The critical evolutionary step during domestication of major cereals was elimination of seed shattering because the easy-to-shatter trait in wild relatives results in a severe reduction in yield. In this study, we analyzed the QTLs associated with shattering employing a high-density genetic map in doubled haploid (DH) population of rice (Oryza sativa L.). A genetic linkage map was generated with 217 microsatellite markers spanning 2082.4 cM and covering 12 rice chromosomes with an average interval of 9.6 cM between markers based on 120 DHLs derived from a cross between Cheongcheong indica type cultivar and Nagdong japonica type cultivar. In the QTL analysis, five QTLs pertaining to the breaking tensile strength (BTS) were detected in 2013 and 2015. Two regions of the QTLs related to BTS on chromosome 1 and chromosome 6 were detected. Several important genes are distributed in 1 Mbp region of the QTL on chromosome 6 and they are related to the formation of abscission layer. We decide to name this QTL qSh6 and the candidate genes in the qSh6 region can be employed usefully in further research for cloning.
主要谷物驯化过程中的关键进化步骤是消除种子脱落,因为野生近缘种中易于脱落的特性会导致产量严重下降。在本研究中,我们利用水稻(Oryza sativa L.)加倍单倍体(DH)群体的高密度遗传图谱分析了与脱落相关的QTL。基于清仓籼稻品种和纳洞粳稻品种杂交产生的120个双单倍体(DHL),构建了一个包含217个微卫星标记的遗传连锁图谱,该图谱跨度为2082.4 cM,覆盖12条水稻染色体,标记间平均间隔为9.6 cM。在QTL分析中,2013年和2015年检测到5个与断裂拉伸强度(BTS)相关的QTL。检测到与染色体1和染色体6上BTS相关的QTL的两个区域。几个重要基因分布在染色体6上QTL的1 Mbp区域,它们与离层的形成有关。我们决定将这个QTL命名为qSh6,qSh6区域的候选基因可有效地用于进一步的克隆研究。
