Developing a Molecular Identification Assay of Old Landraces for the Genetic Authentication of Typical Agro-Food Products: the Case Study of the Barley ‘Agordino’

Abstract: SummaryThe orzo Agordino is a very old local variety of domesticated barley (Hordeum vulgare ssp. distichum L.) that is native to the Agordo District, Province of Belluno, and is widespread in the Veneto Region, Italy. Seeds of this landrace are widely used for the preparation of very famous dishes of the dolomitic culinary tradition such as barley soup, bakery products and local beer. Understanding the genetic diversity and identity of the Agordino barley landrace is a key step to establish conservation and v… Show more

“…SSR private alleles are recognized as an efficient food traceability tool since they can be assigned unambiguously to a specific variety. Recently, a molecular system entirely based on private alleles was developed by Palumbo et al [37] in order to verify the genetic authenticity of food products deriving from an Italian barley landrace. Unfortunately, all six private alleles observed in this study were present at very low frequencies (<0.05%), so they could not be used, even in combination, for the same purpose.…”

“…Molecular markers such as microsatellites or SSRs play a central role in the assessment and conservation of genetic diversity due to their efficiency, reliability, and reproducibility. Several studies based on the application of SSRs have recently attempted to monitor and prevent genetic erosion of local crop varieties in Italian scenarios [15,17,18,19]. Estimating the allelic dosage at each locus represents a critical question in polyploid species, even when using co-dominant markers such as microsatellites [20].…”

“…Therefore, for efficient utilization of barley landraces in breeding programs and to develop the strategies for their optimal conservation, it is necessary systematically to evaluate molecular diversity encompassed in the landraces collections 17 . Among the DNA markers, SSR markers have been extensively use to analyze population structure and genetic diversity in barley germplasm, due to the high polymorphism, reproducibility, co-dominant and multi-allelic nature when compared to most of the marker systems [16][17][18][19][20][21][22] .…”
