Abstract
Bermudagrass (Cynodon spp.) breeding and cultivar development is hampered by limited information regarding its genetic and phenotypic diversity. To explore diversity in bermudagrass, a total of 206 Cynodon accessions consisting of 193 common bermudagrass (C. dactylon var. dactylon) and 13 African bermudagrass (C. transvaalensis) accessions of worldwide origin were assembled for genetic characterization. Genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) was employed for genetic marker development. With a minor allele frequency of 0.05 and a minimum call rate of 0.5, a total of 37,496 raw single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were called de novo and were used in the genetic diversity characterization. Population structure analysis using ADMIXTURE revealed four subpopulations in this germplasm panel, which was consistent with principal component analysis (PCA) and phylogenetic analysis results. The first three principal components explained 15.6%, 10.1%, and 3.8% of the variance in the germplasm panel, respectively. The first subpopulation consisted of C. dactylon accessions from various continents; the second subpopulation was comprised mainly of C. transvaalensis accessions; the third subpopulation contained C. dactylon accessions primarily of African origin; and the fourth subpopulation represented C. dactylon accessions obtained from the Oklahoma State University bermudagrass breeding program. Genetic diversity parameters including Nei's genetic distance, inbreeding coefficient, and Fst statistic revealed substantial genetic variation in the Cynodon accessions, demonstrating the potential of this germplasm panel for further genetic studies and cultivar development in breeding programs.

Abstract
Polyploidy is the main mechanism for chromosome number variation in Cynodon. Taxonomic boundaries are difficult to define and, although phylogenetic studies indicate that some species are closely related, the degree of genomic similarity remains unknown. Furthermore, the Cynodon species classification as auto or allopolyploids is still controversial. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the genomic constitution in diploid and polyploid species using different approaches of genomic in situ hybridization (GISH). To better understand the hybridization events, we also investigated the occurrence of unreduced gametes in C. dactylon diploid pollen grains. We suggest a genomic nomenclature of diploid species as DD, D1D1, and D2D2 for C. dactylon, C. incompletus, and C. nlemfuensis, and DDD2D2 and DD2D1D1 for the segmental allotetraploids of Cynodon dactylon and C. transvaalensis, respectively. Furthermore, an evolutionary proposal was built based on our results and previous data from other studies, showing possible crosses that may have occurred between Cynodon species.

[PMID: 33437458 PMCID: PMC7790655 DOI: 10.1002/ece3.7095] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/22/2020] [Revised: 11/16/2020] [Accepted: 11/19/2020] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
Deschampsia antarctica Desv. can be found in diverse Antarctic habitats which may vary considerably in terms of environmental conditions and soil properties. As a result, the species is characterized by wide ecotypic variation in terms of both morphological and anatomical traits. The species is a unique example of an organism that can successfully colonize inhospitable regions due to its phenomenal ability to adapt to both the local mosaic of microhabitats and to general climatic fluctuations. For this reason, D. antarctica has been widely investigated in studies analyzing morphophysiological and biochemical responses to various abiotic stresses (frost, drought, salinity, increased UV radiation). However, there is little evidence to indicate whether the observed polymorphism is accompanied by the corresponding genetic variation. In the present study, retrotransposon-based iPBS markers were used to trace the genetic variation of D. antarctica collected in nine sites of the Arctowski oasis on King George Island (Western Antarctic). The genotyping of 165 individuals from nine populations with seven iPBS primers revealed 125 amplification products, 15 of which (12%) were polymorphic, with an average of 5.6% polymorphic fragments per population. Only one of the polymorphic fragments, observed in population 6, was represented as a private band. The analyzed specimens were characterized by low genetic diversity (uHe = 0.021, I = 0.030) and high population differentiation (F ST = 0.4874). An analysis of Fu's F S statistics and mismatch distribution in most populations (excluding population 2, 6 and 9) revealed demographic/spatial expansion, whereas significant traces of reduction in effective population size were found in three populations (1, 3 and 5). The iPBS markers revealed genetic polymorphism of D. antarctica, which could be attributed to the mobilization of random transposable elements, unique features of reproductive biology, and/or geographic location of the examined populations.

