Segregation distortion of Brassica carinata derived black rot resistance in Brassica oleracea

Three segregating F₂ populations were developed by self-pollinating 3 black rot resistant F₁ plants, derived from across between black rot resistant parent line 11B-1-12 and the susceptible cauliflower cultivar ‘Snow Ball’. Plants were wound inoculated using 4 isolates ofXanthomonas campestris pv. campestris (Xcc) race 4, and disease severity ratings of F₂ plants from the three populations were scored. A total of 860 arbitrary oligonucleotide primers were used to amplify DNA from black rot resistant and susceptible F₂ plants and bulks. Eight RAPD markers amplified fragments associated with completely disease free plants following black rot inoculation,which segregated in frequencies far lower than expected. Segregation of markers with black rot resistance indicates that a single, dominant major gene controls black rot resistance in these plants. Stability of this black rot resistance gene in populations derived from 11B-1-12 may complicate introgression into B. oleracea genotypes for hybrid production. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Development of RAPD and ISSR derived SCAR markers linked to <Emphasis Type="Italic">Xca1Bo</Emphasis> gene conferring resistance to black rot disease in cauliflower (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Brassica oleracea</Emphasis> var. <Emphasis Type="Italic">botrytis</Emphasis> L.)

Black rot caused by Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris (Xcc) (Pam.) is the most devastating disease of cauliflower (Brassica oleracea var. botrytis L.; 2n = 2x = 18), taking a heavy toll of the crop. In this study, a random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR) derived sequence characterized amplified region (SCAR) markers linked to the black rot resistance locus Xca1bo were developed and evaluated as a screening tool for resistance. The RAPD marker OPO-04₈₃₃ and ISSR marker ISSR-11₆₃₅ were identified as closely linked at 1.6 cM distance to the black rot resistance locus Xca1bo. Both the markers OPO-04₈₃₃ and ISSR-11₆₃₅ were cloned, sequenced and converted into SCAR markers and validated in 17 cauliflower breeding lines having different genetic backgrounds. These SCAR markers (ScOPO-04₈₃₃ and ScPKPS-11₆₃₅) amplified common locus and showed 100% accuracy in differentiating resistant and susceptible plants of cauliflower breeding lines. The SCAR markers ScOPO-04₈₃₃ and ScPKPS-11₆₃₅ are the first genetic markers found to be linked to the black rot resistance locus Xca1bo in cauliflower. These markers will be very useful in black rot resistance marker assisted breeding.     

Construction of high-density linkage map and identification of QTLs associated with resistance to black rot in radish (Raphanus sativus) by RAD sequencing

High-density marker-based QTL mapping can serve as an effective strategy to identify novel genomic information to facilitate crop improvement. In this study, we genotyped an F₂ population (KB12-1 × PP12-1) using a RAD-seq approach and constructed a high-density linkage map for radish. After a series of filtering procedures were performed, 17,124 SNPs and 3,336 indels with aa × bb genotyping were retained to obtain bin markers. Then, a linkage map comprising a total of 1,221 bin markers in nine linkage groups spanning 1,467.3 cM with an average marker interval of 1.2 cM was constructed. We evaluated the resistance of the F₂ mapping population to black rot using F₃ progeny, and two major QTLs related to black rot resistance were identified based on this map. Among these QTLs, qBRR2 on Chr.2 explained 26.97% of the phenotypic variation with a LOD score of 11.93, and qBRR7 on Chr.7 accounted for 27.06% of the phenotypic variation with a LOD score of 11.83. The additive effect of qBRR2 was positive (14.97); however, qBRR7 had the opposite effect (−11.99). The high-density linkage map and the major QTLs qBRR2 and qBRR7 provide new important information for disease resistance gene discovery and utilization in genetic improvement.     

Inheritance of resistance to black rot (Xanthomonas campestris pv. Campestris) in cauliflower (Brassica oleracea var. Botrytis)

Summary Black rot disease caused by Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris is a limiting factor in the commercial production of the cauliflower crop. Crosses were attempted between SN 445, a mid season cultivar resistant to black rot and two highly susceptible commercial cultivars (Pusa Snowball-1 and K-1). Studies of the F₁'s, F₂'s and back crosses indicated that SN 445, carries a dominant gene imparting resistance to black rot.     

