 Prediction of the means and genetic variances in segregating generations could help to assess the breeding potential of base populations. In this study, we investigated whether the testcross (TC) means and variances of F3 progenies from F1 crosses in European maize can be predicted from the TC means of their parents and F1 crosses and four measures of parental genetic divergence: genetic distance (GD) determined by 194 RFLP or 691 AFLPTM 1 markers, mid-parent heterosis (MPH), and absolute difference between the TC means of parents (∣P1−P2∣). The experimental materials comprised six sets of crosses; each set consisted of four elite inbreds from the flint or dent germplasm and the six possible F1 crosses between them, which were evaluated for mid-parent heterosis. Testcross progenies of these materials and 20 random F3 plants per F1 cross were produced with a single-cross tester from the opposite heterotic group and evaluated in two environments. The characters studied were plant height, dry matter content and grain yield. The genetic distance between parent lines ranged between 0.17 and 0.70 for RFLPs and between 0.14 and 0.57 for AFLPs in the six sets. Testcross-means of parents, F1 crosses, and F3 populations averaged across the six crosses in a particular set generally agreed well for all three traits. Bartlett’s test revealed heterogeneous TC variances among the six crosses in all sets for plant height, in four sets for grain yield and in five sets for dry matter content. Correlations among the TC means of the parents, F1 crosses, and F3 populations were highly significant and positive for all traits. Estimates of the TC variance among F3 progenies for the 36 crosses showed only low correlations with the four measures of parental genetic divergence for all traits. The results demonstrated that for our material, the TC means of the parents or the parental F1 cross can be used as predictors for the TC means of F3 populations. However, the prediction of the TC variance remains an unsolved problem. Received: 4 August 1997 / Accepted: 17 November 1997  相似文献

Studies of quantitative trait loci based on genetic linkage maps require the establishment of a mapping population. Permanent mapping populations are more ideal than temporary ones because they can be used repeatedly. However, there has been no reported permanent sporophyte population of economically important kelp species. Based on the characteristics of the kelp life cycle, we proposed a method to establish, and then constructed experimentally, an “immortalized F2” (IF2) population of Undaria pinnatifida. Doubled-haploid “female” and “male” sporophytes were obtained through the parthenogenesis of a female gametophyte clone and the selfing of a “monoicous” gametophyte clone (originally male), respectively, and they were used as the parents. The F1 hybrid line was generated by crossing the female and male gametophytes derived from the respective female and male parents. Full-sibling F2 gametophyte clones, consisting of 260 females and 260 males, were established from an F1 hybrid sporophyte. Thirty-five females and 35 males were randomly selected and paired to give rise to an IF2 population containing 35 crossing lines. A parentage analysis using 10 microsatellite markers confirmed the accuracy of the IF2 population and indicated the feasibility of this method. This proposed method may be adapted for use in other kelp species, and thus, it will be useful for genetic studies of kelp.  相似文献

Summary A study was made of the nature of variation and changes in association for characters related to yield, development and disease resistance in two sets of progenies one set derived through biparental mating (A-series) and the other by traditional inbreeding (selfing) from the F2 onwards (T-series), in a 22 × 22 diallel of dwarf derivatives of Pennisetum typhoides S & H. Comparison of means and variances within and between the two groups of progenies (A and T-series) and with those of released hybrids (HB-1, HB-2, HB-3, HB-4) for seventeen characters (six related to development, six to productivity, three to vegetative growth and one each to earliness and disease incidence) showed significant variation among the lines of the two series for synchrony of tillering, earliness, disease incidence, chlorophyll depth, grain hairiness, tiller number, plant height, length of earhead, grain yield and grain weight. The A-series selections were significantly superior to the T-series for most of the characters, indicating the effectiveness of selection in biparental matings compared with selection in selfed progenies for these traits. Many of the A-series (220 out of 800) selections were also superior to the existing released hybrids.Changes in the magnitude and nature of association among twelve important characters in the two populations were more favourable in the biparental matings: of 66 possible correlation coefficients examined, 25 cases were found with changes in favour of selections from biparental matings (A-series). These changes were probably due to the breakage of unfavourable linkages and changes in phase of linkage, and indicate the usefulness of biparental matings in the simultaneous improvement of the population for several attributes.  相似文献

