AbstractThe hybrid purity of melon (Cucumis melo L.) was tested by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay based on simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers in two F1 melon hybrids (‘Dongfangmi 1’ and ‘Dongfangmi 2’) and their parental lines. Twelve pairs of SSR primers for ‘Dongfangmi 1’ and three pairs for ‘Dongfangmi 2’ were selected. Results showed that self-inbred seeds were effectively distinguished from F1 hybrid seeds using these SSR primers, a finding that was consistent with the results recorded from field tests. ‘Dongfangmi 1’ and ‘Dongfangmi 2’ were identified from their parental lines, and seven other uterine hybrid lines by multiplex primers MS48+MS60 and MS4+MS20, respectively. Contamination of F1 hybrid seeds caused by self-inbred and other unknown pollens can be effectively and more reliably detected by PCR assays with multiplex SSR primers.

In this study, simple sequence repeat (SSR) and sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) markers were used to analyze the genetic diversity of 48 wild Vitis davidii accessions. A total of 78 distinct alleles were amplified by 11 SSR primers, and the average allele number was 8.8. The average observed heterozygosity (Ho) and expected heterozygosity (He) values were 0.785 and 0.814, respectively. The effective allele numbers ranged from 3.92 to 9.61. The average polymorphism information content (PIC) was 0.798. Twelve of 169 SRAP primer combinations were selected for SRAP analysis. A total of 188 bands were produced, and the average was 15.7 bands per primer combination; the average percentage of polymorphic bands was 84.0%. The average PIC was 0.76. The results of the clustering analysis based on SSR markers showed that the 48 wild V. davidii accessions could be classified into five main clusters and had a genetic similarity coefficient level of 0.68. The dendrogram obtained from the SRAP data showed that 48 wild V. davidii accessions could be classified into five main clusters and had a genetic similarity coefficient of 0.72. SSR and SRAP markers differentiated all accessions studied including those with a similar pedigree. We speculated on the origin of Ciputao 0941♀, Ciputao 0940♂, and Fu’an-ci-01 using SSR markers and used both SSR and SRAP markers to resolve homonymy. The result will be valuable for further management and protection of V. davidii germplasm resources.

Salix psammophila C. Wang et Ch. Y. Yang is an important desert shrub that is mainly distributed in northwest China, including the Mu Us sandland and Kubuqi desert. It plays a crucial role in vegetation rehabilitation and as a forestation plant. The traditional identification of its accessions based on phenotypic traits is usually unreliable. SSR (Simple Sequence Repeat) has the advantages of repeatability and codominant inheritance, and most species have had specific SSR primers developed for them already. Currently, there is no simple and rapid method used for identifying the tetraploid Salix psammophila with SSR markers. In this study, we construct fingerprints among 261 accessions of S. psammophila by screening of marker combinations. We identified a nine-marker combination which could completely distinguish each of the 261 accessions to their unique fingerprinting profiles. For this marker combination (G+I+J+N+O+Q+S+T+U), identification rate of combined markers (MC2) and total Polymorphism Information Content (PIC) were the highest, at 100% and 6.05, respectively. We used fingerprinting profiles with the nine-marker combination to produce two-dimensional barcodes, which could be screened rapidly and conveniently using a barcode scanned by a computer. The results of this study can provide an efficient genetic toolkit for identification, traceability management and protection of intellectual property rights of particular accessions of tetraploid S. psammophila.

Conformation Polymorphism

Simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers are widely used in plant genetics and breeding. However, there are many SSR markers that do not reveal polymorphism in cotton. Traditional SSR genotyping methods only provide information on product sizes. This leaves many marker polymorphism undetected, thus, lowering the utility of SSRs. In the present study, monomorphic SSRs between two mapping parents, ‘Emian22’ and 3-79, were subjected to single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) analysis to reveal polymorphism. Of the 4194 monomorphic SSR primer pairs, 158 pairs (3.77%) showed polymorphism and revealed 174 polymorphic loci. Sequence analysis showed that the differences in PCR products between the mapping parents were solely due to base transition or transversion, which was in agreement with SSCP principles. SSCP also revealed SSRs with motifs of AT/TA and GAA/CTT were more polymorphic in dinucleotides and trinucleotides, respectively. Genetic mapping integrated 160 loci into our interspecific BC1 linkage map, 5 of which associated with QTLs related to cotton fiber quality. The technique discussed in the present study enables us to detect polymorphism of monomorphic SSRs, and increase the utilization efficiency of the existing SSR primers.