QTL mapping of fruit nutritional and flavor components in tomato (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Solanum lycopersicum</Emphasis>) using genome-wide SSR markers and recombinant inbred lines (RILs) from an intra-specific cross

Fruit nutritional and flavor components are important targets for breeding new cultivars of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.). We developed 108 recombinant inbred lines (the K39 RILs) in the F₆ generation from a cross between two phenotypically different breeding lines, K03 and K09. A linkage map was constructed using 172 genome-wide simple sequence repeat markers, 3 single-nucleotide polymorphism markers, and 2 phenotypic markers. The K39 RIL map consists of 12 linkage groups (LGs) and covers a genetic distance of 1089 cM. We measured the fruit soluble solids content (SSC), titratable acidity (TA), glutamic acid content (GLU), and lycopene content (LYC) of each line in four generations (F₆, F₈, F₁₀, F₁₁), β-carotene content (CAR) in two generations, and pH in one generation. By composite interval mapping that considered yearly variations in components as non-genetic effects, we detected three quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for SSC, four for TA, two for CAR, and one each for GLU, LYC, and pH. Among them, we found two QTLs for TA in LGs 6 and 11, those for GLU and LYC were candidates for novel QTLs. QTLs detected in this study were clustered in five LGs, but we observed no apparent trade-off relationships among the QTLs in each LG. Being derived from an intra-specific cross of tomato breeding materials, these QTLs can be used in practical breeding for improving fruit quality with low risk of linkage drag.     

Mapping of QTLs controlling epicotyl length in adzuki bean (Vigna angularis)

Epicotyl length (ECL) of adzuki bean (Vigna angularis) affects the efficiency of mechanized weeding and harvest. The present study investigated the genetic factors controlling ECL. An F₂ population derived from a cross between the breeding line ‘Tokei1121’ (T1121, long epicotyls) and the cultivar ‘Erimo167’ (common epicotyls) was phenotyped for ECL and genotyped using simple sequence repeats (SSRs) and single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers. A molecular linkage map was generated and fifty-two segregating markers, including 27 SSRs and 25 SNPs, were located on seven linkage groups (LGs) at a LOD threshold value of 3.0. Four quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for ECL, with LOD scores of 4.0, 3.4, 4.8 and 6.4, were identified on LGs 2, 4, 7 and 10, respectively; together, these four QTLs accounted for 49.3% of the phenotypic variance. The segregation patterns observed in F₅ residual heterozygous lines at qECL10 revealed that a single recessive gene derived from T1121 contributed to the longer ECL phenotype. Using five insertion and deletion markers, this gene was fine mapped to a ~255 kb region near the end of LG10. These findings will facilitate marker-assisted selection for breeding in the adzuki bean and contribute to an understanding of the mechanisms associated with epicotyl elongation.     

Genetic analysis and identification of QTLs for resistance to cucumber mosaic virus in chili pepper (Capsicum annuum L.)

A pepper (Capsicum annuum) inbred line ‘BJ0747-1-3-1-1’ was found to exhibit resistance to a cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) local isolate (CMV-HB). In order to exploit the genetic mechanism of CMV resistance in this pepper line, inheritance and genetic linkages of CMV resistance were studied. The CMV-resistant ‘BJ0747-1-3-1-1’ (P₁) was crossed to the susceptible line ‘XJ0630-2-1-2-1-1’ (P₂), and the F₂ and back-cross populations (B₁ and B₂) were generated for segregation analysis following a mixed inheritance model. Analysis of the segregation data revealed that CMV resistance in ‘BJ0747-1-3-1-1’ is controlled by two partially additive-dominant major genes and additive-dominant polygenes. Analysis of the results from two growth seasons also identified two stable and major QTLs for CMV resistance that collectively explained 55 % of the trait variation. One of the two major QTLs was found on linkage group 8 (LG8) between markers TS52 and HpmsE1-43, and accounted for 37.7–43.5 % of the variation in the two inoculation experiments. The other QTL on LG4 between markers UBC843 and S74 was found to be responsible for 10.7–11.2 % of the trait variation. QTLs with minor effects on CMV resistance were also identified. This work provides an example for genetic analysis and QTL mapping of other disease-resistance genes in pepper and the findings should be useful for molecular marker-assisted breeding programs that aim at developing disease-resistant cultivars in peppers.     

