Molecular marker analysis of genetic variation characterizing a grasspea (Lathyrus sativus) collection from central Italy

Levels of genetic similarity characterizing 20 grasspea (Lathyrus sativus L.) populations collected in central Italy (17 populations in the Marche region and three populations in the Abruzzo region) were analysed with amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) molecular markers. Two main clusters were found: one included large‐seeded populations from farms that were not market‐oriented (named Household populations) and the second, small‐seeded populations, cultivated in market‐oriented farms (named Commercial populations). Relationships among populations collected in different regions were found, although one population of the Abruzzo region was placed between the two main clusters, suggesting a possible further genetic differentiation within this grasspea germplasm collection. Principal component analysis based on AFLP marker frequency was effective in identifying polymorphic markers showing high discriminating ability between clusters H and C. In particular, seven markers showing high positive and three markers with low negative PC1 scores showed an almost cluster‐specific distribution. These results will be useful for enhancing Italian grasspea germplasm use in plant‐breeding programmes and for extending grasspea cultivation within the sustainable agricultural systems of central Italy.     

乙烯受体ETR1基因同源性分析及乙烯敏感性与植物采后寿命的关系

将37种不同科属植物及5个不同月季品种的ETR1核苷酸、氨基酸序列进行同源性分析并构建了分子系统发生树,并对植物的呼吸跃变类型、乙烯敏感性及采后寿命的关系进行了归纳和分析.结果表明,在核苷酸水平上,分子性状的同源性与形态性状同源性具有一致性,但月季不同品种种间差异大于异源植物的属间差异.氨基酸序列的同源性分析结果与核苷酸相似,但仍存在差异,可能由于氨基酸密码子简并性、翻译起始位置的不同、ETR1片段大小的差异所造成.在蛋白质水平上,所分析的ETR1片段均具有高度保守结构域.植物的呼吸跃变类型虽与内源乙烯的生成有密切的关系,但与外源乙烯的敏感性无直接关系;植物对外源乙烯的敏感性与植物采后寿命的关系更为密切.

不同温度对大豆种子萌发影响的研究

通过对东农42、东农43、东农163、合丰25、绥农10号采用六种发芽温度4℃、8℃、12℃、15℃、20℃、25℃下温度对大豆种子萌发影响的研究,表明：4℃、8℃温度过低,在调查期间种子一直没有发芽。其它几个温度的发芽率以15℃为最高,12℃为最低,同前人研究发芽率随温度升高而升高不同。同一温度不同品种的发芽率、平均芽长在品种间差异显著,说明种子萌发受遗传因素影响,同一品种不同温度之间的平均芽长随温度的升高依次升高。实验的研究有利于确定大豆的田间播种温度,为适时早播,保证田间种子的发芽,出苗,成苗,及时的成熟提供依据,并为最终的高产奠定基础。     

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.     

50年来湘中地区气候极值与农业气候指标动态变化趋势

利用湘中地区1961-2010年气象站逐日观测数据资料,选取与农作物密切相关的气候极值和农业气候指标,采用统计检验、趋势分析和Mann-Kendall突变检验等的方法,分析了湘中地区农业水热气候条件和气候极值,进而研究主要农业气候指标的变化倾向。研究发现：湘中地区近50年来,水热资源总体呈增加趋势;年强降水量呈增大趋势,尤其以夏季强降水量增加最为明显,表明夏季洪涝灾害的威胁加大;最高(低)气温阈值的变化表明极端高(低)温均呈缓解趋势,及其出现的天数在减少,说明由极端气候引起高温热害、低温冷害等气象灾害发生的可能性减小;≥0℃和≥10℃积温分别在1997年和2000年开始突变,上升趋势明显,表明湘中地区有效热量资源在增加;霜冻日数呈减小趋势,说明霜冻危害发生的风险在减小。这对确定合适的农业气候指标值和促进农业生产有重要的指导意义。     

