ABSTRACT
Abstract Paraburkholderia tropica (syn Burkholderia tropica) are nitrogen-fixing bacteria commonly found in sugarcane. The Paraburkholderia tropica strain Ppe8 is part of the sugarcane inoculant consortium that has a beneficial effect on yield. Here, we report a draft genome sequence of this strain elucidating the mechanisms involved in its interaction mainly with Poaceae. A genome size of approximately 8.75 Mb containing 7844 protein coding genes distributed in 526 subsystems was de novo assembled with ABySS and annotated by RAST. Genes related to the nitrogen fixation process, the secretion systems (I, II, III, IV, and VI), and related to a variety of metabolic traits, such as metabolism of carbohydrates, amino acids, vitamins, and proteins, were detected, suggesting a broad metabolic capacity and possible adaptation to plant association.

A utilização de marcadores moleculares microssatélites ou SSR (Simples Sequência Repetitiva) tem se mostrado uma excelente técnica para identificação de cultivares, análise genealógica e de distância genética entre organismos. O conhecimento da diversidade genética entre grupos de genitores por meio da utilização de marcadores moleculares vem permitindo estabelecer diferenças entre acessos de algodão, facilitando a seleção de genitores a serem empregados em programas de melhoramento. O trabalho teve por objetivo avaliar a diversidade genética entre acessos provenientes do Banco de germoplasma de algodão da Empresa de Pesquisa de Minas Gerais (EPAMIG) por meio de marcadores moleculares SSR. Os 37 oligonucleotídeos da série BNL amplificaram um total de 106 alelos. Uma média de 2,86 alelos por locus foi detectada, com uma média de conteúdo informativo de polimorfismo (PIC) de 0,068. A maior taxa de heterozigosidade (0,15) foi obtida para o acesso Dendera e (0,12) para o acesso Giza 80. As menores taxas de heterozigosidade (0,05) foram observadas para os acessos T-7044 e Coker-310. A partir das estimativas de dissimilaridade de Nei a maior distância genética foi obtida entre os acessos Giza 80 e T-7044 (0,88), e a menor distância (0,042) entre os acessos SL 24-82885 e o T-295. O dendrograma gerado apresentou a formação de nove grupos distintos, sendo os acessos Giza 80 e Dendera os mais divergentes entre os todos os estudados.
The use of microsatellite molecular markers or SRS (Simple Repetitive Sequence) has proved to be an excellent technique for cultivar identification, genealogical analysis and genetic distance between organisms. The knowledge of genetic diversity among groups of parents through the use of molecular markers has allowed establishing differences among accessions of cotton, facilitating the selection of parents to be used in breeding programs. The study aimed to assess the genetic diversity among accessions from the germplasm bank Cotton Research Company of Minas Gerais (EPAMIG) using SRS markers. The 37 primers from BNL series amplified a total of 106 alleles. An average of 2.86 alleles per locus was detected with average polymorphism information content (PIC) of 0.068. The highest rate of heterozygosity (0.15) was obtained for access Dendera and (0.12) for Giza 80. The lowest rates of heterozygosity (0.05) were observed for the accessions Coker T-7044-310. From the Nei ´s dissimilarity estimation the largest genetic distance was observed between Giza 80 and T-7044 (0.88), and the shortest distance (0.042) between accessions 24-82885 SL and T-295. The dendrogram generated showed the formation of nine distinct groups, accesses Giza 80 and Dendera were the most divergent among all studied.