Identification of QTLs associated with resistance to Phomopsis pod blight (Diaporthe toxica) in Lupinus albus

Phomopsis blight in Lupinus albus is caused by a fungal pathogen, Diaporthe toxica. It can invade all plant parts, leading to plant material becoming toxic to grazing animals, and potentially resulting in lupinosis. Identifying sources of resistance and breeding for resistance remains the best strategy for controlling Phomopsis and reducing lupinosis risks. However, loci associated with resistance to Phomopsis blight have not yet been identified. In this study, quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis identified genomic regions associated with resistance to Phomopsis pod blight (PPB) using a linkage map of L. albus constructed previously from an F₈ recombinant inbred line population derived from a cross between Kiev-Mutant (susceptible to PPB) and {"type":"entrez-protein","attrs":{"text":"P27174","term_id":"14195583","term_text":"P27174"}}P27174 (resistant to PPB). Phenotyping was undertaken using a detached pod assay. In total, we identified eight QTLs for resistance to PPB on linkage group (LG) 3, LG6, LG10, LG12, LG17 and LG27 from different phenotyping environments. However, at least one QTL, QTL-5 on LG10 was consistently detected in both phenotyping environments and accounted for up to 28.2% of the total phenotypic variance. The results of this study showed that the QTL-2 on LG3 interacts epistatically with QTL-5 and QTL-6, which map on LG10 and LG12, respectively.     

Molecular breeding for resistance to black rot [<Emphasis Type="Italic">Xanthomonas campestris</Emphasis> pv. <Emphasis Type="Italic">campestris</Emphasis> (Pammel) Dowson] in <Emphasis Type="Italic">Brassicas</Emphasis>: recent advances

The Brassicas are affected by several diseases, of which black rot, Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris (Pam.) Dowson (Xcc), is one of the most widespread and devastating worldwide. The black rot bacteria causes systemic infection in the susceptible plants and penetrate the plants through the hydathodes or wounds. Typical disease symptoms are ‘V’ shaped necrotic lesions appearing from the leaf margins with blackened veins. Periodic outbreaks of the black rot pathogen have occurred worldwide, especially in the continental regions, where high temperatures and humidity favor the incidence of disease occurrence causing huge yield loss. The challenge to control the losses in vegetable brassicas production is made more difficult by the adverse climatic changes and evolution of new pathogenic races. The development of black rot resistant hybrids/varieties is the most reliable long term practical solution for effective disease control. Identification of new resistant genetic resources, tightly linked markers with resistance loci and QTL mapping would facilitate the breeding programme for black rot resistance. Information regarding genetics of resistance and mapping of resistance genes/QTLs will accelerate the marker assisted resistance breeding in brassica crops against Xcc. In future we need to identify the race specific candidate genes for and their validation through transgenics and gene expression. Moreover, it is imperative to identify functional markers for resistance genes through identification of R gene families and their relationship with resistance expression. This comprehensive review will help the researchers working in this area to understand the dynamics of black resistance breeding and to formulate future breeding strategies.     

Developing new markers and QTL mapping for greenbug resistance in sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench]

Greenbug is a major damaging insect to sorghum production in the United States. Among various virulent greenbug biotypes, biotype I is the most predominant and severe for sorghum. To combat with the damaging pest, greenbug resistant sources were obtained from screening sorghum germplasm collection. This experiment was conducted to identify the genomic regions contributing resistance to greenbug biotype I in a sorghum accession, PI 607900. An F₂ mapping population consisting of 371 individuals developed from a cross of the resistant line with an elite cultivar, BTx623 (susceptible) were tested and scored for their response to greenbug feeding in the greenhouse. Significant differences in resistance were observed between the two parental lines and among their F₂ progeny in response to greenbug feeding at 7, 10, 14 and 21 days after infestation. A linkage map spanning a total length of 729.5 cM across the genome was constructed with 102 polymorphic SSR markers (69 genomic and 33 EST SSRs). Of those microsatellite markers, 48 were newly developed during this study, which are a useful addition for sorghum genotyping and genome mapping. Single marker analysis revealed 29 markers to be significantly associated with the plant response to greenbug feeding damage. The results from interval mapping, composite interval mapping and multiple interval mapping analyses identified four major QTLs for greenbug resistance on chromosome 9. These QTLs collectively accounted for 34–82 % of the phenotypic variance in greenbug resistance. Minor QTLs located on chromosome 3 explained 1 % of the phenotypic variance in greenbug resistance. The major allele for greenbug resistance was on chromosome 9 close to receptor-like kinase Xa21-binding protein 3. These markers are useful to screen more resistant genotypes. Furthermore, the markers tagged to QTL regions can be used to enhance the sorghum breeding program for greenbug resistance through marker-assisted selection and map-based cloning.     

