Abstract: | In this study, high-resolution melting (HRM) analysis was evaluated for gene mapping in rice with sequence-tagged site (STS) and simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. A total of 103 out of 353 normal STS and SSR markers revealed polymorphic melting curves among the parental genotypes, and 12 of these were successfully used to genotype the F2 mapping population for HRM analysis. Additional electrophoresis findings demonstrated that HRM genotyping matched with traditional electrophoresis results. To optimize the HRM-marker screening efficiency, different HRM reaction conditions were evaluated. A 5-μl touchdown-polymerase chain reaction (PCR) system provided no significant improvement in screening efficiency but in a 10-μl touchdown-PCR system, the marker screening efficiency increased by 75%. Twenty-one markers were obtained for mapping purposes under the optimized reaction conditions. This study indicates that HRM analysis can speed up the gene mapping progress in rice, while saving a lot of manpower. |
