小麦4B染色体上LOX基因的等位变异及其区域分布

为了解中国不同麦区小麦种质资源籽粒脂肪氧化酶（lipoxygenase,LOX）活性相关基因TaLox-B1的差异和分布,利用小麦4B染色体上的功能标记LOX16和LOX18对7个麦区的436份种质资源进行分子检测。结果表明：在供试材料中共检测到3种TaLox-B1基因等位变异类型,分别为TaLox-B1a（与高LOX活性相关)、TaLox-B1b（与低LOX活性相关）和杂合型,其频率分别为19.0％、70.4％和10.6％。小麦LOX活性基因不同变异类型在各生态区的分布存在明显差异：基因型TaLox-B1a在黄淮冬麦区、北部冬麦区和长江中下游冬麦区分布较多,其比例分别为21.1%、19.8%和17.6%;基因型TaLox-B1b在西南冬麦区和长江中下游冬麦区分布较多,比例分别为87.9%、72.5%;杂合型仅存在于北部冬麦区、黄淮冬麦区与长江中下游冬麦区,比例分别为14.2%、12.4%和9.8%。利用标记LOX16和LOX18对53个自选高代品系进行分子检测,发现自选品系仅有TaLox-B1b与杂合型两种基因型,其中基因型TaLox-B1ab有32个,比例为60.4%。采用分子标记辅助选择,有利于快速鉴定小麦籽粒LOX活性,加速LOX的遗传改良和新品种选育。     

典型草原枯落物分解过程中官能团的动态特征

选择锡林浩特东部国家气候观象台的生态监测研究样地,对大针茅(Stipa grandis)、羊草(Leymus chinensis)、糙隐子草(Cleistogenes squarrosa)、知母(Anemarrhena asphodeloides)枯落物的化学结构特征进行阐释。结果表明:(1)枯落物分解速率呈先增大后减小的变化趋势,且知母枯落物分解速率高于大针茅、羊草和糙隐子草;枯落物总碳(TC)含量为富集-释放模式,在第120d时,知母枯落物TC含量高于其他3种植物。(2)大针茅、羊草、知母、糙隐子草枯落物所含的主要官能团为-OH;=C-H、-CH 2、-CH 3;C=O;C=O、C=C;C-O。(3)不同植物枯落物官能团含量在分解初期迅速减少,在分解后期减少趋势较为缓慢,与分解过程中枯落物的分解速率变化趋势一致;知母的含碳官能团含量在分解结束后最低,而羊草的则最大,且知母和糙隐子草损失量最大,与分解过程中枯落物TC含量的特征一致。(4)大针茅的支链化指数最大,羊草的最小;糙隐子草的芳香性指数最大,知母的最小。不同植物芳香性指数在分解初期迅速减少,在分解后期减少趋势较为缓慢,与分解速率变化趋势一致。     

基于SSR分子标记的Nicotiana tobacum–N.plumbaginifolia异源染色体植株的鉴定与筛选

以烟草(Nicotiana tabacum)品种云烟87的八倍体(2n=8x=96)和野生烟草N. plumbaginifolia (2n=2x=20)的基因组DNA为模板,对340对烟草SSR引物进行筛选以获得能扩增多态性条带的引物。利用多态性引物对种间杂交后代及190株回交后代的基因组DNA进行扩增,并对N.plumbaginifolia中的SSR标记的连锁情况进行简要分析。经筛选获得了多态性引物29对。结果显示,在190株后代中, 159株的基因组DNA能扩增出N. plumbaginifolia的特异SSR位点,可以判定该159株为N. tabacum的N. plumbaginifolia异源染色体植株,其余31株植株可能不含有N. plumbaginifolia的染色体。经UPGMA聚类分析,本群体中植株的遗传多样性较为丰富,部分分子标记在后代中的出现具有完全相关性。29个标记中14个可确定来源于5条不同染色体,N.plumbaginifolia的29个位点在回交后代中的扩增效率并不相同,且效率均较低(低于31.00%),说明该杂种中N. plumbaginifolia基因组的垂直传递效率较低。利用SSR分子标记可以判定云烟87八倍体与N.plumbaginifolia杂交获得的后代为真杂种,且自该远缘杂种回交后代中筛选获得大量异源染色体植株。这些结果和筛选获得异源染色体植株为进一步创制N.tabacum-N.plumbaginifolia抗黑胫病单体附加系以及易位系奠定了基础。     

