For several years it has been recognized that introduction of plant cells into culture results in genetic changes. These genetic alterations have been recovered in the plants regenerated from cell cultures. More recently it has been recognized that this method of introducing genetic changes into crop plants could be used to develop new breeding lines. The technology of introducing genetic variation by using cell culture has been termed somaclonal and gametoclonal variation. This paper reviews the history of this technology and offers genetic documentation of somaclonal variation in tomato. As this variation represents a new tool for the plant breeder, breeding strategies for the use of this variation are presented and discussed. Somaclonal and gametoclonal variation are new tools for the geneticist and plant breeder that permit reduction in the time period for new variety development and that permit access to new classes of genetic variation. 相似文献

There are two ways for genetic improvement in classical plant breeding: crossing and mutation. Plant varieties can also be improved through genetic modification; however, the present GMO regulations are based on risk assessments with the transgenes coming from non-crossable species. Nowadays, DNA sequence information of crop plants facilitates the isolation of cisgenes, which are genes from crop plants themselves or from crossable species. The increasing number of these isolated genes, and the development of transformation protocols that do not leave marker genes behind, provide an opportunity to improve plant breeding while remaining within the gene pool of the classical breeder. Compared with induced translocation and introgression breeding, cisgenesis is an improvement for gene transfer from crossable plants: it is a one-step gene transfer without linkage drag of other genes, whereas induced translocation and introgression breeding are multiple step gene transfer methods with linkage drag. The similarity of the genes used in cisgenesis compared with classical breeding is a compelling argument to treat cisgenic plants as classically bred plants. In the case of the classical breeding method induced translocation breeding, the insertion site of the genes is a priori unknown, as it is in cisgenesis. This provides another argument to treat cisgenic plants as classically bred plants, by exempting cisgenesis of plants from the GMO legislations. 相似文献

Summary Full and half-sib reciprocal recurrent selection (RRS) were compared algebraically and with computer simulation. The relative performance of the two schemes depended on the selection intensity and the environmental variance. Full-sib RRS was favoured at less intense selection and when the environmental variance was large relative to the total genetic variation. As selection intensity increased its advantage declined. Full-sib RRS enables a breeder to combine the efficient development of new hybrids with population improvement and should be a valuable technique in plant breeding.Published with the approval of the Director as paper No. 2466 Journal series, Nebraska Agr.

Plant tissue culture comprises a set of in vitro techniques, methods and strategies that are part of the group of technologies called plant biotechnology. Tissue culture has been exploited to create genetic variability from which crop plants can be improved, to improve the state of health of the planted material and to increase the number of desirable germplasms available to the plant breeder. Tissue-culture protocols are available for most crop species, although continued optimization is still required for many crops, especially cereals and woody plants. Tissueculture techniques, in combination with molecular techniques, have been successfully used to incorporate specific traits through gene transfer. In vitro techniques for the culture of protoplasts, anthers, microspores, ovules and embryos have been used to create new genetic variation in the breeding lines, often via haploid production. Cell culture has also produced somaclonal and gametoclonal variants with crop-improvement potential. The culture of single cells and meristems can be effectively used to eradicate pathogens from planting material and thereby dramatically improve the yield of established cultivars. Large-scale micropropagation laboratories are providing millions of plants for the commercial ornamental market and the agricultural, clonally-propagated crop market. With selected laboratory material typically taking one or two decades to reach the commercial market through plant breeding, this technology can be expected to have an ever increasing impact on crop improvement as we approach the new millenium.D.C.W.