BMC Genet 2020; 21:86. [PMID: 32787786 PMCID: PMC7425169 DOI: 10.1186/s12863-020-00892-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2020] [Accepted: 07/21/2020] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Stenotaphrum secundatum is an important grass with a rich variety of accessions and great potential for development as an economically valuable crop. However, little is known about the genetic diversity of S. secundatum, limiting its application and development as a crop. Here, to provide a theoretical basis for further conservation, utilization, and classification of S. secundatum germplasm resources, we used phenotypic and molecular markers (single-nucleotide polymorphisms, SNPs; sequence-related amplified polymorphism, SRAP; inter-simple sequence repeat, ISSR) to analyze the genetic diversity of 49 S. secundatum accessions. RESULTS Based on seven types of phenotypic data, the 49 S. secundatum accessions could be divided into three classes with great variation. We identified 1,280,873 SNPs in the 49 accessions, among which 66.22% were transition SNPs and 33.78% were transversion SNPs. Among these, C/T was the most common (19.12%) and G/C the least common (3.68%). Using 28 SRAP primers, 267 polymorphic bands were detected from the 273 bands amplified. In addition, 27 ISSR markers generated 527 amplification bands, all of which were polymorphic. Both marker types revealed a high level of genetic diversity, with ISSR markers showing a higher percentage of polymorphic loci (100%) than SRAP markers (97.8%). The genetic diversity of the accessions based on SRAP markers (h = 0.47, I = 0.66) and ISSR markers (h = 0.45, I = 0.64) supports the notion that the S. secundatum accessions are highly diverse. S. secundatum could be divided into three classes based on the evaluated molecular markers. CONCLUSIONS Phenotypic and molecular marker analysis using SNP, SRAP, and ISSR markers revealed great genetic variation among S. secundatum accessions, which were consistently divided into three classes. Our findings provide a theoretical basis for the genetic diversity and classification of S. secundatum. Our results indicate that SNP, SRAP and ISSR markers are reliable and effective for analyzing genetic diversity in S. secundatum. The SNPs identified in this study could be used to distinguish S. secundatum accessions.

Abstract
Bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon Pers.) is an important warm-season perennial used extensively for turf, forage, soil conservation and remediation worldwide. However, limited genomic information has hindered the application of molecular tools towards understanding genome evolution and in breeding new cultivars. We genotype a first-generation selfed population derived from the tetraploid (4x = 36) ‘A12359’ using genotyping-by-sequencing. A high-density genetic map of 18 linkage groups (LGs) is constructed with 3,544 markers. Comparative genomic analyses reveal that each of nine homeologous LG pairs of C. dactylon corresponds to one of the first nine chromosomes of Oropetium thomaeum. Two nested paleo-ancestor chromosome fusions (ρ6-ρ9-ρ6, ρ2-ρ10-ρ2) may have resulted in a 12-to-10 chromosome reduction. A segmental dissemination of the paleo-chromosome ρ12 (ρ1-ρ12-ρ1, ρ6-ρ12-ρ6) leads to the 10-to-9 chromosome reduction in C. dactylon genome. The genetic map will assist in an ongoing whole genome sequence assembly and facilitate marker-assisted selection (MAS) in developing new cultivars. Tilin Fang et al. study the genome of Bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon Pers.). They use genotyping-by-sequencing and provide a genetic map with a 10-fold increase in genetic marker density. Comparative genomics analyses reveal chromosome rearrangements. Their work will contribute to whole genome assembly efforts which will be beneficial for developing new cultivars.

Genetic Diversity and Population Structure of Bermudagrass [Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers.] along Latitudinal Gradients and the Relationship with Polyploidy Level. DIVERSITY 2019.

