[PMID: 38455579 PMCID: PMC10918151 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e26720] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/02/2023] [Revised: 01/25/2024] [Accepted: 02/19/2024] [Indexed: 03/09/2024] Open
Abstract
There are two cultivated and weedy types of Perilla crop (TCWTPC), and they are widely distributed and cultivated in East Asia, especially in South Korea and Japan. The objective of this study is to create simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers linked to morphological traits that show differences between accessions of the TCWTPC using recently designed SSR primer sets in Perilla crop. Genetic diversity within 52 accessions of the TCWTPC, gathered from South Korea, was assessed using 28 novel Perilla SSR primer sets. Based on the assessment, a collection of 28 Perilla SSR primer sets were shown to exhibit polymorphism and yielded a total of 142 alleles across the 52 accessions of the TCWTPC. Through inspection of a phylogenetic tree and population structure, the 52 accessions of the TCWTPC were classified into three major groups. Although most accessions of the TCWTPC were relatively clearly distinguished, SSR markers failed to distinguish several accessions belonging to the two weedy types of the Perilla crop. By using an association mapping analysis (AMA) of the 28 Perilla SSR markers and seven morphological characteristics in the 52 TCWTPC accessions, we detected that three of the Perilla SSR markers (KNUPF134, KNUPF137, KNUPF149) were associated with plant and seed characteristics. The novel SSR primer sets developed in Perilla crop should be useful in AMA for assessing genetic diversity and relationships between and within TCWTPC accessions, and this information will be helpful for genetic mapping in breeding programs for Perilla crop.

Toxic effects of lead on plants: integrating multi-omics with bioinformatics to develop Pb-tolerant crops. PLANTA 2023; 259:18. [PMID: 38085368 DOI: 10.1007/s00425-023-04296-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/11/2023] [Accepted: 11/15/2023] [Indexed: 12/18/2023]
Abstract
MAIN CONCLUSION Lead disrupts plant metabolic homeostasis and key structural elements. Utilizing modern biotechnology tools, it's feasible to develop Pb-tolerant varieties by discovering biological players regulating plant metabolic pathways under stress. Lead (Pb) has been used for a variety of purposes since antiquity despite its toxic nature. After arsenic, lead is the most hazardous heavy metal without any known beneficial role in the biological system. It is a crucial inorganic pollutant that affects plant biochemical and morpho-physiological attributes. Lead toxicity harms plants throughout their life cycle and the extent of damage depends on the concentration and duration of exposure. Higher levels of lead exposure disrupt numerous key metabolic activities of plants including oxygen-evolving complex, organelles integrity, photosystem II connectivity, and electron transport chain. This review summarizes the detrimental effects of lead toxicity on seed germination, crop growth, and yield, oxidative and ultra-structural alterations, as well as nutrient absorption, transport, and assimilation. Further, it discusses the Pb-induced toxic modulation of stomatal conductance, photosynthesis, respiration, metabolic-enzymatic activity, osmolytes accumulation, and antioxidant activity. It is a comprehensive review that reports on omics-based studies along with morpho-physiological and biochemical modifications caused by lead stress. With advances in DNA sequencing technologies, genomics and transcriptomics are gradually becoming popular for studying Pb stress effects in plants. Proteomics and metabolomics are still underrated and there is a scarcity of published data, and this review highlights both their technical and research gaps. Besides, there is also a discussion on how the integration of omics with bioinformatics and the use of the latest biotechnological tools can aid in developing Pb-tolerant crops. The review concludes with core challenges and research directions that need to be addressed soon.

Association Mapping for Evaluation of Population Structure, Genetic Diversity, and Physiochemical Traits in Drought-Stressed Maize Germplasm Using SSR Markers. PLANTS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 12:4092. [PMID: 38140419 PMCID: PMC10747078 DOI: 10.3390/plants12244092] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/29/2023] [Revised: 12/01/2023] [Accepted: 12/05/2023] [Indexed: 12/24/2023]
Abstract
Globally, maize is one of the most consumed crops along with rice and wheat. However, maize is sensitive to different abiotic stress factors, such as drought, which have a significant impact on its production. The aims of this study were to investigate (1) genetic variation among 41 maize-inbred lines and the relationships among them and (2) significant marker-trait associations (SMTAs) between 7 selected physiochemical traits and 200 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers to examine the genetics of these traits. A total of 1023 alleles were identified among the 41 maize-inbred lines using the 200 SSR loci, with a mean of 5.1 alleles per locus. The average major allele frequency, gene diversity, and polymorphism information content were 0.498, 0.627, and 0.579, respectively. The population structure analysis based on the 200 SSR loci divided the maize germplasm into two primary groups with an admixed group. Moreover, this study identified, respectively, 85 SMTAs and 31 SMTAs using a general linear model (Q GLM) and a mixed linear model (Q + K MLM) with statistically significant (p < 0.05 and <0.01) associations with the seven physiochemical traits (caffeic acid content, chlorogenic acid content, gallic acid content, ferulic acid content, 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl free radical scavenging activity, leaf relative moisture content, total phenolic content). These SSR markers were highly correlated with one or more of the seven physiochemical traits. This study provides insights into the genetics of the 41 maize-inbred lines and their seven physiochemical traits and will be of assistance to breeders in the marker-assisted selection of maize for breeding programs.

