Genetic differentiation and diversity upon genotype and phenotype in cowpea (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Vigna unguiculata</Emphasis> L. Walp.)

The evolution of species is complex and subtle which always associates with the genetic variation and environment adaption during active/passive spread or migration. In crops, this process is usually driven and influenced by human activities such as domestication, cultivation and immigration. One method to discover this process is to analyze the genetic diversity of those crops in different regions. This research first assessed the similarity and differentiation between genetic diversity of genotype and phenotype in 768 world-wild cowpea germplasm which were collected by USDA and US breeding programs. Totally 1048 genotyping by sequencing (GBS) derived single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and 17 agronomic traits were used to analyze the genetic diversity, distance, cluster and phylogeny. The group differentiation was analyzed based on both the genotype distances from 1048 SNP markers and the phenotypic (Mahalanobis) distance D2 from 11 traits. A consistent result of diversity in genotype (polymorphism information content, PIC) and phenotype (Shannon and Simpson index) indicated that the East Africa and South Asia sub-continents were the original and secondary regions of cowpea domestication. Both dendrograms built by genetic distance present relationship among different regions, and the Mantel coefficient showed medium correlation level (r = 0.58) between genotype and phenotype. The information of both genotypic and phenotypic differentiations may help us to understand evolution and migration of cowpea more comprehensively and also will inform breeders how to use cowpea germplasm in breeding programs.     

Genetic diversity in cornsalad (Valerianella locusta) and related species as determined by AFLP markers

Fifteen amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) EcoRI/MseI‐based primer combinations with five selective bases (Eco RI‐ANN, MseI‐CN) were used to estimate genetic diversity among 45 line varieties of cultivated cornsalad and 19 genebank accessions classified into nine different species related to cornsalad. Polymorphic fragments were scored for calculation of Jaccard's coefficient of genetic similarity (GS). The average GS estimate in elite germplasm (GS = 0.90) was substantially higher than in exotic germplasm (GS = 0.47). UPGMA‐cluster analysis revealed genetic relationships among recently bred varieties, old varieties and genebank accessions. Analysis of molecular variance indicated almost threefold variability within sets compared with between sets due to a high level of polymorphism among wild species. Sources for increasing genetic diversity in elite germplasm of cornsalad were suggested and a duplicate among the genebank accessions was detected. AFLPs could be considered a powerful tool for genetic diversity estimation in cornsalad germplasm and are recommended for systematic fingerprinting of remaining cornsalad species.

Biodiversity in a germplasm collection of durum wheat

Summary Over 7,600 durum wheat accessions belonging to 22 country gene pools were evaluated in Syria, during the seasons 1985–86 through 1987–88 under semi-arid Mediterranean climatic conditions. Data on seven agronomic traits are presented to assess the distinctiveness and the phenotypic diversity of these pools. Univariate statistical analysis revealed differences among materials of diverse origins for all traits. Mean phenotypic diversity within countries was highest in the germplasm from India, lowest in that from Bulgaria. In a canonical variate analysis, the first three canonical variables explained 77.7% of the total variance. A cluster analysis was performed to supplement the generated information by the canonical analysis. The multivariate analyses evidenced the distinctiveness of the Ethiopian germplasm. The gene pools from Syria and Jordan, closely resembling each other, appeared separate from all others. A certain peculiarity was also shown by the germplasms from Greece, Morocco and France, while the remaining countries clustered into four groups. The results of the present evaluation could provide useful information for breeding activities, germplasm collection, and establishment of core collections. Evidence is presented that environment played a major role in creating the overall variation for the considered traits, although germplasm exchange seemed also an important factor.     

Allozyme differentiation of European populations and cultivars of Lolium perenne L., and the relation to ecogeographical factors

Summary Sixty Lolium perenne populations were screened for allozyme diversity at five loci. Objective was to determine whether allozyme diversity could be used as selection criterion for genebank accessions of L. perenne. Subsampling of locations was tested with allozyme analysis to determine whether genetically different populations could be collected at one location. Correlations between allelic frequencies and environmental factors and morphological data were established, to find ecogeographical patterns in the observed variation. Results indicated that with few examples each allelic variant could be observed in each population screened; very few unique alleles were found. Differences between populations were largely due to differences in allelic frequencies. Few correlations were found with environmental factors and morphological data. For some allele frequencies a north-south cline was observed. Generally, allozymic data of the five screened loci did not appear to be useful for the selection of accessions for genebank storage. Significant genotypic differences between populations collected at one location could be established. In general these results agreed with earlier results concerning phenotypic variation in the same populations.     