Abstract
Understanding the population genetic pattern and process of gene flow requires a detailed knowledge of how landscape characteristics structure populations. Although Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers. (common bermudagrass) is widely distributed in the world, information on its genetic pattern and population structure along latitudinal gradients is limited. We tried to estimate the genetic diversity and genetic structure of C. dactylon along a latitudinal gradient across China. Genetic diversity among different ploidy levels was also compared in the study. The material used consisted of 296 C. dactylon individuals sampled from 16 geographic sites from 22°35′ N to 36°18′ N. Genetic diversity was estimated using 153 expressed sequence tag-derived simple sequence repeat (EST-SSR) loci. Higher within-population genetic diversity appeared at low-latitude, as well as having positive correlation with temperature and precipitation. The genetic diversity increased with the ploidy level of C. dactylon, suggesting polyploidy creates higher genetic diversity. No isolation by distance and notable admixture structure existed among populations along latitudes. Both seed dispersal (or vegetative organs) and extrinsic pollen played important roles for gene flow in shaping the spatial admixture population structure of C. dactylon along latitudes. In addition, populations were separated into three clusters according to ploidy levels. C. dactylon has many such biological characters of perennial growth, wind-pollination, polyploidy, low genetic differentiation among populations, sexual and asexual reproduction leading to higher genetic diversity, which gives it strong adaptability with its genetic patterns being very complex across all the sampled latitudes. The findings of this study are related to landscape population evolution, polyploidy speciation, preservation, and use of bermudagrass breeding.

Abstract
Cynodon dactylon is characterized by taxonomic and systematic complexity, and polyploidy is one of the factors responsible for its genetic and morphological diversity. The aim of the present study was to compare karyotypes of C. dactylon cytotypes based on fluorescent banding and nuclear DNA content. The nine C. dactylon accessions evaluated were obtained from the Active Germplasm Bank (BAG) of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). Roots were pretreated with cycloheximide, fixed in Carnoy's solution and subjected to enzymatic digestion. Slides were prepared by the dissociation and air-drying technique. The fluorescent banding pattern was obtained using chromomycin A3 (CMA)/4,6-dimidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) staining and DNA content was estimated by flow cytometry. The chromosome number of the accessions ranged from 2n = 2x = 18 to 2n = 5x = 45. Chromosomal polymorphism was observed based on the distribution and number of heterochromatic bands, with CMA+ bands located in the pericentromeric position and DAPI+ bands mainly in the terminal position. PI477004-26 (2n = 3x = 27) and PI291966-27 (2n = 4x = 36) had the highest and lowest number of DAPI+ bands, respectively. The number of CMA+ bands was stable, as only PI477004-26, PI291966-27 and PI289750-10 (2n = 5x = 45) showed variation. There was no direct correlation between an increase in the ploidy level and an increase in the percentage of heterochromatic regions, mainly in relation to A-T-rich blocks. The chromosomal banding variation found reinforces the notion of allopolyploidy occurrence in C. dactylon and demonstrates the genomic complexity of this species regard to repetitive DNA content.

Abstract
Capsicum is thought as one of the most diverse and significant genera due to its varied uses in different parts of the world. In this study, we worked with a total of 71 pepper genotypes from different locations of Turkey to investigate the level of their diversity using the peroxidase gene polymorphism (POGP) markers to reveal their population structure. For this purpose, 14 peroxidase primer pairs were used. They produced 139 bands (mean = 9.9 bands/primer), of which ~ 85.6% were polymorphic in the all germplasm collection. Polymorphism information content (PIC) ranged between 0.48 and 0.97 with an average of 0.75. Range and mean values for gene diversity (h) were 0.09-0.22 and 0.17, respectively. Shannon's information index (I) per POGP marker ranged from 0.18 to 0.35 with a mean of 0.29. Using three clustering methods (unweighted pair-group method with arithmetic means, principal coordinate analysis, and STRUCTURE) revealed a clear separation of all the C. annuum accessions from C. frutescens and C. chinense accessions in our study. Clusters did not establish an association between the accessions and their geographical origin. This is the first study exploring the population structure through the genetic diversity of Turkish peppers from different regions of the country based on the peroxidase gene markers.

Genetic diversity and population structure of Chinese natural bermudagrass [Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers.] germplasm based on SRAP markers. PLoS One 2017; 12:e0177508.

