Single Marker

Soybean seed protein content (SPC) has been decreasing throughout last decades and DNA marker association has shown its usefulness to improve this trait even in soybean breeding programs that focus primarily on soybean yield and seed oil content (SOC). Aiming to elucidate the association of two SNP markers (ss715630650 and ss715636852) to the SPC, a soybean population of 264 F5-derived recombinant inbred lines (RILs) from a bi-parental cross was tested in four environments. Through the single-marker analysis, the additive effect () and the portion of SPC variation due to the SNPs () for single and multi-environment data were assessed, and transgressive RILs for SPC were observed. The estimates revealed the association of both markers to SPC in most of environments. The marker ss715636852 was more frequently associated to SPC, including multi-environment data, and contributed up to  = 1.30% for overall SPC, whereas ss715630650 had significant association just in two locations, with contributions of  = 0.76% and  = 0.74% to overall SPC in Vic1 and Cap1, respectively. The RIL 84-13 was classified as an elite genotype due to its favorable alleles and high SPC means, which reached 53.78% in Cap1, and 46.33% in MET analysis. Thus, these results confirm the usefulness of the SNP marker ss715636852 in a soybean breeding program for SPC.

Two Populations

Seed protein content is one of the most important traits controlled by quantitative trait loci (QTLs) in soybean. In this study, a Glycine soja accession (ZYD2738) was crossed with two elite cultivars Jidou 12 and Jidou 9 separately and subsequently the resulting F2:3 populations were used to identify QTLs associated with seed protein content. Protein contents in either population appeared to have a normal distribution with transgressive segregation. A total of five QTLs associated with high protein content were identified and mapped to chromosomes 2, 6, 13, 18 and 20, respectively. Of these QTLs, three (qPRO_2_1, qPRO_13_1 and qPRO_20_1) were identified in the same region in both the populations, whereas the other two (qPRO_6_1 and qPRO_18_1) were mapped in two different regions. qPRO_2_1 appears to be a novel protein QTL. qPRO_6_1, qPRO_18_1 and qPRO_20_1 had additive effects on seed protein content, while qPRO_13_1 had an over-dominant effect on seed protein content. These QTLs and their linked markers could serve as effective tools for marker-assisted selection to increase seed protein content.

Weed Removal

ABSTRACT: Brown chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is one of the two chickpea types grown in Pakistan and other countries. The critical period for weed removal in a rainfed chickpea system is an important consideration in devising weed management strategies. Field experiments were conducted in the winter season of 2011 and 2012 to determine the extent of yield loss with different periods of weed crop competition. Seven weed crop competition periods (0, 45, 60, 75, 90, 105 and 160 days after sowing - DAS) were used to identify the critical period for weed removal in rainfed chickpea. Experimental plots were naturally infested with Euphorbia dracunculoides and Astragalus sp. in both years. Individual, composite density and dry weights of E. dracunculoides and Astragalussp. increased significantly with an increase in the competition period. However, yield and yield-contributing traits of chickpea significantly decreased with an increase in the competition period. Chickpea seed yield loss was 11-53% in different weed crop competition periods. Euphorbia dracunculoides and Astragalus sp. removed 39.9 and 36.9 kg ha-1 of N, 9.61 and 7.27 kg ha-1 of P and 38.3 and 36.9 kg ha-1 of K, respectively. Season long weed competition (160 days after sowing) resulted in 19.5% seed protein content compared with 24.5% seed protein content in weed-free chickpea. A Logistic equation was fitted to yield data in response to increasing periods of weed crop competition. The critical timing of weed removal at 5 and 10% acceptable yield losses were 26 and 39 DAS, respectively. The observed critical period suggests that in rainfed chickpea, a carefully timed weed removal could prevent grain yield losses.
