Evaluation of Brassica germplasm for field resistance against clubroot (Plasmodiophora brassicae Woron)

Of the 124 germplasm accession of oil seed Brassicas screened under field condition against clubroot disease (Plasmodiophora brassicae), 80% were susceptible and 17, 3, 1 and 1 of Brassica juncea, Brassica rapa var. toria, B.rapa var. yellow sarson and B. rapa, respectively, were resistant.     

Selection for resistance to clubroot (Plasmodiophora brassicae) in marrowstem kale (Brassica oleracea var. acephala L.)

Ninety-six cultivars of Brassica oleracea were screened for clubroot resistance in a seedling test using two populations of Plasmodiophora brassicae. The most resistant cultivars were kales. Sixteen resistant marrowstem kale cultivars of diverse geographical origin were used to start a selection programme for clubroot resistance. Four generations of selection, involving single plants, half-sib and full-sib families, reduced a disease index averaged over six clubroot populations from 41.2 to 12.5. This was lower than the most resistant cultivar in the original population, cv. Mixti 28.8, and as good as a German landrace of cabbage noted for its resistance, Bohmerwaldkohl 10.5. In comparison, the mean of five kale controls, cvs Bittern, Canson, Condor, Kestrel and Merlin, was 61.1 and the value for the most susceptible control, cabbage cv. Septa, was 89.3. In the final assessment, there were no clubroot population x B. oleracea genotype interactions and in the initial assessment of cultivars there were only small interactions which could be removed by an angular transformation of the data. It was concluded that a high level of non-differential resistance had been achieved and that it may prove durable. It was also concluded from a small field trial that this level of resistance would prevent serious yield losses in practice.     

RAPD markers on seed bulks efficiently assess the genetic diversity of a Brassica oleracea L. collection

 The concept of a core collection was elaborated to fit the necessity of optimizing the management, for both conservation and use, of genetic resources in sizeable collections. This approach requires an analysis of how the genetic variability is structured among the accessions. The large number of heterogeneous populations in our collection of Brassica oleracea makes genetic diversity studies based on plant-to-plant analysis impracticable. To overcome this limitation, the variability analysis by RAPD on seed bulks was investigated for its efficiency in assessing the structure of the genetic diversity of this collection. The optimal bulk size and the bulking or sampling variation were evaluated with bulks of different size and with replicated samples. A mixture of known genotypes was also used to characterise the band detection in bulks, and to compare the plant-to-plant and the bulk methods. Forty seeds were chosen to represent each population. In such a bulk, the detection of bands depended on the proportion of the genotype they were derived from in the mixture. Intense and frequent bands were detected in the bulk with a 15% detection limit. The observed bulking or sampling variation within populations was smaller than the variation between populations, leading to an efficient separation of populations with a clustering of all samples of the same population. The distances calculated from bulk data were highly correlated with the distances based on the plant-to-plant analysis. We demonstrated that RAPD on seed bulks can be used to describe the genetic diversity between populations. Received: 27 August 1998 / Accepted: 29 September 1998     

Molecular-mapping analysis in Brassica napus using isozyme, RAPD and RFLP markers on a doubled-haploid progeny

We have undertaken the construction of a Brassica napus genetic map with isozyme (4%), RFLP (26.5%) and RAPD (68%) markers on a 152 lines of a doubled-haploid population. The map covers 1765 cM and comprises 254 markers including three PCR-specific markers and a morphological marker. They are assembled into 19 linkage groups, covering approximatively 71% of the rapeseed genome. Thirty five percent of the studied markers did not segregate according to the expected Mendelian ratio and tended to cluster in eight specific linkage groups. In this paper, the structure of the genetic map is described and the existence of non-Mendelian segregations in linkage analysis as well as the origins of the observed distortions, are discussed. The mapped RFLP loci corresponded to the cDNAs already used to construct B. napus maps. The first results of intraspecific comparative mapping are presented.     

Identification of two loci for resistance to clubroot (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Plasmodiophora brassicae</Emphasis> Woronin) in <Emphasis Type="Italic">Brassica rapa</Emphasis> L.

