Aestivum) written by Junli Zhang (Doctoral student) and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grain yield (GY) is always the first priority in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) breeding; however, progress in improvement of this trait is hampered due to quantitative inheritance, low heritability, and confounding environmental effects. Thanks to the advancements of high throughput genotyping and phenotyping technologies, both molecular markers and physiological traits are now promising indirect selection tools in breeding for this trait and other traits. Besides grain yield, grain quality is another important respect in wheat breeding, and one of the quality traits is the Hagberg falling number (FN), which is commonly used in grain grading. The FN test has a genetic component but is also strongly influenced by environmental conditions during the reproductive growth stage, including excessive moisture, extreme temperature, and biotic and abiotic stresses. The objective of the current studies was to identify potential genomic regions and molecular markers that influence GY, three important physiological traits (canopy temperature, CT; chlorophyll content index, CCI; flag leaf senescence, FLS) that could impact grain yield during heat and moisture stress, and FN by QTL mapping approaches. A winter wheat population of 159 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) from the cross of ID0444 and Rio Blanco were used to map QTL for GY, CT, CCI and FLS, and a total of 110 hard white spring (HWS) wheat accessions from the National Small Grain Collection (NSGC) were used in genome-wide association mapping of FN. GY was evaluated under three field conditions, rainfed, terminal drought (water stress applied after anthesis), and fully irrigated, with a total of six location-year environments. QTL mapping was conducted for main effect (G) of GY, and the genotype x environment interaction (GEI) effect of GY. A total of 17 QTL were associated with G and 13 QTL associated with GEI, and nine of 13 QTL for GEI were mapped in the flanking chromosomal regions of QTL for GEI. One QTL, Q.Gy.ui-1B.2 found on chromosome 1B, was associated with GY in all six individual environments. Significant QTL x environment interaction (QEI), QTL x QTL interaction (QQI) and QTL x QTL x environment (QQEI) were also identified. The present study showed that the QEI and QQI were as important as the QTL main effect of GY, and they should be taken into consideration in future QTL studies and marker-assisted selection (MAS). The three physiological traits, CT, CCI and FLS, which have been reported to be closely related to grain yield of wheat in diverse environments, were evaluated in two terminal drought and one rainfed environments in southeastern Idaho. Correlation results showed that CT and FLS were highly correlated with GY but the relationship between CCI and GY varied among the three environments. FLS was closely related to heading date (HD) and its effect on grain yield might be determined by HD in the RIL population used in the study. Stepwise multiple regression showed that CT and FLS could predict grain yield effectively and could be used as indirect selection criteria in wheat breeding. A total of 27 main effect QTL (M-QTL) were identified on 12 chromosomes, explaining 5 to 14% of phenotypic variation. Seven epistatic QTL (E-QTL) were identified for FLS and CCI and these could explain 9-25% of the phenotypic variation, but most of them did not have a main effect. Most of the QTL were reported for the first time. FN tests were conducted using grain flour samples from the 110 HWS wheat accessions grown in five environments. A total of 1,740 SNP markers were used to detect SNP-FN associations using both general linear model (GLM) and mixed linear model (MLM). A total of 13 QTL located in nine chromosomal regions were identified in both GLM and MLM approaches. These new QTL have the potential to increase the selection efficiency for wheat breeding, and can be further explored to identify candidate genes.

