Efficient Breeding

An understanding of the level of genetic diversity is a prerequisite for designing efficient breeding programs. Fifty-one cultivars of four cotton species (Gossypium hirsutum, G. barbadense, G. herbaceum and G. arboreum) representing core collections at four major cotton research stations with a wide range of eco-geographical regions in India were examined for the level of genetic diversity, distinct subpopulations and the level of linkage disequilibrium (LD) using 1100 amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) markers with 16 primer pairs combinations. The AFLP markers enabled a reliable assessment of inter- and intra-specific genetic variability with a heterogeneous genetic structure. Higher genetic diversity was noticed in G. herbaceum, followed by G. arboreum. The genetic diversity in tetraploid cotton species was found to be less than that in the diploid species. The genotypes VAGAD, RAHS14, IPS187, 221 557, Jayhellar of G. herbaceum and 551, DLSA17, 221 566 of G. arboreum were identified as the most diverse parents, useful for quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis in diploid cotton. Similarly, LRA 5166, AS3 and MCU5 of G. hirsutum and B1, B3, Suvin of G. barbadense were most diverse to develop mapping populations for fibre quality. The internal transcribed spacer sequences were sufficient to resolve different species and subspecies of diploid cotton. Low level of genome-wide LD was detected in the entire collection (r2 = 0.07) as well as within the four species (r2 = 0.11–0.15). A strong agreement was noticed between the clusters constructed on the basis of morphological and genotyping data.

Final Length

Cotton fibres, as single cells arising from the seed coat, can be classified as lint and fuzz according to their final length. Gossypium arboreum is a cultivated diploid cotton species and a potential donor of the A subgenome of the more widely grown tetraploid cottons. In this study, we performed genetic studies on one lintless and seven fuzzless G. arboreum accessions. Through association and genetic linkage analyses, a recessive locus on Chr06 containing GaHD-1 was found to be the likely gene underlying the lintless trait. GaHD-1 carried a mutation at a splicing acceptor site that resulted in alternative splicing and a deletion of 247 amino acid from the protein. The regions containing GaGIR1 and GaMYB25-like were found to be associated with fuzz development in G. arboreum, with the former being the major contributor. Comparative transcriptome analyses using 0-5 days post-anthesis (dpa) ovules from lintless, fuzzless, and normal fuzzy seed G. arboreum accessions revealed gene modules and hub genes potentially important for lint and fuzz initiation and development. Three significant modules and 26 hub genes associated with lint fibre initiation were detected by weighted gene co-expression network analysis. Similar analyses identified three vital modules and 10 hub genes to be associated with fuzz development. The findings in this study contribute to understanding the complex molecular mechanism(s) regulating fibre initiation and development and indicate that G. arboreum may have fibre developmental pathways different from tetraploid cotton. It also provides candidate genes for further investigation into modifying fibre development in G. arboreum.

Gossypium Herbaceum

Wild species of Gossypium ssp. are an important source of traits for improving commercial cotton cultivars. Previous reports show that Gossypium herbaceum L. and Gossypium nelsonii Fryx. have better disease resistance characteristics than commercial cotton varieties. However, chromosome ploidy and biological isolation make it difficult to hybridize diploid species with the tetraploid Gossypium hirsutum L. We developed a new allotetraploid cotton genotype (A1A1G3G3) using a process of distant hybridization within wild cotton species to create new germplasms. First of all, G. herbaceum and G. nelsonii were used for interspecific hybridization to obtain F1 generation. Afterwards, apical meristems of the F1 diploid cotton plants were treated with colchicine to induce chromosome doubling. The new interspecific F1 hybrid and S1 cotton plants originated from chromosome duplication, were tested via morphological and molecular markers and confirmed their tetraploidy through flowrometric and cytological identification. The S1 tetraploid cotton plants was crossed with a TM-1 line and fertile hybrid offspring were obtained. These S2 offsprings were tested for resistance to Verticillium wilt and demonstrated adequate tolerance to this fungi. The results shows that the new S1 cotton line could be used as parental material for hybridization with G. hirsutum to produce pathogen-resistant cotton hybrids. This new S1 allotetraploid genotype will contributes to the enrichment of Gossypium germplasm resources and is expected to be valuable in polyploidy evolutionary studies.

Abstract Background One of the main goals for the XXI century breeding is the development of crop cultivars that can maintain current yields under unfavorable environments. Landraces that have been grown under varied local conditions include genetic diversity that will be essential to achieve this objective. The Center of Plant Genetic Resources of the Spanish Institute for Agriculture Research (CRF-INIA) holds a wide collection of wheat landraces. These accessions, locally adapted to a really wide diversity of eco-climatic conditions, represent a highly valuable material for breeding. However, their efficient use requires an exhaustive genetic characterization. The overall aim of this study was to assess the diversity and population structure of a selected set of 380 Spanish landraces and 52 reference varieties of bread and durum wheat by high-throughput genotyping. Results DArTseq GBS approach generated 10K SNPs and 40K DArT high-quality markers that were mapped against the currently available bread wheat reference genome. The markers with known location were distributed in all the chromosomes, having a relatively well-balanced genome-wide coverage. The genetic analysis showed that Spanish wheat landraces are clustered in different groups, thus representing genetic pools capable to provide different allelic variation. The subspecies had a major impact on the population structure of durum wheat landraces, identifying three different clusters that corresponded to subsps. durum, turgidum and dicoccon. The population structure of bread wheat landraces was more biased by geographic origin. Conclusions The results showed a wider genetic diversity in landraces when compared to a reference set that included commercial varieties, and a higher divergence between landraces and the reference set in durum wheat than in bread wheat. Some genomic regions with patterns of variation that differ between landraces and reference varieties could be detected, pointing out loci under selection during crop improvement that could help to target breeding efforts. The results obtained from this work will be highly valuable for future GWAS analysis.

Abstract Background Cotton is not only a major textile fiber crop but also a vital oilseed, industrial, and forage crop. Oleosins are the structural proteins of oil bodies, influencing their size and the oil content in seeds. In addition, the degradation of oleosins is involved in the mobilization of lipid and oil bodies during seed germination. However, comprehensive identification and the systematic analysis of the Oleosin gene (OLEOs) family have not been conducted in cotton. Results An in-depth analysis has enabled us to identify 25 and 24 OLEOs in tetraploid cotton species G. hirsutum and G. barbadense, respectively, while 12 and 13 OLEOs were identified in diploid species G. arboreum and G. raimondii, respectively. The 74 OLEOs were further clustered into three lineages according to the phylogenetic tree. Synteny analysis revealed that most of the OLEOs were conserved and that WGD or segmental duplications might drive their expansion. The transmembrane helices in GhOLEO proteins were predicted, and three transmembrane models were summarized, in which two were newly proposed. A total of 24 candidate miRNAs targeting GhOLEOs were predicted. Three highly expressed oil-related OLEOs, GH_A07G0501 (SL), GH_D10G0941 (SH), and GH_D01G1686 (U), were cloned, and their subcellular localization and function were analyzed. Their overexpression in Arabidopsis increased seed oil content and decreased seed germination rates. Conclusion We identified OLEO gene family in four cotton species and performed comparative analyses of their relationships, conserved structure, synteny, and gene duplication. The subcellular localization and function of three highly expressed oil-related OLEOs were detected. These results lay the foundation for further functional characterization of OLEOs and improving seed oil content.