Mixed linear model approach was proposed for mapping QTLs with the digenic epistasis and QTL by environment (QE) interaction as well as additive and dominant effects. Monte Carlo simulations indicated that the proposed method could provide unbiased estimations for both positions and genetic main effects of QTLs, as well as unbiased predictions for QE interaction effects. A method was suggested for predicting heterosis based on individual QTL effects. The immortalized F2 (IF2) population constructed by random mating among RI or DH lines is appropriate for mapping QTLs with epistasis and their QE interaction. Based on the models and methodology proposed, we developed a QTL mapping software, QTLMapper 2.0 on the basis of QTLmapper 1.0, which is suitable for analyzing populations of DH, RIL, F2 and IF2. Data of thousand grain weight of IF2 population with 240 lines derived from elite hybrid rice Shanyou 63 were analyzed as a worked example.  相似文献

Analysis of a combined F1/F2 diallel cross in wheat   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
Analysis of a conventional diallel cross offers only perfect-fit estimates of the genetic components of variation, but no test for the goodness of fit of the model based on these estimates. When F2 progenies are available, however, combining F1 and F2 diallels in a single experiment overcomes these problems. Least-squares estimates of these components can be calculated, errors attached to them and the goodness of fit of the resultant model tested. This analysis was applied to data on the severity of yellow rust infection in an F1/F2 half-diallel cross among eight bread wheat lines adapted to the East African highlands. After removing two interacting arrays, genetic analysis indicated that an additive/dominance model of gene action satisfactorily explained the variation observed among the remaining six parents and their progenies, in both the individual F1 and F2 diallels and the combined F1/F2 diallel. Resistance to yellow rust was dominant to susceptibility and genes for increased resistance were more frequent. Received: 25 May 2000 / Accepted: 31 July 2000  相似文献

Two cDNA clones encoding F1F0-ATPase inhibitor proteins, which are loosely associated with the F1 part of the mitochondrial F1F0-ATPase, were characterized from rice (Oryza sativa L. cv. Nipponbare). A Northern hybridization showed that the two genes (designated as IF 1 -1 and IF 1 -2) are transcribed in all the organs examined. However, the steady-state mRNA levels varied among organs. A comparison of the deduced amino acid sequences of the two IF 1 genes and the amino acid sequence of the mature IF1 protein from potato revealed that IF1-1 and IF1-2 have N-terminal extensions with features that are characteristic of a mitochondrial targeting signal. To determine the subcellular localization of the gene products, the IF1-1 or IF1-2 proteins were fused in frame to the green fluorescent protein (GFP) or the fused GFP-β-glucuronidase, and expressed transiently in onion or dayflower epidermal cells. Localized fluorescence was detected in mitochondria, confirming that the two IF1 proteins are targeted to mitochondria. Received: 9 July 1999 / Accepted: 17 August 1999  相似文献

Root traits are important in improving nutrient and water use efficiency. Vertical root pulling resistance (VRPR) has been shown to be closely related to root system characteristics in maize (Zea mays L.). In the present study, two genetic populations derived from the same parents, one containing 218 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) and the other containing 187 advanced backcross BC4F3 lines, were genotyped using 184 SSR markers and evaluated for VRPR, grain yield (GY), stover yield (SY), and nitrogen uptake (Nup) under field conditions over 2 years. Our aims were (1) to locate QTLs associated with VRPR, SY, GY, and Nup, (2) to determine whether QTL detection is consistent between the BC4F3 and RIL populations, and (3) to identify backcross lines harboring favorable VRPR QTLs for use in future breeding programs. Using composite interval mapping (CIM), 12 and 17 QTLs were detected in BC4F3 and RIL populations, respectively. An important QTL region in bin 6.02 within the interval umc1006-umc1257 was found to control VRPR, SY, and Nup in both populations. These favorable alleles were contributed by the large-rooted parent Ye478. A significant positive correlation was detected between VRPR, SY, and Nup, but not between VRPR and GY. Backcross lines harboring VRPR QTLs could be useful germplasm for developing near isogenic lines (NILs) and for map-based cloning of genes controlling root growth.  相似文献

