A High-Density Genetic Map with Array-Based Markers Facilitates Structural and Quantitative Trait Locus Analyses of the Common Wheat Genome

The large genome and allohexaploidy of common wheat have complicated construction of a high-density genetic map. Although improvements in the throughput of next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies have made it possible to obtain a large amount of genotyping data for an entire mapping population by direct sequencing, including hexaploid wheat, a significant number of missing data points are often apparent due to the low coverage of sequencing. In the present study, a microarray-based polymorphism detection system was developed using NGS data obtained from complexity-reduced genomic DNA of two common wheat cultivars, Chinese Spring (CS) and Mironovskaya 808. After design and selection of polymorphic probes, 13,056 new markers were added to the linkage map of a recombinant inbred mapping population between CS and Mironovskaya 808. On average, 2.49 missing data points per marker were observed in the 201 recombinant inbred lines, with a maximum of 42. Around 40% of the new markers were derived from genic regions and 11% from repetitive regions. The low number of retroelements indicated that the new polymorphic markers were mainly derived from the less repetitive region of the wheat genome. Around 25% of the mapped sequences were useful for alignment with the physical map of barley. Quantitative trait locus (QTL) analyses of 14 agronomically important traits related to flowering, spikes, and seeds demonstrated that the new high-density map showed improved QTL detection, resolution, and accuracy over the original simple sequence repeat map.     

水产养殖动物遗传连锁图谱及QTL定位研究进展

自1997年美国农业部启动5种水产养殖动物基因组计划以来,在不到10年的时间里,世界各国都相继开展了本国主要水产养殖动物基因组研究。截至2005年底,有近17种海淡水养殖动物公布了遗传连锁图谱：属于高密度连锁图谱的有虹鳟和大西洋鲑（标记数超过1000）;属于中密度遗传连锁图谱的有罗非鱼、沟鲶、黑虎虾、日本牙鲆和欧洲海鲈（标记数为400-1000）;属于低密度遗传连锁图谱的有泰国的胡鲶,中国的栉孔扇贝、鲤鱼,日本的黄尾鲕,美国的牡蛎等近10种养殖种类（标记数少于400）。水产养殖动物遗传连锁图谱的构建和发展,促进了一些与经济性状（如生长、抗逆、发育等）相关的数量性状位点（QTL）的定位研究。然而,QTL定位研究目前只在具有中高密度遗传连锁图谱的鲑科鱼类（虹鳟、大西洋鲑和北极嘉鱼）、罗非鱼、沟鲶和日本牙鲆等种类中开展,而且定位研究仍处在初级水平。遗传连锁图谱的高分辨率和QTL在图谱上的精确定位,是今后能否实现对主要水产养殖动物的经济性状进行遗传操作的技术保证,同时也是实现分子标记或基因辅助育种在水产养殖动物中成功运用的制胜法宝。

A Simple Sequence Repeat- and Single-Nucleotide Polymorphism-Based Genetic Linkage Map of the Brown Planthopper,Nilaparvata lugens

In this study, we developed the first genetic linkage map for the major rice insect pest, the brown planthopper (BPH, Nilaparvata lugens). The linkage map was constructed by integrating linkage data from two backcross populations derived from three inbred BPH strains. The consensus map consists of 474 simple sequence repeats, 43 single-nucleotide polymorphisms, and 1 sequence-tagged site, for a total of 518 markers at 472 unique positions in 17 linkage groups. The linkage groups cover 1093.9 cM, with an average distance of 2.3 cM between loci. The average number of marker loci per linkage group was 27.8. The sex-linkage group was identified by exploiting X-linked and Y-specific markers. Our linkage map and the newly developed markers used to create it constitute an essential resource and a useful framework for future genetic analyses in BPH.     

