Construction of a High-Density Recombination Bin-Based Genetic Map Facilitates High-Resolution Mapping of a Major QTL Underlying Anthocyanin Pigmentation in Eggplant

High-density genetic maps can significantly improve the resolution of QTL mapping. We constructed a high-density recombination bin-based genetic map of eggplant based on 200 F<sub>2</sub> plants from an interspecific cross (<i>Solanum melongena</i> × <i>S. incanum</i...

description High-density genetic maps can significantly improve the resolution of QTL mapping. We constructed a high-density recombination bin-based genetic map of eggplant based on 200 F<sub>2</sub> plants from an interspecific cross (<i>Solanum melongena</i> × <i>S. incanum</i>) using the whole genome resequencing strategy. The map was 2022.8 cM long, covering near 99% of the eggplant genome. The map contained 3776 bins, with 3644 (96.5%) being effective (position non-redundant) ones, giving a nominal average distance of 0.54 cM and an effective average distance of 0.56 cM between adjacent bins, respectively. Using this map and 172 F<sub>2:3</sub> lines, a major QTL with pleiotropic effects on two anthocyanin pigmentation-related traits, leaf vein color (LVC) and fruit pericarp color (FPC), was steadily detected in a bin interval of 2.28 cM (or 1.68 Mb) on chromosome E10 in two cropping seasons, explaining ~65% and 55% of the phenotypic variation in LVC and FPC, respectively. Genome-wide association analysis in this population validated the QTL and demonstrated the correctness of mapping two bins of chromosome E02 onto E10. Bioinformatics analysis suggested that a WDR protein gene inside the bin interval with reliable effective variation between the two parents could be a possible candidate gene of the QTL.
