Flower color of soybean is primarily controlled by genes W1, W3, W4, Wm, and Wp. In addition, the soybean gene symbol W2, w2 produces purple-blue flower in combination with W1. This study was conducted to determine the genetic control of purple-blue flower of cultivar (cv). Nezumisaya. F(1) plants derived from a cross between Nezumisaya and purple flower cv. Harosoy had purple flowers. Segregation of the F(2) plants fitted a ratio of 3 purple:1 purple-blue. F(3) lines derived from F(2) plants with purple-blue flowers were fixed for purple-blue flowers, whereas those from F(2) plants with purple flowers fitted a ratio of 1 fixed for purple flower:2 segregating for flower color. These results indicated that the flower color of Nezumisaya is controlled by a single gene whose recessive allele is responsible for purple-blue flower. Complementation analysis revealed that flower color of Nezumisaya is controlled by W2. Linkage mapping revealed that W2 is located in molecular linkage group B2. Sap obtained from banner petals of cvs. with purple flower had a pH value of 5.73-5.77, whereas that of cvs. with purple-blue flower had a value of 6.07-6.10. Our results suggested that W2 is responsible for vacuolar acidification of flower petals. 相似文献

The Wm locus of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] controls flower color. Dominant Wm and recessive wm allele of the locus produce purple and magenta flower, respectively. A putative full-length cDNA of flavonol synthase (FLS), gmfls1 was isolated by 5′ RACE and end-to-end PCR from a cultivar Harosoy with purple flower (WmWm). Sequence analysis revealed that gmfls1 consisted of 1,208 nucleotides encoding 334 amino acids. It had 59–72% homology with FLS proteins of other plant species. Conserved dioxygenase domains A and B were found in the deduced polypeptide. Sequence comparison between Harosoy and Harosoy-wm (magenta flower mutant of Harosoy; wmwm) revealed that they differed by a single G deletion in the coding region of Harosoy-wm. The deletion changed the subsequent reading frame resulting in a truncated polypeptide consisting of 37 amino acids that lacked the dioxygenase domains A and B. Extracts of E. coli cells expressing gmfls1 of Harosoy catalyzed the formation of quercetin from dihydroquercetin, whereas cell extracts expressing gmfls1 of Harosoy-wm had no FLS activity. Genomic Southern analysis suggested the existence of three to four copies of the FLS gene in the soybean genome. CAPS analysis was performed to detect the single-base deletion. Harosoy and Clark (WmWm) exhibited longer fragments, while Harosoy-wm had shorter fragments due to the single-base deletion. The CAPS marker co-segregated with genotypes at Wm locus in a F2 population segregating for the locus. Linkage mapping using SSR markers revealed that the Wm and gmfls1 were mapped at similar position in the molecular linkage group F. The above results strongly suggest that gmfls1 represents the Wm gene and that the single-base deletion may be responsible for magenta flower color.

In soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.), the w4-mutable line that harbors the w4-m allele was identified in 1983. It was proposed that this line contained an autonomous transposable element at the W4 locus, which is a major locus controlling the biosynthesis of anthocyanin. The w4-m allele can revert to the W4 allele that produces the wild-type phenotype, or sometimes to other alleles that produce intermediate phenotypes. Mutant plants that produce pale flowers were identified among the progeny of a single germinal revertant event from the w4-mutable line. Through genetic analysis, we established that the pale-flower mutation was conditioned by a new allele (w4-p) at the W4 locus. The w4-p allele is dominant to the w4 allele but recessive to the W4 allele, and the w1 allele has an epistatic effect on the w4-p allele. The pale-mutant line (w4-pw4-p) was designated as Genetic Type Collection number T369. An F2 mapping population derived from the cross of Minsoy (W4W4) x T369 (w4-pw4-p) was used to map the W4/w4-p locus, using simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. The W4 locus was located at one end of molecular linkage group D2, 2.3 cM from the SSR marker Satt386 and close to the nearby telomere. 相似文献