Efficacy of Carbon Nanodots and Manganese Ferrite (MnFe 2O 4) Nanoparticles in Stimulating Growth and Antioxidant Activity in Drought-Stressed Maize Inbred Lines. PLANTS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 12:2922. [PMID: 37631134 PMCID: PMC10458536 DOI: 10.3390/plants12162922] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/21/2023] [Revised: 08/08/2023] [Accepted: 08/09/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023]
Abstract
Despite being the third most-consumed crop, maize (Zea mays L.) is highly vulnerable to drought stress. The predominant secondary metabolite in plants is phenolic acids, which scavenge reactive oxygen species to minimize oxidative stress under drought stress. Herein, the effect of carbon nanodots (CND) and manganese ferrite (MnFe2O4) nanoparticles (NP) on the drought stress tolerance of maize has been studied. The experimental results revealed that the highest leaf blade length (54.0 cm) and width (3.9 cm), root length (45.2 cm), stem diameter (11.1 mm), root fresh weight (7.0 g), leaf relative water content (84.8%) and chlorogenic (8.7 µg/mL), caffeic (3.0 µg/mL) and syringic acid (1.0 µg/mL) contents were demonstrated by CND-treated (10 mg L-1) inbred lines (GP5, HW19, HCW2, 17YS6032, HCW3, HCW4, HW7, HCW2, and 16S8068-9, respectively). However, the highest shoot length (71.5 cm), leaf moisture content (83.9%), shoot fresh weight (12.5 g), chlorophyll content (47.3), and DPPH free radical scavenging activity (34.1%) were observed in MnFe2O4 NP-treated (300 mg L-1) HF12, HW15, 11BS8016-7, HW15, HW12, and KW7 lines, respectively. The results indicate that CND and MnFe2O4 NP can mitigate drought stress effects on different accessions of the given population, as corroborated by improvements in growth and physio-biochemical traits among several inbred lines of maize.

Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) Life Table Comparisons and Gut Microbiome Analysis Reared on Corn Varieties. INSECTS 2023; 14:358. [PMID: 37103173 PMCID: PMC10146201 DOI: 10.3390/insects14040358] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/26/2023] [Revised: 03/28/2023] [Accepted: 03/31/2023] [Indexed: 06/19/2023]
Abstract
The fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda, FAW) is an invasive migratory pest that has recently spread to Korea, damaging several corn cultivars with significant economic value. Comparisons of the growth stages of FAW were conducted based on the preferred feed. Therefore, we selected six maize cultivars, including three categories: (i) commercial waxy corn (mibaek 2-ho, heukjeom 2-ho, dreamoak); (ii) popcorn (oryun popcorn, oryun 2-ho); and (iii) processing corn (miheukchal). A significant effect was observed during the larvae period, pupal period, egg hatching ratio, and larvae weight, whereas the total survival period and adult period did not show significant variation among the tested corn cultivars. We identified variations in the FAW gut bacterial community that were dependent on the genotype of the corn maize feed. The identified phyla included Firmicutes, Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, and Bacteroidetes. Among these genera, the most abundant bacterial genus was Enterococcus, followed by Ureibacillus. Enterococcus mundtii was the most abundant among the top 40 bacterial species. The intergenic PCR-based amplification and gene sequence of the colony isolates were also matched to the GenBank owing to the prevalence of E. mundtii. These results showed that the bacterial diversity and abundance of particular bacteria in the guts of FAWs were influenced by the six major maize corn cultivars.

