Hybridization between butternut (Juglans cinerea), a forest tree native to eastern North America, and Japanese walnut (J. ailantifolia), a tree tolerant to the lethal fungal disease butternut canker, casts doubt on the genetic identity of the remaining butternuts. We report a diagnostic test to distinguish the J. cinerea chloroplast from the J. ailantifolia chloroplast using cleaved amplified polymorphic sequences resolvable in 1.5% agarose gels. J. ailantifolia maternal ancestry in naturally regenerated stands provides a site selection criterion for studies of introgression dynamics when the non-native parent and the hybrids tolerate a disease to which the native species is susceptible. 相似文献

The abundance of butternut (Juglans cinerea L.) trees has severely declined rangewide over the past 50 years. An important factor in the decline is butternut canker, a disease caused by the fungus Ophiognomonia clavigigenti-juglandacearum, which has left the remaining butternuts isolated and sparsely distributed. To manage the remaining populations effectively, information regarding how butternut’s population genetic structure is affected by environmental and historical factors is needed. In this study, we assessed genetic structure and diversity of 161 butternut trees from 19 adjacent watersheds in the southern portion of butternut’s range using 12 microsatellite markers. We assessed the genetic diversity and genetic differentiation among trees grouped at various spatial scales. Our goal was to use historical abundance and land use data for these watersheds, which are now all a part of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park (GSMNP), to understand the ecological and evolutionary forces that challenge the conservation and management of butternut. In general, butternuts within the 19 neighboring watersheds were all part of one continuous population, with gene flow throughout. Significant genetic differentiation was detected between some groups of trees, but the differentiation was quite small and may not represent an ecologically significant distinction. The mean heterozygosity in all watersheds remained high, despite extensive mortality. Overall, genetic diversity and rare alleles were evenly distributed across all watersheds, with some variability in subpopulations containing butternut-Japanese walnut hybrids (Juglans x bixbyi or buarts). These results indicate that management of this species should focus on protection from future hybridization with Japanese walnut, promotion of regeneration, and persistence of all remaining butternut trees, which still retain high levels of genetic diversity. 相似文献

Ten polymorphic microsatellite markers were found to amplify in butternut (Juglans cinerea; Juglandaceae). These microsatellite loci were found to amplify across most of nine other species and five hybrids examined.
Loci were highly polymorphic, with 18 to 32 alleles per locus across species. These nuclear microsatellite markers will be
useful in examining genetic diversity within and among populations of butternut, and in distinguishing butternut from interspecific
hybrids. 相似文献

Butternut trees dying from a canker disease were first reported in southwestern Wisconsin in 1967. Since then, the disease has caused extensive mortality of butternut throughout its North American range. The objectives of this study were to quantify changes in butternut populations and density across its range and identify habitat characteristics of sites where butternut is surviving in order to locate regions for potential butternut restoration. The natural range of butternut (Juglans cinerea L.) extends over a large region of eastern N. America encompassing New Brunswick south to North Carolina, north to Minnesota, and southwest to Missouri. Despite the species’ large range, it is typically not a common tree, comprising a relatively minor component of several different forest types. We evaluated change in butternut abundance and volume from current and historic data from 21 states in the eastern United States. We related abundance and volume at two time periods to a suite of ecological and site factors in order to characterize site conditions where butternut survived. We also assessed the current level of butternut mortality across its range. Since the 1980s, the number of butternut trees and butternut volume have decreased by 58% and 44%, respectively, across its US range. Substantial relative decreases in tree numbers and volume occurred in most ecoregion sections. Five environmental variables were found to be significant predictors of butternut presence. The potential impacts of butternut canker are particularly acute as the canker pathogen invasion pushes a rare tree species toward extinction, at least at a local scale. Based on the results presented here, large‐diameter maple/beech/birch stands in dry, upland sites in eastern Minnesota, western Wisconsin, and upstate New York appear to offer the most favorable conditions for butternut growth and survival and thus may be the best stands for planting resistant butternut trees. 相似文献

We investigate the question of naturally occurring interspecific hybrids between two forest trees: the native North American butternut (Juglans cinerea L.) and the introduced Japanese walnut (Juglans ailantifolia Carrière). Using nuclear and chloroplast DNA markers, we provide evidence for 29 F1 and 22 advanced generation hybrids in seven locations across the eastern and southern range of the native species. Two locations show extensive admixture (95% J. ailantifolia and hybrids) while other locations show limited admixture. Hybridization appears to be asymmetrical with 90.9 per cent of hybrids having J. ailantifolia as the maternal parent. This is, to our knowledge, the first genetic data supporting natural hybridization between these species. The long-term outcome of introgression could include loss of native diversity, but could also include transfer of useful traits from the introduced species. 相似文献

