of the sequence obtained in the accession FLIP84-92C resistant to ascochyta blight (CaETR-1a) span 4,428?bp, including the polyadenylation signal in the 3'-untranslated region (UTR), whereas it has a 730?bp deletion in the 3'-UTR region in the susceptible accession PI359075 (CaETR-1b). The deduced protein belongs to subfamily II of the ethylene receptors and contains all the domains that define EIN4 homologs in Arabidopsis. The EIN4-like sequence (CaETR-1) has been mapped using a recombinant inbred line (RIL) population derived from an intraspecific cross between ILC3279 and WR315, resistant and susceptible to blight, respectively. The locus was located in LGIVa of the genetic map, flanked by markers NCPGR91 and GAA47 (at distances of 11.3 and 17.9?cM, respectively). This is the first potentially functional sequence identified under a QTL peak for ascochyta blight resistance in chickpea (QTL(AR1)). This EIN4-like (CaETR-1) sequence explained up to 33.8% of the total phenotypic variation. This sequence could be directly related to blight resistance, together with other QTLs that have been found to be involved in resistance to this major chickpea disease. 相似文献

An integrated molecular marker map of the chickpea genome was established using 130 recombinant inbred lines from a wide cross
between a cultivar resistant to fusarium wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum Schlecht. emend. Snyd. &. Hans f. sp. ciceri (Padwick) Snyd & Hans, and an accession of Cicer reticulatum (PI 489777), the wild progenitor of chickpea. A total of 354 markers were mapped on the RILs including 118 STMSs, 96 DAFs,
70 AFLPs, 37 ISSRs, 17 RAPDs, eight isozymes, three cDNAs, two SCARs and three loci that confer resistance against different
races of fusarium wilt. At a LOD-score of 4.0, 303 markers cover 2077.9 cM in eight large and eight small linkage groups at
an average distance of 6.8 cM between markers. Fifty one markers (14.4%) were unlinked. A clustering of markers in central
regions of linkage groups was observed. Markers of the same class, except for ISSR and RAPD markers, tended to generate subclusters.
Also, genes for resistance to races 4 and 5 of fusarium wilt map to the same linkage group that includes an STMS and a SCAR
marker previously shown to be linked to fusarium wilt race 1, indicating a clustering of several fusarium-wilt resistance
genes around this locus. Significant deviation from the expected 1 : 1 segregation ratio was observed for 136 markers (38.4%,
P<0.05). Segregation was biased towards the wild progenitor in 68% of the cases. Segregation distortion was similar for all
marker types except for ISSRs that showed only 28.5% aberrant segregation. The map is the most extended genetic map of chickpea
currently available. It may serve as a basis for marker-assisted selection and map-based cloning of fusarium wilt resistance
genes and other agronomically important genes in future.