W1, W3, W4, and Wm genes control flower color, whereas T and Td genes control pubescence color in soybean. W1, W3, Wm, and T are presumed to encode flavonoid 3'5'-hydroxylase (EC 1.14.13.88), dihydroflavonol 4-reductase (EC 1.1.1.219), flavonol synthase (EC 1.14.11.23), and flavonoid 3'-hydroxylase (EC 1.14.13.21), respectively. The objective of this study was to determine the structure of the primary anthocyanin, flavonol, and dihydroflavonol in flower petals. Primary component of anthocyanin in purple flower cultivars Clark (W1W1 w3w3 W4W4 WmWm TT TdTd) and Harosoy (W1W1 w3w3 W4W4 WmWm tt TdTd) was malvidin 3,5-di-O-glucoside with delphinidin 3,5-di-O-glucoside as a minor compound. Primary flavonol and dihydroflavonol were kaempferol 3-O-gentiobioside and aromadendrin 3-O-glucoside, respectively. Quantitative analysis of near-isogenic lines (NILs) for flower or pubescence color genes, Clark-w1 (white flower), Clark-w4 (near-white flower), Clark-W3w4 (dilute purple flower), Clark-t (gray pubescence), Clark-td (near-gray pubescence), Harosoy-wm (magenta flower), and Harosoy-T (tawny pubescence) was carried out. No anthocyanins were detected in Clark-w1 and Clark-w4, whereas a trace amount was detected in Clark-W3w4. Amount of flavonols and dihydroflavonol in NILs with w1 or w4 were largely similar to the NILs with purple flower suggesting that W1 and W4 affect only anthocyanin biosynthesis. Amount of flavonol glycosides was substantially reduced and dihydroflavonol was increased in Harosoy-wm suggesting that Wm is responsible for the production of flavonol from dihydroflavonol. The recessive wm allele reduces flavonol amount and inhibits co-pigmentation between anthocyanins and flavonols resulting in less bluer (magenta) flower color. Pubescence color genes, T or Td, had no apparent effect on flavonoid biosynthesis in flower petals. 相似文献

Allelism and molecular mapping of soybean necrotic root mutants. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Mutability of the w4 flower color locus in soybean, Glycine max (L.) Merr., is conditioned by an allele designated w4-m. Germinal revertants recovered among self-pollinated progeny of mutable plants have been associated with the generation of necrotic root mutations, chlorophyll-deficiency mutations, and sterility mutations. A total of 24 necrotic root mutant lines were generated from a total of 24 independent reversion events at the w4-m locus. The initial mutable population included 4 mutable categories for w4-m, designated (1) low frequency of early excisions, (2) low frequency of late excisions, (3) high frequency of early excisions, and (4) high frequency of late excisions. These mutable categories were based upon flower phenotype, i.e., somatic tissue. A total of 22 of 24 necrotic root mutations occurred from germinal reversions classified in the high frequency of excision categories. Of these 22 mutants, 14 came from early excisions and 8 came from late excisions. These necrotic root mutants were allelic to 6 previously identified necrotic root mutants derived from the study of germinal revertants, i.e., gene tagging studies, chemical mutagenesis, and "spontaneous" occurrences from genetic crosses. Thus, all 30 necrotic root mutants in soybean are allelic. An F2 mapping population from the cross of Minsoy (Rn1 Rn1) x T328 (rn1 rn1) was used to map the Rn1 locus using simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. The Rn1 locus was located between Satt288 and Satt612 on molecular linkage group G. 相似文献

A CAPS marker to assist selection of tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) resistance in pepper. 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
The hypersensitive resistance to tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) in pepper is determined by a single dominant gene (resistant allele: Tsw) in several Capsicum chinense genotypes. In order to facilitate the selection for this resistance, four RAPD (among 250 10-mer primers tested) were found linked to the Tsw locus using the bulked segregant analysis and 153 F2 individuals. A close RAPD marker was converted into a codominant cleaved amplified polymorphic sequence (CAPS) using specific PCR primers and restriction enzymes. This CAPS marker is tightly linked to Tsw (0.9 +/- 0.6 cM) and is helpful for marker-assisted selection in a wide range of genetic intercrosses. 相似文献

Development of a CAPS marker for the Pvr4 locus: a tool for pyramiding potyvirus resistance genes in pepper. 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
The Pvr4 resistance gene in pepper confers a complete resistance to the three pathotypes of potato virus Y (PVY) and to pepper mottle virus (PepMoV). In order to use this gene in a marker-assisted selection (MAS) program and to permit the pyramiding of several potyvirus resistance genes in the same cultivar, tightly linked amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) markers were obtained by the bulked segregant analysis method. Eight linked AFLP markers were mapped in an interval from 2.1 +/- 0.8 to 13.8 +/- 2.9 cM around this locus. The closest codominant AFLP marker was converted into a codominant CAPS (cleaved amplified polymorphic sequence) marker using data from the alignment of the two allele sequences. We have further characterized the relevance of the CAPS marker for MAS programs in different pepper breeding lines. 相似文献