林木遗传连锁图谱构建研究进展与发展方向

本文就目前国内外林木连锁遗传图谱领域的研究进展进行了综述,指出了该领域研究中存在的主要问题,即一方面是作图个体的数量有限,另一方面是采用的标记以随机标记为主,导致了建成的图谱以及利用图谱获得的数量性状基因位点（QTLs）信息具有杂交组合特异性,造成了QTLs的可信度和在林木遗传改良以及标记辅助选择中的实用性降低等现象。针对存在的问题,讨论了根据林木生物学特点选择合适遗传标记的意义,指出进行林木比较作图研究的重要性和必要性。文中接着较为详尽地介绍了国外重要林木表达序列标签（EST）测序项目的研究进展,论述了功能已知和种间高度保守的表达序列标签多态性（ESTP）标记的由来,阐述了获得ESTP标记的主要方法,并指出应当利用ESTP标记进行林木遗传图谱构建、QTL定位和比较作图的研究。文中最后讨论了未来林木遗传图谱构建和QTL定位研究的发展方向,并探讨了我国在该领域取得重大进展的突破口,指出我国应首先进行杨树尤其是中国乡土杨树树种该方面的研究。 Abstract:The research progress in genetic linkage map construction of forest tree species both at home and abroad were reviewed in the paper.Two main problems involved in the field were discussed.One was the limitation of the number of individuals of mapping populations and the other was the random markers mostly employed by the majority of studies.These problems have resulted in crossing combination specificity in the constructed maps and the QTLs located on the basis of the maps.As a result,the QTLs discovered up to now have low credibility and poor practicability in marker-assisted selection.Therefore considering the biological characteristics of forest tree species,the selection of the most suitable genetic markers is crucial to obtain a high quality genetic linkage map,and it is both important and necessary to carry out comparative genetic mapping.Progress in the ongoing expressed sequence tag (EST) sequencing projects were summarized and EST polymorphism (ESTP),the most informative and highly conservative marker with known function,as well as the main ESTP detection techniques were elaborated.It was pointed out that ESTP markers should be integrated into the present studies of genetic linkage map construction,QTL mapping and genome comparative mapping.Finally the future prospects in the fields of genetic linkage map and QTL mapping were discussed.In China,Such studies around Populus,especially in the local Populus species should make a breakthrough in the related fields.     

漆酶同工酶基因在斑玉蕈生长发育过程中的表达分析

为了探明漆酶在斑玉蕈生长发育过程中的功能,对斑玉蕈转录测序预测的13个漆酶基因序列进行分析、鉴定和构建分子系统发育树;检测了不同生长发育时期漆酶的活性和漆酶基因表达水平。研究结果显示：13个基因片段中有10个是漆酶基因。不同的漆酶同工酶之间进化关系存在明显差异,大多数漆酶与木腐菌（金针菇Flammulina filiformis和侧耳属Pleurotus）进化关系较近。对斑玉蕈不同生长发育时期的酶活检测结果显示,从斑玉蕈的菌丝恢复期到钉头期,漆酶活性逐渐升高,而在子实体形成后期酶活逐渐降低。对培养40d、60d和80d的菌丝样品以及不同生长发育时期的样品进RT-qPCR检测,结果显示在菌丝营养生长时期,大多数漆酶基因在第40-60天表达量持续增加1-3倍,而在第60-80天时表达量出现降低的情况。而在生殖生长时期,大多数漆酶基因在转色期或者原基期相对表达量达到最大值,并在子实体期出现降低,这与漆酶活性的检测具有一致性。lcc3、lcc7、lcc8和lcc9在斑玉蕈生殖生长过程中相对表达量出现了10-100倍的上调。这说明从菌丝培养到菌丝扭结形成子实体和子实体发育的过程中,不同的漆酶可能发挥着不同的作用,表达量较高的漆酶基因可能对基质降解和子实体形成起主要作用。

不同营养条件下斑玉蕈菌丝生长及产酶特性

分析测定了不同营养条件下斑玉蕈菌丝形态特征、生长速度及产酶规律。低碳氮盐培养基上菌丝生长速度最快,但其菌丝非常稀疏,边缘不整齐,在整个生长阶段酶活力(包括漆酶、锰过氧化物酶、木素过氧化物酶、木聚糖酶、纤维素酶)较低,营养不足对该菌菌丝生长速度影响不明显,但对菌丝形态和酶活有很大的影响;低氮条件下最先产生木质素过氧化物酶,说明限氮条件可以刺激木质素过氧化物酶的产生;高无机盐条件下最先产生漆酶和锰过氧化物酶,但菌丝生长速度较慢,酶活性比较低,浓度过高会影响菌丝生长。结果表明,不同的营养条件对斑玉蕈的菌丝生长及多种酶活性有很大影响,这为斑玉蕈改变营养条件调节菌丝生长速度、菌丝形态以及基质降解提供了理论依据,同时对斑玉蕈栽培过程中基质的高效利用、缩短生产周期、降低生产成本具有重要的指导意义。

Construction of Three High-Density Genetic Linkage Maps and Dynamic QTL Mapping of Growth Traits in Yellow River Carp (Cyprinus carpio haematopterus)