Summary Transfer of genes from heterologous species provides the means of selectively introducing new traits into crop plants and
expanding the gene pool beyond what has been available to traditional breeding systems. With the recent advances in genetic
engineering of plants, it is now feasible to introduce into crop plants, genes that have previously been inaccessible to the
conventional plant breeder, or which did not exist in the crop of interest. This holds a tremendous potential for the genetic
enhancement of important food crops. However, the availability of efficient transformation methods to introduce foreign DNA
can be a substantial barrier to the application of recombinant DNA methods in some crop plants. Despite significant advances
over the past decades, development of efficient transformation methods can take many years of painstaking research. The major
components for the development of transgenic plants include the development of reliable tissue culture regeneration systems,
preparation of gene constructs and efficient transformation techniques for the introduction of genes into the crop plants,
recovery and multiplication of transgenic plants, molecular and genetic characterization of transgenic plants for stable and
efficient gene expression, transfer of genes to elite cultivars by conventional breeding methods if required, and the evaluation
of transgenic plants for their effectiveness in alleviating the biotic and abiotic stresses without being an environmental
biohazard. Amongst these, protocols for the introduction of genes, including the efficient regeneration of shoots in tissue
cultures, and transformation methods can be major bottlenecks to the application of genetic transformation technology. Some
of the key constraints in transformation procedures and possible solutions for safe development and deployment of transgenic
plants for crop improvement are discussed. 相似文献

染色体片段导入系在作物遗传育种中的应用 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
准确而有效的定位农作物数量性状基因座(Quantitative Trait Loci,QTLs)是植物分子育种的核心,传统的QTL定位群体遗传背景复杂,受群体大小和统计方法等多方面的限制,难以达到QTL精细定位。随着分子标记技术、计算机统计软件及分子辅助选择的飞速发展,一种新的QTL定位群体脱颖而出,这就是染色体片段导入系(Chromosome Segment Introgression Lines,CSILs)。它不但能有效消除"遗传背景噪音"对QTL定位的干扰,还能够在群体中挖掘出大量的有利隐蔽基因,对农作物遗传育种的进一步发展有巨大贡献。对染色体片段导入系的优越性,应用范围以及应用前景作以综述。 相似文献

High throughput screening with chlorophyll fluorescence imaging and its use in crop improvement 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Marker assisted plant breeding is a powerful technique for targeted crop improvement in horticulture and agriculture. It depends upon the correlation of desirable phenotypic characteristics with specific genetic markers. This can be determined by statistical models that relate the variation in the value of genetic markers to variation in phenotypic traits. It therefore depends upon the convergence of three technologies; the creation of genetically characterised (and thus marked) populations, high throughput screening procedures, and statistical procedures. While a large number of high throughput screening technologies are available, real-time screening techniques are usually based on some kind of imaging technologies, such as chlorophyll fluorescence imaging, that offers physiological data that are eminently suitable as a quantitative trait for genetic mapping. 相似文献

Common purslane (Portulaca oleracea), also known as pigweed, fatweed, pusle, and little hogweed, is an annual succulent herb in the family Portulacaceae that is found in most corners of the globe. From the ancient ages purslane has been treated as a major weed of vegetables as well as other crops. However, worldwide researchers and nutritionists have studied this plant as a potential vegetable crop for humans as well as animals. Purslane is a nutritious vegetable with high antioxidant properties and recently has been recognized as the richest source of α-linolenic acid, essential omega-3 and 6 fatty acids, ascorbic acid, glutathione, α-tocopherol and β-carotene. The lack of vegetable sources of ω-3 fatty acids has resulted in a growing level of attention to introduce purslane as a new cultivated vegetable. In the rapid-revolutionizing worldwide atmosphere, the ability to produce improved planting material appropriate to diverse and varying rising conditions is a supreme precedence. Though various published reports on morphological, physiological, nutritional and medicinal aspects of purslane are available, research on the genetic improvement of this promising vegetable crop are scant. Now it is necessary to conduct research for the genetic improvement of this plant. Genetic improvement of purslane is also a real scientific challenge. Scientific modernization of conventional breeding with the advent of advance biotechnological and molecular approaches such as tissue culture, protoplast fusion, genetic transformation, somatic hybridization, marker-assisted selection, qualitative trait locus mapping, genomics, informatics and various statistical representation have opened up new opportunities of revising the relationship between genetic diversity, agronomic performance and response to breeding for varietal improvement. This review is an attempt to amalgamate the assorted scientific information on purslane propagation, cultivation, varietal improvement, nutrient analyses, medicinal uses and to describe prospective research especially for genetic improvement of this crop. 相似文献