小麦白粉病成株抗性和抗倒伏性及穗下节长度的QTL定位

由小麦品种花培3号和豫麦57杂交获得了DH群体168个株系, 利用305个SSR标记对白粉病成株抗性、抗倒伏性和穗下节长度进行了QTL定位研究。DH群体及两亲本于2005年和2006年种植于山东泰安, 2006年种于安徽宿州。利用基于混合线性模型的QTLNetwork 2.0软件, 共检测到12个加性效应位点和10对上位效应位点。在4D染色体上控制白粉病成株抗性的qApr4D, 贡献率为20.0%, 在各环境中稳定表达, 其抗病等位基因来源于抗病亲本豫麦57; 在7D染色体上控制小麦穗下节长度的qIlbs7D, 贡献率为12.9%, 在各环境中稳定表达。加性效应和上位效应对小麦白粉病成株抗性、抗倒伏性和穗下节长度的遗传起重要作用, 并且基因与环境常常具有互作效应。以上两个QTL可分别用于小麦白粉病成株抗性和穗下节长度的分子标记辅助选择。     

利用BC2F2高代回交群体定位水稻籽粒大小和形状QTL

以我国优良籼稻恢复系蜀恢527为轮回亲本, 以来自菲律宾的Milagrosa为供体亲本, 培育了样本容量为199株的BC₂F₂高代回交群体。选取85个均匀分布在12条染色体上的多态性SSR标记进行基因型分析, 同时对粒长、粒宽、长宽比和千粒重4种性状进行了表型鉴定。采用性状－标记间的单向和双向方差分析对上述性状进行了QTL定位。单向方差分析(P<0.01)共检测到了10个控制粒长、粒宽、长宽比和千粒重的QTL, 其中有3个具有多效性。由于粒长和长宽比的高度相关性, 控制长宽比的2个QTL均能在粒长QTL中检测到。位于第3染色体着丝粒区域的qgl3b是一个控制粒长、长宽比和千粒重的主效QTL, 它可以分别解释粒长、长宽比和千粒重表型变异的29.37%、26.15%和17.15%。该QTL对于粒长、长宽比和千粒重均表现较大的加性效应(来自蜀恢527的等位基因为增效)和负向超显性。位于第8染色体的qgw8位点是一个控制粒宽的主效QTL, 同时也是控制千粒重的微效QTL, 能解释粒宽表型变异的21.47%和千粒重表型变异的5.16%。该QTL对粒宽和千粒重均具有较大的加性效应(来自蜀恢527的等位基因为增效)和正向部分显性。双向方差分析(P<0.005)共检测到61对显著的上位性互作, 涉及54个QTL, 其中23个是能同时影响2~4个性状的多效位点, 且有8个位点与单向方差分析检测到的相同。控制长宽比的13对上位性互作位点中, 与控制粒长的上位性互作位点完全相同的有8对。以上结果为进一步开展水稻籽粒大小和形状有利基因的精细定位、克隆和分子设计育种奠定了基础。

Classification of Peruvian highland maize races using plant traits

The maize of Latin America, with its enormous diversity, has played an important role in the development of modern maize cultivars of the American continent. Peruvian highland maize shows a high degree of variation stemming from its history of cultivation by Andean farmers. Multivariate statistical methods for classifying accessions have become powerful tools for classifying genetic resources conservation and the formation of core subsets. This study has two objectives: (1) to use a numerical classification strategy for classifying eight Peruvian highland races of maize based on six vegetative traits evaluated in two years and (2) to compare this classification with the existing racial classification. The numerical classification maintained the main structure of the eight races, but reclassified parts of the races into new groups (Gi). The new groups are more separated and well defined with a decreasing accession within group × environment interaction. Most of the accessions from G1 are from Cusco Gigante, all of the accessions from G3 (except one) are from Confite Morocho, and all of the accessions from G7 are from Chullpi. Group G2 has four accessions from Huayleño and four accessions from Paro, whereas G4 has four accessions from Huayleño and five accessions from San Geronimo. Group G5 has accessions from four races, and G6 and G8 formed small groups with two and one accession each, respectively. These groups can be used for forming core subsets for the purpose of germplasm enhancement and assembling gene pools for further breeding.