Because transgenic sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.) is being developed for Africa, we investigated the potential for transgenes to spread to conspecific wild/weedy sorghum populations in Ethiopia, which is considered the centre of origin of cultivated sorghum. In the current study, the extent of outcrossing, and uniparental and biparental inbreeding were investigated in seven wild/weedy sorghum populations collected at elevations ranging from 631 to 1709 m. Based on allele frequency data of 1120 progenies and 140 maternal plants from five polymorphic microsatellite markers, outcrossing rates were estimated using standard procedures. The average multilocus outcrossing rate was 0.51, with a range of 0.31–0.65 among populations, and the family outcrossing rate was in the extreme range of 0 to 100%. The highest outcrossing (t m?=?0.65) was recorded in a weedy population that was intermixed with an improved crop variety in Abuare (Wello region). It was also observed that the inbreeding coefficient of the progenies (F p) tend to be more than the inbreeding coefficient of both their maternal parents (F m) and the level of inbreeding expected at equilibrium (F eq), which is a characteristic of predominantly outbreeding species. Biparental inbreeding was evident in all populations and averaged 0.24 (range = 0.10–0.33). The high outcrossing rates of wild/weedy sorghum populations in Ethiopia indicate a high potential for crop genes (including transgenes) to spread within the wild pool. Therefore, effective risk management strategies may be needed if the introgression of transgenes or other crop genes from improved cultivars into wild or weedy populations is deemed to be undesirable.  相似文献

Summary Phenotypic and genotypic correlation coefficients and path-coefficients were studied in the biparental (BIPs) and F3 self progenies of the two wheat crosses. A comparison of correlation coefficients in the BIPs and the F3's revealed that as many as twelve new significant correlations were noticed in case of the BIPs in cross I although some of them occurred in the undesirable direction. On the other hand, only three new correlations were observed in the BIPs of cross II, although as many as fifteen correlations were not significant. Results suggested that intermating in the F2 was effective in breaking the linkages. Path-coefficient analysis further revealed that the direct effect of tillers/ plant on grain yield was important and remained unchanged in both populations of cross I. In cross II, the direct effect of tillers/plants on grain yield was also high and it increased in the BIPs. Intermating seemed to have influenced considerably both the direct and indirect effects.  相似文献

Inheritance of chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) was examined in F1 progenies derived from three crosses and three corresponding reciprocal crosses betweenStellaria porsildii andS. longifolia. Chloroplast DNA restriction fragments were analyzed using methods of nonradioactive digoxigenin-11-dUTP labeling and chemiluminescent detection with Lumi-Phos 530. Distinct interspecific restriction fragment polymorphisms were identified and used to demonstrate the mode of cpDNA inheritance. Mode of cpDNA inheritance differed among crosses. Two crosses in whichS. porsildii, SP2920-21, was the maternal parent exhibited three different types of plastids, maternal, paternal and biparental, among the F1 hybrids, suggesting a biparental cpDNA inheritance and plastid sorting-out inStellaria.  相似文献