Linkage fine-mapping and QTLs affecting morpho-agronomic traits of a Mesoamerican × Andean RIL common bean population

This paper proposes the construction of a genetic linkage map with 376 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) derived from a cross between Mesoamerican?×?Andean common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L) parents based on single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers; and to detect quantitative trait loci (QTLs) associated with seven morpho-agronomic traits: number of days to flowering (DF), number of days to maturity (DM) or crop cycle; plant architecture (ARC); seed yield (YLD); degree of seed flatness (SF); seed shape (SS); and 100-seed weight (SW). A total of 3060 polymorphic SNP markers were used and 2041 segregated at a 1:1 ratio in the RIL population, as expected. These markers were subjected to linkage analysis in each chromosome. The genetic linkage analysis resulted in linkage maps with a total of 1962 markers spanning 1079.21 cM. A total of 29 QTLs associated with seven morpho-agronomic traits were detected on the 11 chromosomes, which explained between 3.83 and 32.92% of the phenotypic variation in DF. A total of 18 candidate genes associated with the detected QTLs were identified and related with biological processes, molecular functions and cellular components.     

QTL analysis of resistance to powdery mildew in hop (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Humulus lupulus</Emphasis> L.)

Hop with powdery mildew [HPM: caused by Podosphaera macularis (Wallr.) U. Braun & S. Takam.] results in significant losses in hop production by reducing yield and quality. One means of increasing yield and quality is the production of resistant hop lines. Breeding for resistance can be significantly improved and accelerated by use of marker-assisted selection. The objective of this preliminary study was to identify QTLs and markers for genetic resistance to HPM. A bi-parental mapping population between the resistant line “Newport” and susceptible line ‘21110M’. Phenotypic data was scored under controlled greenhouse conditions. Significant differences among offspring were observed and disease resistance did not follow a distinct binomial distribution, suggesting quantitative genetic control. Genotyping-by-sequencing resulted in approximately 375 K SNP markers, which were filtered down to 2263 markers mapped to 10 linkage groups. Interval Mapping identified four QTLs with one on linkage group 1 and three located on linkage group 6. Composite interval mapping identified three QTLs, all located on linkage group 6. Mixed linear models identified 15 markers associated with expression of resistance to HPM. Three of these 15 SNPs were also identified in QTL-CIM analysis. Evaluation of the scaffolds containing the significant SNP markers identified seven putative genes—several of which appear involved in disease resistance in other plant species. The SNP markers identified in this study still require validation in unrelated populations prior to implementation in breeding programs.     

A major QTL associated with preharvest sprouting in rapeseed (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Brassica napus</Emphasis> L.)

Preharvest sprouting (PHS) is one of the most important factors affecting the cereal production worldwide, in regions characterized by rainfall and high humidity during harvest season. It is sometimes a problem in rapeseed (Brassica napus L.), especially in production of commercial F₁ hybrids. To detect quantitative trait loci (QTL) controlling PHS, a F₂ population consisting of 269 F_2:3 lines was created from the cross between a PHS-tolerant line (117AB) and a PHS-susceptible line (7,605). A linkage map was constructed using 35 Simple Sequence Repeat markers and 242 Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism markers. PHS was measured as a percentage of sprouted seeds on the mother plant, 7 days after physiological maturity. Five putative QTLs for PHS were detected and located on LG2 (N11) and LG7 (N3), respectively. Phenotypic variance explained by each QTL ranged from 4.11 to 50.78% and the five putative QTLs explained about 75.63% of the total phenotypic variance. A major QTL was identified on LG2 (N11) flanked by P3C4180 and C6C13160, which explained 50.78% of the total phenotypic variance. Meanwhile, we detected four significant epistatic interactions with a total contribution of 17.16% of the total phenotypic variance.     