Association Mapping of Amylose Content in Maize RIL Population Using SSR and SNP Markers. PLANTS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 12:239. [PMID: 36678952 PMCID: PMC9865990 DOI: 10.3390/plants12020239] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2022] [Revised: 12/27/2022] [Accepted: 12/28/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
The ratio of amylose to amylopectin in maize kernel starch is important for the appearance, structure, and quality of food products and processing. This study aimed to identify quantitative trait loci (QTLs) controlling amylose content in maize through association mapping with simple sequence repeat (SSR) and single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers. The average value of amylose content for an 80-recombinant-inbred-line (RIL) population was 8.8 ± 0.7%, ranging from 2.1 to 15.9%. We used two different analyses-Q + K and PCA + K mixed linear models (MLMs)-and found 38 (35 SNP and 3 SSR) and 32 (29 SNP and 3 SSR) marker-trait associations (MTAs) associated with amylose content. A total of 34 (31 SNP and 3 SSR) and 28 (25 SNP and 3 SSR) MTAs were confirmed in the Q + K and PCA + K MLMs, respectively. This study detected some candidate genes for amylose content, such as GRMZM2G118690-encoding BBR/BPC transcription factor, which is used for the control of seed development and is associated with the amylose content of rice. GRMZM5G830776-encoding SNARE-interacting protein (KEULE) and the uncharacterized marker PUT-163a-18172151-1376 were significant with higher R2 value in two difference methods. GRMZM2G092296 were also significantly associated with amylose content in this study. This study focused on amylose content using a RIL population derived from dent and waxy inbred lines using molecular markers. Future studies would be of benefit for investigating the physical linkage between starch synthesis genes using SNP and SSR markers, which would help to build a more detailed genetic map and provide new insights into gene regulation of agriculturally important traits.

Abstract
The Perilla crop is highly regarded in South Korea, both as a health food and traditional food. However, there is still a lack of Perilla SSR primer sets (PSPSs) for studying genetic variation among accessions of cultivated and weedy types of Perilla crop (CWTPC) from South Korea. In this study, 30 PSPSs were newly developed based on transcriptome contigs in P. frutescens, and 17 of these PSPSs were used to study the genetic diversity, phylogenetic relationships and structure population among 90 accessions of the CWTPC collected from South Korea. A total of 100 alleles were detected from selected 17 PSPSs, with an average of 5.9 alleles per locus. The gene diversity (GD) ranged from 0.164 to 0.831, with an average of 0.549. The average GD values from the cultivated var. frutescens, weedy var. frutescens, and weedy var. crispa, were 0.331, 0.588, and 0.389 respectively. In addition, most variance shown by Perilla SSR markers was within a population (73%). An analysis of the population structure and phylogenetic relationships showed that the genetic relationship among accessions of the weedy var. frutescens and weedy var. crispa is closer than that for the accessions of the cultivated var. frutescens. Based on association analysis between 17 PSPSs and three seed traits in 90 Perilla accessions, we detected 11 PSPSs that together were associated with the seed size and seed hardness traits. Therefore, the newly developed PSPSs will be useful for analyzing genetic variation among accessions of the CWTPC, association mapping, and selection of important morphological traits in Perilla crop breeding programs.

Abstract
Maize is one of the leading global cereals, and in South Sudan maize cultivation occurs in nearly all of the country's agro-ecological zones. Despite its widespread cultivation, farmers in South Sudan depend on undeveloped varieties, which results in very low yields in the field. In the current study, 27 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers were used to investigate genetic diversity and population structures among 37 landrace maize accessions collected from farmers' fields in South Sudan. In total, 200 alleles were revealed with an average of 7.4 alleles per locus and a range from 3.0 to 13.0 alleles per locus. The observed heterozygosity values ranged from 0.06 to 0.91 with an average of 0.35. High polymorphic information content (PIC) values were identified with a mean of 0.69, which indicates the informativeness of the chosen SSR loci. Genetic structure analysis revealed a moderate genetic differentiation among the maize populations with a fixation index of 0.16, while there was very high genetic differentiation within the groups of populations of three regions with a mean fixation index (F) of 0.37. An unweighted pair group method with an arithmetic mean (UPGMA) dendrogram clustered the 37 maize accessions into three groups with 43% genetic similarity. The clustering pattern of the maize accessions was moderately consistent with their collection area. The findings of this study will provide maize breeders with a better understanding of maize diversification as well as a reserve of genetic resources for use in the selection of advantageous and useful resources for the development of maize varieties in South Sudan.