F0F1ATPsynthase is now known to be expressed as a plasma membrane receptor for several extracellular ligands. On hepatocytes, ecto–F0F1ATPsynthase binds apoA–I and triggers HDL endocytosis concomitant with ATP hydrolysis. Considering that inhibitor protein IF1 was shown to regulate the hydrolytic activity of ecto–F0F1ATPsynthase and to interact with calmodulin (CaM) in vitro, we investigated the subcellular distributions of IF1, calmodulin (CaM), OSCP and β subunits of F0F1ATPsynthase in HepG2 cells. Using immunofluorescence and Western blotting, we found that around 50% of total cellular IF1 is localized outside mitochondria, a relevant amount of which is associated to the plasma membrane where we also found Ca2+–CaM, OSCP and β. Confocal microscopy showed that IF1 colocalized with Ca2+–CaM on plasma membrane but not in mitochondria, suggesting that Ca2+–CaM may modulate the cell surface availability of IF1 and thus its ability to inhibit ATP hydrolysis by ecto–F0F1ATPsynthase. These observations support a hypothesis that the IF1–Ca2+–CaM complex, forming on plasma membrane, functions in the cellular regulation of HDL endocytosis by hepatocytes.  相似文献

When mitochondrial respiration is compromised, the F1Fo-ATP synthase reverses and consumes ATP, serving to maintain the mitochondrial membrane potential (Δψm). This process is mitigated by IF1. As little is known of the cell biology of IF1, we have investigated the functional consequences of varying IF1 expression. We report that, (1) during inhibition of respiration, IF1 conserves ATP at the expense of Δψm; (2) overexpression of IF1 is protective against ischemic injury; (3) relative IF1 expression level varies between tissues and cell types and dictates the response to inhibition of mitochondrial respiration; (4) the density of mitochondrial cristae is increased by IF1 overexpression and decreased by IF1 suppression; and (5) IF1 overexpression increases the formation of dimeric ATP synthase complexes and increases F1Fo-ATP synthase activity. Thus, IF1 regulates mitochondrial function and structure under both physiological and pathological conditions.  相似文献

(1) The natural ATPase inhibitor (IF1) from beef heart mitochondria has a tendency to form aggregates in aqueous solutions. The extent of aggregation and the structure of the aggregates were assessed by gel filtration and small-angle neutron scattering. IF1 polymerization was found to depend on the salt concentrations, pH of the medium and concentration of IF1. The higher the salt concentration, the lower the aggregation state. Aggregation of IF1 was decreased at slightly acidic pH. It increased with the concentration of IF1 as expected from the law of mass action. (2) Neutron scattering showed the aggregation of IF1 in 2 M ammonium sulfate solutions. The predominant species is the dimer which has a somewhat elongated shape. (3) The Sephadex G-50 chromatography that is supposed to deprive beef heart submitochondrial particles of loosely bound IF1 (Racker, E. and Horstman, L.L. (1967) J. Biol. Chem. 242, 2547–2551) was shown to have a limited effectiveness as a trap for IF1. The reason was that IF1 released from the particles formed high molecular weight aggregates that were not separated from the membrane vesicles by Sephadex G-50 chromatography. (4) The above observations provide the basis for a simple method of purification of beef heart IF1 which combines the recovery of the supernatant from submitochondrial particles with the last three steps of the IF1 preparation described by Horstman and Racker (J. Biol. Chem. (1970) 265, 1336–1344). The particles recovered in the sediment were deprived of IF1 and could therefore be used for preparation of F1-ATPase. The advantage of this method is that both IF1 and F1-ATPase can be prepared from the same batch of mitochondria.  相似文献

