Rapeseed (Brassica napus), is an important source of edible oil, animal fodder, vegetables, condiments and biodiesel, plays a significant role in securing oil production worldwide. However, countries with comparatively low levels agricultural mechanization, such as China, increasing costs labor inputs are decreasing rapeseed profitability, hence the area under cultivation. If value crops not further increased, growing will continue to decrease, potentially jeopardizing production. Therefore,...
The highly conserved florigen gene FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) functions at the core of flowering pathways. Extensive studies have examined transcriptional regulation FT; however, other layers FT remain unclear. Here, we identified miR5200 a Pooideae-specific microRNA that is expressed in leaves and targets Brachypodium distachyon orthologs for mRNA cleavage. was abundantly plants grown under short-day (SD) conditions but dramatically repressed transferred to long-day (LD) conditions. We also...
Interspecific hybridization is a significant evolutionary force as well powerful method for crop breeding. Partial substitution of the AA subgenome in Brassica napus (A(n) A(n) C(n) ) with rapa (A(r) A(r) genome by two rounds interspecific resulted new introgressed type B. ). In this study, we construct population recombinant inbred lines napus. Microsatellite, intron-based and retrotransposon markers were used to characterize experimental genetic mapping, map comparison specific marker...
Plant non-specific lipid transfer proteins (nsLTPs) constitute large multigene families that possess complex physiological functions, many of which remain unclear. This study isolated and characterized the function a protein gene, BraLTP1 from Brassica rapa, in important oilseed crops napus. encodes predicted secretory protein, little known VI Class nsLTP families. Overexpression BnaLTP1 B. napus caused abnormal green coloration reduced wax deposition on leaves detailed analysis revealed...
Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) are the most abundant and richest form of genomic polymorphism, hence make highly favorable markers for genetic map construction genome-wide association studies. In this study, a total 300 rapeseed accessions (278 representative Chinese germplasm, plus 22 outgroup different origins ecotypes) were collected sequenced using Specific-Locus Amplified Fragment Sequencing (SLAF-seq) technology, obtaining 660.25M reads with an average sequencing depth 6.27 ×...
Abstract Background Oilseed rape is an excellent candidate for phytoremediation of cadmium (Cd) contaminated soils given its advantages high biomass, fast growth, moderate metal accumulation, ease harvesting, and tolerance, but the response pathways in this species ( Brassica napus ) have yet to be fully elucidated. A combined analysis miRNA mRNA expression infer Cd-induced regulation has not been reported B. . Results We characterized concurrent changes profiles roots shoots seedlings after...
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are the most common type of genetic variation. Identification large numbers SNPs is helpful for diversity analysis, map-based cloning, genome-wide association analyses and marker-assisted breeding. Recently, identifying in allopolyploid Brassica napus (rapeseed, canola) by resequencing many accessions has become feasible, due to availability reference genomes rapa (2n = AA) oleracea CC), which progenitor species B. AACC). Although have been released,...
Drought seriously curtails growth, physiology and productivity in rapeseed (Brassica napus). Although drought tolerance is a complex trait, efficient phenotyping genotyping has led to the identification of novel marker-trait associations underlying tolerance. A diverse panel 228 Brassica accessions was phenotyped under normal (without stress) water-stress conditions, simulated by polyethylene glycol (PEG-6000) (15% PEG at seedling stage; stress index (STI) susceptibility (SSI) values were...
Life cycle timing is critical for yield and productivity of Brassica napus (rapeseed) cultivars grown in different environments. To facilitate breeding earliness traits rapeseed, SNP loci underlying candidate genes associated with the initial flowering, maturity final as well flowering period (FP) were investigated two environments a diversity panel comprising 300 B. inbred lines. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) using 201,817 markers previously developed from SLAF-seq (specific locus...
Non-coding RNA (ncRNA) is abundant in plant genomes, but poorly described with unknown functionality most species. Using whole genome sequencing, we identified 1885, 1910 and 1299 lncRNAs 186, 157 161 miRNAs at the level three Brassica species B. napus, oleracea rapa, respectively. The lncRNA sequences were divergent between One quarter of located tandem repeat (TR) region. expression both was strongly biased towards A rather than C subgenome unlike mRNA expression. genic regions had higher...
Abstract DNA ‐based molecular markers play a significant role in gene mapping, genetic diversity analysis, germplasm evaluation and marker‐assisted selection. A combination of desirable marker characteristics such as abundant polymorphism, good stability, ease production high efficiency is difficult to achieve when utilizing traditional systems. Micro RNA s are type endogenous non‐coding prevalent the genomes many organisms. The conservation mi pre‐mi sequences provides an opportunity...
