Abstract The stability of cytoplasmic male sterility expression in several genetic backgrounds was investigated in sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.). Nine genetically heterogenous plants from old cultivars were crossed with a cytoplasmic male-sterile line to obtain 266 F1 plants. Based on marker analysis using a multiallelic DNA marker linked to restorer-of-fertility 1 (Rf1), we divided the F1 plants into 15 genotypes. We evaluated the phenotypes of the F1 plants under two environmental conditions: greenhouse rooms with or without daytime heating during the flowering season. Three phenotypic groups appeared: those consistently expressing male sterility (MS), those consistently having restored pollen fertility, and those expressing MS in a thermo-sensitive manner. All plants in the consistently male-sterile group inherited a specific Rf1 marker type named p4. We tested the potential for thermo-induced male-sterile plants to serve as seed parents for hybrid seed production, and three genotypes were selected. Open pollination by a pollen parental line with a dominant trait of red-pigmented hypocotyls and leaf veins resulted in seed setting on thermo-induced male-sterile plants, indicating that their female organs were functional. More than 99.9% of the progeny expressed the red pigmentation trait; hence, highly pure hybrids were obtained. We determined the nucleotide sequences of Rf1 from the three genotypes: one had a novel allele and two had known alleles, of which one was reported to have been selected previously as a nonrestoring allele at a single US breeding station but not at other stations in the US, or in Europe or Japan, suggesting environmental sensitivity.

Abstract Background Cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) is very important in hybrid breeding. The restorer-of-fertility (Rf) nuclear genes rescue the sterile phenotype. Most of the Rf genes encode pentatricopeptide repeat (PPR) proteins. Results We investigated the restorer-of-fertility-like (RFL) gene family in Brassica napus. A total of 53 BnRFL genes were identified. While most of the BnRFL genes were distributed on 10 of the 19 chromosomes, gene clusters were identified on chromosomes A9 and C8. The number of PPR motifs in the BnRFL proteins varied from 2 to 19, and the majority of BnRFL proteins harbored more than 10 PPR motifs. An interaction network analysis was performed to predict the interacting partners of RFL proteins. Tissue-specific expression and RNA-seq analyses between the restorer line KC01 and the sterile line Shaan2A indicated that BnRFL1, BnRFL5, BnRFL6, BnRFL8, BnRFL11, BnRFL13 and BnRFL42 located in gene clusters on chromosomes A9 and C8 were highly expressed in KC01. Conclusions In the present study, identification and gene expression analysis of RFL gene family in the CMS system were conducted, and seven BnRFL genes were identified as candidates for the restorer genes in Shaan2A CMS. Taken together, this method might provide new insight into the study of Rf genes in other CMS systems.

Abstract Sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) is an important raw material for the sugar industry, and its output is second only to sugar cane. Cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) is a phenomenon of pollen abortion that has important implications in sugar beet hybrid breeding. Male plant sterility is usually considered to be associated with mitochondrial dysfunction. Although mitochondrial genes associated with male sterility have been well explored, the different mitochondrial proteomics of CMS in sugar beet are still poorly understood. In this study, differentially expressed mitochondrial proteomic analysis was performed on the flower buds of the male sterile line (DY5-CMS), its maintainer line (DY5-O) and a fertility restorer line (CL6), using an isobaric tag for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) technology. A total of 2260 proteins were identified by mass spectrometry, of which 538 were differentially expressed proteins. Most of them were involved in protein metabolism, carbohydrate and energy metabolism, and binding. More specifically, some cysteine and methionine metabolism proteins (A0A0J8BGE0, A0A0J8CZM6, A0A0J8D7W0 and A0A0J8BCR7) may play important roles during the formation of CMS. This study provided an in–depth understanding of the CMS molecular mechanism at the protein level in sugar beet.
