Genetics and mapping of seed coat impermeability in soybean using inter-specific populations.

ABSTRACT: Seed coat impermeability (SCI) in soybean is associated with seed viability under storage and quality of processed products. Understanding genetics and identification of linked molecular markers would facilitate need-based utilization of seed coat impermeability. Two impermeable wild type (G. soja Sieb. and Zucc.) accessions viz. PI 424079 and PI 136620 were crossed with a permeable cultivated (G. max) variety JS335 to generate the mapping populations. Genetic analysis of the F_1:2 and F_2:3 seeds of the crosses indicated that SCI is controlled by a single gene/major QTL, and impermeability is dominant over permeability. Presence of seeds with intermediate permeability indicated role of some minor genes/QTLs. A set of 204 inter-specific recombinant inbred line (RILs) (F₇) was used to map SCI with 207 SSR markers. Phenotyping through rapid imbibition approach (seed imbibition for 6 h), seven QTLs were mapped on chromosomes (Chrs.) 2, 5, 12, 13 and 16 in the seeds stored for 1-3 years, while through slow imbibition method (seed imbibition for 7 days), five QTLs were mapped on Chrs. 2, 9, 10 and 20. Phenotypic variation explained (PVE) by the QTLs ranged from 5.96 to 39.67%. Two major and stable QTLs viz., qScI-h2-1 and qScI-h2-2 that mapped in tandem on Chr.2 jointly explained 43.09-62.92% of the variations in impermeability. Seven minor QTLs identified here were novel and two (qScI-h5, and qScI-h16) were consistent. It is the first report of mapping impermeability using two imbibition approaches together in 200 plus inter-specific RILs in soybean. The study will pave the way for developing genotypes with restricted permeability, enhanced seed viability, and improved seeds quality.

Identification and Validation of Loci Governing Seed Coat Color by Combining Association Mapping and Bulk Segregation Analysis in Soybean.

Project description:Soybean seed coat exists in a range of colors from yellow, green, brown, black, to bicolor. Classical genetic analysis suggested that soybean seed color was a moderately complex trait controlled by multi-loci. However, only a couple of loci could be detected using a single biparental segregating population. In this study, a combination of association mapping and bulk segregation analysis was employed to identify genes/loci governing this trait in soybean. A total of 14 loci, including nine novel and five previously reported ones, were identified using 176,065 coding SNPs selected from entire SNP dataset among 56 soybean accessions. Four of these loci were confirmed and further mapped using a biparental population developed from the cross between ZP95-5383 (yellow seed color) and NY279 (brown seed color), in which different seed coat colors were further dissected into simple trait pairs (green/yellow, green/black, green/brown, yellow/black, yellow/brown, and black/brown) by continuously developing residual heterozygous lines. By genotyping entire F2 population using flanking markers located in fine-mapping regions, the genetic basis of seed coat color was fully dissected and these four loci could explain all variations of seed colors in this population. These findings will be useful for map-based cloning of genes as well as marker-assisted breeding in soybean. This work also provides an alternative strategy for systematically isolating genes controlling relative complex trait by association analysis followed by biparental mapping.

A major gene for tolerance to cold-induced seed coat discoloration relieves viral seed mottling in soybean.

Project description:In yellow soybeans, inhibition of seed coat pigmentation by RNA silencing of CHS genes is suppressed by low temperature and a viral suppressor, resulting in 'cold-induced seed coat discoloration' and 'seed mottling', respectively. Differences exist in the degree of cold-induced seed coat discoloration among Japanese yellow soybean cultivars; for example, Toyomusume is sensitive, Toyohomare has some tolerance, and Toyoharuka is highly tolerant. In this study, we compared the degree of seed mottling severity due to soybean mosaic virus (SMV) among these three soybean cultivars. Obvious differences were found, with the order of severity as follows: Toyohomare > Toyomusume > Toyoharuka. RNA gel blot analysis indicated that CHS transcript abundance in the seed coat, which was increased by SMV infection, was responsible for the severity of seed mottling. Quantitative reverse transcription PCR analysis revealed why mottling was most severe in SMV-infected Toyohomare: the SMV titer in its seed coat was higher than in the other two infected cultivars. We further suggest that a major gene (Ic) for tolerance to cold-induced seed coat discoloration can relieve the severity of seed mottling in SMV-infected Toyoharuka.