Genetic variation of seed oil characteristics in native Korean germplasm of Perilla crop (Perilla frutescens L.) using SSR markers. Genes Genomics 2022; 44:1159-1170. [PMID: 35900697 DOI: 10.1007/s13258-022-01289-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2022] [Accepted: 07/13/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND In order to maximize the use of valuable native Perilla germplasm in South Korea, knowledge of the Perilla seed oil content and genetic variation among native Perilla germplasm resources is very important for the conservation and development of new Perilla seed oil varieties using the native Perilla germplasm accessions preserved from the Rural Development Administration Genebank (RDA-Genebank) collection from South Korea. OBJECTIVES In this study, we studied population structure and association mapping to identify Perilla SSR markers (PSMs) associated with the five fatty acid contents and two seed characteristics of the native Korean Perilla germplasm accessions of cultivated var. frutescens of the RDA-Genebank collected in South Korea. METHODS For an association mapping analysis to find PSMs associated with the five fatty acid contents and two seed characteristics of the Perilla germplasm accessions of cultivated var. frutescens, we evaluated the content of five fatty acids of 280 native Korean Perilla germplasm accessions and used 29 Perilla SSR primer sets to measure the genetic diversity and relationships, population structure, and association mapping of the native Korean Perilla germplasm accessions of the RDA-Genebank collected in South Korea. RESULTS Five fatty acids of 280 native Korean Perilla accessions were identified as follows: palmitic acid (PA) (5.30-8.66%), stearic acid (SA) (1.60-4.19%), oleic acid (OA) (9.60-22.5%), linoleic acid (LA) (8.38-25.4%), and linolenic acid (LNA) (52.7-76.4%). In a correlation analysis among the five fatty acids and two seed characteristics of the 280 Perilla accessions, the combinations of PA and SA (0.794**) and SA and OA (0.724**) showed a particularly high positive correlation coefficients compare to other combinations. By using an association analysis of the 29 PSMs and the five fatty acids in the 280 Perilla accessions, we found 17 PSMs (KNUPF1, KNUPF2, KNUPF4, KNUPF10, KNUPF16, KNUPF25, KNUPF26, KNUPF28, KNUPF37, KNUPF55, KNUPF62, KNUPF71, KNUPF74, KNUPF77, KNUPF85, KNUPF89, and KNUPF118) associated with the content of the five fatty acid components and two seed characteristics. CONCLUSIONS These PSMs are considered to be useful molecular markers related to five fatty acid components and two seed characteristics for selecting accessions from the germplasm accessions of the Perilla crop and their related weedy types through association mapping analysis and marker-assisted selection (MAS) breeding programs.

Abstract
Perilla seed oil has been attracting attention in South Korea as a health food. Five fatty acids of 100 Perilla accessions were identified as follows: palmitic acid (PA) (5.10-9.13%), stearic acid (SA) (1.70-3.99%), oleic acid (OA) (11.1-21.9%), linoleic acid (LA) (10.2-23.4%), and linolenic acid (LNA) (54.3-75.4%). Additionally, the 100 Perilla accessions were divided into two groups (high or low) based on the total fatty acid content (TFAC). By using an association analysis of 40 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers and the six Perilla seed oil traits in the 100 Perilla accessions, we detected four SSR markers associated with TFAC, five SSR markers associated with LNA, one SSR marker associated with LA, two SSR markers each associated with OA and PA, and four SSR markers associated with SA. Among these SSR markers, four SSR markers (KNUPF14, KNUPF62, KNUPF72, KNUPF85) were all associated with TFAC and LNA. Moreover, two SSR markers (KNUPF62, KNUPF85) were both associated with TFAC, LNA, and OA. Therefore, these SSR markers are considered to be useful molecular markers for selecting useful accessions related to fatty acid contents in Perilla germplasm and for improving the seed oil quality of Perilla crop through marker-assisted selection (MAS) breeding programs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bulk segregant analysis (BSA) is another method of identifying significant molecular markers linked to the target gene or region for specific traits. BSA is easier and less expensive than other methods; it does not require genetic map construction and needs fewer markers than the number needed to construct a genetic map for QTL mapping. OBJECTIVES The purpose of our study was to identify simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers linked with leaf- and seed-related traits in Perilla crop, and to allow the selection of better accessions in Perilla breeding programs with marker-assisted selection (MAS). METHODS The genotypes of the 25 SSR markers and phenotypic data for the eight qualitative traits were used to confirm significant marker-trait associations (SMTAs) using TASSEL software. To detect SSR markers associated with leaf color, the 16 individuals of the F3 population were divided into three bulk groups based on the colors of the surface and reverse sides of the leaf, respectively: six in the green/green group, five in the green/purple group and five in the purple/purple group. RESULTS This study detected 18 significant marker-trait associations (SMTAs) involving 12 SSR markers associated with six agronomic traits. The SSR markers KNUPF15, KNUPF21, KNUPF29, and KNUPF60 were associated with leaf surface color, and KNUPF11, KNUPF15, KNUPF21, and KNUPF60 were associated with leaf reverse side color. In addition, five SSR markers were associated with seed-related traits. KNUPF11 and KNUPF29 were associated with seed coat color, while KNUPF29 was associated with seed size. KNUPF12, KNUPF16, and KNUPF42 were associated with seed hardness. To verify the selected significant SSR markers associated with leaf color and seed-related traits, a UPGMA dendrogram for 11 individuals in the F3 population, which formed two bulk groups consisting of 6 green/green and 5 purple/purple individuals, was constructed using six SSR marker-related LC and RLC traits. CONCLUSION These results are very important for understanding the characteristics of Perilla leaves and seeds; they may also support opportunities to effectively preserve and utilize existing accessions and to allow Perilla breeders to improve crop quality by mean of MAS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Association mapping has been advocated as the method of choice for identifying loci involved in the inheritance of complex traits in crop species. This method involves identifying markers with significant differences in allele frequency between individuals with a phenotype of interest and a set of unrelated control individuals. OBJECTIVE The purpose of our study is not only to investigate the genetic diversity and relationships of the basic molecular markers of near-isogenic lines (NILs) of waxy maize, but it is also to identify molecular markers related to interesting seed characteristics including 4 seed quantity traits and 4 seed phenotypic traits using association analysis with population structure. METHODS We performed association mapping of 200 SSR markers and 8 seed characteristics among 10 NILs of waxy maize and two parental lines (HW3, HW9) (recurrent parent) of "Mibaek 2" variety. RESULTS In population structure and cluster analysis, the 10 NILs and two parental lines were divided into two groups. Seven inbred lines, including HW3, were assigned to Group I. Group II contained 5 inbred lines, including HW9. In addition, we found that 32 SSR markers associate with 8 seed characteristics in 10 NILs. In particular, five SSR markers (umc1986, umc1747, umc2275, phi078, umc1366) were together associated with more than one seed characteristics such as EL, 100 KW, SCC, R, L*, and V. CONCLUSION This study demonstrated the utility of SSR analysis for studying GD, population structure, and association mapping in 10 NILs and two parental lines (HW3, HW9) of "Mibaek 2" variety.

