Highly variable SSR markers in Douglas-fir: Mendelian inheritance and map locations

Twenty-two highly variable SSR markers were developed in Douglas-fir [Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco] from five SSR-enriched genomic libraries. Fifteen PCR primer pairs amplified a single codominant locus, while seven primer pairs occasionally amplified two loci. The Mendelian inheritance of all 22 SSRs was confirmed via segregation analyses in several Douglas-fir families. The mean observed heterozygosity and the mean number of alleles per locus were 0.855 (SE=0.020) and 23 (SE=1.6), respectively. Twenty markers were used in genetic linkage analysis and mapped to ten known linkage groups. Because of their high polymorphism and unambiguous phenotypes, 15 single-locus markers were selected as the most suitable for DNA fingerprinting and parentage analysis. Only three SSRs were sufficient to achieve an average probability of exclusion from paternity of 0.998 in a Douglas-fir seed orchard block consisting of 59 parents.Communicated by O. Savolainen     

Identification and genetic mapping of highly polymorphic microsatellite loci from an EST database of the septoria tritici blotch pathogen Mycosphaerella graminicola

A database of 30,137 EST sequences from Mycosphaerella graminicola, the septoria tritici blotch fungus of wheat, was scanned with a custom software pipeline for di- and trinucleotide units repeated tandemly six or more times. The bioinformatics analysis identified 109 putative SSR loci, and for 99 of them, flanking primers were developed successfully and tested for amplification and polymorphism by PCR on five field isolates of diverse origin, including the parents of the standard M. graminicola mapping population. Seventy-seven of the 99 primer pairs generated an easily scored banding pattern and 51 were polymorphic, with up to four alleles per locus, among the isolates tested. Among these 51 loci, 23 were polymorphic between the parents of the mapping population. Twenty-one of these as well as two previously published microsatellite loci were positioned on the existing genetic linkage map of M. graminicola on 13 of the 24 linkage groups. Most (66%) of the primer pairs also amplified bands in the closely related barley pathogen Septoria passerinii, but only six were polymorphic among four isolates tested. A subset of the primer pairs also revealed polymorphisms when tested with DNA from the related banana black leaf streak (Black Sigatoka) pathogen, M. fijiensis. The EST database provided an excellent source of new, highly polymorphic microsatellite markers that can be multiplexed for high-throughput genetic analyses of M. graminicola and related species.     

Development and Characterization of EST-SSR Markers in the Eastern Oyster <Emphasis Type="Italic">Crassostrea virginica</Emphasis>

Simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers were developed from expressed sequence tags (ESTs) in the eastern oyster (Crassostrea virginica). ESTs of the eastern oyster were downloaded from GenBank and screened for SSRs with at least eight units of dinucleotide or five units of tri-, tetra-, penta-, and hexa-nucleotide repeats. The screening of 9101 ESTs identified 127 (1.4%) SSR-containing sequences. Primers were designed for 88 SSR-containing ESTs with good and sufficient flanking sequences. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification was successful for 71 primer pairs, including 19 (27%) pairs that amplified fragments longer than expected sizes, probably due to introns. Sixty-six pairs that produced fragments shorter than 800 bp were screened for polymorphism in five oysters from three populations via polyacrylamide gels, and 53 of them (80%) were polymorphic. Fifty-three polymorphic SSRs were labeled and genotyped in 30 oysters from three populations via an automated sequencer. Five of the SSRs amplified more than two fragments per oyster, suggesting locus duplication. The remaining 48 SSRs had 2 alleles per individual, including 11 with null alleles. In the 30 oysters analyzed, the SSRs had an average of 9.3 alleles per locus, ranging from 2 to 24. Forty-three loci segregated in a family with 100 progeny, with nine showing significant deviation from Mendelian ratios (three after Bonferroni correction). Seventy percent of the loci were successfully amplified in C. rhizophorae and 34% in C. gigas. This study demonstrates that ESTs are valuable resources for the development of SSR markers in the eastern oyster, and EST-derived SSRs are more transferable across species than genomic SSRs.     

Development of simple sequence repeat markers from expressed sequence tags of the black tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon)

In this study, we describe the development of expressed sequence tag-simple sequence repeat markers from expressed sequence tags of the black tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon) deposited in public sequence databases. A total of 46 primer pairs were designed and screened on 26 individuals of P. monodon from a natural population. Of these, 16 primer pairs showed polymorphic profiles with between two and five alleles per locus. The average unbiased and direct count heterozygosities were 0.4662 and 0.3516, respectively. Cross-amplification was tested with five individuals of Penaeus vannamei and polymorphic products were detected at five loci.     