To provide the theoretical basis for researching growth, development, and molecular marker-assisted breeding of the economically important Yellow River carp (Cyprinus carpio haematopterus) using dynamic quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping, we constructed three genetic linkage maps from 207 progeny using a new modified genotyping-by-sequencing method. The three maps contained 16,886, 16,548, and 7482 single nucleotide polymorphism markers, respectively, with an average interval of 0.36 cM, 0.45 cM, and 1.00 cM. We identified 148 QTLs related to four growth traits that were located on 25 chromosomes from three growth stages of Yellow River carp. A total of 32, 36, 43, and 37 QTLs were associated with body length, height, width, and weight, respectively. Among them, 47 QTLs were detected for only one growth trait in one stage, but all of the other QTLs were co-localized. Of the 14 main QTLs, 13 were located on chromosome 12, which suggests the presence of growth-related genes on this chromosome. We then detected 17 candidate genes within 50 K upstream and downstream of the 14 main QTLs. This is the first report of the dynamic QTL mapping of growth traits of Yellow River carp, and the results can be used in future studies of growth, development, and molecular-assisted breeding of this species.

CWI和HOG信号通路基因在斑玉蕈不同发育阶段的表达模式

为了更清楚地了解MAPK信号通路中的细胞壁完整性信号通路（cell wall integrity,CWI）和高渗透压甘油（high-osmolarity glycerol pathway,HOG）信号通路对斑玉蕈菌丝成熟、原基形成和子实体发育过程的影响及调节作用,对MAPK信号通路中的CWI和HOG信号通路基因在斑玉蕈不同菌丝培养时间（40、60、80和100d）和不同生长发育关键时期（24h、菌丝恢复期、菌丝转色期、原基期和子实体期）的表达模式进行分析,以期揭示这两条信号通路基因参与调节斑玉蕈菌丝的生长、子实体的形成和发育的作用。在斑玉蕈的CWI和HOG信号通路中经分析鉴定一共获得了15个关键基因。CWI信号通路基因表达分析表明：在菌丝培养的40-100d的过程中,大部分CWI信号通路基因在第60天时表达量最高,其中rho1、ssk1、ssk2和ste20的基因表达量上调了2-5倍,在第80-100天时出现持续下降。在HOG信号通路中的大部分基因也在菌丝培养的第60天表达量达到最高。其中sho1、ste20、ssk1和ssk2基因的表达量上调最为显著,而hog1基因的表达量在菌丝培养的第40-100天呈持续下降。子实体形成过程中两条通路的大部分基因在原基形成时期表达量最高,而在子实体时期表达量下调。其中HOG信号通路中的ssk2基因表达量上调最为显著。以上结果说明在菌丝生长过程中第60天时菌丝细胞生长增殖最为旺盛,而在第80天开始菌丝细胞基本开始停止生长,菌丝也逐渐达到成熟。同时在菌丝增殖生长过程中,斑玉蕈持续地上调CWI信号通路基因的表达来调控菌丝细胞壁的完整性,从而控制菌丝细胞壁的形成。其中bck1、mkk1和slt2基因可能对斑玉蕈菌丝细胞的分裂增殖和细胞壁的形成以及诱导子实体形成起到关键作用。     

Analysis of the Genome Sequence of Strain GiC-126 of Gloeostereum incarnatum with Genetic Linkage Map

Gloeostereum incarnatum has edible and medicinal value and was first cultivated and domesticated in China. We sequenced the G. incarnatum monokaryotic strain GiC-126 on an Illumina HiSeq X Ten system and obtained a 34.52-Mb genome assembly sequence that encoded 16,895 predicted genes. We combined the GiC-126 genome with the published genome of G. incarnatum strain CCMJ2665 to construct a genetic linkage map (GiC-126 genome) that had 10 linkage groups (LGs), and the 15 assembly sequences of CCMJ2665 were integrated into 8 LGs. We identified 1912 simple sequence repeat (SSR) loci and detected 700 genes containing 768 SSRs in the genome; 65 and 100 of them were annotated with gene ontology (GO) terms and KEGG pathways, respectively. Carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) were identified in 20 fungal genomes and annotated; among them, 144 CAZymes were annotated in the GiC-126 genome. The A mating-type locus (MAT-A) of G. incarnatum was located on scaffold885 at 38.9 cM of LG1 and was flanked by two homeodomain (HD1) genes, mip and beta-fg. Fourteen segregation distortion markers were detected in the genetic linkage map, all of which were skewed toward the parent GiC-126. They formed three segregation distortion regions (SDR1–SDR3), and 22 predictive genes were found in scaffold1920 where three segregation distortion markers were located in SDR1. In this study, we corrected and updated the genomic information of G. incarnatum. Our results will provide a theoretical basis for fine gene mapping, functional gene cloning, and genetic breeding the follow-up of G. incarnatum.