Identifying SSR markers associated with seed characteristics in Perilla ( Perilla frutescens L.). PHYSIOLOGY AND MOLECULAR BIOLOGY OF PLANTS : AN INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF FUNCTIONAL PLANT BIOLOGY 2021; 27:93-105.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Substantial differences exist in seed dormancy between cultivated crops and their wild progenitors. The purpose of this study was to identify simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers associated with seed characteristics in cultivated and weedy types of Perilla crop. By using an association analysis of 29 SSR markers and three seed traits in 38 Perilla accessions, we detected six SSR markers associated with the seed germination rate (SGR), eight SSR markers associated with seed hardness (SH), and seven SSR markers associated with seed size (SS). Among these SSR markers, three (KNUPF3, KNUPF25, KNUPF60) were associated with the SGR, SH, and SS traits. Correlation analysis among the three seed traits of the 38 Perilla accessions showed a positive correlation coefficient for the combination of SGR and SS (0.811**) and a negative correlation coefficient for the combinations of SGR and SH (- 0.706**), and SS and SH (- 0.899**). A phylogenetic tree constructed using the unweighted pair group method with arithmetic mean (UPGMA) revealed that accessions of cultivated P. frutescens var. frutescens could be distinguished from weedy accessions of P. frutescens var. frutescens and P. frutescens var. crispa using the 29 SSR markers. Selected SSR markers related to the three seed traits distinguished accessions of cultivated and weedy types.

The comparative gene expression concern to the seed pigmentation in maize (Zea mays L.). Genomics Inform 2020; 18:e29. [PMID: 33017873 PMCID: PMC7560445 DOI: 10.5808/gi.2020.18.3.e29] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/06/2020] [Accepted: 07/20/2020] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Maize seed pigmentation is one of the important issue to develop maize seed breeding. The differently gene expression was characterized and compared for three inbred lines, such as the pigment accumulated seed (CM22) and non-pigmented seed (CM5 and CM19) at 10 days after pollination. We obtained a total of 63,870, 82,496, and 54,555 contigs by de novo assembly to identify gene expression in the CM22, CM5, and CM19, respectably. In differentially expressed gene analysis, it was revealed that 7,044 genes were differentially expressed by at least two-fold, with 4,067 upregulated in colored maize inbred lines and 2,977 upregulated in colorless maize inbred lines. Of them,18 genes were included to the anthocyanin biosynthesis pathways, while 15 genes were upregulated in both CM22/5 and CM22/19. Additionally, 37 genes were detected in the metabolic pathway concern to the seed pigmentation by BINs analysis using MAPMAN software. Finally, these differently expressed genes may aid in the research on seed pigmentation in maize breeding programs.

