Rose is the world's most important ornamental plant, with economic, cultural and symbolic value. Roses are cultivated worldwide sold as garden roses, cut flowers potted plants. outbred can have various ploidy levels. Our objectives were to develop a high-quality reference genome sequence for genus Rosa by sequencing doubled haploid, combining long short reads, anchoring high-density genetic map, study structure basis of major traits. We produced haploid rose line ('HapOB') from chinensis...

Cultivated potato is a clonally propagated autotetraploid species with highly heterogeneous genome. Phased assemblies of six cultivars including two chromosome-scale phased genome revealed extensive allelic diversity, altered coding and transcript sequences, preferential allele expression, structural variation that collectively result in complex transcriptome predicted proteome, which are distributed across the homologous chromosomes. Wild contribute to diversity tetraploid cultivars,...

Abstract The creation of genetic linkage maps in polyploid species has been a long-standing problem for which various approaches have proposed. In the case autopolyploids, commonly used simplification is that random bivalents form during meiosis. This leads to relatively straightforward estimation recombination frequencies using maximum likelihood, from map can be derived. However, autopolyploids such as tetraploid potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) may exhibit additional features, double...

It has long been recognised that polyploid species do not always neatly fall into the categories of auto- or allopolyploid, leading to term 'segmental allopolyploid' describe everything in between. The meiotic behaviour such intermediate is fully understood, nor there consensus as how model their inheritance patterns. In this study we used a tetraploid cut rose (Rosa hybrida) population, genotyped using 68K WagRhSNP array, construct an ultra-high-density linkage map all homologous...

The recent completion of the rose genome sequence is not end a process, but rather starting point that opens up whole set new and exciting activities. Next to high-quality other genomic tools have also become available for rose, including transcriptomics data, high-density single-nucleotide polymorphism array software perform linkage quantitative trait locus mapping in polyploids. Rose cultivars are highly heterogeneous diverse. This vast diversity cultivated roses can be explained through...

We constructed the first integrated genetic linkage map in a polysomic hexaploid. This enabled us to estimate inheritance of parental haplotypes offspring and detect multi-allelic QTL. Construction use maps are challenging hexaploids with inheritance. Full integration requires calculations recombination frequency between markers complex segregation types. In addition, detection QTL information on all six alleles at one locus for each individual. describe method that we used construct fully...

Rose morphological traits such as prickles or petal number are influenced by a few key QTL which were detected across different growing environments-necessary for genomics-assisted selection in non-target environments. Rose, one of the world's most-loved and commercially important ornamental plants, is predominantly tetraploid, possessing four rather than two copies each chromosome. This condition complicates genetic analysis, so majority previous studies rose have been performed at diploid...

The investigation of quantitative trait loci (QTL) is an essential component in our understanding how organisms vary phenotypically. However, many important crop species are polyploid (carrying more than two copies each chromosome), requiring specialized tools for such analyses. Moreover, deciphering meiotic processes at higher ploidy levels not straightforward, but necessary to understand the reproductive dynamics these species, or uncover potential barriers their genetic improvement.Here,...

Linkage mapping can help unravel the complexities of polyploid genomes. Here, we integrate haplotype-specific linkage maps in autotetraploid potato and explore possibilities for other species. High-density autopolyploid species has become possible recent years given increasing number molecular markers now available through modern genotyping platforms. Such along with larger experimental populations are needed before obtain sufficient accuracy to make marker-trait association studies useful...

Linkage mapping is an approach to order markers based on recombination events. Mapping algorithms cannot easily handle genotyping errors, which are common in high-throughput data. To solve this issue, strategies have been developed, aimed mostly at identifying and eliminating these errors. One such strategy SMOOTH, iterative algorithm detect Unlike other approaches, SMOOTH can also be used impute the most probable alternative genotypes, but its application limited diploid species...
