چکیده
Varietal single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are the differences within one of the two subgenomes between different tetraploid cotton varieties and have not been practically used in cotton genetics and breeding because they are difficult to identify due to low genetic diversity and very high sequence identity between homeologous genes in cotton. We have used transcriptome and restriction site-associated DNA sequencing to identify varietal SNPs among 18 G. hirsutum varieties based on the rationale that varietal SNPs can be more confidently called when flanked by subgenome-specific SNPs. Using transcriptome data, we successfully identified 37,413 varietal SNPs and, of these, 22,121 did not have an additional varietal SNP within their 20-bp flanking regions so can be used in most SNP genotyping assays. From restriction site-associated DNA sequencing data, we identified an additional 3090 varietal SNPs between two of the varieties. Of the 1583 successful SNP assays achieved using different genotyping platforms, 1363 were verified. Many of the SNPs behaved as dominant markers because of coamplification from homeologous loci, but the number of SNPs acting as codominant markers increased when one or more subgenome-specific SNP(s) were incorporated in their assay primers, giving them greater utility for breeding applications. A G. hirsutum genetic map with 1244 SNP markers was constructed covering 5557.42 centiMorgan and used to map qualitative and quantitative traits. This collection of G. hirsutum varietal SNPs complements existing intra-specific SNPs and provides the cotton community with a valuable marker resource applicable to genetic analyses and breeding programs.

Homoeologous nonreciprocal recombination in polyploid cotton.
Polyploid formation and processes that create partial genomic duplication generate redundant genomic information, whose fate is of particular interest to evolutionary biologists. Different processes can lead to diversification among duplicate genes, which may be counterbalanced by mechanisms that retard divergence, including gene conversion via nonreciprocal homoeologous exchange. Here, we used...
متن کاملRNA-Seq-Mediated Transcriptome Analysis of a Fiberless Mutant Cotton and Its Possible Origin Based on SNP Markers
As the longest known single-celled trichomes, cotton (Gossypium L.) fibers constitute a classic model system to investigate cell initiation and elongation. In this study, we used a high-throughput transcriptome sequencing technology to identify fiber-initiation-related single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers and differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between the wild-type (WT) Upland cotton...

A bacterial artificial chromosome library and BAC-end sequences for cultivated cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) have recently been developed. This report presents genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) mining utilizing resequencing data with BAC-end sequences as a reference by alignment of 12 G. hirsutum L. lines, one G. barbadense L. line, and one G. longicalyx Hutch and Lee line. A to...
متن کاملIDENTIFICATION OF MOLECULAR MARKERS LINKED TO LEAF CURL VIRUS DISEASE RESISTANCE IN COTTON
The identification of molecular markers linked to leaf curl virus (CLCuV) disease resistance in cotton has the potential to improve both the efficiency and the efficacy of selection in cotton breeding programs. Genetic analysis suggested that CLCuV resistance is controlled by a single dominant gene. In this study, an interspecific F2 population derived from a cross of Gossypium barbadense and G...