Populations of butternut tree (Juglans cinerea) have undergone range-wide extirpation. A fungal pathogen, Ophiognomonia clavigignenti-juglandacearum, of unknown origin has been recognized as the causal factor. This population collapse has allowed for observations of a broadleaf hardwood in rapid decline. This study made use of six neutral microsatellite markers to describe the present genetic diversity of butternut in the northeastern USA. Our results indicated weak population differentiation (F ST?=?0.084), further supported by an absence of regional genetic structure. Despite reports of high mortality rates, genetic analysis revealed no sign of a recent bottleneck. Population statistics and Bayesian analysis indicated significant historical gene flow among butternut populations of the northeast. Attention should be given to genetic differences between upland and riparian habitat as riparian populations appear to contain greater allele diversity. 相似文献

Chloroplast and mitochondrial molecular tests identify European×Japanese larch hybrids 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Hybrids between European and Japanese larches combine the properties of both parental species (drought resistance, canker resistance, stem straightness) and exhibit a fast growth rate. They are produced in seed orchards, generally by natural pollination. Seeds are collected and used for afforestation as interspecific hybrids. However, there are no convenient tests to assess the interspecific hybrid proportion. In the present study, we developed diagnostic molecular markers suitable for the individual identification of hybrids, whatever their developmental stage. Our strategy involved testing a combination of maternally inherited markers from the mitochondrial genome (mtDNA) and paternally inherited markers from the chloroplast genome (cpDNA). Hybrids were then identified by the presence of a mitochondrial sequence inherited from one parental species and a chloroplast sequence inherited from the other parental species. To achieve this aim, markers discriminating both parental species were first sought. Amplifications of mitochondrial and chloroplast sequences were performed using specific PCR primers. After testing 33 primer pairs in combination with nine restriction enzymes, we detected one mitochondrial marker, f13 which was amplified in Japanese larch and absent in European larch, and one chloroplast marker, ll-TaqI which showed different restriction patterns depending on the species. A restriction fragment of 601 bp was obtained in Japanese larch while two fragments of 120 bp and 481 bp were observed in European larch. These patterns were found in all 197 individuals tested from the two pure species. These markers were then used for the evaluation of the hybrid proportion in a seed lot produced from seed orchards; this was assessed as between 43% and 53% depending on the parental species. The male and female parental species could be determined for each progeny.Communicated by D.B. Neale 相似文献

Butternut (Juglans cinerea L.) is an eastern North American forest tree severely threatened by an exotic fungal pathogen, Sirococcus clavigignenti‐juglandacearum. We report here 13 nuclear microsatellites for genetic evaluation of the remaining natural populations. Summary statistics are reported for individuals from a population of butternuts in central Kentucky (N = 63). All markers were polymorphic, with an average of 13.7 alleles per locus observed. Four loci exhibited significantly fewer heterozygotes than expected under Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium (P < 0.05). 相似文献

Walnut (Juglans spp.) genetic diversity determined by restriction fragment length polymorphisms 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The genetic diversity of 13 Juglans species was characterized using nuclear RFLPs. Allelic frequencies among 41 Juglans populations were determined at 19 RFLP loci by hybridizing single locus probes to walnut DNAs digested with the restriction endonuclease EcoRI or HindIII. A 10-fold difference in species heterozygosity levels was seen among species in different sections of the genus. Differentiation among conspecific populations varied over threefold between species. Genetic differentiation among conspecific east Asian populations was larger than that seen among east Asian species, while the opposite trend was seen for Western Hemisphere species. Taxonomic affinities were also indicated by these results, suggesting that J. cinerea should be included as part of section Cardiocaryon rather than as a unique section, Trachycaryon. Juglans hindsii is classified as a distinct species and not a subspecies of J. californica. Strategies for germplasm preservation and species requiring marked collection efforts are given. 相似文献