Genetic differentiation of Mutator insertion polymorphisms and association with agronomic traits in waxy and common maize. Genes Genomics 2020; 42:631-638. [PMID: 32277363 DOI: 10.1007/s13258-020-00928-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/30/2019] [Accepted: 03/27/2020] [Indexed: 10/24/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND As waxy maize is considered a key economic crop in Korea, an understanding of its genetic variation and differentiation is fundamental for the selective plant breeding. The maize genome is primarily composed of transposable elements, for which large and stable insertions generate variations that reflect selection during evolution. OBJECTIVES This study was to elucidate the genetic diversity based on the contribution of TEs and to investigate the effect of Mu transposition on the genetic divergence of waxy and common maize. We also performed an association analysis on these inbred lines to determine the Mu insertions associated with agronomic traits. METHODS In this study, we utilized a Mutator-based transposon display method to study the genetic diversity and population structure of 40 waxy and 40 common inbred lines of maize in the Gangwon Agricultural Research and Extension Services collection at the Maize Research Institute. RESULTS We detected polymorphisms in 86.33% of 278 Mutator (Mu) anchored loci, reflecting the activity of the Mu element and its contribution to genetic variation. Common maize showed a substantial amount of genetic diversity, which was greater than that observed in waxy maize. Principal-coordinate and neighbor-joining cluster analyzes consistently supported the presence of two genetically distinct groups. However, the distribution of genetic variation within the populations was much higher than the genetic differentiation among the populations. To explore the contribution of the Mu element to phenotypic variation, we analyzed the associations with ten important agronomical traits. On the basis of the combined results from two models (QGLM and Q + KLM), we found significant associations between seven Mu loci and four different traits. CONCLUSIONS These results will assist waxy maize breeders in choosing parental lines and be useful for marker-assisted selection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Perilla frutescens (L.) Britt. is divided into two varieties based on morphology and use. One is P. frutescens var. frutescens, which is used both as a leafy vegetable and as an oil obtained from the seeds. The other variety is P. frutescens var. crispa, a Chinese medicine or spice vegetable crop. In addition, weedy types of var. frutescens and var. crispa are occasionally grown as relict forms and are easy to find on roadsides, in waste areas and around farmers' fields or farmhouses. SSR markers have been successfully used to examine the genetic diversity and relationships of cultivated and weedy types of Perilla in many regions. OBJECTIVES In this study, we used 25 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers were used to assess the genetic diversity and population structure of 90 Perilla accessions from Korea and China. METHODS A total of 90 accessions of Perilla were collected in Korea and China included 45 accessions from each of Korea and China. We selected 25 SSR markers representing the polymorphism of and adequately amplifying all the Perilla accessions. RESULTS A total of 153 alleles were identified, with an average of 6.12 alleles per locus. The GD level and PIC value for cultivated and weedy types of P. frutescens from China were higher than those for accessions from Korea. Weedy accessions had higher GD and PIC values than cultivated accessions. In the population structure analysis using the model-based method, the 90 Perilla accessions were divided into two main group and an admixed group based on a membership probability threshold of 0.8. Based on the distance-based unweighted pair group method with the arithmetic mean (UPGMA), all accessions were classified into four major groups with a genetic similarity of 32.8%. CONCLUSION Finally, the findings of this study will provide useful theoretical knowledge for further study of the population structure and genetic diversity of Perilla species and benefit Perilla crop breeding and germplasm conservation in Korea and China.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In this study, we used phenotypic and genetic analysis to investigate Double haploid (DH) lines derived from normal corn parents (HF1 and 11S6169). DH technology offers an array of advantages in maize genetics and breeding as follows: first, it significantly shortens the breeding cycle by development of completely homozygous lines in two or three generations; and second, it simplifies logistics, including requiring less time, labor, and financial resources for developing new DH lines compared with the conventional RIL population development process. OBJECTIVES In our study, we constructed a maize genetic linkage map using SSR markers and a DH population derived from a cross of normal corn (HF1) and normal corn (11S6169). METHODS The DH population used in this study was developed by the following methods: we crossed normal corn (HF1) and normal corn (11S6169), which are parent lines of a normal corn cultivar, in 2014; and the next year, the F1 hybrids were crossed with a tropicalized haploid inducer line (TAIL), which is homozygous for the dominant marker gene R1-nj (Nanda and Chase in Crop Sci 6:213-215, 1966), and we harvested seeds of the haploid lines. RESULTS A total of 200 SSR markers were assigned to 10 linkage groups that spanned 1145.4 cM with an average genetic distance between markers of 5.7 cM. 68 SSR markers showed Mendelian segregation ratios in the DH population at a 5% significance threshold. A total of 15 quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for plant height (PH), ear height (EH), ear height ratio (ER), leaf length (LL), ear length (EL), set ear length (SEL), set ear ratio (SER), ear width (EW), 100 kernel weight (100 KW), and cob color (CC) were found in the 121 lines in the DH population. CONCLUSION The results of this study may help to improve the detection and characterization of agronomic traits and provide great opportunities for maize breeders and researchers using a DH population in maize breeding programs.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Identification of genetic variation is an essential ability for the long-term success of breeding programs and maximizes the use of germplasm resources. In East Asia, China has a long history of the cultivation of Perilla crop, but there has been little research on the genetic diversity and genetic relationships among accessions of Perilla crop and their weedy types. OBJECTIVES To better understand the genetic variations of the cultivated and weedy types of Perilla crop in China, the 91 accessions were evaluated for genetic diversity by 21 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. METHODS SSR amplifications were conducted in a total volume of 20 µL, consisting of 20 ng genomic DNA, 1X PCR buffer, 0.5 µM forward and reverse primers, 0.2 mM dNTPs, and 1 U Taq polymerase. Power Marker version 3.25 was applied to obtain the information on the number of alleles, allele frequency, major allele frequency, gene diversity (GD), and polymorphic information content (PIC). The similarity matrix was used to construct an unweighted pair group method with arithmetic mean dendrogram by the application of SAHN-Clustering from NTSYS-pc.V.2.1. RESULTS A total of 147 alleles were identified with an average of 7 alleles per locus. The average values of PIC and GD were 0.577 and 0.537, respectively. The genetic diversity level of accessions from Northern China was lower than accessions from Southern China. The genetic diversity level and PIC values for accessions of var. crispa were the highest. For accessions of cultivated var. frutescens, genetic diversity in Southern China was higher than that in Northern China. CONCLUSION Most cultivated Perilla accessions were clearly separated from weedy Perilla accessions, but there was no clear geographic structure between cultivated Perilla crop and weedy types based on their regional distribution. This study demonstrated the utility of SSR analysis for performing genetic and population analysis of cultivated and weedy types of Perilla accessions in China.