This book was released on 2020-12-17 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: World population is growing at an alarming rate and may exceed 9.7 billion by 2050, whereas agricultural productivity has been negatively affected due to yield limiting factors such as biotic and abiotic stresses as a result of global climate change. Wheat is a staple crop for ~20% of the world population and its yield needs be augmented correspondingly in order to satisfy the demands of our increasing world population. “Green revolution”, the introduction of semi-dwarf, high yielding wheat varieties along with improved agronomic management practices, gave rise to a substantial increase in wheat production and self-sufficiency in developing countries that include Mexico, India and other south Asian countries. Since the late 1980’s, however, wheat yield is at a standoff with little fluctuation. The current trend is thus insufficient to meet the demands of an increasing world population. Therefore, while conventional breeding has had a great impact on wheat yield, with climate change becoming a reality, newer molecular breeding and management tools are needed to meet the goal of improving wheat yield for the future. With the advance in our understanding of the wheat genome and more importantly, the role of environmental interactions on productivity, the idea of genomic selection has been proposed to select for multi-genic quantitative traits early in the breeding cycle. Accordingly genomic selection may remodel wheat breeding with gain that is predicted to be 3 to 5 times that of crossbreeding. Phenomics (high-throughput phenotyping) is another fairly recent advancement using contemporary sensors for wheat germplasm screening and as a selection tool. Lastly, CRISPR/Cas9 ribonucleoprotein mediated genome editing technology has been successfully utilized for efficient and specific genome editing of hexaploid bread wheat. In summary, there has been exciting progresses in the development of non-GM wheat plants resistant to biotic and abiotic stress and/or wheat with improved nutritional quality. We believe it is important to highlight these novel research accomplishments for a broader audience, with the hope that our readers will ultimately adopt these powerful technologies for crops improvement in order to meet the demands of an expanding world population.

Ciechanowska and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marker-assisted selection requires the identification of molecular markers associated with major genes and quantitative trait loci (QTL) using linkage analysis. In this study, we used 167 doubled haploid (DH) lines derived from two unregistered spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) parental lines that belong to the Canada Western Special Purpose (CWSP) class to map QTLs associated with five traits using inclusive composite interval mapping (ICIM). Using ICIM, least square means phenotype data across 3-4 environments, and a genetic map of 2,676 SNPs out of the wheat 90K SNP array, we identified ten QTLs associated with maturity (4A and 5B), plant lodging (4B, 5A, 5D, and 7D), grain yield (2D), leaf rust (4A) and stem rust (1A and 2B). Each QTL individually accounted for 6.0-22.3% of the phenotypic variance and together accounted for 8.6-38.2% of each trait. QTLs identified for rusts using ICIM had a minor effect (6.0-9.0%) or a major effect (22.3%). Our major effect QTL at 22.3% was discovered on chromosome 2B and contributed to stem rust response. Its physical location has been associated with disease response in previous studies. Results from this study provide additional valuable information to wheat researchers, in particular that the area on chromosome 2B should be considered for future analyses.

Download or read book Impact of the D Genome and Quantitative Trait Loci on Quantitative Traits in a Spring Bread Wheat by Spring Durum Wheat Cross written by Jay Robert Kalous and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Desirable agronomic traits are similar for common hexaploid (6X) bread wheat (Triticum aestivum, 2n = 6x = 42, genome, AABBDD) and tetraploid (4X) durum wheat (T. turgidum durum, 2n = 4x = 28, genome, AABB). However, bread and durum wheat are genetically isolated from each other due to an unequal number of genomes that cause sterility when crossed. Previous work allowed identification of a 6X and 4X parent that when crossed resulted in a large number of recombinant progeny at both ploidy levels. In this study, interspecific recombinant inbred line populations at both 4X and 6X ploidy with 88 and 117 individuals, respectively, were developed from a cross between Choteau spring wheat (6X) and Mountrail durum wheat (4X). Lines within each population contained a mixture of alleles from each parent for loci in the A and B genomes. The presence of the D genome in the 6X population resulted in increased yield, tiller number, and seed size. The D genome also resulted in a decrease in stem solidness, lower test weight and fewer seed per spike. Similar results were found with a second RIL population containing 152 lines from 18 additional 6X by 4X crosses. Several additional QTL for agronomic and quality traits were identified in both the 4X and 6X populations. Positive durum alleles increasing kernel weight in hexaploids, on chromosomes 3B and 7A may be useful for introgression by bread wheat breeders.