Mitochondrial structure has a central role both in energy conversion and in the regulation of cell death. We have previously shown that IF1 protects cells from necrotic cell death and supports cristae structure by promoting the oligomerisation of the F1Fo-ATPsynthase. As IF1 is upregulated in a large proportion of human cancers, we have here explored its contribution to the progression of apoptosis and report that an increased expression of IF1, relative to the F1Fo-ATPsynthase, protects cells from apoptotic death. We show that IF1 expression serves as a checkpoint for the release of Cytochrome c (Cyt c) and hence the completion of the apoptotic program. We show that the progression of apoptosis engages an amplification pathway mediated by: (i) Cyt c-dependent release of ER Ca2+, (ii) Ca2+-dependent recruitment of the GTPase Dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1), (iii) Bax insertion into the outer mitochondrial membrane and (iv) further release of Cyt c. This pathway is accelerated by suppression of IF1 and delayed by its overexpression. IF1 overexpression is associated with the preservation of mitochondrial morphology and ultrastructure, consistent with a central role for IF1 as a determinant of the inner membrane architecture and with the role of mitochondrial ultrastructure in the regulation of Cyt c release. These data suggest that IF1 is an antiapoptotic and potentially tumorigenic factor and may be a valuable predictor of responsiveness to chemotherapy.  相似文献

The crop seed is a complex organ that may be composed of the diploid embryo, the triploid endosperm and the diploid maternal tissues. According to the genetic features of seed characters, two genetic models for mapping quantitative trait loci (QTLs) of crop seed traits are proposed, with inclusion of maternal effects, embryo or endosperm effects of QTL, environmental effects and QTL-by-environment (QE) interactions. The mapping population can be generated either from double back-cross of immortalized F2 (IF2) to the two parents, from random-cross of IF2 or from selfing of IF2 population. Candidate marker intervals potentially harboring QTLs are first selected through one-dimensional scanning across the whole genome. The selected candidate marker intervals are then included in the model as cofactors to control background genetic effects on the putative QTL(s). Finally, a QTL full model is constructed and model selection is conducted to eliminate false positive QTLs. The genetic main effects of QTLs, QE interaction effects and the corresponding P-values are computed by Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm for Gaussian mixed linear model via Gibbs sampling. Monte Carlo simulations were performed to investigate the reliability and efficiency of the proposed method. The simulation results showed that the proposed method had higher power to accurately detect simulated QTLs and properly estimated effect of these QTLs. To demonstrate the usefulness, the proposed method was used to identify the QTLs underlying fiber percentage in an upland cotton IF2 population. A computer software, QTLNetwork-Seed, was developed for QTL analysis of seed traits.  相似文献

Summary Two diverse parents of upland cotton namely J.34 and I.C. 1926 were crossed. A comparison between biparental intermated progenies and F3 families indicated alteration of correlation coefficient between yield and halo length. The significant negative correlation in F3 population between these two attributes changed to a positive but non significant one in biparental intermated progenies. A change in correlation coefficients was expected due to breakage of linkage upon intermating. An increase in the correlation coefficients could also be expected when linkages are predominantly in the repulsion phase. It is suggested that intermating in early generations coupled with selection of desirable segregants may prove a useful method for improving yield and quality simultaneously. The diallel selective mating system may also supplement intermating to improve yield and quality in cotton.Part of Ph.D. Thesis submitted to the Haryana Agricultural University.

Grain yield (GY) and grain protein concentration (GPC) are two major traits contributing to the economic value of the wheat crop. These are, consequently, major targets in wheat breeding programs, but their simultaneous improvement is hampered by the negative correlation between GPC and GY. Identifying the genetic determinants of GPC and GY through quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis would be one way to identify chromosomal regions, allowing improvement of GPC without reducing GY using marker-assisted selection. Therefore, QTL detection was carried out for GY and GPC using three inter-connected doubled haploid populations grown in a large multi-environment trial network. Chromosomes 2A, 2D, 3B, 7B and 7D showed co-location of QTL for GPC and GY with antagonistic effects, thus contributing to the negative GPC–GY relationship. Nonetheless, genomic regions determining GPC independently of GY across experiments were found on chromosomes 3A and 5D and could help breeders to move the GPC–GY relationship in a desirable direction.  相似文献