Estimation of phenotypic divergence in a collection of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Capsicum</Emphasis> species for yield-related traits

Phenotypic divergence among the 24 accessions belonging to a collection of six species of Capsicum from different geoclimatic regions available in field gene bank of CIMAP, Lucknow, India, was quantified by multivariate analysis for 12 quantitative and qualitative traits. Based on their values, all 24 accessions were grouped into six clusters such that the genetic stocks within cluster had smaller D ² values among themselves than those belonging to different clusters. The accessions of Capsicum annuum were distributed in different clusters in morphotyping representing different species, suggesting that taxonomic characteristics are not always related to agronomic traits. No parallelism/association was found between geographical and phenotypic diversity. Accessions 15 and 23 (clusters V and VI, respectively) had distinct identity. The three characteristics that played the greatest role in differentiation were fruit diameter, number of fruits per plant, and leaf diameter, which can be utilized as conventional/morphological markers for the improvement of chilli yield and obtaining good segregants in chilli breeding programs.     

Genetic diversity for agronomic and fiber traits in day-neutral accessions derived from primitive cotton germplasm

Upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutumL) is an important crop that is cultivated in warm climates through-out the world. Agronomic performance and fiber quality must continually be improved if cotton is to maintain economic viability. Primitive ancestors of cotton contain diversity for trait improvement; however, many of these accessions have a short-day flowering response (photoperiodic) and are not readily useable in breeding programs. In this study, 114 day-neutral derived primitive germplasm lines were evaluated in field trials for two years. Agronomic and fiber trait data were collected and analyzed. Variance components, genotypic values, and genotypic correlations were calculated. Genotypic effects for all traits studied made significant contributions to the phenotypic variation indicating genetic diversity among these lines. The predicted genotypic values showed a wide range of variation for agronomic and fiber traits. Weak genotypic correlations were found between yield and 2.5% span length and fiber strength, two important fiber traits. Although these day-neutral derived accessions had lower lint percentage, they had improved fiber length, strength, micronaire, and comparable yields with two commercial cultivars. Thus, these day-neutral derived accessions are sources of genetic variation that when used in breeding programs offer the potential to improve important traits and expand genetic diversity.Contribution of the USDA-ARS in cooperation with the Mississippi Agric. and Forestry Exp.

The nabicol: A horticultural crop in northwestern Spain

Nabicol (B. napus L. var. pabularia) is a traditional crop in the Northwest of Iberian Peninsula (South of Galicia and North of Portugal) where it is grown during the winter season on small farms and gardens using traditional varieties. A collection of 36 populations of nabicol from Galicia (northwestern Spain) was evaluated during 2002 and 2003 in two locations and two growing seasons (spring/summer and autumn/spring) for 28 agronomic and morphological traits. The objectives of this study were to: (i) evaluate a collection of nabicol landraces from northwestern Spain, (ii) determine the suitability of this germplasm as a summer crop and (iii) study the genetic diversity among local populations. Significant differences were observed among populations for most traits. Genotype × environment interaction was significant for most of them. Spring/summer growing season could be recommended for growing nabicol but resistance to Lepidoptera pests attacking Brassica crops should be improved. Most populations had an agronomic value similar to the commercial variety. The most promising variety for horticultural use was MBG-BRS0063, which showed the highest yield. Morphological and agronomic data were subjected to cluster analysis and four groups were defined with a group clustering most populations. The low genetic diversity could be explained because populations were collected in close geographical areas and the selection made by farmers was always for a horticultural use. These results give information about the diversity and breeding value of the nabicol Spanish germplasm, which could be useful in breeding programs.     

Classification of a collection of sesame germplasm using multivariate analysis

Sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) is an important edible oil crop. Meteorological factors such as temperature, rainfall, and the amount of solar radiation determine the yield potential of sesame. To identify phenotypic diversity and to infer genotypic backgrounds in a collection of 250 sesame germplasm accessions, we classified the germplasm based on variation in morphological traits using principal component (PC) and cluster analysis. The sesame germplasm was grouped based on five PCs, which accounted for 82.3% of total variation. The first PC (PC1) was positively correlated with days to flowering, days to maturity, and number of capsules per plant, whereas the second PC (PC2) was negatively correlated with all characteristics except capsule-bearing stem length. The third component (PC3) was highly positively correlated with capsule length and plant height. We constructed a scatter diagram of the first two PCs (PC1 vs. PC2), revealing four distinct groups of eigenvectors. Most sesame germplasm was widely distributed among Groups I, II, III, and IV. Group III showed a wide range of distribution in the diagram. Otherwise, the distribution of the 250 germplasm accessions was more compact in a scatter diagram of PC1 vs. PC3 compared with PC1 vs. PC2. Groups I, II, III, and IV contained 142, 102, 2, and 3 sesame germplasm accessions, respectively. The two germplasm in Group III were collected from different regions, as were the three germplasm in Group IV. The results show that the distribution of sesame origin is wider than the regions examined in view of phenotypic diversity.