A QTL associated with high seed coat cracking rate of a leading Japanese soybean variety.

Project description:Seed coat cracking in soybeans [Glycine max (L). Merr.] leads to commercial and agronomic losses. The Japanese elite soybean cultivar 'Fukuyutaka' is often used as a parent for breeding, but its high rate of seed coat cracking is an obstacle to its further use in breeding programs. To establish a DNA marker-assisted selection system for seed coat cracking, genetic factors related to high rates of seed coat cracking were surveyed, and a quantitative trait locus (QTL) with a stable effect on seed coat cracking in both years of a two-year replication experiment was detected on chromosome 20. Comparison of a set of near-isogenic lines (NILs) around this locus verified that the presence of the 'Fukuyutaka' allele significantly increased seed coat cracking in the kernel. The locus is located in a genomic region spanning 3.2 Mb. Marker-assisted selection for the locus will improve the selection efficiency of 'Fukuyutaka'-derived breeding populations.

Mapping Quantitative Trait Loci for Soybean Seedling Shoot and Root Architecture Traits in an Inter-Specific Genetic Population.

Project description:Wild soybean species (Glycine soja Siebold & Zucc.) comprise a unique resource to widen the genetic base of cultivated soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] for various agronomic traits. An inter-specific mapping population derived from a cross of cultivar Williams 82 and PI 483460B, a wild soybean accession, was utilized for genetic characterization of root architecture traits. The objectives of this study were to identify and characterize quantitative trait loci (QTL) for seedling shoot and root architecture traits, as well as to determine additive/epistatic interaction effects of identified QTLs. A total of 16,469 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) developed for the Illumina beadchip genotyping platform were used to construct a high resolution genetic linkage map. Among the 11 putative QTLs identified, two significant QTLs on chromosome 7 were determined to be associated with total root length (RL) and root surface area (RSA) with favorable alleles from the wild soybean parent. These seedling root traits, RL (BARC_020495_04641 ~ BARC_023101_03769) and RSA (SNP02285 ~ SNP18129_Magellan), could be potential targets for introgression into cultivated soybean background to improve both tap and lateral roots. The RL QTL region harbors four candidate genes with higher expression in root tissues: Phosphofructokinase (Glyma.07g126400), Snf7 protein (Glyma.07g127300), unknown functional gene (Glyma.07g127900), and Leucine Rich-Repeat protein (Glyma.07g127100). The novel alleles inherited from the wild soybean accession could be used as molecular markers to improve root system architecture and productivity in elite soybean lines.

Seed coat colour and structure are related to the seed dormancy and overwintering ability of crop-to-wild hybrid soybean.

Project description:The possible persistence of genetically modified (GM) crop-to-wild hybrid seeds in the soil seed bank is a major concern in risk assessment and is closely related to seed characteristics such as dormancy. In the present study, we generated F3 hybrids via crosses between GM soybean accessions and wild soybean and evaluated the dormancy, overwintering ability and inheritance of foreign genes in different-coloured hybrid seeds (yellow, green, brown and black). The results revealed that the 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase transgene may have no influence on crop wild hybrid seed dormancy and overwintering ability, and the dormancy of the hybrid seeds was closely related to seed coat colour. F3 hybrid seeds with light colours (yellow and green) were relatively nondormant, while seeds that were dark (brown and black) in colour were relatively dormant. Moreover, the hybrid seeds that were dark in colour had a much stronger overwintering ability than the lighter-coloured seeds, with 21.33 % of the black seeds and 33.33 % of the brown seeds remaining viable after 240 days of soil burial. In contrast, almost all the F3 yellow and green seeds were no longer viable during winter. Scanning electron microscopy revealed that the lighter-coloured seeds had a thin palisade layer and very few surface deposits, while the darker-coloured seeds had a thicker palisade layer and a large area of honeycomb-like surface deposits similar to those of wild soybean seeds. Thus, the physical dormancy and overwintering ability of the darker-coloured seeds may be related to the seed coat. Our results suggest that transgenes of GM soybean might disperse into wild populations and persist in seed banks.

A Single-Nucleotide Polymorphism in an Endo-1,4-?-Glucanase Gene Controls Seed Coat Permeability in Soybean.