Genetic mapping of gummy stem blight (Didymella bryoniae) resistance genes in Cucumis sativus-hystrix introgression lines

Gummy stem blight (GSB, Didymella bryoniae (Auersw.) Rehm) is a devastating disease occurring worldwide in cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) production and causing considerable yield loss. No commercially available cultivars are resistant to GSB. By screening 52 introgression lines (ILs) derived from the cross of C. hystrix × C. sativus and eight cucumber cultivar/lines through a whole plant assay, three ILs (HH1-8-1-2, HH1-8-5, HH1-8-1-16) were identified as GSB resistant lines. Six common introgression regions in these three ILs were on Chromosomes 1, 4, and 6. To further map the resistance in the ILs, three mapping populations (2009F₂, 2009F₂′ and 2010F₂) from a cross between resistant IL HH1-8-1-2 and susceptible 8419 were constructed and used for QTL mapping with SSR markers. Two quantitative trait loci (QTLs) were identified; one on Chromosome 4 and the other on Chromosome 6. The interval for Chromosome 4 QTL is 12 cM spanning 3.569 Mbp, and the interval for Chromosome 6 QTL is 11 cM covering 1.299 Mbp. The mapped QTLs provide a foundation for map-based cloning of the genes and establishing an understanding of the associated mechanisms underlying GSB resistance in cucumber.     

Molecular mapping and identification of QTL's associated to oat crown rust partial resistance

Summary Molecular mapping is a promising strategy for studying and understanding traits with complex genetic control, such as partial resistance to oat crown rust. The objectives of this research were to develop molecular maps from the progenies of the cross UFRGS7 (susceptible) × UFRGS910906 (partially resistant) and to identify QTLs (quantitative trait loci) associated to partial resistance to oat crown rust in two generations of that population.DNA of 86 genotypes of the F₂ and 90 genotypes of the F₆ UFRGS7 × UFRGS910906 population were used to generate AFLP markers. Molecular maps were constructed using Mapmaker Exp. 3.0 and QTLs for partial resistance to oat crown rust were identified with Mapmaker/QTL software. Five hundred and fifty seven markers in the F₂ and 243 markers in the F₆ generations were identified. The F₂ map integrated 250 markers in 37 linkage groups. The F₆ map integrated 86 markers in 17 linkage groups.Five QTLs were identified for partial resistance to oat crown rust in the F₂ generation and three QTLs in the F₆. The QTL identified on F₆ through the PaaaMctt340 AFLP marker showed consistency across two environments and two generations (F₄ and F₆), and appear to have potential for marker-assisted selection in oat.     

利用3个F_2群体整合高密度栽培种花生遗传连锁图

遗传图谱的构建及整合是开展花生分子育种研究的基础,利用多个作图群体整合遗传图谱是解决图谱标记密度低的有效途径。本研究采用基于锚定SSR标记的作图策略,构建3个F_2群体3张遗传连锁图,利用Join Map 3.0软件整合图谱,获得一张包含20个连锁群、792个位点、总遗传距离为2079.50 c M,标记间平均距离为2.63 c M的整合图谱,各连锁群标记数在20~66个之间,遗传距离在59.10~175.80 c M之间。将3个分离群体中检测到的与荚果及种子大小相关的QTL区段与整合连锁图的标记比较发现,各群体中检测到的位于各染色体上的QTL在整合图谱中都能出现,有些QTL标记区间在整合图谱中存在更多的标记,为今后利用这些标记进行精细定位奠定了基础。     

DNA marker for resistance to Puccinia horiana in chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum morifolium Ramat.) “Southern Pegasus”

White rust caused by Puccinia horiana Henn. adversely affects chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum morifolium Ramat.) production. The breeding of resistant varieties is effective in controlling the disease. Here we aimed to develop DNA markers for the strong resistance to P. horiana. We conducted a linkage analysis based on the genome-wide association study (GWAS) method. We employed a biparental population for the GWAS, wherein the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) allele frequency could be predicted. The population was derived from crosses between a strong resistant “Southern Pegasus” and a susceptible line. The GWAS used simplex and double-simplex SNP markers selected out of SNP candidates mined from ddRAD-Seq data of an F₁ biparental population. These F₁ individuals segregated in a 1:1 ratio of resistant to susceptible. Twenty-one simplex SNPs were significantly associated with P. horiana resistance in “Southern Pegasus” and generated one linkage group. These results show the presence of a single resistance gene in “Southern Pegasus”. We identified the nearest SNP marker located 2.2 cM from P. horiana resistance locus and demonstrated this SNP marker-resistance link using an independent population. This is the first report of an effective DNA marker linked to a gene for P. horiana resistance in chrysanthemum.     