Abstract
Bermudagrass [Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers.], an important turfgrass used in public parks, home lawns, golf courses and sports fields, is widely distributed in China. In the present study, sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) markers were used to assess genetic diversity and population structure among 157 indigenous bermudagrass genotypes from 20 provinces in China. The application of 26 SRAP primer pairs produced 340 bands, of which 328 (96.58%) were polymorphic. The polymorphic information content (PIC) ranged from 0.36 to 0.49 with a mean of 0.44. Genetic distance coefficients among accessions ranged from 0.04 to 0.61, with an average of 0.32. The results of STRUCTURE analysis suggested that 157 bermudagrass accessions can be grouped into three subpopulations. Moreover, according to clustering based on the unweighted pair-group method of arithmetic averages (UPGMA), accessions were divided into three major clusters. The UPGMA dendrogram revealed that accessions from identical or adjacent areas were generally, but not entirely, clustered into the same cluster. Comparison of the UPGMA dendrogram and the Bayesian STRUCTURE analysis showed general agreement between the population subdivisions and the genetic relationships among accessions. Principal coordinate analysis (PCoA) with SRAP markers revealed a similar grouping of accessions to the UPGMA dendrogram and STRUCTUE analysis. Analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA) indicated that 18% of total molecular variance was attributed to diversity among subpopulations, while 82% of variance was associated with differences within subpopulations. Our study represents the most comprehensive investigation of the genetic diversity and population structure of bermudagrass in China to date, and provides valuable information for the germplasm collection, genetic improvement, and systematic utilization of bermudagrass.

Abstract
We report SSR-enriched genetic maps of bermudagrass that: (1) reveal partial residual polysomic inheritance in the tetraploid species, and (2) provide insights into the evolution of chloridoid genomes. This study describes genetic linkage maps of two bermudagrass species, Cynodon dactylon (T89) and Cynodon transvaalensis (T574), that integrate heterologous microsatellite markers from sugarcane into frameworks built with single-dose restriction fragments (SDRFs). A maximum likelihood approach was used to construct two separate parental maps from a population of 110 F1 progeny of a cross between the two parents. The T89 map is based on 291 loci on 34 cosegregating groups (CGs), with an average marker spacing of 12.5 cM. The T574 map is based on 125 loci on 14 CGs, with an average marker spacing of 10.7 cM. Six T89 and one T574 CG(s) deviated from disomic inheritance. Furthermore, marker segregation data and linkage phase analysis revealed partial residual polysomic inheritance in T89, suggesting that common bermudagrass is undergoing diploidization following whole genome duplication (WGD). Twenty-six T89 CGs were coalesced into 9 homo(eo)logous linkage groups (LGs), while 12 T574 CGs were assembled into 9 LGs, both putatively representing the basic chromosome complement (x = 9) of the species. Eight T89 and two T574 CGs remain unassigned. The marker composition of bermudagrass ancestral chromosomes was inferred by aligning T89 and T574 homologs, and used in comparisons to sorghum and rice genome sequences based on 108 and 91 significant blast hits, respectively. Two nested chromosome fusions (NCFs) shared by two other chloridoids (i.e., zoysiagrass and finger millet) and at least three independent translocation events were evident during chromosome number reduction from 14 in the polyploid common ancestor of Poaceae to 9 in Cynodon.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Brachypodium distachyon (Brachypodium) is a model system for studying cereal, bioenergy, forage and turf grasses. The genetic and evolutionary basis of the adaptation of this wild grass species to drought stress is largely unknown. Peroxidase (POD) may play a role in plant drought tolerance, but whether the allelic variations of genes encoding the specific POD isoenzymes are associated with plant response to drought stress is not well understood. The objectives of this study were to examine natural variation of POD isoenzyme patterns, to identify nucleotide diversity of POD genes and to relate the allelic variation of genes to drought tolerance traits of diverse Brachypodium accessions. METHODS Whole-plant drought tolerance and POD activity were examined in contrasting ecotypes. Non-denaturing PAGE and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry were performed to detect distinct isozymes of POD in 34 accessions. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were identified by comparing DNA sequences of these accessions. Associations of POD genes encoding specific POD isoenzymes with drought tolerance traits were analysed using TASSEL software. KEY RESULTS Variations of POD isoenzymes were found among accessions with contrasting drought tolerance, while the most tolerant and susceptible accessions each had their own unique POD isoenzyme band. Eight POD genes were identified and a total of 90 SNPs were found among these genes across 34 accessions. After controlling population structure, significant associations of Bradi3g41340.1 and Bradi1g26870.1 with leaf water content or leaf wilting were identified. CONCLUSIONS Brachypodium ecotypes have distinct specific POD isozymes. This may contribute to natural variations of drought tolerance of this species. The role of specific POD genes in differentiating Brachypodium accessions with contrasting drought tolerance could be associated with the general fitness of Brachypodium during evolution.