Project description:Physical dormancy, a structural feature of the seed coat known as hard seededness, is an important characteristic for adaptation of plants against unstable and unpredictable environments. To dissect the molecular basis of qHS1, a quantitative trait locus for hard seededness in soybean (Glycine max (L) Merr.), we developed a near-isogenic line (NIL) of a permeable (soft-seeded) cultivar, Tachinagaha, containing a hard-seed allele from wild soybean (G. soja) introduced by successive backcrossings. The hard-seed allele made the seed coat of Tachinagaha more rigid by increasing the amount of ?-1,4-glucans in the outer layer of palisade cells of the seed coat on the dorsal side of seeds, known to be a point of entrance of water. Fine-mapping and subsequent expression and sequencing analyses revealed that qHS1 encodes an endo-1,4-?-glucanase. A single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) introduced an amino acid substitution in a substrate-binding cleft of the enzyme, possibly reducing or eliminating its affinity for substrates in permeable cultivars. Introduction of the genomic region of qHS1 from the impermeable (hard-seeded) NIL into the permeable cultivar Kariyutaka resulted in accumulation of ?-1,4-glucan in the outer layer of palisade cells and production of hard seeds. The SNP allele found in the NIL was further associated with the occurrence of hard seeds in soybean cultivars of various origins. The findings of this and previous studies may indicate that qHS1 is involved in the accumulation of ?-1,4-glucan derivatives such as xyloglucan and/or ?-(1,3)(1,4)-glucan that reinforce the impermeability of seed coats in soybean.

Identifying Wild Versus Cultivated Gene-Alleles Conferring Seed Coat Color and Days to Flowering in Soybean.

Project description:Annual wild soybean (G. soja) is the ancestor of the cultivated soybean (G. max). To reveal the genetic changes from soja to max, an improved wild soybean chromosome segment substitution line (CSSL) population, SojaCSSLP5, composed of 177 CSSLs with 182 SSR markers (SSR-map), was developed based on SojaCSSLP1 generated from NN1138-2(max)×N24852(soja). The SojaCSSLP5 was genotyped further through whole-genome resequencing, resulting in a physical map with 1366 SNPLDBs (SNP linkage-disequilibrium blocks), which are composed of more markers/segments, shorter marker length and more recombination breakpoints than the SSR-map and caused 721 new wild substituted segments. Using the SNPLDB-map, two loci co-segregating with seed-coat color (SCC) and six loci for days to flowering (DTF) with 88.02% phenotypic contribution were identified. Integrated with parental RNA-seq and DNA-resequencing, two SCC and six DTF candidate genes, including three previously cloned (G, E2 and GmPRR3B) and five newly detected ones, were predicted and verified at nucleotide mutant level, and then demonstrated with the consistency between gene-alleles and their phenotypes in SojaCSSLP5. In total, six of the eight genes were identified with the parental allele-pairs coincided to those in 303 germplasm accessions, then were further demonstrated by the consistency between gene-alleles and germplasm phenotypes. Accordingly, the CSSL population integrated with parental DNA and RNA sequencing data was demonstrated to be an efficient platform in identifying candidate wild vs. cultivated gene-alleles.

Structure of soybean seed coat peroxidase: a plant peroxidase with unusual stability and haem-apoprotein interactions.

Project description:Soybean seed coat peroxidase (SBP) is a peroxidase with extraordinary stability and catalytic properties. It belongs to the family of class III plant peroxidases that can oxidize a wide variety of organic and inorganic substrates using hydrogen peroxide. Because the plant enzyme is a heterogeneous glycoprotein, SBP was produced recombinant in Escherichia coli for the present crystallographic study. The three-dimensional structure of SBP shows a bound tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane molecule (TRIS). This TRIS molecule has hydrogen bonds to active site residues corresponding to the residues that interact with the small phenolic substrate ferulic acid in the horseradish peroxidase C (HRPC):ferulic acid complex. TRIS is positioned in what has been described as a secondary substrate-binding site in HRPC, and the structure of the SBP:TRIS complex indicates that this secondary substrate-binding site could be of functional importance. SBP has one of the most solvent accessible delta-meso haem edge (the site of electron transfer from reducing substrates to the enzymatic intermediates compound I and II) so far described for a plant peroxidase and structural alignment suggests that the volume of Ile74 is a factor that influences the solvent accessibility of this important site. A contact between haem C8 vinyl and the sulphur atom of Met37 is observed in the SBP structure. This interaction might affect the stability of the haem group by stabilisation/delocalisation of the porphyrin pi-cation of compound I.
