A genomic variation map provides insights into the genetic basis of cucumber domestication and diversity

Abstract: Most fruits in our daily diet are the products of domestication and breeding. Here we report a map of genome variation for a major fruit that encompasses ~3.6 million variants, generated by deep resequencing of 115 cucumber lines sampled from 3,342 accessions worldwide. Comparative analysis suggests that fruit crops underwent narrower bottlenecks during domestication than grain crops. We identified 112 putative domestication sweeps; 1 of these regions contains a gene involved in the loss of bitterness in fruit… Show more

“…115 and 278 lines were used in cucumber 7 and maize 6 , respectively. In addition, analyses of more samples are needed to probe how soybean subpopulations have adapted to different geographic areas 14 and to identify the large number of rare alleles that have been lost during soybean domestication and improvement 4 .…”

“…Complete genome genetic linkage maps containing more than 3.6 million loci have been developed by deep re-sequencing of 115 cucumber varieties (Qi et al, 2013). In addition, 12 QTLs have been identified by analyzing the length and diameter of cucumber fruits at different developmental stages using different QTL models (Weng et al, 2015).…”
