Marker-assisted introgression of favorable alleles at quantitative trait loci between maize elite lines 总被引:16,自引:0,他引:16
This article reports the marker-assisted introgression of favorable alleles at three quantitative trait loci (QTL) for earliness and grain yield among maize elite lines. The QTL were originally detected in 1992 by means of ANOVA in a population of 96 recombinant inbred lines (RILs). Introgression started from a selected RIL, which was crossed three times to one of the original parents and then self-fertilized, leading to BC(3)S(1) progenies. Markers were used to assist both foreground and background selection at each generation. At the end of the program, the effect of introgression was assessed phenotypically in agronomic trials, and QTL detection was performed by composite interval mapping among BC(3)S(1) progenies. The marker-assisted introgression proved successful at the genotypic level, as analyzed by precision graphical genotypes, although no emphasis was put on the reduction of linkage drag around QTL. Also, QTL positions were generally sustained in the introgression background. For earliness, the magnitude and sign of the QTL effects were in good agreement with those expected from initial RIL analyses. Conversely, for yield, important discrepancies were observed in the magnitude and sign of the QTL effects observed after introgression, when compared to those expected from initial RIL analyses. These discrepancies are probably due to important genotype-by-environment interactions. 相似文献

The paper deals with the links between physiological measurements and cognitive and emotional functioning. As long as the
operator is a key agent in charge of complex systems, the definition of metrics able to predict his performance is a great
challenge. The measurement of the physiological state is a very promising way but a very acute comprehension is required;
in particular few studies compare autonomous nervous system reactivity according to specific cognitive processes during task
performance and task related psychological stress is often ignored. We compared physiological parameters recorded on 24 healthy
subjects facing two neuropsychological tasks: a dynamic task that require problem solving in a world that continually evolves
over time and a logical task representative of cognitive processes performed by operators facing everyday problem solving.
Results showed that the mean pupil diameter change was higher during the dynamic task; conversely, the heart rate was more
elevated during the logical task. Finally, the systolic blood pressure seemed to be strongly sensitive to psychological stress.
A better taking into account of the precise influence of a given cognitive activity and both workload and related task-induced
psychological stress during task performance is a promising way to better monitor operators in complex working situations
to detect mental overload or pejorative stress factor of error. 相似文献

In this paper we examined plan continuation error (PCE), a well known error made by pilots consisting in continuing the flight
plan despite adverse meteorological conditions. Our hypothesis is that a large range of strong negative emotional consequences,
including those induced by economic pressure, are associated with the decision to revise the flight plan and favor PCE. We
investigated the economic hypothesis with a simplified landing task (reproduction of a real aircraft instrument) in which
uncertainty and reward were manipulated. Heart rate (HR), heart rate variability (HRV) and eye tracking measurements were
performed to get objective clues both on the cognitive and emotional state of the volunteers. Results showed that volunteers
made more risky decisions under the influence of the financial incentive, in particular when uncertainty was high. Psychophysiological
examination showed that HR increased and total HRV decreased in response to the cognitive load generated by the task. In addition,
HR also increased in response to the financially motivated condition. Eventually, fixation times increased when uncertainty
was high, confirming the difficulty in obtaining/interpreting information from the instrument in this condition. These results
support the assumption that risky-decision making observed in pilots can be, at least partially, explained by a shift from
cold to hot (emotional) decision-making in response to economic constraints and uncertainty. 相似文献

Fruit quality is polygenic; each component has variable heritability and is difficult to assess. Genomic selection, which allows the prediction of phenotypes based on the whole-genome genotype, could vastly help to improve fruit quality. The goal of this study is to evaluate the accuracy of genomic selection for several metabolomic and quality traits by cross-validation and to estimate the impact of different factors on its accuracy. We analyzed data from 45 phenotypic traits and genotypic data obtained from a previous study of genetic association on a collection of 163 tomato accessions. We tested the influence of (1) the size of training population, (2) the number and density of molecular markers and (3) individual relatedness on the accuracy of prediction. The prediction accuracy of phenotypic values was largely related to the heritability of the traits. The size of training population increased the accuracy of predictions. Using 122 accessions and 5995 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) was the optimal condition. The density of markers and their numbers also affected the accuracy of the prediction. Using 2313 SNP markers distributed 0.1 cM or more apart from each other reduced the accuracy of prediction, and no gain in prediction accuracy was found when more markers were used in the model. Additionally, the more accessions were related, the more accurate were the predictions. Finally, the structure of the population negatively affected the prediction accuracy. In conclusion, the results obtained by cross-validation illustrated the effect of several parameters on the accuracy of prediction and revealed the potential of genomic selection in tomato breeding programs. 相似文献

Arcelin-1 and α-amylase inhibitor are two lectin-like glycoproteins expressed in the seeds of the kidney bean (Phaseolus vulgaris). They display insecticidal activities and protect the seeds from predation by larvae of various bruchids through different biological actions. Solution-state investigations by small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) show the dimeric structure of arcelin-1, a requirement for its hemagglutinating properties. Anions were found to have specific properties in their effectiveness to disrupt protein aggregates, affect solubility, and improve crystallizability. The SAXS results were used to improve crystallization conditions, and single crystals diffracting beyond 1.9 Å resolution were obtained. X-ray diffraction data analysis shows that noncrystallographic symmetry-related arcelin-1 molecules form a lectin-like dimer and reveals the presence of a solvent-exposed anion binding site on the protein, at a crystal-packing interface. The solution state properties of arcelin-1 and crystal twinning may be explained by the anion specificity of this binding site. Proteins 29:433–442, 1997. © 1997 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献