Abstract
Common bermudagrass [C. dactylon (L.) Pers. var. dactylon] is economically and environmentally the most important member among Cynodon species because of its extensive use for turf, forage and soil erosion control in the world. However, information regarding the inheritance within the taxon is limited. Accordingly, the objective of this study was to determine qualitative inheritance mode in common bermudagrass. Two tetraploid (2n = 4x = 36), first-generation selfed (S1) populations, 228 progenies of ‘Zebra’ and 273 from A12359, were analyzed for segregation with 21 and 12 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers, respectively. It is concluded that the inheritance mode of tetraploid bermudagrass was complete or near complete disomic. It is evident that the two bermudagrass parents had an allotetraploid genome with two distinct subgenomes since 33 SSR primer pairs amplified 34 loci, each having two alleles. Severe transmission ratio distortions occurred in the Zebra population while less so in the A12359 population. The findings of disomic inheritance and segregation ratio distortion in common bermudagrass is significant in subsequent linkage map construction, quantitative trait locus mapping and marker-assisted selection in the species.

Abstract
The allelochemical stress on Zea mays was analyzed by using walnut husk washing waters (WHWW), a by-product of Juglans regia post-harvest process, which possesses strong allelopathic potential and phytotoxic effects. Oxidative damage and cell-programmed death were induced by WHWW in roots of maize seedlings. Treatment induced ROS burst, with excess of H2O2 content. Enzymatic activities of catalase were strongly increased during the first hours of exposure. The excess in malonildialdehyde following exposure to WHWW confirmed that oxidative stress severely damaged maize roots. Membrane alteration caused a decrease in NADPH oxidase activity along with DNA damage as confirmed by DNA laddering. The DNA instability was also assessed through sequence-related amplified polymorphism assay, thus suggesting the danger of walnut processing by-product and focusing the attention on the necessity of an efficient treatment of WHWW.

Abstract
Although Cynodon dactylon (C. dactylon) is widely distributed in China, information on its genetic diversity within the germplasm pool is limited. The objective of this study was to reveal the genetic variation and relationships of 430 C. dactylon accessions collected from 22 Chinese provinces using sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) markers. Fifteen primer pairs were used to amplify specific C. dactylon genomic sequences. A total of 481 SRAP fragments were generated, with fragment sizes ranging from 260-1800 base pairs (bp). Genetic similarity coefficients (GSC) among the 430 accessions averaged 0.72 and ranged from 0.53-0.96. Cluster analysis conducted by two methods, namely the unweighted pair-group method with arithmetic averages (UPGMA) and principle coordinate analysis (PCoA), separated the accessions into eight distinct groups. Our findings verify that Chinese C. dactylon germplasms have rich genetic diversity, which is an excellent basis for C. dactylon breeding for new cultivars.

Abstract
In the past few decades, many investigations in the field of plant biology have employed selectively neutral, multilocus, dominant markers such as inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR), random-amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), and amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) to address hypotheses at lower taxonomic levels. More recently, sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) markers have been developed, which are used to amplify coding regions of DNA with primers targeting open reading frames. These markers have proven to be robust and highly variable, on par with AFLP, and are attained through a significantly less technically demanding process. SRAP markers have been used primarily for agronomic and horticultural purposes, developing quantitative trait loci in advanced hybrids and assessing genetic diversity of large germplasm collections. Here, we suggest that SRAP markers should be employed for research addressing hypotheses in plant systematics, biogeography, conservation, ecology, and beyond. We provide an overview of the SRAP literature to date, review descriptive statistics of SRAP markers in a subset of 171 publications, and present relevant case studies to demonstrate the applicability of SRAP markers to the diverse field of plant biology. Results of these selected works indicate that SRAP markers have the potential to enhance the current suite of molecular tools in a diversity of fields by providing an easy-to-use, highly variable marker with inherent biological significance.

Abstract
With the emergence of more and more molecular markers as useful tools in plethora of population genetic and phylogenetic studies, choice of marker system for a particular study has become mind boggling. These marker systems differ in their advantages and disadvantages, so it is imperative to keep in mind all the pros and cons of the technique while selecting one for the problem to be addressed.Here, we have shed light on the ISSR (intersimple sequence repeat) technique, as a marker of choice if one wants to go for properties such as reliability, simplicity, cost effectiveness, and speed, in addition to assessing genetic diversity between closely related individuals. We have outlined here the whole methodology of this technique with an example of Tribulus terrestris as case study.