In an analysis of 114 F₂ individuals from a cross between clubroot-resistant and susceptible lines of Brassica rapa L., 'G004' and 'Hakusai Chukanbohon Nou 7' (A9709), respectively, we identified two loci, Crr1 and Crr2, for clubroot (caused by Plasmodiophora brassicae Woronin) resistance. Each locus segregated independently among the F₂ population, indicating that the loci reside on a different region of chromosomes or on different chromosomes. Genetic analysis showed that each locus had little effect on clubroot resistance by itself, indicating that these two loci are complementary for clubroot resistance. The resistance to clubroot was much stronger when both loci were homozygous for resistant alleles than when they were heterozygous. These results indicate that clubroot resistance in B. rapa is under oligogenic control and at least two loci are necessary for resistance.Communicated by H.C. Becker     

Comparison of RAPD and RFLP genetic markers in determining genetic similarity among Brassica oleracea L. genotypes

Genetic similarity among 45 Brassica Oleracea genotypes was compared using two molecular markers, random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs). The genotypes included 37 broccolis (var. italica), five cauliflowers (var. botrytis) and three cabbages (var. capitata) which represented a wide range of commercially-available germplasm, and included open-pollinated cultivars, commercial hybrids, and inbred parents of hybrid cultivars. Fifty-six polymorphic RFLP bands and 181 polymorphic RAPD bands were generated using 15 random cDNA probes and 62 10-mer primers, respectively. The objectives were to compare RFLP and RAPD markers with regard to their (1) sampling variance, (2) rank correlations of genetic distance among sub-samples, and (3) inheritance. A bootstrap procedure was used to generate 200 random samples of size n (n=2,3,5,... 55) independently from the RAPD and RFLP data sets. The coefficient of variance (CV) was estimated for each sample. Pooled regressions of the coefficient of variance on bootstrap sample size indicated that the rate of decrease in CV with increasing sample size was the same for RFLPs and RAPDs. The rank correlation between the Nei-Li genetic similarity values for all pairs of genotypes (990) based on RFLP and RAPD data was 0.745. Differences were observed between the RFLP and RAPD dendrograms of the 45 genotypes. Overlap in the distributions of rank correlations between independent sub-samples from the RAPD data set, compared to correlations between RFLP and RAPD sub-samples, suggest that observed differences in estimation of genetic similarity between RAPDs and RFLPs is largely due to sampling error rather than due to DNA-based differences in how RAPDs and RFLPs reveal polymorphisms. A crossing algorithm was used to generate hypothetical banding patterns of hybrids based on the genotypes of the parents. The results of this study indicate that RAPDs provide a level of resolution equivalent to RFLPs for detemination of the genetic relationships among genotypes.     

Evaluation of RFLP and RAPD markers in a comparison of Brassica napus breeding lines

RFLP and RAPD markers were evaluated and compared for their ability to determine genetic relationships in a set of three B. napus breeding lines. Using a total of 50 RFLP and 92 RAPD markers, the relatedness between the lines was determined. In total, the RFLP and the RAPD analysis revealed more than 500 and 400 bands, respectively. The relative frequencies of loci with allele differences were estimated from the band data. The RFLP and RAPD marker sets detected very similar relationships among the three lines, consistent with known pedigree data. Bootstrap analyses showed that the use of approximately 30 probes or primers would have been sufficient to achieve these relationships. This indicates that RAPD markers have the same resolving power as RFLP markers when used on exactly the same set of B. napus genotypes. Since RAPD markers are easier and quicker to use, these markers may be preferred in applications where the relationships between closely-related breeding lines are of interest. The use of RAPD markers in fingerprinting applications may, however, not be warranted, and this is discussed in relation to the reliability of RAPD markers.     