The future of plant cultivar improvement lies in the evaluation of genetic resources from currently available germplasm. Today’s gene pool of crop genetic diversity has been shaped during domestication and more recently by breeding. Recent efforts in plant breeding have been aimed at developing new and improved varieties from poorly adapted crops to suit local environments. However, the impact of these breeding efforts is poorly understood. Here, we assess the contributions of both historical and recent breeding efforts to local adaptation and crop improvement in a global barley panel by analysing the distribution of genetic variants with respect to geographic region or historical breeding category. By tracing the impact that breeding had on the genetic diversity of Hordeum vulgare (barley) released in Australia, where the history of barley production is relatively young, we identify 69 candidate regions within 922 genes that were under selection pressure. We also show that modern Australian barley varieties exhibit 12% higher genetic diversity than historical cultivars. Finally, field-trialling and phenotyping for agriculturally relevant traits across a diverse range of Australian environments suggests that genomic regions under strong breeding selection and their candidate genes are closely associated with key agronomic traits. In conclusion, our combined data set and germplasm collection provide a rich source of genetic diversity that can be applied to understanding and improving environmental adaptation and enhanced yields. 相似文献

Advances in introgression technologies for precision breeding within the Lolium - Festuca complex 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The anticipated complexity of multifunctional grasslands with environment‐friendly and sustainable management practices demands better understanding of traits, their interactions, and their genetic control. Intergeneric hybrids between closely related Lolium and Festuca species are being used to broaden the gene pool and provide the plant breeder with options to combine complementary traits aimed at high quality but more robust grass varieties for the future. New techniques in introgression mapping provide opportunities for precision breeding whereby desirable gene combinations transferred from one species into another are selected preferentially, with the exclusion of deleterious alien genes. The close homology between genomes of Lolium and Festuca species allows high levels of chromosome pairing and recombination. Using genomic in situ hybridisation (GISH) on Lolium/Festuca hybrids and their derivatives, recombination between Lolium and Festuca chromosomes is observed at any point along the chromosome. The system provides unlimited access to any combination of Lolium and Festuca DNA sequence. Moreover, genes transferred between homoeologous chromosome sites are expected to function normally at their new locations. Alien chromosome segments may be reduced in size by further recombination events thereby reducing linkage drag. Molecular markers such as AFLPs, SSRs, SNPs, or RFLPs are being targeted to genes of interest to allow their selection through different generations in plant breeding programmes. Relatively simple PCR‐based marker systems are used for specific traits as breeders' toolkits in plant breeding programmes. 相似文献

An increase in the rate of crop improvement is essential for achieving sustained food production and other needs of ever-increasing population. Genomic selection (GS) is a potential breeding tool that has been successfully employed in animal breeding and is being incorporated into plant breeding. GS promises accelerated breeding cycles through a rapid selection of superior genotypes. Numerous empirical and simulation studies on GS and realized impacts on improvement in the crop yields are recently being reported. For a holistic understanding of the technology, we briefly discuss the concept of genetic gain, GS methodology, its current status, advantages of GS over other breeding methods, prediction models, and the factors controlling prediction accuracy in GS. Also, integration of speed breeding and other novel technologies viz. high throughput genotyping and phenotyping technologies for enhancing the efficiency and pace of GS, followed by its prospective applications in varietal development programs is reviewed. 相似文献

