RESUMO

Genetic linkage maps have the potential to facilitate the genetic dissection of complex traits and comparative analyses of genome structure, as well as molecular breeding efforts in species of agronomic importance. Until recently, the majority of such maps was based on relatively low-throughput marker technologies, which limited marker density across the genome. The availability of high-throughput genotyping technologies has, however, made possible the efficient development of high-density genetic maps. Here, we describe the analysis and integration of genotypic data from four sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) mapping populations to produce a consensus linkage map of the sunflower genome. Although the individual maps (which contained 3500-5500 loci each) were highly colinear, we observed localized variation in recombination rates in several genomic regions. We also observed several gaps up to 26 cM in length that completely lacked mappable markers in individual crosses, presumably due to regions of identity by descent in the mapping parents. Because these regions differed by cross, the consensus map of 10,080 loci contained no such gaps, clearly illustrating the value of simultaneously analyzing multiple mapping populations.

RESUMO

The discovery of unbranched, monocephalic natural variants was pivotal for the domestication of sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.). The branching locus (B), one of several loci apparently targeted by aboriginal selection for monocephaly, pleiotropically affects plant, seed and capitula morphology and, when segregating, confounds the discovery of favorable alleles for seed yield and other traits. The present study was undertaken to gain deeper insights into the genetics of branching and seed traits affected by branching. We produced an unbranched hybrid testcross recombinant inbred line (TC-RIL) population by crossing branched (bb) and unbranched (BB) RILs to an unbranched (BB) tester. The elimination of branching concomitantly eliminated a cluster of B-linked seed trait quantitative trait loci (QTL) identified by RIL per se testing. We identified a seed oil content QTL linked in repulsion and a 100-seed weight QTL linked in coupling to the B locus and additional unlinked QTL, previously masked by B-locus pleiotropy. Genomic segments flanking the B locus harbor multiple loci for domestication and post-domestication traits, the effects of which are masked by B-locus pleiotropy in populations segregating for branching and can only be disentangled by genetic analyses in unbranched populations. QTL analyses of NILs carrying wild B alleles substantiated the pleiotropic effects of the B locus. The effect of the B locus on branching was masked by the effects of wild alleles at independent branching loci in hybrids between monocephalic domesticated lines and polycephalic wild ecotypes; hence, the B locus appears to be necessary, but not sufficient, for monocephaly in domesticated sunflower.

RESUMO

*Introgression of cultivar alleles into wild plant populations via crop-wild hybridization is primarily governed by their fitness effects as well as those of linked loci. The fitness of crop-wild hybrids is often dependent on environmental factors, but less is understood about how aspects of the environment affect individual cultivar alleles. *This study investigated the effects of naturally occurring herbivory on patterns of phenotypic selection and the genetic architecture of plant-herbivore interactions in an experimental sunflower crop-wild hybrid population in two locales. *Phenotypic selection analyses suggested that cultivar alleles conferring increased size were generally favored, but at one site cultivar-like flowering time was favored only if three types of herbivory were included in the selection model. Quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping identified three regions in which the cultivar allele conferred a selective advantage for a number of co-localized traits. Quantitative trait loci for several measures of insect herbivory were detected and, although the cultivar allele increased herbivory damage at the majority of these QTLs, they rarely colocalized with advantageous cultivar alleles for morphological traits. *These results suggest that a subset of cultivar traits/alleles are advantageous in natural environments but that herbivory may mitigate the selective advantage of some cultivar alleles.
