Highly parallel SNP genotyping platforms have been developed for some important crop species, but these typically carry a high cost per sample first-time or small-scale users. In contrast, recently by sequencing (GBS) approaches offer highly effective alternative simultaneous discovery and genotyping. the present investigation, we explored use of GBS in soybean. addition to developing novel analysis pipeline call SNPs indels from resulting sequence reads, devised modified library preparation...

Soya bean is a major source of edible oil and protein for human consumption as well animal feed. Understanding the genetic basis different traits in soya will provide important insights improving breeding strategies this crop. A genome-wide association study (GWAS) was conducted to accelerate molecular improvement agronomic bean. genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) approach used dense marker coverage (>47,000 SNPs) panel 304 short-season lines. subset 139 lines, representative diversity among...

Summary The controversy surrounding silicon (Si) benefits and essentiality in plants is exacerbated by the differential ability of species to absorb this element. This property seemingly enhanced carrying specific nodulin 26‐like intrinsic proteins ( NIP s), a subclass aquaporins. In work, our aim was characterize plant aquaporins define features that confer Si permeability. Through comparative analysis 985 25 with differing abilities Si, we were able predict 30 transporters discovered...

SWEET (MtN3_saliva) domain proteins, a recently identified group of efflux transporters, play an indispensable role in sugar efflux, phloem loading, plant-pathogen interaction and reproductive tissue development. The gene family is predominantly studied Arabidopsis members the are being investigated rice. To date, no transcriptome or genomics analysis soybean genes has been reported. In present investigation, we explored evolutionary aspect diverse plant species including primitive single...

Abstract Numerous studies have shown the beneficial effects of silicon (Si) for plant growth, particularly under stress conditions, and hence a detailed understanding mechanisms its uptake, subsequent transport, accumulation in different tissues is important. Here, we provide thorough review our current knowledge how plants benefit from Si supplementation. The molecular involved transport are discussed highlight gaps knowledge, with regards to xylem unloading into heavily silicified cells....

Plant genomes are complex and contain large amounts of repetitive DNA including microsatellites that distributed across entire genomes. Whole genome sequences several monocot dicot plants available in the public domain provide an opportunity to study origin, distribution evolution microsatellites, also facilitate development new molecular markers. In present investigation, a genome-wide analysis microsatellite monocots (Brachypodium, sorghum rice) dicots (Arabidopsis, Medicago Populus) was...

Sclerotinia stem rot (SSR) is one of the most important pests in cool soybean growing regions Northeastern United States and Canada. However, intensity infestations varies considerably from year to according weather conditions, thus making it difficult for breeders select under uniform disease pressure. Selection resistance SSR would be greatly facilitated by use molecular markers. In this work, a collection 130 lines was inoculated using cotton pad method genetically characterized...

Bi-parental mapping populations have been commonly utilized to identify and characterize quantitative trait loci (QTL) controlling resistance soybean cyst nematode (SCN, Heterodera glycines Ichinohe). Although this approach successfully mapped a large number of SCN QTL, it captures only limited allelic diversity that exists in parental lines, also has limitations for genomic resolution. In study, genome-wide association study (GWAS) was performed using diverse set 553 plant introductions...

Sclerotinia stem rot (SSR) is the most important soybean disease in Eastern Canada. The development of resistant cultivars represents cost-effective means limiting impact this disease. In view ensuring durable resistance, it imperative to identify germplasm harbouring different resistance loci and provide breeders with closely linked molecular markers facilitate breeding. With end view, we assessed using a highly reproducible artificial inoculation method on diverse collection 101 lines,...

Understanding the evolution events defining silicon (Si) uptake in plant species is important for efficient exploration of Si-derived benefits. In present study, Si accumulation was studied 456 diverse grown uniform field conditions, and a subset 151 under greenhouse allowing comparison among species. addition, systematic analysis nodulin 26-like intrinsic proteins III (NIP-III), which form channels, performed >1000 to trace their evolutionary path link with accumulation. Significant...
