Soil and water salinity is one of the major abiotic stresses that reduce growth productivity in food crops including rice. The lack congruence salt tolerance quantitative trait loci (QTLs) multiple genetic backgrounds environments a hindrance for undertaking marker-assisted selection (MAS). A genome-wide meta-analysis QTLs controlling seedling-stage was conducted rice using QTL information from 12 studies. Using consensus map, 11 meta-QTLs three traits with smaller confidence intervals were...
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are increasingly becoming the DNA marker system of choice due to their prevalence in genome and ability be used highly multiplexed genotyping assays. Although needed high numbers for genome-wide profiles genomics-assisted breeding, a surprisingly low number validated SNPs currently available perennial ryegrass. A ryegrass unigene set representing 9,399 genes was as reference assembly 802,156 quality reads generated by 454 transcriptome sequencing silico...
Abstract Background Perennial ryegrass ( Lolium perenne L.) is one of the most important forage and turf grass species temperate regions worldwide. Its mitochondrial genome inherited maternally contains genes that can influence traits agricultural importance. Moreover, DNA sequence genomes has been established compared for a large number in order to characterize evolutionary relationships. Therefore, it crucial understand organization how varies between within species. Here, we report first...
Abstract Hybrid breeding can exploit heterosis and thus offers opportunities to maximize yield, quality resistance traits in crop species. Cytoplasmic male sterility ( CMS ) is a widely applied tool for efficient hybrid seed production. Encoded the mitochondrial genome, maternally inherited, thus, it be challenging apply schemes of allogamous self‐incompatible plant species, such as perennial ryegrass. Starting with general introduction origin function mitochondria plants, this review...
Isolation of good quality chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) is a challenge in different plant species, although several methods for isolation are known. Attempts were undertaken to isolate cpDNA from Festuca grass species by using available standard protocols; however, they failed due difficulties separating intact chloroplasts the polysaccharides, oleoresin, and contaminated nuclear that present crude homogenate. In this study, we quick inexpensive protocol isolating seven varieties/accessions five...
Tall fescue is one of the primary sources forage for livestock. It grows well in marginal soils temperate zones. hosts a fungal endophyte (Epichloë coenophiala), which helps plants to tolerate abiotic and biotic stresses. The genomic transcriptomic resources tall are very limited, due complex genetic background outbreeding modes pollination. aim this study was identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) two tissues (pseudostem leaf blade) between novel positive (E+) endophyte-free (E-)...
Abstract Background: Tall fescue ( Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) is an important cool-season perennial grass species. Hexaploid tall has three distinct morphotypes used either as forage or turf purposes. Its chloroplast genome conserved due to maternally inherited the next generation progenies. To identify morphotype-specific DNA markers and genetic variations, plastid genomes of all morphotypes, i.e., Continental cv. Texoma MaxQ II, rhizomatous Torpedo, Mediterranean Resolute have been...