Interspecific hybrids between Brassica napus L. and B. oleracea L. developed by embryo culture

Summary Interspecific hybrids between Brassica napus and B. oleracea are difficult to produce, and previous attempts to transfer economic characters from one species to the other have largely been unsuccessful. In these studies, oilseed rape cv. Tower (2n38) (B. napus) was crossed with broccoli and kale (2n18) (B. oleracea), and hybrid plants were developed from embryos in culture by either organogenesis or somatic embryogenesis. In rape × broccoli, F₁ plants were regenerated from hybrid embryos and the plants produced viable selfed seeds. F₅ plants (2n38) homozygous for white flower colour were selected for high oil content (47%) and Line 15; a selection from these plants produced fertile hybrids with rape, broccoli and kale without embryo culture. In reciprocal crosses between oilseed rape cv. Tower and an aphid resistant diploid kale, 28 and 56 chromosome F₁ hybrid plants were regenerated from somatic embryos. The 56 chromosome plants were self-fertile and it was concluded from F₂ segregation ratios that a single dominant gene controls resistance to cabbage aphid in kale. The 28 chromosome F₁'s were self-sterile, but these and the 56 chromosome F₁'s could be backcrossed to rape and kale. A cross between the F₁ (2n56) and a forage rape resulted in the selection of a cabbage aphid (Brevicoryne brassicae L.) resistant line (Line 3). Both Line 15 and Line 3 can serve as bridges for gene interchange between B. campestris, B. napus and B. oleracea, which has not been possible hitherto. Hybridisations between rape and tetraploid kale produced F₁ plants with 37 chromosomes. One F₂ plant possessed coronal scales and the inheritance was shown to be controlled by a single recessive gene unlinked to petal colour.This paper is dedicated to Mr. T. P. Palmer, a colleague and close friend who retired from the DSIR as Assistant Director of the Crop Research Division in September 1984     

Ultrastructure of the stylet pathway of Brevicoryne brassicae in host plant tissue, Brassica oleracea

Stylets and salivary sheaths of the cabbage aphid, B. brassicae (L.) were studied in leaf tissue of B. oleracea (L.) with Transmission Electron Microscopy. Examples of inter cellular penetration are described by sections of stylets and saliva in air spaces or between adjacent cell walls. Intracellular penetrations are represented by stylets and saliva within damaged cells. High resolution microscopy reveals a third route, where stylets and saliva lie between cell walls and plasmalemmas. This route is called intramural.The results are discussed with particular reference to signals of Electrical Penetration Graphs and at wider level to aphid-host plant selection and phloem location.

Transfer of resistance to clubroot (Plasmodiophora brassicae) to swedes {Brassica napus L. var. napobrassica Peterm) from B. rapa

In 1975, tests with UK populations of Plasmodiophora brassicae not only revealed a lack of effective clubroot resistance in swedes (Brassica napus), but also the outstanding resistance of the European Clubroot Differential (ECD)04 (B. rapa). It was, therefore, decided to transfer the resistance genes from ECD04 to swedes, using the most pathogenic UK population of clubroot (C56) available for screening purposes. An autotetraploid form of ECD04 was crossed with tetraploid kale (B. oleracea) using the latter as female parent. One of the euploid, 2n = 38, hybrids secured by embryo rescue in 1976 was crossed to the swede cultivars Marian and Ruta Øtofte. Three further backcrosses of clubroot resistant plants to lines derived from modern swede cultivars were made over the period 1980 to 1982. Selfing commenced in 1983 to produce F₂ populations. From F₃ to F₅ there was family selection for yield and agronomic characters, as well as single plant selection for clubroot resistance. In 1991, the six most promising F₅ families were multiplied for subsequent evaluation in replicated yield trials in Dundee. The most promising family entered official trials at the beginning of 1993 and, 2 years later, was added to the National List as cv. Invitation and granted Plant Breeders' Rights. The first certified seed was sold in 1996, 20 years after the original synthetic B. napus was produced. The breeding programme provided evidence for only one of the three postulated dominant genes in ECD04 being required for resistance to C56 and also good evidence of differential resistance from tests with other clubroot populations. Hence, whilst the differential resistance in cv. Invitation should prove useful in the UK in the immediate future, it may not be durable in the longer term. It is, therefore, argued that the next and more difficult goal to achieve should be to introduce high levels of non-differential resistance from B. oleracea.     

