Identifying Wild Versus Cultivated Gene-Alleles Conferring Seed Coat Color and Days to Flowering in Soybean

Annual wild soybean (<i>G. soja</i>) is the ancestor of the cultivated soybean (<i>G. max</i>). To reveal the genetic changes from <i>soja</i> to <i>max</i>, an improved wild soybean chromosome segment substitution line (CSSL) population, <i>Soja...

description Annual wild soybean (<i>G. soja</i>) is the ancestor of the cultivated soybean (<i>G. max</i>). To reveal the genetic changes from <i>soja</i> to <i>max</i>, an improved wild soybean chromosome segment substitution line (CSSL) population, <i>SojaCSSLP5</i>, composed of 177 CSSLs with 182 SSR markers (SSR-map), was developed based on <i>SojaCSSLP1</i> generated from <i>NN1138-2</i>(<i>max</i>)×<i>N24852</i>(<i>soja</i>). The <i>SojaCSSLP5</i> was genotyped further through whole-genome resequencing, resulting in a physical map with 1366 SNPLDBs (SNP linkage-disequilibrium blocks), which are composed of more markers/segments, shorter marker length and more recombination breakpoints than the SSR-map and caused 721 new wild substituted segments. Using the SNPLDB-map, two loci co-segregating with seed-coat color (SCC) and six loci for days to flowering (DTF) with 88.02% phenotypic contribution were identified. Integrated with parental RNA-seq and DNA-resequencing, two SCC and six DTF candidate genes, including three previously cloned (<i>G</i>, <i>E2</i> and <i>GmPRR3B</i>) and five newly detected ones, were predicted and verified at nucleotide mutant level, and then demonstrated with the consistency between gene-alleles and their phenotypes in <i>SojaCSSLP5</i>. In total, six of the eight genes were identified with the parental allele-pairs coincided to those in 303 germplasm accessions, then were further demonstrated by the consistency between gene-alleles and germplasm phenotypes. Accordingly, the CSSL population integrated with parental DNA and RNA sequencing data was demonstrated to be an efficient platform in identifying candidate wild vs. cultivated gene-alleles.