Abstract
Bermudagrass (Cynodon spp.) is a major turfgrass for home lawns, public parks, golf courses and sport fields and is known to have originated in the Middle East. Morphological and physiological characteristics are not sufficient to differentiate some bermudagrass genotypes because the differences between them are often subtle and subjected to environmental influences. In this study, twenty seven bermudagrass accessions and introductions, mostly from different parts of Iran, were assayed by inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers to differentiate and explore their genetic relationships. Fourteen ISSR primers amplified 389 fragments of which 313 (80.5%) were polymorphic. The average polymorphism information content (PIC) was 0.328, which shows that the majority of primers are informative. Cluster analysis using the un-weighted paired group method with arithmetic average (UPGMA) method and Jaccard’s similarity coefficient (r = 0.828) grouped the accessions into six main clusters according to some degree to geographical origin, their chromosome number and some morphological characteristics. It can be concluded that there exists a wide genetic base of bermudograss in Iran and that ISSR markers are effective in determining genetic diversity and relationships among them.

Abstract
Clarification of relationships among ploidy series of Cynodon accessions could be beneficial to bermudagrass breeding programs, and would enhance our understanding of the evolutionary biology of this warm season grass species. This study was initiated to elucidate polyploidization among Cynodon accessions with different ploidy series collected from Turkey based on chloroplast and nuclear DNA. Forty Cynodon accessions including 7 diploids, 3 triploids, 10 tetraploids, 11 pentaploids, and 9 hexaploids were analyzed using chloroplast DNA restriction fragment-length polymorphism (cpDNA RFLP), chloroplast DNA simple sequence repeat (cpDNA SSR), and nuclear DNA markers based on neighbor-joining (NJ) and principle component analyses (PCA). All three-marker systems with two statistical algorithms clustered the diploids apart from the other ploidy levels. Assuming autopolyploidy, spontaneous polyploidization followed by rapid diversification among the higher ploidy levels than the diploids is likely in Cynodon's evolution. Few tetraploid and hexaploid accessions were clustered with or closely to the group of diploids, supporting the hypothesis above. Eleven haplotypes as estimated by cpDNA RFLP and SSR markers were detected. This study indicated that the diploids had different organelle genome from the rest of the ploidy series and provided valuable insight into relationships among ploidy series of Cynodon accessions based on cp and nuclear DNAs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sequence related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) is commonly used to construct high density genetic maps, map genes and QTL of important agronomic traits in crops and perform genetic diversity analysis without knowing sequence information. To combine next generation sequencing technology with SRAP, Illumina's Solexa sequencing was used to sequence tagged SRAP PCR products. RESULTS Three sets of SRAP primers and three sets of tagging primers were used in 77,568 SRAP PCR reactions and the same number of tagging PCR reactions respectively to produce a pooled sample for Illumina's Solexa sequencing. After sequencing, 1.28 GB of sequence with over 13 million paired-end sequences was obtained and used to match Solexa sequences with their corresponding SRAP markers and to integrate Solexa sequences on an ultradense genetic map. The ultradense genetic bin map with 465 bins was constructed using a recombinant inbred (RI) line mapping population in B. rapa. For this ultradense genetic bin map, 9,177 SRAP markers, 1,737 integrated unique Solexa paired-end sequences and 46 SSR markers representing 10,960 independent genetic loci were assembled and 141 unique Solexa paired-end sequences were matched with their corresponding SRAP markers. The genetic map in B. rapa was aligned with the previous ultradense genetic map in B. napus through common SRAP markers in these two species. Additionally, SSR markers were used to perform alignment of the current genetic map with other five genetic maps in B. rapa and B. napus. CONCLUSION We used SRAP to construct an ultradense genetic map with 10,960 independent genetic loci in B. rapa that is the most saturated genetic map ever constructed in this species. Using next generation sequencing, we integrated 1,878 Solexa sequences on the genetic map. These integrated sequences will be used to assemble the scaffolds in the B. rapa genome. Additionally, this genetic map may be used for gene cloning and marker development in B. rapa and B. napus.