Secretory tapetum of Brassica oleracea L.: polarity and ultrastructural features

Summary The ultrastructure of the secretory, binucleate tapetum of Brassica oleracea in the micro spore mother cell (MMC) stage through to the mature pollen stage is reported. The tapetal cells differentiate as highly specialized cells whose development is involved in lipid accumulation in their final stage. They start breaking down just before anther dehiscence. Nuclei with dispersed chromatin, large nucleoli and many ribosomes in the cytoplasm characterize the tapetal cells. The wall-bearing tapetum phase ends at the tetrade stage. The dissolution of tapetal walls begins from the inner tangential wall oriented towards the loculus and proceeds gradually along the radial walls to the outer tangential one. The plasmodesmata transversing the radial walls between tapetal cells persist until the mature microspore, long after loss of the inner tangential wall. After wall dissolution, the tapetal protoplasts retain their integrity and position within the anther locule. The tapetal cell membrane is in direct contact with the exine of the microspores/pollen grains and forms tubular evaginations that increase its surface area and appear to be involved in the translocation of solutes from the tapetal cells to the microspores/ pollen grains. The tapetal cells exhibit a polarity expressed by spatial differentiation in the radial direction.     

Identification of RAPD markers linked to a fertility restorer gene for theOgura radish cytoplasmic male sterility of rapeseed (Brassica napus L.)

Bulked segregant analysis was employed to identify random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers linked to the restorer gene (Rfo) used in theOgura radish cytoplasmic male sterility of rapeseed. A total of 138 arbitrary 10-mer oligonucleotide primers were screened on the DNA of three pairs of bulks, each bulk corresponding to homozygous restored and male sterile plants of three segregating populations. Six primers produced repeatable polymorphisms between paired bulks. DNA from individual plants of each bulk was then used as a template for amplification with these six primers. DNA polymorphisms generated by four of these primers were found to be completely linked to the restorer gene with the polymorphic DNA fragments being associated either with the fertility restorer allele or with the sterility maintainer allele. Pairwise cross-hybridization demonstrated that the four polymorphic DNA fragments did not share any homology. Southern hybridization of labelled RAPD fragments on digested genomic DNA from the same three pairs of bulks revealed fragments specific to either the male sterile bulks or to the restored bulks and a few fragments common to all bulks, indicating that the amplified sequences are low copy. The four RAPD fragments that were completely linked to the restorer locus have been cloned and sequenced to develop sequence characterized amplified regions (SCARs). This will facilitate the construction of restorer lines used in breeding programs and is the first step towards map-based cloning of the fertility restorer allele.

Studies on the Karyotypes and Pollen Morphology of Brassica oleracea L.and B. alboglabra Bailey

The karyotypes and pollen morphology of Brassica oleracea L. and B. alboglabra Bailey were studied by preparing mitotic chromosome specimens and scanning electron microscope. The results are as follows: 1. the karyotypes of the 4 varieties in B. oleracea L. and of B. alboglabra Bailey are similar, all with the same chromosome number (2n=18) satellite number (one pair) and a type of karyotype, but different in respect to satellite position and karyotype symmetry 2. The pollengrains of 2 varieties of B. oleracea L. are 3-colporate and reticulate, distinctly different from those in B. alboglabra, which are pantoporate with smaller lumina. Based on the results we tend to regard that B. alboglabra Bailey is an independent species.     

Microsatellite markers for genome analysis in Brassica. II. Assignment of rapeseed microsatellites to the A and C genomes and genetic mapping in Brassica oleracea L.

