As a prelude to discovery of genes involved in floral dimorphism and incompatibility, a genetic map of distylous Turnera was constructed along with a fine-scale map of the S-locus region. The genetic map consists of 79 PCR-based molecular markers (48 AFLP, 18 RAPD, 9 ISSR, 4 RAMP), 5 isozyme loci, one additional gene, and the S-locus, spanning a total distance of 683.3 cM. The 86 markers are distributed in 5 linkage groups, corresponding to the haploid chromosome number. Molecular markers tightly linked or co-segregating with the S-locus in an initial mapping population of 94 individuals were used to assay an additional 642 progeny to construct a map of the S-locus region. The fine-scale map consists of 2 markers (IS864a and RP45E9) flanking the S-locus at distances of 0.41 and 0.54 cM, respectively, and 3 additional markers (OPK14c, RP45G18, and RP81E18) co-segregating with the S-locus in the total mapping population of 736 individuals. The genetic map constructed will serve as a framework for localization of genes outside the S-locus affecting distyly, while molecular markers of the fine-scale map will be used to initiate chromosome walking to find the genes residing at the S-locus.

A map of melon (Cucumis melo L.) with 411 markers (234 RFLPs, 94 AFLPs, 47 RAPDs, 29 SSRs, five inter-SSRs, and two isozymes) and one morphological trait (carpel number) was constructed using the F2 progeny of a cross between the Korean accession PI161375 and the Spanish melon type 'Pinyonet Piel de Sapo'. RFLPs were obtained using 212 probes from different genomic and cDNA melon libraries, including 16 Arabidopsis ESTs, 13 Cucumis known genes, and three resistant gene homologues. Most loci (391) mapped to 12 major linkage groups, spanning a total genetic distance of 1197 cM, with an average map interval of 3 cM/marker. The remaining 21 loci (six RAPDs and 15 AFLPs) were not linked. A majority (66%) of the markers were codominant (RFLPs, SSRs, and isozymes), making them easily transferable to other melon crosses. Such markers can be used as a reference, to merge other melon and cucumber maps already constructed. Indeed, some of them (23 SSRs, 14 RFLPs, one isozyme, and one morphological trait) could act as anchor points with other published cucurbit maps.Key words: Cucumis melo, genetic map, molecular markers, RFLPs, SSRs.

Using a population of 105 interspecific F2 hybrids derived from a cross between Agropyron mongolicum Keng and Agropyron cristatum (L.) Gaertn. ‘Fairway’ as a mapping population, a genetic linkage map of crested wheatgrass was constructed based on AFLP and RAPD molecular markers. A total of 175 markers, including 152 AFLP and 23 RAPD markers, were ordered in seven linkage groups. The map distance was 416 cM, with a mean distance of 2.47 cM between markers. The number of markers ranged from 13 to 46 in each linkage group and the length of groups ranged from 18 to 104 cM. The research found that 30 out of 175 molecular markers showed segregation distortion, accounting for 17% of all markers. This is the first genetic linkage map of crested wheatgrass. This map will facilitate gene localization, cloning, and molecular marker-assisted selection in the future.

Abstract A dense linkage map was constructed for the silkworm, Bombyx mori, containing 1018 genetic markers on all 27 autosomes and the Z chromosome. Most of the markers, covering ∼2000 cM, were randomly amplified polymorphic DNAs amplified with primer-pairs in combinations of 140 commercially available decanucleotides. In addition, eight known genes and five visible mutations were mapped. Bombyx homologues of engrailed and invected genes were found to be closely linked, as in Drosophila melanogaster. The average interval between markers was ∼2 cM, equal to ∼500 kb. The correspondence of seven linkage groups to counterparts of the conventional linkage map was determined. This map is the first linkage map in insects having a large number of chromosomes (n = 28) that covers all chromosomes without any gaps.

Abstract Zinc (Zn) deficiency is a widespread problem in reducing the yield and quality of crop plants worldwide. It is important to utilize molecular markers linked to Zn efficiency to develop high Zn efficient cultivars in pepper (Capsicum annuum L.). We constructed a genetic map using an F2 populations derived from C. annuum L. (Alata 21A) X C. frutescens L. (PI 281420) cross. The QTLs for Zn efficiency were mapped using F2:3 population. A genetic map with 929,6 cM in length and 12 linkage groups were obtained using 62 markers (31 SRAP, 19 SSR and 11 RAPD). The 41 linked QTLs related with nine (9) Zn efficiency characters were mapped on linkage groups. Results suggest that selecting plants for tolerance to Zn deficiency are expected to be rather responsive among segregating populations for breeding and developing Zn efficient genotypes in pepper. The molecular markers are expected to aid selection and expedite breeding peppers resistant to Zn deficiency in soils low for available Zn contents.

