“…The wheat line 20828 (G214-5/3/Chuanyu19//Lang 9247/50788) with more spikelet number per spike (SNS) ( Ding et al, 2022 ) is highly resistant to strip rust ( Ma et al, 2019 ; Liu et al, 2020a ). SY95-71 (Eronga83/Fan 6//Fan 6) is a stable line with a well-developed root system showing longer MRL ( Zheng et al, 2019 ) and a better plant architecture ( Liu et al, 2020b , 2022 ). Two populations derived from the cross of HTGW3/SY95-71 (HTG3SY, F 3 , 131 lines) ( Chen et al, 2022 ) and S849-8/SY95-71 (SSY, F 7 , 214 lines) ( Qu et al, 2022 ) were used to verify the major QTL.…”

Maximum root length (MRL) plays an important role in the uptake of nutrients and resisting abiotic stresses. Understanding the genetic mechanism of root development is of great significance for genetic improvement of wheat. Previous studies have confirmed that parental reproductive environment (PRE) has a significant impact on growth and development of the next generation in the whole life cycle of a given plant. In this study, a recombinant inbred line population genotyped using the Wheat55K SNP array, was used to map quantitative trait loci (QTL) for wheat seedling MRL based on the harvested seeds from five different PREs. A total of 5 QTL located on chromosomes 3D and 7A were identified. Among them, QMrl.sicau-2SY-3D.2 located in a 4.0 cM interval on chromosome 3D was likely independent of PREs. QMrl.sicau-2SY-7A.2 was detected in two tests and probably influenced by PREs. The effect of QMrl.sicau-2SY-3D.2 was further validated using the tightly linked kompetitive allele specific PCR (KASP) marker, KASP-AX-111589572, in populations with different genetic backgrounds. Lines with a combination of positive alleles from QMrl.sicau-2SY-3D.2 and QMrl.sicau-2SY-7A.2 have significantly longer MRL. Furthermore, four genes (TraesCS3D03G0612000, TraesCS3D03G0608400, TraesCS3D03G0613600, and TraesCS3D03G0602400) mainly expressed in wheat root were predicted to be associated with root growth. Taken together, this study reports on a major QTL independent of PREs and lays a foundation for understanding the regulation mechanism of wheat MRL at the seedling stage.

Pleotropy is frequently detected in agronomic traits of wheat (Triticum aestivum). A locus on chromosome 4B, QTn/Ptn/SL/Sns/Al/Tgw/Gl/Gw.caas-4B, proved to show pleotropic effects on tiller, spike, and grain traits using a recombinant inbred line (RIL) population of Qingxinmai × 041133. The allele from Qingxinmai increased tiller numbers, and the allele from line 041133 produced better performances of spike traits and grain traits. Several minor effective QTL on different chromosomes enhanced the effects of this locus. Several genes in the genomic interval of the locus on chromosome 4B were differentially expressed in crown and inflorescence samples between Qingxinmai and line 041133. The development of the KASP marker specific for the pleotropic locus on chromosome 4B is useful for molecular marker-assisted selection in wheat breeding.

“…Many studies have shown that the branch (tiller) angle is a quantitative trait, controlled by major genes and modified by minor genes ( Yu et al., 2007 ; Liu et al., 2016 ; Clark et al., 2022 ; Liu et al., 2022 ). The important factors affecting branch (tiller) angle are genetics, hormone regulation, and environmental factors (such as planting density) ( Wang et al., 2022a ).…”

IntroductionBranching angle is an essential trait in determining the planting density of rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) and hence the yield per unit area. However, the mechanism of branching angle formation in rapeseed is not well understood.MethodsIn this study, two rapeseed germplasm with extreme branching angles were used to construct an F2 segregating population; then bulked segregant analysis sequencing (BSA-seq) and quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping were utilized to localize branching anglerelated loci and combined with transcriptome sequencing (RNA-seq) and quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) for candidate gene miningResults and discussionA branching angle-associated quantitative trait loci (QTL) was mapped on chromosome C3 (C3: 1.54-2.65 Mb) by combining BSA-seq as well as traditional QTL mapping. A total of 54 genes had SNP/Indel variants within the QTL interval were identified. Further, RNA-seq of the two parents revealed that 12 of the 54 genes were differentially expressed between the two parents. Finally, we further validated the differentially expressed genes using qPCR and found that six of them presented consistent differential expression in all small branching angle samples and large branching angles, and thus were considered as candidate genes related to branching angles in rapeseed. Our results introduce new candidate genes for the regulation of branching angle formation in rapeseed, and provide an important reference for the subsequent exploration of its formation mechanism.