Persian walnut (Juglans regia L) is an economically important species cultivated worldwide for its wood and nuts. Despite the increasing interest in the development of conservation strategies for walnut germplasm, an accurate and full-scale overview of wild genetic resources of J. regia has not been conducted because natural populations are located in regions of Asia historically difficult to access. In this study, we estimated the genetic diversity and spatial genetic structure of 39 autochthonous Persian walnut populations sampled across its Asian range using 14 neutral microsatellite markers. A landscape genetic overlay approach was applied to detect the areas of current reservoirs of walnut genetic diversity in the Asian range and to evaluate the role of landscape in shaping walnut genetic diversity since the Last Glacial Maximum. Although Persian walnut has been highly manipulated by humans over the last 2,000 years, we determined that patches of high genetic diversity still exist in the Caucasus and mountains of Central Asia where J. regia might have survived after Pleistocene glaciations. We detected a clear separation of Persian walnut into four main genetic clusters centered in (1) western Kyrgyzstan, (2) western and south–central Asia, (3) east–central Uzbekistan, and (4) Xinjiang and Shandong provinces (China). Overlay of maps showed a coincidence between groups of walnut populations and potential barriers to gene flow such as the Hindu Kush, Pamir, Tien Shan, and Himalaya mountains and the Karakum, Kyzyl Kum, and Taklamakan deserts. This study claimed the relevance of the preservation of walnut genetic resources in the Asian range. 相似文献

Over the last 20 years, global production of Persian walnut (Juglans regia L.) has grown enormously, likely reflecting increased consumption due to its numerous benefits to human health. However, advances in genome‐wide association (GWA) studies and genomic selection (GS) for agronomically important traits in walnut remain limited due to the lack of powerful genomic tools. Here, we present the development and validation of a high‐density 700K single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array in Persian walnut. Over 609K high‐quality SNPs have been thoroughly selected from a set of 9.6 m genome‐wide variants, previously identified from the high‐depth re‐sequencing of 27 founders of the Walnut Improvement Program (WIP) of University of California, Davis. To validate the effectiveness of the array, we genotyped a collection of 1284 walnut trees, including 1167 progeny of 48 WIP families and 26 walnut cultivars. More than half of the SNPs (55.7%) fell in the highest quality class of ‘Poly High Resolution’ (PHR) polymorphisms, which were used to assess the WIP pedigree integrity. We identified 151 new parent‐offspring relationships, all confirmed with the Mendelian inheritance test. In addition, we explored the genetic variability among cultivars of different origin, revealing how the varieties from Europe and California were differentiated from Asian accessions. Both the reconstruction of the WIP pedigree and population structure analysis confirmed the effectiveness of the Applied Biosystems? Axiom? J. regia 700K SNP array, which initiates a novel genomic and advanced phase in walnut genetics and breeding. 相似文献

English walnut (Juglans regia L.) is the most economically important species, for both food and timber, of the 21 species belonging to the genus Juglans. This study was undertaken to analyze and compare DNA sequences of the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit II (COX2) and ribosomal DNA (rDNA) genes in the molecular characterization of 30 English walnut genotypes. rDNA sequences revealed the presence of 402 variations, including 101 in 3′ ends of 18S, 21 in internal transcribed spacer 1(ITS1), 170 in ITS2, 30 in 5.8S, and 80 in 5′ ends of 28S regions. Cox2 intron I sequences showed 769 variable positions and GG insertion/deletion at 3′ end regions. Based on single nucleotide polymorphism markers of rDNA and cox2 intron I sequences, an amplification refractory mutation system was used to fingerprint 18 out of 30 walnut genotypes. The findings revealed that the cox2 intron I region, either alone or in conjunction with rDNA, could be used effectively in identifying these walnut genotypes. 相似文献

Juglans × intermedia (Juglans nigra × Juglans regia) is considered the prototype walnut for quality wood production in Europe. Hybridization between the parental species is
rare under natural conditions and difficult using controlled pollination because of phenological and genetic incompatibilities.
The identification of hybridogenic parents is the first step toward obtaining hybrid progeny. We report the application of
microsatellite markers for DNA fingerprinting and parentage analysis of half-sib families collected in a natural mixed population
for which no phenological and morphological data were available. Ten nuclear, neutral, simple sequence repeat markers were
used to analyse 600 samples. The high levels of polymorphism detected positively influenced the exclusion and identity probabilities.
The assignment analysis revealed the presence of 198 diploid J. × intermedia hybrids among the seedling progeny. Maternity checks were performed on all individuals and few errors of sampling were found.
Four distinct hybridogenic mother trees were identified, each showing different reproductive success rates. The 198 diploid
hybrids belonged to four open-pollinated families based on an analysis of paternity using a likelihood approach. Differential
male reproductive success was observed among pollen donors within the research site. Forty-nine of the 198 diploid hybrids
detected in four progenies were sired by only three J. regia genotypes. Backward selection might be used to establish new seed orchards for inter-specific F1 hybrid production using genotypes with demonstrated compatibility. 相似文献

