Fine-Mapping of Sorghum Stay-Green QTL on Chromosome10 Revealed Genes Associated with Delayed Senescence

This study was conducted to dissect the genetic basis and to explore the candidate genes underlying one of the important genomic regions on an SBI-10 long arm (L), governing the complex stay-green trait contributing to post-flowering drought-tolerance in sorghum.

description This study was conducted to dissect the genetic basis and to explore the candidate genes underlying one of the important genomic regions on an SBI-10 long arm (L), governing the complex stay-green trait contributing to post-flowering drought-tolerance in sorghum. A fine-mapping population was developed from an introgression line cross—RSG04008-6 (stay-green) × J2614-11 (moderately senescent). The fine-mapping population with 1894 F<sub>2</sub> was genotyped with eight SSRs and a set of 152 recombinants was identified, advanced to the F<sub>4</sub> generation, field evaluated with three replications over 2 seasons, and genotyped with the GBS approach. A high-resolution linkage map was developed for SBI-10L using 260 genotyping by sequencing—Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (GBS–SNPs). Using the best linear unpredicted means (BLUPs) of the percent green leaf area (%GL) traits and the GBS-based SNPs, we identified seven quantitative trait loci (QTL) clusters and single gene, mostly involved in drought-tolerance, for each QTL cluster, viz., AP2/ERF transcription factor family (<i>Sobic.010G202700</i>), NBS-LRR protein (<i>Sobic.010G205600</i>), ankyrin-repeat protein (<i>Sobic.010G205800</i>), senescence-associated protein (<i>Sobic.010G270300</i>), WD40 (<i>Sobic.010G205900</i>), CPK1 adapter protein (<i>Sobic.010G264400</i>), LEA2 protein (<i>Sobic.010G259200</i>) and an expressed protein (<i>Sobic.010G201100</i>). The target genomic region was thus delimited from 15 Mb to 8 genes co-localized with QTL clusters, and validated using quantitative real-time (qRT)–PCR.