Download or read book Identification of Quantitative Trait Loci Underlying Kernel Extra-softness and Related Traits by Linkage and Association Mapping in Wheat (Triticum Aestivum L.) written by Guomei Wang and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kernel hardness (KHA) is a major factor determining break flour yield (BFY) and end-use quality of common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Within the soft wheat class, genotypes with consistently softer grains than common soft wheat are considered to be 'extra-soft'. In addition, 'extra-soft' wheats have greater BFY than common soft wheat lines. In order to better understand this interrelationship, a set of 164 F6-recombinant inbred lines (RILs) developed from a soft x 'extra-soft' wheat cross was evaluated for KHA, BFY, and other related traits in six field environments. The estimates of broad-sense heritability for KHA and BFY ranged from 0.84 to 0.96 and 0.56 to 0.76, respectively. Significant environmental effects and genotype by environment interactions were detected for all traits evaluated. A comprehensive genetic linkage map was created with 650 molecular markers based on this mapping population. Three chromosome translocations, 1BL. 1RS, 2N^S-2AS. 2AL and 5B:7B, were identified during linkage analysis. A total of 47 quantitative trait loci (QTL) were identified for nine traits including KHA, BFY, bran yield (BRN), unground middling yield (MID), plant height (PHT), days to heading (HDD), thousand-kernel weight (TKW), grain protein content (GPC), and test weight (TWT). The number of QTL per trait ranged from three for MID to nine for GPC. The phenotypic variance explained by individual QTL ranged from 5.8 to 47.6%. Among five QTL identified for KHA, the two most important QTL were located on chromosomes 4DS (Xbarc1118-Rht-D1 interval) and 4BS (Xwmc617-Rht-B1 interval), indicating that the 'extra-soft' characteristic was not controlled by the 5DS Hardness (Ha) locus which encodes the two puroindoline genes pinA and pinB. The co-location of QTL for KHA, BFY, BRN, and MID on 4DS suggested that genetic factors affecting KHA may have a pleiotropic effect on BFY. Two co-located QTL for TWT, TKW and PHT were detected on 4DS and 4BS, and a QTL for HDD was detected on 4DS, indicating that these QTL may represent the consequence of the semi-dwarfing green-revolution genes Rht-D1 and Rht-B1 located on 4DS and 4BS, respectively. Additional analysis suggested that the QTL for KHA on 4DS and 4BS are the effects of genes linked to Rht-D1 and Rht-B1, rather than pleiotropic effects of these genes. Some coincident QTL for the traits that were evaluated represent the interrelationships of phenotypic traits, where both KHA and BFY were associated with HDD and TWT based on path coefficient analysis. Association mapping can be an effective means for identifying, validating, and fine mapping genes and QTL in crop plants. To test this approach, a set of 94 diverse elite wheat lines was phenotyped for five important traits and genotyped with 487 molecular markers. In this study, the marker-trait association analysis showed that the gene pinB (Ha locus) was significantly associated with KHA as it is known to define the difference between soft and hard wheat classes. Additionally, the significant associations of marker XwPt-7187 with KHA, XwPt-1250 and XwPt-4628 with TWT, and Xgwm512 with PHT mark the first report of such associations in these genomic regions. This study, aiming at the genetic dissection of wheat kernel extra-softness and related traits, enhanced our understanding of both genetic control of and environmental effects on these important traits. Path coefficient analysis showed the promise of an alternative phenotypic selection approach that is more cost effective than direct measurement of kernel quality. Three chromosome translocations were discovered and their approximate chromosome break points were located. Numerous QTL were identified for these important traits. The major QTL can serve as a start point for fine mapping that eventually lead to the cloning of the QTL through map-based or candidate gene approach. Association mapping, as an alternate approach and complementary tool to QTL mapping, was demonstrated feasible in wheat for identification of marker-trait associations and cross validation of QTL or genes identified from bi-parent mapping populations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Wheat Improvement, Management, and Utilization book covers some of the most recent research areas that touch on enhancement of wheat productivity. It is obvious that wheat is one of the major staple crops grown globally. This crop has widely been researched on considering that, for instance, it is afflicted by various abiotic and biotic stresses that limit its growth and productivity. Today?s goal of wheat improvement consistently is to develop varieties that are high yielding with good processing and technological qualities, well adapted and tolerant to prevailing biotic and abiotic stresses. Therefore, this is a valuable reference book on wheat improvement, agronomy, and end-use qualities, particularly for those who work in research organizations and higher academic institutions. Moreover, it provides an invaluable resource for readers interested in a quick review of trending topics in wheat.