At least 19 single recessive gene yellow leaf mutants and one duplicate recessive gene mutant have been described in soybean. This study was conducted to associate a yellow leaf mutant, y10, with a specific soybean chromosome by using primary trisomics (2n = 41). Seven soybean primary trisomics were hybridized as female parent with genetic stock strain, T161, carrying y10. F(1) disomic and primary trisomic plants were identified cytologically. One disomic (control) and all primary trisomic plants were allowed to self-pollinate and F(2) populations were classified for green versus yellow leaf mutant. The F(2) population of Triplo 3 segregated in a 17:1 ratio, while a disomic (3:1) ratio was observed with Triplo 8-, 17-, 18-, and 20-derived F(2) populations, suggesting that the y10 locus is on chromosome 3. The y10 locus was examined with four simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers (Satt584, Sat_033, Satt387, and Satt022) from molecular linkage group (MLG) N and y10 was found linked with Satt022. Therefore we confirmed the association of MLG N with chromosome 3. The possible association of y10 with Triplo 16 and Triplo 19 are discussed. 相似文献

大豆种皮色相关基因研究进展 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
大豆种皮色在从野生大豆到栽培大豆的演变过程中逐渐从黑色变成黄色,是重要的形态标记,因此,大豆种皮色相关基因研究无论对进化理论还是育种实践都具有重要的意义。种皮颜色是通过各种花色苷的沉积而形成的。虽然很多植物色素沉积的分子调控机制比较明晰,但大豆中控制种皮颜色形成的基因尚未被完全了解。文章综述了控制大豆种皮色基因与位点的相关研究进展,主要有I、T、W1、R、O 5个经典遗传位点,其中I位点被定位在第8号染色体(A2连锁群)一个富含查尔酮合成酶(CHS)的区域,CHS基因在大豆中是多基因家族且同源性较高;定位于第6号染色体(C2连锁群)T位点的基因F3’H已被克隆和转基因验证,由于碱基缺失导致所编码的氨基酸缺少了保守域GGEK,从而不能与血红素结合而丧失功能;R位点定位在第9号染色体(K连锁群)A668-1与K387-1两标记之间,可能是R2R3类MYB转录因子,也可能是UDP类黄酮3-O糖基转移酶;O位点定位在第8号染色体(A2连锁群)Satt207与Satt493两标记之间,其分子特性尚不清楚;W1位点可能由F3’5’H基因控制遗传。 相似文献

We report here the genetic identification of a female partial-sterile mutant derived from soybean mutant L67-3483. L67-3483, which originated from the cultivar Clark after X-ray irradiation, is male and female fertile. All F1 plants in reciprocal pollinations of L67-3483 with 'Clark', 'Minsoy', or 'BSR 101' were female partial sterile. Partial sterility is expressed in the heterozygous condition at a single locus and upon self-pollination this locus exhibits a 1:1 segregation pattern. This locus is located on the terminus of the soybean molecular linkage group D1b+W, between simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers Satt157 and Satt266, and is linked to each by 5.3 and 1.2 cM, respectively. This gene is transmitted through both female and male gametes and there was no segregation distortion of SSR markers linked to this gene. We concluded that this female partial-sterile gene is a new mutation class, and differs from the previously reported mutation classes in soybean, i.e., sporophytic mutation, gametophytic female-specific mutation, and general gametophytic mutation. Restriction of recombination around the mutant gene suggested that this gene is located near or within (a) small inversion(s) or adjacent to (a) chromosomal deletion(s). 相似文献

The Rxp locus in soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] that conditions reaction to bacterial pustule was mapped by simple sequence repeat (SSR) marker analysis. A population of 116 F4-derived lines from a cross between the resistant parent Young and the susceptible parent PI 416937 was used for mapping. The Rxp locus was mapped 3.9 cM from Satt372 and 12.4 cM from Satt014 on linkage group D2. Linkage associations were confirmed by identifying a close association between the SSR genotype at each locus identified as flanking Rxp and the bacterial pustule reaction of individual lines derived from a population different from the one used for mapping. A molecular pedigree analysis showed that bacterial pustule-resistant cultivars inherited the resistance gene rxp from the ancestral cultivar CNS based on their consistent genotypic pattern at flanking marker loci. Based on the results of the study, marker-assisted selection for rxp would be very effective. 相似文献