Abstract
Transposable elements (TEs), are a rich source for molecular marker development as they constitute a significant fraction of the eukaryotic genome and impact the overall genome structure. Here, we utilize Mutator-based transposon display (Mu-TD), and CACTA-derived sequence-characterized amplified regions (SCAR) anchored by simple sequence repeats and single nucleotide polymorphisms to locate quantitative trait loci (QTLs) linked to agriculturally important traits on a genetic map. Specifically, we studied recombinant inbred line populations derived from a cross between dent corn and waxy corn. The resulting linkage map included 259 Mu-anchored fragments, 34 SCARs, and 614 SSR markers distributed throughout the ten maize chromosomes. Linkage analysis revealed three SNP loci associated with kernel starch synthesis genes (sh2, su1, wx1) linked to either Mu-TD loci or SSR markers, which may be useful for maize breeding programs. In addition, we used QTL analysis to determine the chromosomal location of traits related to grain yield and kernel quality. We identified 24 QTLs associated with nine traits located on nine out of ten maize chromosomes. Among these, 13 QTLs involved Mu loci and two involved SCARs. This study demonstrates the potential use of DNA transposon-based markers to construct linkage maps and identify QTLs linked to agronomic traits.

Abstract
SSRs were successfully isolated from the Perilla crop in our current study, and used to analyze Perilla accessions from East Asia. Analyses of the clear genetic diversity and relationship for Perilla crop still remain insufficient. In this study, 40 new simple sequence repeat (SSR) primer sets were developed from RNA sequences using transcriptome analysis. These new SSR markers were applied to analyze the diversity, relationships, and population structure among 35 accessions of the two cultivated types of Perilla crop and their weedy types. A total of 220 alleles were identified at all loci, with an average of 5.5 alleles per locus and a range between 2 and 10 alleles per locus. The MAF (major allele frequency) per locus varied from 0.229 to 0.943, with an average of 0.466. The average polymorphic information content (PIC) value was 0.603, ranging from 0.102 to 0.837. The genetic diversity (GD) ranged from 0.108 to 0.854, with an average of 0.654. Based on population structure analysis, all accessions were divided into three groups: Group I, Group II and the admixed group. This study demonstrated the utility of new SSR analysis for the study of genetic diversity and population structure among 35 Perilla accessions. The GD of each locus for accessions of cultivated var. frutescens, weedy var. frutescens, cultivated var. crispa, and weedy var. crispa were 0.415, 0.606, 0.308, and 0.480, respectively. Both weedy accessions exhibited higher GD and PIC values than their cultivated types in East Asia. The new SSR primers of Perilla species reported in this study may provide potential genetic markers for population genetics to enhance our understanding of the genetic diversity, genetic relationship and population structure of the cultivated and weedy types of P. frutescens in East Asia. In addition, new Perilla SSR primers developed from RNA-seq can be used in the future for cultivar identification, conservation of Perilla germplasm resources, genome mapping and tagging of important genes/QTLs for Perilla breeding programs.