The natural inhibitor proteins IF1 regulate mitochondrial F0F1ATPsynthase in a wide range of species. We characterized the interaction of CaM with purified bovine IF1, two bovine IF1 synthetic peptides, as well as two homologous proteins from yeast, namely IF1 and STF1. Fluorometric analyses showed that bovine and yeast inhibitors bind CaM with a 1:1 stoichiometry in the pH range between 5 and 8 and that CaM-IF1 interaction is Ca2+-dependent. Bovine and yeast IF1 have intermediate binding affinity for CaM, while the Kd (dissociation constant) of the STF1-CaM interaction is slightly higher. Binding studies of CaM with bovine IF1 synthetic peptides allowed us to identify bovine IF1 sequence 33–42 as the putative CaM-binding region. Sequence alignment revealed that this region contains a hydrophobic motif for CaM binding, highly conserved in both yeast IF1 and STF1 sequences. In addition, the same region in bovine IF1 has an IQ motif for CaM binding, conserved as an IQ-like motif in yeast IF1 but not in STF1. Based on the pH and Ca2+ dependence of IF1 interaction with CaM, we suggest that the complex can be formed outside mitochondria, where CaM could regulate IF1 trafficking or additional IF1 roles not yet clarified.  相似文献

The location of the endogenous inhibitor protein ( IF1) in the rotor/stator architecture of the bovine mitochondrial ATP synthase was studied by reversible cross-linking with dithiobis(succinimidylpropionate) in soluble F1I and intact F1F0I complexes of submitochondrial particles. Reducing two-dimensional electrophoresis, Western blotting, and fluorescent cysteine labeling showed formation of –IF1, IF1–IF1, –IF1, and –IF1 cross-linkages in soluble F1I and in native F1F0I complexes. Cross-linking blocked the release of IF1 from its inhibitory site and therefore the activation of F1I and F1F0I complexes in a dithiothreitol-sensitive process. These results show that the endogenous IF1 is at a distance 12 Å,to and subunits of the central rotor of the native mitochondrial ATP synthase. This finding strongly suggests that, without excluding the classical assumption that IF1 inhibits conformational changes of the catalytic subunits, the inhibitory mechanism of IF1 may involve the interference with rotation of the central stalk.  相似文献

 Isozyme analysis of seed samples derived from natural and managed populations of the tropical pine Pinus caribaea vars ‘bahamensis’ and ‘caribaea’ was used to assess population genetic structure in its native range and to detect changes occurring during early domestication of the species. Baseline data from natural populations of the two varieties showed that populations sampled as seed are characterized by high gene diversity (mean He=0.26) and a low level of inbreeding ( mean Fis=0.15). A UPGMA tree of genetic relatedness among populations indicates that the two varieties represent distinct evolutionary units. Within each variety there is significant differentiation among populations, and this is greater for the more fragmented populations of var ‘bahamensis’ (Fst=0.08) than for var ‘caribaea’ (Fst=0.02). Seed from a seed orchard population of var ‘caribaea’ established within its natural range showed no change in genetic diversity but did show a reduced inbreeding coefficient (Fis=0.09) compared with its progenitor populations, suggesting a decrease in selfing and/or biparental inbreeding. A bulked seed sample from an exotic plantation of var ‘bahamensis’ in Australia displayed a large increase in the inbreeding coefficient (Fis=0.324) compared with that found in natural populations, possibly due to elevated self-fertilization. Finally, a bulked seed sample from an exotic plantation population of var ‘caribaea’ from China showed enhanced genetic diversity, an increase in the inbreeding coefficient and more linkage disequilibrium than its presumed progenitor populations. It was also genetically divergent from them. RFLP analysis of chloroplast DNA variation in the Chinese sample suggested that seeds of the related taxa P. elliottii and P. taeda, or seeds derived from hybridization with these taxa growing in the seed production area, had been included in the seed crop during harvesting. We conclude that monitoring of appropriate genetic markers may be an effective means of identifying potentially deleterious genetic changes occurring during forest tree domestication.
