The potentiality of rice microsatellite markers in assessment of cross-species transferability and genetic diversity of rice and its wild relatives.

ABSTRACT: The main aim of this study is to assess the potentiality of SSR markers for the identification of the cross-species transferability frequency in a large set of the diverse genome types of wild relative rice along with cultivated rice. Here, we used 18 different rice genotypes representing nine different genome types with 70 SSR markers to investigate the potentiality of cross-species transferability rate. The overall cross-species transferability of SSR markers across the 18 rice genotypes ranged from 38.9% (RM280 and RM447) to 100% (RM490, RM318, RM279, RM18877 and RM20033, RM19303) with an average of 76.58%. Also, cross-species transferability across chromosome ranged from 54.4% (chromosome 4) to 86.5% (chromosome 2) with an average of 74.35%. The polymorphism information content of the markers varied from 0.198 (RM263) to 0.868 (RM510) with a mean of 0.549?±?0.153, showing high discriminatory power. The highest rate of cross-transferability was observed in O. rufipogon (97%), The highest rate of cross-species transferability was in O. rufipogon (97.00%), followed by O. glaberrima (94.20%), O. nivara (92.80%), Swarna (92.80%), O. longistaminata (91.40%), O. eichingeri (90%), O. barthii (88.50%), O. alta (82.80%), O. australiensis (77.10%), O. grandiglumis (74.20%), O. officinalis (74.20%), Zizania latifolia (70.00%), O. latifolia (68.50%), O. brachyantha (62.80%), Leersia perrieri (57.10%) and O. ridleyi (41.40%) with least in O. coarctata (28.50%). A total of 341 alleles from 70 loci were detected with the number of alleles per locus ranged from 2 to 12. Based on dendrogram analysis, the AA genome groups was separated as distinct group from the rest of the genome types. Similarly, principal coordinate analysis and structure analysis clearly separated the AA genome type from the rest of the genome types. Through the analysis of molecular variance, more variance (51%) was observed among the individual, whereas less (14%) was observed among the population. Thus, our findings may offer a valuable resource for studying the genetic diversity and relationship to facilitate the understanding of the complex mechanism of the origin and evolutionary processes of different Oryza species and wild relative rice.

Project description:BackgroundSafflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.), an Asteraceae member, yields high quality edible oil rich in unsaturated fatty acids and is resilient to dry conditions. The crop holds tremendous potential for improvement through concerted molecular breeding programs due to the availability of significant genetic and phenotypic diversity. Genomic resources that could facilitate such breeding programs remain largely underdeveloped in the crop. The present study was initiated to develop a large set of novel microsatellite markers for safflower using next generation sequencing.Principal findingsLow throughput genome sequencing of safflower was performed using Illumina paired end technology providing ~3.5X coverage of the genome. Analysis of sequencing data allowed identification of 23,067 regions harboring perfect microsatellite loci. The safflower genome was found to be rich in dinucleotide repeats followed by tri-, tetra-, penta- and hexa-nucleotides. Primer pairs were designed for 5,716 novel microsatellite sequences with repeat length ≥ 20 bases and optimal flanking regions. A subset of 325 microsatellite loci was tested for amplification, of which 294 loci produced robust amplification. The validated primers were used for assessment of 23 safflower accessions belonging to diverse agro-climatic zones of the world leading to identification of 93 polymorphic primers (31.6%). The numbers of observed alleles at each locus ranged from two to four and mean polymorphism information content was found to be 0.3075. The polymorphic primers were tested for cross-species transferability on nine wild relatives of cultivated safflower. All primers except one showed amplification in at least two wild species while 25 primers amplified across all the nine species. The UPGMA dendrogram clustered C. tinctorius accessions and wild species separately into two major groups. The proposed progenitor species of safflower, C. oxyacantha and C. palaestinus were genetically closer to cultivated safflower and formed a distinct cluster. The cluster analysis also distinguished diploid and tetraploid wild species of safflower.ConclusionNext generation sequencing of safflower genome generated a large set of microsatellite markers. The novel markers developed in this study will add to the existing repertoire of markers and can be used for diversity analysis, synteny studies, construction of linkage maps and marker-assisted selection.

Project description:BackgroundAdoption of genomics based breeding has emerged as a promising approach for achieving comprehensive crop improvement. Such an approach is more relevant in the case of perennial species like mulberry. However, unavailability of genomic resources of co-dominant marker systems has been the major constraint for adopting molecular breeding to achieve genetic enhancement of Mulberry. The goal of this study was to develop and characterize a large number of locus specific genic and genomic SSR markers which can be effectively used for molecular characterization of mulberry species/genotypes.ResultWe analyzed a total of 3485 DNA sequences including genomic and expressed sequences (ESTs) of mulberry (Morus alba L.) genome. We identified 358 sequences to develop appropriate microsatellite primer pairs representing 222 genomic and 136 EST regions. Primers amplifying locus specific regions of Dudia white (a genotype of Morus alba L), were identified and 137 genomic and 51 genic SSR markers were standardized. A two pronged strategy was adopted to assess the applicability of these SSR markers using mulberry species and genotypes along with a few closely related species belonging to the family Moraceae viz., Ficus, Fig and Jackfruit. While 100% of these markers amplified specific loci on the mulberry genome, 79% were transferable to other related species indicating the robustness of these markers and the potential they hold in analyzing the molecular and genetic diversity among mulberry germplasm as well as other related species. The inherent ability of these markers in detecting heterozygosity combined with a high average polymorphic information content (PIC) of 0.559 ranging between 0.076 and 0.943 clearly demonstrates their potential as genomic resources in diversity analysis. The dissimilarity coefficient determined based on Neighbor joining method, revealed that the markers were successful in segregating the mulberry species, genotypes and other related species into distinct clusters.ConclusionWe report a total of 188 genomic and genic SSR markers in Morus alba L. A large proportion of these markers (164) were polymorphic both among mulberry species and genotypes. A substantial number of these markers (149) were also transferable to other related species like Ficus, Fig and Jackfruit. The extent of polymorphism revealed and the ability to detect heterozygosity among the cross pollinated mulberry species and genotypes render these markers an invaluable genomic resource that can be utilized in assessing molecular diversity as well as in QTL mapping and subsequently mulberry crop improvement through MAS.