Pungency owing to the presence of capsaicinoids is a unique character of pepper (Capsicum spp.). Capsaicinoids are produced in the placenta and it has long been known that a single dominant gene, C, is required for pungent genotypes to produce capsaicinoids. We mapped C to pepper chromosome 2 in a cross between a pungent Capsicum frutescens wild accession and a non-pungent Capsicum annuum bell pepper. This position confirmed results from earlier studies. The RFLP marker TG 205 cosegregated with C and two additional RFLP markers were also located within 1 cM. The recessive allele at the C locus is used in breeding programs around the world focused on very diverse germplasm, hence any of these tightly linked markers may be of value as potential sources of useful markers for marker-assisted selection. To demonstrate this point, we developed a PCR-based CAPS (cleaved amplified polymorphic sequence) marker linked to C using the sequence of the Capsicum fibrillin gene located 0.4 cM from C. The use of molecular markers for high-throughput screening for the c allele in pepper breeding programs is discussed. 相似文献

Disease resistance gene candidates (RGCs) belonging to the nucleotide-binding site (NBS) superfamily have been cloned from numerous crop plants using highly conserved DNA sequence motifs. The aims of this research were to (i) isolate genomic DNA clones for RGCs in cultivated sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) and (ii) map RGC markers and Pl1, a gene for resistance to downy mildew (Plasmopara halstedii (Farl.) Berl. & de Toni) race 1. Degenerate oligonucleotide primers targeted to conserved NBS DNA sequence motifs were used to amplify RGC fragments from sunflower genomic DNA. PCR products were cloned, sequenced, and assigned to 11 groups. RFLP analyses mapped six RGC loci to three linkage groups. One of the RGCs (Ha-4W2) was linked to Pl1, a downy mildew resistance gene. A cleaved amplified polymorphic sequence (CAPS) marker was developed for Ha-4W2 using gene-specific oligonucleotide primers. Downy mildew susceptible lines (HA89 and HA372) lacked a 276-bp Tsp5091 restriction fragment that was present in downy mildew resistant lines (HA370, 335, 336, 337, 338, and 339). HA370 x HA372 F2 progeny were genotyped for the Ha-4W2 CAPS marker and phenotyped for resistance to downy mildew race 1. The CAPS marker was linked to but did not completely cosegregate with Pl1 on linkage group 8. Ha-4W2 was found to comprise a gene family with at least five members. Although genetic markers for Ha-4W2 have utility for marker-assisted selection, the RGC detected by the CAPS marker has been ruled out as a candidate gene for Pl1. Three of the RGC probes were monomorphic between HA370 and HA372 and still need to be mapped and screened for linkage to disease resistance loci. 相似文献

Off-flavour generated in soy products is ascribed to soybean seed lipoxygenase-1, lipoxygenase-2 and lipoxygenase-3, controlled by single dominant genes Lox1, Lox2 and Lox3, respectively. Lox2 locus has already been mapped and reported to be tightly linked with Lox1 locus. The objective of the present study was to map Lox1 locus by investigating the SSR markers reported to be linked with Lox2 locus and the neighbouring SSR markers in two mapping populations of 116 and 91 plants developed from LSb1 × PI408251 and JS335 × PI408251, respectively. Parental polymorphism was surveyed using SSR markers Sat_074, Satt522 reported to be linked with Lox2 locus and the SSR markers in its proximity. F2:3 seeds were used for assaying lipoxygenase-1 to identify the genotype of the F2 individuals. SSR marker Satt656 was found to be tightly linked with Lox1 locus at distance of 3.6 and 4.8 cM in the mapping population of LSb1 × PI408251 and JS335 × PI408251, respectively. SSR marker Satt656 can be useful for marker assisted selection for transferring recessive allele of lipoxygenase-1 in the background of high yielding soybean genotypes. 相似文献

Soybean male-sterile, female-sterile mutant genes have been identified by genetic and cytological studies. The St8 gene has been identified as an asynaptic mutation resulting in male and female sterility. This mutant gene was derived from a gene-tagging study using the soybean w4-mutable line. In this report we identified the genetic map position of st8 via restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. The St8 gene mutation was located between RFLP marker E107 and SSR markers Satt132, Sct_065, and Satt414 on molecular linkage group J and linked to each by 7.8 cM and 3.4 cM, respectively. 相似文献