Microsatellites are highly polymorphic and efficient markers for the analysis of plant genomes. Primer specificity, however, may restrict the applicability of these markers even between closely related species for comparative mapping studies. We have demonstrated that the majority of microsatellites identified in oilseed rape (Brassica napus L; AC genome) correspond to loci which can be easily assigned to the A and C progenitor genomes. A study with 63 primer pairs has shown that 54% detect two loci, one from each genome, while 25% and 21%, respectively, are either A or C genome-specific. The distribution of rapeseed microsatellites in the C genome was investigated by genetic mapping in Brassica oleracea L. Ninety two dinucleotide microsatellites were screened for polymorphism in an F₂ population derived from a cross between collard and cauliflower, for which an RFLP map has been constructed previously. Thirty three primer pairs (35.7%) have yielded either unspecific or no PCR products whereas the remaining primer pairs amplified one or more distinct loci. The level of polymorphism found in the mapping population was 49.2%. A total of 29 primer pairs disclosed 34 loci of which 31 are evenly distributed on 8 of the 9 B. oleracea linkage groups. For the remaining three markers linkage could not be established. Our results showed that microsatellite markers from the composite genome of B. napus can serve as a useful marker system in genetic studies and for plant-breeding objectives in B. oleracea.

Tagging and combining bacterial blight resistance genes in rice using RAPD and RFLP markers

Four genes of rice,Oryza sativa L., conditioning resistance to the bacterial blight pathogenXanthomonas oryzae pv.oryzae (X. o. pv.oryzae), were tagged by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers. No recombinants were observed betweenxa-5 and RFLP marker lociRZ390, RG556 orRG207 on chromosome 5.Xa-3 andXa-4 were linked to RFLP locusXNpb181 at the top of chromosome 11, at distances of 2.3 cM and 1.7 cM, respectively. The nearest marker toXa-10, also located on chromosome 11, was the RAPD locusO07 ₂₀₀₀ at a distance of 5.3 cM. From this study, the conventional map [19, 28] and two RFLP linkage maps of chromosome 11 [14, 26] were partially integrated. Using the RFLP and RAPD markers linked to the resistance genes, we selected rice lines homozygous for pairs of resistance genes,Xa-4 +xa-5 andXa-4 +Xa-10. Lines carryingXa-4 +xa-5 andXa-4 +Xa-10 were evaluated for reaction to eight strains of the bacterial blight pathogen, representing eight pathotypes and three genetic lineages. As expected, the lines carrying pairs of genes were resistant to more of the isolates than their single-gene parental lines. Lines carryingXa-4 +xa-5 were more resistant to isolates of race 4 than were either of the parental lines (quantitative complementation). No such effects were seen forXa-4 +Xa-10. Thus, combinations of resistance genes provide broader spectra of resistance through both ordinary gene action expected and quantitative complementation.     

Genetic variation within and among different cultivars and landraces of Brassica campestris L. and B. oleracea L. based on isozymes

Genetic variation based on isozymes was studied in 43 landraces and cultivars of Brassica campestris from China, 4 cultivars of B. campestris from Sweden and 1 from India, and 5 cultivars of B. oleracea from Sweden and 1 from China (B. alboglabra). A total of 17 isozyme loci was studied, 10 of these were polymorphic in B. campestris and 6 were polymorphic in B. oleracea. The level of heterozygosity seemed to be reduced in the Swedish cultivars compared to the Chinese landraces and cultivars of B. campestris. The level of heterozygosity in B. oleracea was even lower than that in the Swedish cultivars of B. campestris. A phylogeny of the cultivars and landraces of B. campestris showed that the B. campestris var yellow sarson cultivar, originating from India, deviated significantly from the other cultivars of B. campestris. A phylogeny of the cultivars of B. oleracea confirmed the expectations that the cultivar B. alboglabra was not closely related to the cultivated forms of B. oleracea.     

Use of Brassica callus culture to induce sporulation in Alternaria brassicae (Berk.) Sacc.

A non-sporulating isolate of Alternaria brassicae, inoculated on callus culture of Brassica juncea cv. Kranti, colonized the callus and produced spores. When captafol, a fungicide, was added (100 mg/l) to the callus culture medium, if effectively checked fungal contamination and saprophytic growth of A. brassicae on culture medium, without adversely affecting callus growth or establishment of dual culture.