Quantitative trait locus analysis for days-to-heading and morphological traits in an RIL population derived from an extremely late flowering F<Subscript>1</Subscript> hybrid of sorghum

The hybrid vigor typical of F₁ cultivars is used to boost biomass production of sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench). The high dry-matter yielding F₁ cultivar Kazetachi uniquely shows extremely late flowering and a long culm, and is greatly different from its parents. We investigated the genetic mechanisms underlying these phenotypes by quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis of recombinant inbred lines derived from a male-fertile line and a restorer line and grown in 3 years. QTL analysis for six traits (days-to-heading, culm length, culm width, culm number, panicle length, panicle number) revealed that the unique phenotypes of the F₁ plants were controlled by the genetic combination of 12 or more QTLs detected in at least 2 years. Two putative QTLs for days-to-heading (qDH1 on SBI-01 and qDH6 on SBI-06) would strongly affect the other phenotypes because of their co-localization with QTLs for other traits, as supported by significant phenotypic correlations. These QTLs would be useful for understanding the association of plant type with biomass production in sorghum.     

Molecular mapping of a gene conferring resistance to Aphanomyces root rot (black root) in sugar beet (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Beta vulgaris</Emphasis> L.)

Caused by Aphanomyces cochlioides Drechsler, Aphanomyces root rot is a serious disease of sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.), for which sources of resistance are scarce. To identify the segregation pattern of the rare resistance trait found in Japanese sugar beet line ‘NK-310mm-O’, F₁ and BC₁F₂ seedings, drawn from a cross between ‘NK-310mm-O’ and susceptible line ‘NK-184mm-O’, were inoculated with zoospores and their survival evaluated in the greenhouse. Resistance segregation followed was that of a single dominant gene, which was designated Acr1 (Aphanomyces cochlioides resistance 1). Molecular markers tightly linked to Acr1 were identified by bulked segregant analysis of two BC₁F₂ populations. Fourteen AFLP markers linked to Acr1 were identified, the closest located within ±3.3 cM. Three F₅ lines and two BC₂F₁ lines, selected on the basis of their Acr1-AFLP markers, were tested for their resistance to Aphanomyces root rot in a highly infested field. Results indicated that Acr1 conferred significant resistance to Aphanomyces root rot at the field level. Based on its linkage with CAPS marker tk, a representative marker for chromosome III, Acr1 was located on this chromosome. The clear linkage between tk and Rhizomania resistance trait Rz1, suggests the clustering of major disease resistance genes on chromosome III.     

Mapping of QTLs in tomato line FLA456 associated with resistance to a virus causing tomato yellow leaf curl disease

Tomato (yellow) leaf curl disease (TYLCD) is a serious threat to tomato production in the tropics and subtropics. The genetics of resistance to Tomato yellow leaf curl Thailand virus Taiwan strain (TYLCTHV-[TW]) in a highly resistant tomato line FLA456 was studied through quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis. Four QTLs named qTy4.1, qTy6.1, qTy10.1 and qTy11.1 were detected on chromosomes 4, 6, 10, and 11, respectively, through evaluation of an F₆ recombinant inbred line (RIL) population derived from a cross between FLA456 (resistant) and CLN1621L (susceptible). Gene action of all QTLs was recessive based on disease reaction of the F₁. The markers SINAC1 and SLM4-34 flanked qTy4.1 on chromosome 4, and SLM11-12 and SLM11-17 defined qTy11.1, which co-located with the previously identified Ty-5 and Ty-2 loci, respectively. qTy6.1 was flanked by the markers SLM6-55 and TES-0014, and qTy10.1 by the markers SLM10-80-SLM10-46 on chromosomes 6 and 10. The LOD values of the putative QTLs ranged from 2.79 to 13.76. The phenotypic variance explained by each QTL ranged from 7.1 to 31.9 %. The four QTLs collectively contributed about 60.5 % of the phenotypic variation in resistance against TYLCTHV-[TW]. Group mean severity scores of those RILs possessing three or four qTy were generally lower than RIL groups with only one or no qTy. Given the diversity of begomoviruses that cause TYLCD across the regions, the new QTLs from FLA456 would be valuable in tomato breeding for developing varieties with durable resistance. Two QTL intervals (qTy4.1 and qTy10.1) contained virus resistance candidate genes such as CTV.22 and eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E.