Northeast of China is the main soybean production area, drought and low-temperature tolerance are both main factors involved
in reducing soybean yield and limiting planting regions, the most effective way to solve this problem is to breed cultivars
with drought and low-temperature tolerance. A set of the BC2F3 lines was constructed with Hongfeng 11 as recurrent parent and Harosoy as donor parent, and screened in drought and low-temperature
condition at the germination stage. Related QTLs were obtained by Chi-test and ANOVA analysis with genotypic and phenotypic
data. Eighteen QTLs of drought tolerance and 23 QTLs of low-temperature tolerance were detected. Among them, 12 QTLs were
correlated with both drought and low-temperature tolerance, which showed a partial genetic overlap between drought and low-temperature
tolerance at the germination stage in soybean. Among the 12 genetic overlap QTLs, Satt253, Satt513, Satt693, Satt240, Satt323,
and Satt255 were detected by at least one method for both drought and low-temperature tolerance. Satt557, Satt452, Sat_331,
Satt338, Satt271, and Satt588 were detected by only one analysis method. The QTLs detected above were significant loci for
drought or low-temperature tolerance in soybean. This will play an important role in MAS for development of both drought and
low-temperature tolerance variety. 相似文献

The spontaneous fasciation mutation generates novel developmental diversity in cultivated soybean, Glycine max (L.) Merrill. An increased apical dominance in the mutant inhibits axillary buds, causes a branchless phenotype, and restricts reproduction to shoot apices. The fasciation mutation is encoded by a recessive (f) allele at a single locus. The mutation, despite its importance in soybean development, has no locus assignment on previously reported molecular maps of soybean. A population of 70 F(2) progeny was derived from a cross between 'Clark 63' and the fasciation mutant. More than 700 molecular markers (amplified restriction fragment length polymorphisms [AFLPs], random amplified polymorphic DNAs [RAPDs], restriction fragment length polymorphisms [RFLPs], and simple sequence repeats [SSRs]) were used in mapping of the fasciation phenotype. Twenty linkage groups (LGs) corresponding to the public soybean molecular map are represented on the Clark 63 × fasciation mutant molecular map that spans 3050 centimorgans (cM). The f locus was mapped on LG D1b+W and linked with two AFLPs and four SSR markers (Satt005, Satt141, Satt600, and Satt703). No linkage was found between the f locus and several cDNA polymorphic loci between the wild type and the mutant. The known map position of the f locus and demonstration of the mutant phenotype from early postembryonic throughout reproductive stages provide an excellent resource for investigations of molecular mechanisms affecting soybean ontogeny. 相似文献

Kunitz trypsin inhibitor, a proteinaceous antinutritional factor present in soybean seeds, is responsible for inferior nutritional quality of raw soybean and incompletely processed soy products. The objective of the present investigation was to validate the SSR markers (Satt228 and Satt409) reported to be linked to Ti locus in an Indian soybean population generated from the cross between soybean cultivar LSb1 (TiTi) and PI542044 (titi). Parental polymorphism was surveyed using Satt409, Satt228 and 5 SSR markers in the neighbouring genomic region of Ti locus. A portion of the cotyledon of F2 seeds was used for analyzing the presence or absence of kunitz trypsin inhibitor polypeptide electrophoretically while the remaining portion containing the embryo was used for raising the F2 plants (104) for the development of mapping population. The SSR marker Satt228 reported to be tightly linked with Ti locus was not found to be polymorphic for the parents used in our study. Satt409 was found to be linked with Ti locus at 4.7 cM. Besides, a new marker Satt538 was found to be linked with Ti locus at a distance of 17.8 cM. Thus, the SSR marker Satt409 can be useful for Marker Assisted Selection for transferring titi allele in the background of Indian soybean genotypes. 相似文献

RAPD and RFLP markers tightly linked to the locus controlling carnation (Dianthus caryophyllus) flower type 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

Flower doubleness as a breeding characteristic is of major importance in carnation (Dianthus caryophyllus), one of the major cut-flowers sold worldwide, since flower architecture is of the utmost value in ornamentals. Based on
the number of petals per flower, carnations are grouped into “single”, “semi-double” and “double” flower types. The first
have five petals and are easily distinguishable, but of no economic value to the carnation industry. Flowers of standard and
spray varieties, which constitute the largest market share, are usually of the double and semi-double type, respectively.
These flower types are not easily distinguishable due to phenotypic overlaps caused by environmental conditions. To study
the inheritance of this trait, several progeny segregating for flower type were prepared. Based on the number of single-flower
type fullsibs among the offspring, we found that this phenotype is expressed only in plants homozygous for the recessive allele
and that a dominant mutation in this allele causes an increase in petal number. Using random decamer primers, we identified
a random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) marker which is tightly linked to this recessive allele. The RAPD marker was cloned
and used to generate a restriction fragment length polymorphic (RFLP) marker. This RFLP marker could discriminate with 100%
accuracy between the semi-double and double- flower phenotypes in carnations of both Mediterranean and American groups. The
advantages of RFLP over RAPD markers and their applicability to markerassisted selection in carnation are discussed.