SSCP Marker Development and Analysis of Candidate Restorer Gene Rf1 for Cotton Cytoplasmic Male Sterility

[Objective] Locating the cotton cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) restorer gene Rf₁ is important for investigating restorer gene mechanisms and improving restorer lines. In our previous study, a gene cluster, with nine Pentatricopeptide repeat(PPR) genes and nine other genes, was found within the 160-kb Rf₁ target region in Scaffold 333. The objective here was to improve the density of Rf1-linked markers in the target region and determine the expression profiles of candidate genes. [Method] Using the sequences of the 18 genes, we designed 155 single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) primers covering all of the gene sequences to identify the polymorphic SSCP markers between the fertile and sterile pools. Additionally, real-time polymerase chain reaction(PCR) was performed to analyze the expression profiles of eight candidate genes in the four developmental stages of buds of sterile, maintainer and restoring lines, respectively. [Result] In total, 15 polymorphic primers were identified. A genotype analysis of the F₂ population was conducted using the 15 primers and 3 other polymorphic simple sequence repeats (SSR) markers. The markers were distributed in a 4.8 cM range. In addition, owing to the influence of sterile cytoplasm or restorer genes, most of the genes showed different expression patterns in the four developmental stages of the three lines' buds. [Conclusion] SSCP markers tightly linked to Rf₁ were identified and the expression profiles of candidate genes were determined. This study provides a basis for the further fine mapping of restorer genes and for candidate gene screening.     

四倍体马铃薯块茎蛋白含量分子标记的开发与验证

块茎蛋白含量是马铃薯的重要品质性状之一,相关分子标记的开发研究较少。本研究以马铃薯高蛋白品种大西洋、低蛋白品种定薯1号及包含173份子代的蛋白含量分离群体为材料,通过高通量简化基因组测序技术与集群分离分析(BSA)相结合,开发了SCAR8-107标记,并以此标记对分离群体的74份高蛋白、42份低蛋白子代及54个四倍体马铃薯品种验证表明,SCAR8-107标记在后代分离群体和四倍体马铃薯品种中的检测结果与表型蛋白含量的对应度分别达到了90.51%和72.97%,经过Pearson’s双侧相关性分析,相关性均达到了极显著水平。SCAR8-107的开发对于四倍体马铃薯块茎蛋白含量标记辅助选择与加速马铃薯品质育种具有重要意义。     

Breeding for boron tolerance in lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) using a high‐throughput phenotypic assay and molecular markers

This study describes the identification of a quantitative trait locus (QTL) in the recombinant inbred line population of ILL2024 × ILL6788 and subsequent validation of associated molecular markers. A high‐quality genetic linkage map was constructed with 758 markers that cover 1,057 cM, with an average intermarker distance of 2 cM. QTL analysis revealed a single genomic region on Lc2 to be associated with B tolerance and accounted for up to 76% of phenotypic variation (Vp). The best markers for B tolerance were assessed for their utility in routine breeding applications using validation panels of diverse lentil germplasm and breeding material derived from ILL2024. A marker generated from the dense genetic map of this study was found to be the most accurate of all markers available for B tolerance in lentil, with a success rate of 93% within a large breeding pool derived from ILL2024. However, given the number of the unrelated lines for which the marker–trait association was not conserved, B tolerance screening is still required at later stages to confirm predicted phenotypes.     