Seventeen simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers were used to assess the genetic diversity and population structure among traditional Greek and Cypriot melon cultigens (Cucumis melo L.). All SSR markers were polymorphic with a total number of 81 alleles, whereas all cultigens could be distinguished with at least one SSR, except cultigens 43 and 41. Reference accessions showed larger genetic variability with an average of four alleles per locus and 0.65 gene of diversity compared with an average of 2.47 alleles per locus and 0.30 of gene diversity for the Greek/Cypriot cultigens. Observed heterozygosity was very low, indicating a lack of outcrossing, at least in recent times. Unrooted neighbor-joining tree analysis and population structure analysis clustered the cultigens and the reference genotypes into five groups. All cultigens could be distinguished; the Cypriot cultigens were more closely related to the inodorus ‘Piel de Sapo’, whereas the Greek cultigens were located in an intermediate position between the inodorus ‘Piel de Sapo’ and the cantalupensis ‘Védrantais’. The cultigen ‘Kokkini’ was the most divergent among the Greek and Cypriot cultigens. This association between geographic origin and genetic similarity among Greek and Cypriot cultigens indicates geographic isolation. Most of the cultivars from the same cultivar group (i.e., inodorus, cantalupensis) clustered together, but some exceptions were found, suggesting that former inodorus landraces would have been transformed to cantalupensis as a result of intercrossing and further selection by farmers. Results of population structure analysis support mixing between cantalupensis and inodorus. ‘Agiou Basileiou’, an inodorus cultigen, was assigned to the subpopulation IV/II of which II is a pure cantalupensis subpopulation. Greek and Cypriot melon cultigens were developed from a broader germplasm base than western Mediterranean cultivars and exhibited useful for melon breeding programs genetic variability.

Exploitation of the full potential of any hybrid requires the possessing of genetically high-purity seeds. In order to avoid reduction in yield caused by using low purity seeds, development of a simple, rapid, and accurate method for hybrid purity assessment is of great essence and significance. For the identification of true hybrids, SSR markers provides authentic information that will help to the further progress of any research programme. In this study, total of 40 wheat hybrids and 14 parental lines were taken for the hybrid purity analysis with 20 SSR markers. These markers were used to find out the codominant loci in the hybrid and single dominant loci in parents. Out of 20 SSR markers, only 8 markers viz., Xwmc617, Xwmc457, Xwmc48, Xgwm153, Xbarc61, Xgwm273, Xbarc268 and Xgwm274 showed the polymorphic dominant loci in the parents and co-dominant loci midway between these parents. Therefore these SSR markers were used to confirm the forty hybrids. The range of allele size produced by SSR marker on the parental lines were 120 bp to 300 bp. The highest allel size (300 bp) was produced by marker Xbarc 268 whereas, the minimum allel size (120 bp) was produced by marker Xgwm 273. All the fourty hybrids showed similar banding pattern as parental lines, this proved the purity of hybrids in all these cross combinations. The confirmation of hybrid purity indicated that a single polymorphic marker was sufficient for detection of contaminations of these hybrids from their parents.

A total of 96 indigenous Brassica rapa accessions were collected from different locations of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. Simple Sequence Repeats (SSR) markers were used to identify the most diverse genotypes among the collected lots. Twenty six (26) different SSR primers were used for (genetic) variability among collected genotypes. These primers were selected from literature based on their previous results. These primers produced 135 scorable bands of which 75 were polymorphic, with an average of 55.5% polymorphic loci, and reflected the broader genetic background of the collected genotypes. An average 2.88 polymorphic bands with an average PIC value of 0.49 was recorded. Unweighted Pair Group Method with Arithmetic Mean (UPGMA) divided all genotypes into three main groups. Group one contained three clusters, while group two and three had four and two clusters each. Based on the UPGMA dendrogram, genotypes collected from Kohat, Bannu, Swat and Haripur showed considerable amount of variation. From the present study, it is concluded that SSR markers can be proved as the best tool for the genetic variability of other local and exotic B. rapa genotypes.

Abstract Sanqi round spot, which is caused by Mycocentrospora acerina, is a destructive disease limits the production of Panax notoginseng in Yunnan province of China. However, the disease has not been studied comprehensively. In the current study, we identify M. acerina polymorphic microsatellite markers using CERVUS 3.0 and compare the genetic diversity of its isolates from P. notoginseng round spot using Simple Sequence Repeat (SSR) markers and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Thirty-two SSR markers with good polymorphism were developed using MISA and CERVUS 3.0. The genetic diversity of 187 M. acerina isolates were evaluated using 14 representative SSR primers, and the polymorphic information content values of 14 sites ranged from 0.813 to 0.946, with a total of 264 alleles detected at 14 microsatellite loci. The average expected heterozygosity was 0.8967. The genetic diversity of M. acerina in Yunnan province does not reflect geographic specificity.