2n gametes in the potato: essential ingredients for breeding and germplasm transfer 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
D. Carputo A. Barone L. Frusciante 《TAG. Theoretical and applied genetics. Theoretische und angewandte Genetik》2000,101(5-6):805-813
2n gametes are the result of meiotic mutations occurring during micro – and mega-sporogenesis. They have been identified in
several plant species of different taxa. The potato is probably the crop plant where they have been most intensively studied
and also more appropriately used for the genetic improvement of cultivated genotypes. This paper reviews how 2n gametes allow
potato breeders to broaden the genetic basis of the cultivated Solanum tuberosum, introducing both new genes for the improvement of traits of interest and allelic diversity to maximize heterozygosity. We
provide molecular and breeding evidence that, in the potato, 2n gametes represent a unique tool to transfer target genes from
wild forms to the cultivated tetraploid gene pool. In fact, species directly crossable to S. tuberosum haploids can be exploited through sexual polyploidization crossing schemes. For those which have developed crossability barriers,
specific crossing schemes based on ploidy bridges can be designed. In this paper we also give possible hypotheses to explain
conflicting results on the genetic control and meiotic mutations responsible for 2n-gamete formation in the potato.

The techniques of molecular biology will become a standard part of germplasm conservation and exploitation. They are being used to gather information very rapidly about chromosome structure and genetic variation within the major crop species. Genetic maps with hundreds of DNA sequence markers covering the whole genome have already been created for some crops, such as maize, soybean, wheat and potato. Genetic variation is being revealed by the combined use of restriction endonucleases, fractionation of DNA fragments by electrophoresis and investigation of the size of specific allelic fragments. This kind of approach offers new opportunities to assess the extent of genetic variation among accessions in germplasm collections, thereby helping to decide which accessions are essentially duplicates and which should be maintained in a core collection. I recommend that germplasm banks will in the future also contain diagnostic DNA markers for characterizing and screening germplasm.
When material from germplasm banks is used in crop plant breeding programmes to transfer specific traits into the crop, the availability of a complete set of molecular markers covering the entire genome makes it straightforward to discover which segments have been transferred and which are essential to maintain, so as to preserve the introduced trait.
Germplasm banks are obviously a source of new genetic variation for the molecular geneticist as well as the plant breeder. The isolation of specific alleles determining self-incompatibility from Brassica oleracea accessions for subsequent introduction into oil seed rape is described as an example. 相似文献

Mutations with deleterious consequences in nature may be conditionally deleterious in crop plants. That is, while some genetic variants may reduce fitness under wild conditions and be subject to purifying selection, they can be under positive selection in domesticates. Such deleterious alleles can be plant breeding targets, particularly for complex traits. The difficulty of distinguishing favorable from unfavorable variants reduces the power of selection, while favorable trait variation and heterosis may be attributable to deleterious alleles. Here, we review the roles of deleterious mutations in crop breeding and discuss how they can be used as a new avenue for crop improvement with emerging genomic tools, including HapMaps and pangenome analysis, aiding the identification, removal, or exploitation of deleterious mutations. 相似文献

Summary This report reviews the contributions to the improvement of sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) through traditional approaches with emphasis on the application of biotechnological methods. Strategies include
breeding for higher yield, improved grain quality, and biotic and abiotic stress tolerance. Hybrid development and polyploidy
breeding are also discussed. Plant breeders, working in concert with biotechnologists, have developed new powerful tools for
plant genetic manipulation and genotype evaluation that will significantly improve the efficiency of plant breeding. Improving
sorghum through biotechnology is the latest in a long series of technologies that have been applied to this crop. Five basic
tools of technology have been developed for sorghum improvement: (1) in vitro protocols for efficient plant regeneration; (2) molecular markers; (3) gene identification and cloning; (4) genetic engineering
and gene transfer technology to integrate desirable traits into the sorghum genome; and (5) genomics and germplasm databases.
Reports on studies involving the problems, progress, and prospects for utilizing the biotechnological methods for sorghum
improvement are discussed. 相似文献