基于甘蔗热带种(LA-purple)全基因组序列的SSR开发及特征分析

现代甘蔗栽培品种(2n=100~130)是由甘蔗热带种(2n=80)与割手密(2n=40~128)种间杂交而来,形成异源多倍体、非整倍体作物,使得甘蔗栽培品种中80%~90%的染色体来源于热带种。开发热带种基因组SSR分子标记,有助于甘蔗遗传多样性分析、分子标记辅助选择、遗传图谱的构建等。本研究基于热带种LA-purple的全基因组测序数据的255 398个预测基因序列(累计总长为1 029 222 285 bp),利用Perl程序与生物信息学软件结合,发掘SSR位点,获得了153 150个SSR位点,平均每1.67个基因有1个SSR位点,其中二、三核苷酸重复基序分别为39 556个和50 072个,占总SSR位点数的58.5%。在二核苷酸重复基序中,TA/AT所占比例最高,占41.4%,CG/GC所占比例最低,占4.6%;在三核苷酸碱基重复基序中,TGT/ACA所占比例最高,为15.6%。在TA/AT重复类型中选取100个基序重复次数在60~90之间的SSR位点,进行引物设计与合成,在12个甘蔗属材料中进行PCR扩增分析,从中筛选出52对具有多态性SSR引物,其中有27对引物在研究的2个甘蔗栽培品种间表现为多态。这些基因组SSR标记的开发,不仅可以用于甘蔗栽培品种DNA指纹图谱分析,而且为甘蔗属不同种的遗传图谱构建、遗传多样性分析和重要性状的遗传机制解析奠定基础,为甘蔗分子育种研究提供重要支撑。     

Genomewide association analysis of salt tolerance in soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.]

Salinity is a common abiotic stress causing soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] yield loss worldwide. The use of tolerant cultivars is an effective and economic approach to coping with this stress. Towards this, research is needed to identify salt‐tolerant germplasm and better understand the genetic and molecular basis of salt tolerance in soybean. The objectives of this study were to identify salt‐tolerant genotypes, to search for single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and QTLs associated with salt tolerance. A total of 192 diverse soybean lines and cultivars were screened for salt tolerance in the glasshouse based on visual leaf scorch scores after 15–18 days of 120 mM NaCl stress. These genotypes were further genotyped using the SoySNP50K iSelect BeadChip. Genomewide association mapping showed that 62 SNP markers representing six genomic regions on chromosomes (Chr.) 2, 3, 5, 6, 8 and 18, respectively, were significantly associated with salt tolerance (p < 0.001). A total of 52 SNP markers on Chr. 3 are mapped at or near the major salt tolerance QTL previously identified in S‐100 (Lee et al., 2014). Three SNPs on Chr. 18 map near the salt tolerance QTL previously identified in Nannong1138‐2 (Chen, Cui, Fu, Gai, & Yu, 2008). The other significant SNPs represent four putative minor QTLs for salt tolerance, newly identified in this study. The results above lay the foundation for fine mapping, cloning and molecular breeding for soybean salt tolerance.     

不同氮肥处理下水稻功能叶片的多样性分析

探究不同水稻功能叶片在不同氮肥处理条件下的多样性,为选择遗传差异大且农艺性状表现差异大的育种材料提供理论基础。本试验以52份来自水稻种质资源库的水稻品种为材料,设正常施氮和不施氮2个处理,对供试品种的功能型叶片性状进行分析。结果表明,供试材料在不同氮肥处理下,功能叶片形态特征上存在丰富的遗传多样性。在不同处理条件下,倒一叶长与倒二叶长和倒三叶长均呈显著或极显著正相关;倒一叶宽与倒二叶宽和倒三叶宽均呈极显著正相关。在正常施氮和不施氮条件下分别获得3个主成分,累积贡献率分别达到94.5%和90.6%。通过对各品种进行综合评价,正常施氮条件下,排前5名的水稻材料分别为‘滇屯502’、‘玉米稻’、‘雅恢2115’、‘谷梅3号’和‘水源258’;在不施氮条件下,排前5名的水稻材料分别为‘玉米稻’、‘滇屯502’、‘巴西稻’、‘CDR22’和‘谷梅3号’。在水稻株型育种中,应注意利用具有丰富遗传多样性的种质资源,并在亲本选配时选择遗传距离较远且综合性状表现差异较大的种质材料。