Characteristics of single- and multi-copy microsatellites from Pinus radiata

 Dinucleotide microsatellites were isolated from Pinus radiata using both a standard genomic library and libraries enriched for microsatellites. Locus-specific primers were designed to amplify 43 unique microsatellites. Thirty two of these loci had interpretable PCR patterns, 11 of which were polymorphic in a screen of 19 P. radiata individuals; all 11 polymorphic loci contained at least 17 repeats in the sequenced plasmid. Six of the eleven primer pairs amplified multiple fragments per individual (3–8), suggesting that these loci were present in multiple copies in the genome. Genotyping a 48-tree P. radiata production population with seven of the most polymorphic microsatellites revealed an average of 17 bands per locus (the multi-copy microsatellites were treated as one locus). When tested on known pedigrees, both single and multi-copy microsatellites exhibited co-dominant inheritance and Mendelian segregation. Two loci had null alleles and one locus had a high frequency of non-parental alleles, suggesting a high mutation rate. Eight of these microsatellites, including five multi-copy loci, were placed on a partially constructed P. radiata genetic map. Four of the five multi-copy microsatellites had two or more sets of alleles that mapped to the same locus, and the fifth mapped to two unlinked loci. All seven tested primer pairs amplified PCR products from other species of hard pine, three amplified products from soft-pine species, and one amplified bands in other conifers.

Development of thirty new polymorphic microsatellite primers for <Emphasis Type="Italic">Paeonia suffruticosa</Emphasis>

Four new microsatellite primer pairs were developed in tree peony (Paeonia suffruticosa) based on the database mining and other twenty-six primer pairs by fast isolation by AFLP of sequences containing repeats (FIASCO) method. The polymorphism of each locus was further evaluated in 40 individuals of one population plus 5 tree peony related species. The number of alleles per locus ranged from 3 to 7 and the expected (H_e) and observed (H_o) heterozygosity at each locus ranged from 0.42 to 0.78 and 0.28 to 0.59, respectively. These microsatellite markers will be useful for investigating genetic diversity and studies of population genetic structure of tree peony.     

Development and characterization of simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers and their use in determining relationships among Lycopersicon esculentum cultivars

The simple sequence repeat (SSR) or microsatellite marker is currently the preferred molecular marker due to its highly desirable properties. The aim of this study was to develop and characterize more SSR markers because the number of SSR markers currently available in tomato is very limited. Five hundred DNA sequences of tomato were searched for SSRs and analyzed for the design of PCR primers. Of the 158 pairs of SSR primers screened against a set of 19 diverse tomato cultivars, 129 pairs produced the expected DNA fragments in their PCR products, and 65 of them were polymorphic with the polymorphism information content (PIC) ranging from 0.09 to 0.67. Among the polymorphic loci, 2-6 SSR alleles were detected for each locus with an average of 2.7 alleles per locus; 49.2% of these loci had two alleles and 33.8% had three alleles. The vast majority (93.8%) of the microsatellite loci contained di- or tri-nucleotide repeats and only 6.2% had tetra- and penta-nucleotide repeats. It was also found that TA/AT was the most frequent type of repeat, and the polymorphism information content (PIC) was positively correlated with the number of repeats. The set of 19 tomato cultivars were clustered based on the banding patterns generated by the 65 polymorphic SSR loci. Since the markers developed in this study are primarily from expressed sequences, they can be used not only for molecular mapping, cultivar identification and marker-assisted selection, but for identifying gene-trait relations in tomato.     

Development of intron length polymorphism markers in cowpea [Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.] and their transferability to other Vigna species

Expressed sequence tag (EST) sequences available in the public databases provide a cost-effective and valuable genomic resource for the development of molecular markers. Introns which are non-coding DNA sequences of the gene could be used as potential molecular markers as they are highly variable compared to the coding sequences. This study reports the development of intron length polymorphism markers in cowpea [Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.]. The ESTs of cowpea were aligned with genomic sequences of Arabidopsis and soybean to predict the position and number of introns in cowpea. Of the 110 PCR primer pairs designed to amplify the intronic regions, 98 primer pairs resulted in successful amplification and were identified as cowpea intron length polymorphism (CILP) markers. Out of the 45 randomly selected CILP markers, 36?% markers produced length variation in the ten cowpea genotypes, collectively yielding 33 alleles with an average of 2.0 alleles/locus. The polymorphism information content of the CILP markers ranged from 0.18 to 0.64 with an average of 0.34. Of the 98 CILP markers, 93 markers (95?%) showed transferability to other Vigna species. Dendrograms based on CILP markers clearly distinguished the cowpea genotypes as well as other Vigna species, demonstrating the utility of CILP markers in genetic diversity and phylogenetic studies. These CILP markers will be very useful in the genome analysis and marker-assisted breeding of cowpea and other Vigna species.