Early stages of somatic embryo development from embryogenic cultures ofJuglans regia (Persian or English walnut) are described. Histological examination reveals that secondary somatic embryos arise from cotyledons and hypocotyls of primary embryos cultured in the dark. The embryos originate by transverse to oblique divisions of surface cells. Single-cell origin of the secondary embryos confirms the potential of the repetitive embryogenesis system forAgrobacterium-mediated transformation and regeneration of non-chimeric, transgenic walnut plants. 相似文献

Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers were utilized for the identification of Lilium species and inter-specific hybrids. The optimum annealing temperature of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for the RAPD assay in Lilium was 54 °C, which is relatively higher than the temperature used for other genera reported by previous researchers. Among 76 primers used to amplify genomic DNA by PCR, 18 primers (24%) generated polymorphic DNA fragments in Lilium species and hybrids. Cultivars were also identified by RAPD markers. Some amplified fragments were unique to species of each section and to hybrids derived from these species; that is, they were the section-specific DNA markers. Sections, Sinomartagon, Leucolirion b, Leucolirion a and Archelirion could be identified by 6 section-specific markers amplified with five primers. Seven inter-section hybrids showed the section-specific bands of both parental sections, indicating that these markers would be useful for identifying the parental sections of inter-section hybrids. 相似文献

Background
Walnut (Juglans regia, 2n = 32, approximately 606 Mb per 1C genome) is an economically important tree crop. Resistance to anthracnose, caused by Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, is a major objective of walnut genetic improvement in China. The recently developed specific length amplified fragment sequencing (SLAF-seq) is an efficient strategy that can obtain large numbers of markers with sufficient sequence information to construct high-density genetic maps and permits detection of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for molecular breeding.Results
SLAF-seq generated 161.64 M paired-end reads. 153,820 SLAF markers were obtained, of which 49,174 were polymorphic. 13,635 polymorphic markers were sorted into five segregation types and 2,577 markers of them were used to construct genetic linkage maps: 2,395 of these fell into 16 linkage groups (LGs) for the female map, 448 markers for the male map, and 2,577 markers for the integrated map. Taking into account the size of all LGs, the marker coverage was 2,664.36 cM for the female map, 1,305.58 cM for the male map, and 2,457.82 cM for the integrated map. The average intervals between two adjacent mapped markers were 1.11 cM, 2.91 cM and 0.95 cM for three maps, respectively. ‘SNP_only’ markers accounted for 89.25 % of the markers on the integrated map. Mapping markers contained 5,043 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) loci, which corresponded to two SNP loci per SLAF marker. According to the integrated map, we used interval mapping (Logarithm of odds, LOD > 3.0) to detect our quantitative trait. One QTL was detected for anthracnose resistance. The interval of this QTL ranged from 165.51 cM to 176.33 cM on LG14, and ten markers in this interval that were above the threshold value were considered to be linked markers to the anthracnose resistance trait. The phenotypic variance explained by each marker ranged from 16.2 to 19.9 %, and their LOD scores varied from 3.22 to 4.04.Conclusions
High-density genetic maps for walnut containing 16 LGs were constructed using the SLAF-seq method with an F1 population. One QTL for walnut anthracnose resistance was identified based on the map. The results will aid molecular marker-assisted breeding and walnut resistance genes identification.Electronic supplementary material

English walnut (Juglans regia L.) is the most economically important species from all the 21 species belonging to the genus Juglans and is an important and healthy food as well as base material for timber industry. The aim of this study was to develop a
simple technique for specific characterization of English walnut using DNA method. The first and second internal transcribed
spacers (ITS1 and ITS2) as well as the intervening 5.8S coding region of the rRNA gene for 18 cultivars of J. regia L. isolated from different geographic origins were characterized. The size of the spacers sequences ranged from 257 to 263
bases for ITS1 and from 217 to 219 bases for ITS2. Variation of GC contents has also been observed and scored as 55–56.7 and
57.1–58.9% for ITS1 and ITS2, respectively. This data exhibited the presence of polymorphism among cultivars. Alignment of
the ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 sequences from 18 walnut cultivars showed that there were 244 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and
1 short insertion–deletion (indel) at 5′ end ITS1. Amplification refractory mutation system strategy was successfully applied
to the SNP markers of the ITS1 and ITS2 sequences for the fingerprinting analysis of 17 on 18 walnut cultivars. The prediction
of ITS1 and ITS2 RNA secondary structure from each cultivar was improved by detecting key functional elements shared by all
sequences in the alignments. Phylogenetic analysis of the ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 region clearly separated the isolated sequences into
two clusters. The results showed that ITS1 and ITS2 region could be used to discriminate these walnut cultivars. 相似文献
