ABSTRACT

Triticale (X Triticosecale Wittmack), a wheat-rye small grain crop hybrid, combines wheat and rye attributes in one hexaploid genome. It is characterized by high adaptability to adverse environmental conditions: drought, soil acidity, salinity and heavy metal ions, poorer soil quality, and waterlogging. So that its cultivation is prospective in a changing climate. Here, we describe RGB on-ground phenotyping of field-grown eighteen triticale market-available cultivars, made in naturally changing light conditions, in two consecutive winter cereals growing seasons: 2018-2019 and 2019-2020. The number of ears was counted on top-down images with an accuracy of 95% and mean average precision (mAP) of 0.71 using advanced object detection algorithm YOLOv4, with ensemble modeling of field imaging captured in two different illumination conditions. A correlation between the number of ears and yield was achieved at the statistical importance of 0.16 for data from 2019. Results are discussed from the perspective of modern breeding and phenotyping bottleneck.

ABSTRACT

Increased grain yield (GY) is the primary breeding target of wheat breeders. We performed the genome-wide association study (GWAS) on 168 elite winter wheat lines from an ongoing breeding program to identify the main determinants of grain yield. Sequencing of Diversity Array Technology fragments (DArTseq) resulted in 19,350 single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and presence-absence variation (PAV) markers. We identified 15 main genomic regions located in ten wheat chromosomes (1B, 2B, 2D, 3A, 3D, 5A, 5B, 6A, 6B, and 7B) that explained from 7.9 to 20.3% of the variation in grain yield and 13.3% of the yield stability. Loci identified in the reduced genepool are important for wheat improvement using marker-assisted selection. We found marker-trait associations between three genes involved in starch biosynthesis and grain yield. Two starch synthase genes (TraesCS2B03G1238800 and TraesCS2D03G1048800) and a sucrose synthase gene (TraesCS3D03G0024300) were found in regions of QGy.rut-2B.2, QGy.rut-2D.1, and QGy.rut-3D, respectively. These loci and other significantly associated SNP markers found in this study can be used for pyramiding favorable alleles in high-yielding varieties or to improve the accuracy of prediction in genomic selection.

ABSTRACT

Disclosure of markers that are significantly associated with plant traits can help develop new varieties with desirable properties. This study determined the genome-wide associations based on DArTseq markers for six agronomic traits assessed in eight environments for wheat. Moreover, the association study for heterosis and analysis of the effects of markers grouped by linkage disequilibrium were performed based on mean values over all experiments. All results were validated using data from post-registration trials. GWAS revealed 1273 single nucleotide polymorphisms with biologically significant effects. Most polymorphisms were predicted to be modifiers of protein translation, with only two having a more pronounced effect. Markers significantly associated with the considered set of features were clustered within chromosomes based on linkage disequilibrium in 327 LD blocks. A GWAS for heterosis revealed 1261 markers with significant effects.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: The genetic diversity and gene pool characteristics must be clarified for efficient genome-wide association studies, genomic selection, and hybrid breeding. The aim of this study was to evaluate the genetic structure of 509 wheat accessions representing registered varieties and advanced breeding lines via the high-density genotyping-by-sequencing approach. RESULTS: More than 30% of 13,499 SNP markers representing 2162 clusters were mapped to genes, whereas 22.50% of 26,369 silicoDArT markers overlapped with coding sequences and were linked in 3527 blocks. Regarding hexaploidy, perfect sequence matches following BLAST searches were not sufficient for the unequivocal mapping to unique loci. Moreover, allelic variations in homeologous loci interfered with heterozygosity calculations for some markers. Analyses of the major genetic changes over the last 27 years revealed the selection pressure on orthologs of the gibberellin biosynthesis-related GA2 gene and the senescence-associated SAG12 gene. A core collection representing the wheat population was generated for preserving germplasm and optimizing breeding programs. CONCLUSIONS: Our results confirmed considerable differences among wheat subgenomes A, B and D, with D characterized by the lowest diversity but the highest LD. They revealed genomic regions that have been targeted by breeding.