Abstract
In this study, 21 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers were used to evaluate the genetic diversity and population structure among 77 Perilla accessions from high-latitude and middle-latitude areas of China. Ninety-five alleles were identified with an average of 4.52 alleles per locus. The average polymorphic information content (PIC) and genetic diversity values were 0.346 and 0.372, respectively. The level of genetic diversity and PIC value for cultivated accessions of Perilla frutescens var. frutescens from middle-latitude areas were higher than accessions from high-latitude areas. Based on the dendrogram of unweighted pair group method with arithmetic mean (UPGMA), all accessions were classified into four major groups with a genetic similarity of 46%. All accessions of the cultivated var. frutescens were discriminated from the cultivated P. frutescens var. crispa. Furthermore, most accessions of the cultivated var. frutescens collected in high-latitude and middle-latitude areas were distinguished depending on their geographical location. However, the geographical locations of several accessions of the cultivated var. frutescens have no relation with their positions in the UPGMA dendrogram and population structure. This result implies that the diffusion of accessions of the cultivated Perilla crop in the northern areas of China might be through multiple routes. On the population structure analysis, 77 Perilla accessions were divided into Group I, Group II, and an admixed group based on a membership probability threshold of 0.8. Finally, the findings in this study can provide useful theoretical knowledge for further study on the population structure and genetic diversity of Perilla and benefit for Perilla crop breeding and germplasm conservation.

Abstract
We observed 3 types of non-parental banding patterns using simple-sequence repeat primers in a recombinant inbred line maize population developed from 2 inbred lines, Mo17 and KW7. We observed alleles that were not present in either of the parents, known as non-parental alleles. Although non-parental alleles are a consequence of genetic variation, they are less common in progenies derived from inbred lines. Generally, when non-parental alleles are encountered during genotyping analysis, they are either deleted from the analysis or considered to be missing data. However, before making a decision regarding how to treat non-parental alleles, it is important to understand the mechanism through which they form. There are a variety of potential reasons for the formation of non-parental bands, including recombination or mutation in the simple-sequence repeat region, residual heterozygosity in parental lines, or chromosomal aberrations resulting from rearrangements and transposons. In this article, we discuss the potential reasons behind the formation of the non-parental alleles observed in our data.

Abstract
Perilla frutescens (L.) Britt. is a self-pollinating annual species and is widely cultivated in China, Korea and Japan as an economic crop and a source of medicine and spices. In this study, we sequenced one cultivar variety (PF98095) of P. frutescens (L.) var. frutescens Britt., which was assembled as reference and other three varieties (PF11109, weedy of var. frutescens, PF06336 and PF06353, cultivars of varieties crispa) in order to carry out comparative expression profiling within cultivar and weedy in varieties frutescens and between varieties frutescens and varieties crispa of cultivar type in P. frutescens. Assembly of PF98095, annotation mapping, DEG (differentially expressed gene) profiling, and comparative analysis were performed. We found that more than 65% of the reads were mapped to the reference of P. frutescens gene set. Moreover, we detected 22,962 DEGs in the weedy variety compared to the cultivar, and also, 22,138 and 23,845 DEGs were identified in two cultivars according to the reference, respectively. The DEGs and functional classification were developed to analyze the differences between weedy and cultivar and between varieties frutescens and varieties crispa of Perilla. Furthermore, candidate genes for the different color and seed size of Perilla were identified that could be further investigated in future study. The herein results may play a significant role, and contribute in functional transcriptome studies of Perilla.

Abstract
In order to identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) for the eating quality of waxy corn and sweet corn (Zea mays L.), QTL analysis was conducted on an F2 population derived from a cross between a waxy corn inbred line and a sweet corn inbred line. Ten QTLs for pericarp thickness (PER), amylose content (AMY), dextrose content (DEX) and sucrose content (SUC) were found in the 158 F2 families. Among them, four QTLs, qAMY4 (10.43%), qAMY9 (19.33%), qDEX4 (21.31%) and qSUC4 (30.71%), may be considered as major QTLs. Three of these, qAMY4, qDEX4 and qSUC4, were found to be located within a region flanked by two adjacent SSR markers on chromosome 4 (umc1088 and bnlg1265), making this SSR marker pair a useful selection tool for screening the eating quality traits of AMY, DEX and SUC. The QTL for amylose content was found to be located between markers phi027 and umc1634, raising the possibility of its identity being the Wx1 gene, which encodes a granule-bound amylose synthase. The new QTLs identified by the present study could serve as useful molecular markers for selecting important eating quality traits in subsequent waxy corn breeding studies.