Segregating Population

AbstractThe main purposes of the study were i) to develop a first mapping population for bread wheat grown in Kazakhstan, ii) to construct its genetic map for further identification of genes associated with important agronomic traits.To the best of our knowledge this is the first segregating population and genetic map developed for Kazakh bread wheat. The work is an example of how plant breeding programs in Kazakhstan have started successfully deploying next generation plant breeding methods.The KASP (Compatative Allele Specific PCR) technology of LGC Group and SNP DNA-markers have been exploited to genotype and build a genetic map of the segregating population. The total length of the map was 1376 cM. A total 157 out of initial 178 SNP markers used formed 26 linkage groups leaving 1 duplicated and 20 unassigned markers. The threshold distance between markers was set ≤ 30 cM. Therefore, two linkage groups were obtained for chromosomes such as 2A, 2B, 2D, 3A, 5A, 6B and 7A. Despite one duplicated and 20 unassigned markers, the 157 KASP SNP markers that were mapped spanned A, B and D genomes of wheat. Kosambi Mapping function was employed to calculate recombination units between makers. RILs were developed through SSD method up to F4 generation. Almost 97% of identified alleles were useful in evaluating the population’s genetic diversity; the remaining 3% showed no outcome. As a result, 77 DNA markers were mapped for A, 74 for B and 27 for D genomes. The mapping population will be genotyped using high marker density array planform such as Illumina iSelect to obtain a genetic map with a relatively high coverage. Then, the population and high-resolution genetic map will be used to identify genes influencing wheat adaptation in Kazakhstan.

Germination Traits

AbstractGenetic mapping of seed germination traits has been performed with many plant species. In tobacco, however, investigations are rare. In the present study, a bi-parental mapping population consisting of 118 doubled haploid lines and derived from a cross between ‘Beinhart-1000’ and ‘Hicks’ was investigated. Four germination-related traits, total germination (TG), normal germination (NG), time to reach 50% of total germination (T50), and the area under the curve after 200 h of germination (AUC) were considered by examining seeds either untreated or after a moderate controlled deterioration (CD). Quantitative trait loci were found for all traits distributed on 11 out of the 24 linkage groups. It was demonstrated that, as in many other species, germination-related traits are very complex and under polygenic control.

Integrated Genetic Map

A molecular-marker linkage map has been constructed for perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) using a one-way pseudo-testcross population based on the mating of a multiple heterozygous individual with a doubled haploid genotype. RFLP, AFLP, isoenzyme, and EST data from four collaborating laboratories within the International Lolium Genome Initiative were combined to produce an integrated genetic map containing 240 loci covering 811 cM on seven linkage groups. The map contained 124 codominant markers, of which 109 were heterologous anchor RFLP probes from wheat, barley, oat, and rice, allowing comparative relationships between perennial ryegrass and other Poaceae species to be inferred. The genetic maps of perennial ryegrass and the Triticeae cereals are highly conserved in terms of synteny and colinearity. This observation was supported by the general agreement of the syntenic relationships between perennial ryegrass, oat, and rice and those between the Triticeae and these species. A lower level of synteny and colinearity was observed between perennial ryegrass and oat compared with the Triticeae, despite the closer taxonomic affinity between these species. It is proposed that the linkage groups of perennial ryegrass be numbered in accordance with these syntenic relationships, to correspond to the homoeologous groups of the Triticeae cereals.Key words: Lolium perenne, genetic linkage map, RFLP, AFLP, conserved synteny.

1. Many of the Ustilaginales, or smut fungi, appear to have the qualities necessary for the application of modern techniques of microbial genetics.Ustilago maydisis considered the most suitable species.2. Investigations of the mating system confirm reports that the production of diploid brandspores in the host is controlled by alleles at two loci.3. Genetic markers were obtained by inducing mutations in a wild-type strain with ultra-violet light. Of 100 biochemical mutants which were isolated, the growth requirements of 94 were identified. Thirty of these were used in genetic tests.4. The compact growth of colonies on artificial media allowed new techniques to be developed by means of which large samples of progeny could be isolated and identified easily. The analysis of brandspore colonies consisting of the products of single meiotic divisions is the quickest method for detecting linkage, but its accurate measurement appears to be achieved by examining the individual members of tetrads.5. Linkage was detected relatively rarely, but eight markers, including theamating-type locus, were assigned to one or other of two linkage groups. Although recombination values were not always determined accurately owing to irregular basidiospore germination, the auxotrophic markers in each group could be mapped in a linear order. Since no indication of other linkage groups was obtained, the genetic evidence is so far consistent with cytological reports that the basic haploid chromosome number is two in the smut fungi.6. Three linked markers were used to investigate chromatid interference by tetrad analysis. None was detected in a total of eighteen double exchanges.