With the advent of molecular biotechnology, plant genetic engineering techniques have opened an avenue for the genetic improvement of important vegetable crops. Vegetable crop productivity and quality are seriously affected by various biotic and abiotic stresses which destabilize rural economies in many countries. Moreover, absence of proper post-harvest storage and processing facilities leads to qualitative and quantitative losses. In the past four decades, conventional breeding has significantly contributed to the improvement of vegetable yields, quality, post-harvest life, and resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses. However, there are many constraints in conventional breeding, which can only be overcome by advancements made in modern biology. Broccoli (Brassica oleracea L. var. italica) is an important vegetable crop, of the family Brassicaceae; however, various biotic and abiotic stresses cause enormous crop yield losses during the commercial cultivation of broccoli. Thus, genetic engineering can be used as a tool to add specific characteristics to existing cultivars. However, a pre-requisite for transferring genes into plants is the availability of efficient regeneration and transformation techniques. Recent advances in plant genetic engineering provide an opportunity to improve broccoli in many aspects. The goal of this review is to summarize genetic transformation studies on broccoli to draw the attention of researchers and scientists for its further genetic advancement. 相似文献

Genomics-assisted breeding for crop improvement 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14
Genomics research is generating new tools, such as functional molecular markers and informatics, as well as new knowledge about statistics and inheritance phenomena that could increase the efficiency and precision of crop improvement. In particular, the elucidation of the fundamental mechanisms of heterosis and epigenetics, and their manipulation, has great potential. Eventually, knowledge of the relative values of alleles at all loci segregating in a population could allow the breeder to design a genotype in silico and to practice whole genome selection. High costs currently limit the implementation of genomics-assisted crop improvement, particularly for inbreeding and/or minor crops. Nevertheless, marker-assisted breeding and selection will gradually evolve into 'genomics-assisted breeding' for crop improvement. 相似文献

Genetic engineering of crops as potential source of genetic hazard in the human diet. 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15
The benefits of genetic engineering of crop plants to improve the reliability and quality of the world food supply have been contrasted with public concerns raised about the food safety of the resulting products. Debates have concentrated on the possible unforeseen risks associated with the accumulation of new metabolites in crop plants that may contribute to toxins, allergens and genetic hazards in the human diet. This review examines the various molecular and biochemical mechanisms by which new hazards may appear in foods as a direct consequence of genetic engineering in crop plants. Such hazards may arise from the expression products of the inserted genes, secondary or pleiotropic effects of transgene expression, and random insertional mutagenic effects resulting from transgene integration into plant genomes. However, when traditional plant breeding is evaluated in the same context, these mechanisms are no different from those that have been widely accepted from the past use of new cultivars in agriculture. The risks associated with the introduction of new genes via genetic engineering must be considered alongside the common breeding practice of introgressing large fragments of chromatin from related wild species into crop cultivars. The large proportion of such introgressed DNA involves genes of unknown function linked to the trait of interest such as pest or disease resistance. In this context, the potential risks of introducing new food hazards from the applications of genetic engineering are no different from the risks that might be anticipated from genetic manipulation of crops via traditional breeding. In many respects, the precise manner in which genetic engineering can control the nature and expression of the transferred DNA offers greater confidence for producing the desired outcome compared with traditional breeding. 相似文献

Marker-based parentage analysis facilitates low input ‘breeding without breeding’ strategies for forest trees 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Controlled crosses and progeny testing are important components of tree breeding programs. Recently, a new approach, ‘breeding
without breeding’ (BWB), has been proposed to obtain structured pedigrees for the breeding and testing from wind-pollinated
progenies; the technique uses high-resolution markers instead of conventional approaches. The BWB approach is attractive for
outcrossing conifers where the breeding cycle is long and reproductive maturity is often delayed. For the application of the
BWB approach, the accurate assignment of parents is essential. The first step in the application of the BWB approach is to
conduct tests into the reliability of paternity and parent-pair exclusion procedures in complex situations. In this study
we conducted multi-locus-based empirical and simulation analyses for a Scots pine seed orchard crop, in order to develop the
appropriate parentage assignment techniques for BWB and to investigate whether pedigrees from a seed orchard crop can be determined
with sufficient accuracy. The results were promising, as 93–97% of the seeds generated by mating among the seed orchard clones
were correctly assigned to a parent-pair. When mating occurred with foreign pollen, the success rate of identifying mother
clones was 60–78%. Based on these results, we propose three novel low input breeding strategies for forest trees. The principles
of the different options and their potential benefits and costs are described and discussed using Scots pine as a case study. 相似文献
