In this study, the first genetic map of Luohanguo ( Siraitia grosvenorii (Swingle) C. Jeffrey) was constructed with 150 F2 population individuals using inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) and sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) markers. A total of 100 ISSRs and 196 SRAP primer combinations generated 51 and 222 polymorphic markers, respectively. Among the 273 markers obtained, 199 markers (29 ISSRs and 170 SRAPs) were mapped to 25 linkage groups. The map covered 1463.3 cM with a mean map distance of 7.35 cM between adjacent markers and a maximum map distance of 52.6 cM between two markers. The markers were distributed randomly in 25 groups except for minor clusters in the distal region of linkage groups. All 25 linkage groups consisted of 2–36 loci ranging in length from 19.5 to 152.6 cM and accounted for 59.8% of the total map distance. This map provides reference information for future molecular breeding work on Luohanguo.

Genetic maps provide an important genomic resource of basic and applied significance. Spruce ( Picea ) has a very large genome size (between 0.85 × 1010 and 2.4 × 1010 bp; 8.5–24.0 pg/1C, a mean of 17.7 pg/1C ). We have constructed a near-saturated genetic linkage map for an interspecific backcross (BC1) hybrid of black spruce (BS; Picea mariana (Mill.) B.S.P.) and red spruce (RS; Picea rubens Sarg.), using selectively amplified microsatellite polymorphic loci (SAMPL) markers. A total of 2284 SAMPL markers were resolved using 31 SAMPL–MseI selective nucleotide primer combinations. Of these, 1216 SAMPL markers showing Mendelian segregation were mapped, whereas 1068 (46.8%) SAMPL fragments showed segregation distortion at α = 0.05. Maternal, paternal, and consensus maps consistently coalesced into 12 linkage groups, corresponding to the haploid chromosome number (1n = 1x = 12) of 12 in the genus Picea. The maternal BS map consisted of 814 markers distributed over 12 linkage groups, covering 1670 cM, with a mean map distance of 2.1 cM between adjacent markers. The paternal BS × RS map consisted of 773 markers distributed over 12 linkage groups, covering 1563 cM, with a mean map distance of 2.0 cM between adjacent markers. The consensus interspecific hybrid BC1 map consisted of 1216 markers distributed over 12 linkage groups, covering 1865 cM (98% genome coverage), with a mean map distance of 1.5 cM between adjacent markers. The genetic map reported here provides an important genomic resource in Picea, Pinaceae, and conifers.

To lay a foundation for molecular breeding efforts, the first genetic linkage map for Stevia rebaudiana has been constructed using segregation data from a pseudo test-cross F1 population. A total of 183 randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers were analysed and assembled into 21 linkage groups covering a total distance of 1389 cM, with an average distance between markers of of 7.6 cM. The 11 largest linkage groups consisted of 4-19 loci, ranged in length from 56 to 174 cM, and accounted for 75% of the total map distance. Fifteen RAPD loci were found to be unlinked. From the 521 primers showing amplification products, 185 (35.5%) produced a total of 293 polymorphic fragments, indicating a high level of genetic diversity in stevia. Most of the RAPD markers in stevia segregated in normal Mendelian fashion.Key words: stevia, open-pollinated, genome map, RAPD.

Using a population of 105 interspecific F2 hybrids derived from a cross between Agropyron mongolicum Keng and Agropyron cristatum (L.) Gaertn. ‘Fairway’ as a mapping population, a genetic linkage map of crested wheatgrass was constructed based on AFLP and RAPD molecular markers. A total of 175 markers, including 152 AFLP and 23 RAPD markers, were ordered in seven linkage groups. The map distance was 416 cM, with a mean distance of 2.47 cM between markers. The number of markers ranged from 13 to 46 in each linkage group and the length of groups ranged from 18 to 104 cM. The research found that 30 out of 175 molecular markers showed segregation distortion, accounting for 17% of all markers. This is the first genetic linkage map of crested wheatgrass. This map will facilitate gene localization, cloning, and molecular marker-assisted selection in the future.

A set of 90 doubled haploid (DH) lines derived from F1plants that originated from a cross between × Triticosecale Wittm. ‘Saka3006’ and ×Triticosecale Wittm. ‘Modus’, via wide crossing with maize, were used to create a genetic linkage map of triticale. The map has 21 linkage groups assigned to the A, B, and R genomes including 155 simple sequence repeat (SSR), 1385 diversity array technology (DArT), and 28 amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) markers covering 2397 cM with a mean distance between two markers of 4.1 cM. Comparative analysis with wheat consensus maps revealed that triticale chromosomes of the A and B genomes were represented by 15 chromosomes, including combinations of 2AS.2AL#, 2AL#2BL, 6AS.6AL#, and 2BS.6AL# instead of 2A, 2B, and 6A. In respect to published maps of rye, substantial rearrangements were found also for chromosomes 1R, 2R, and 3R of the rye genome. Chromosomes 1R and 2R were truncated and the latter was linked with 3R. A nonhomogeneous distribution of markers across the triticale genome was observed with evident bias (48%) towards the rye genome. This genetic map may serve as a reference linkage map of triticale for efficient studies of structural rearrangements, gene mapping, and marker-assisted selection.

An F2 population derived from a cross between Sorghum bicolor ssp. bicolor ('CK60') and Sorghum bicolor ssp. drummondii ('PI229828') was used to develop an RFLP genetic linkage map of sorghum. The map consists of 201 loci distributed among 10 linkage groups covering a map distance of 1530 cM, with an average 8 cM between adjacent loci. Maize genomic probes (52), maize cDNA probes (124), and sorghum genomic probes (10) were used to define the loci (55, 136, and 10, respectively). Ninety-five percent of the loci fit expected segregation ratios. The loci with distorted segregation ratios were confined almost exclusively to a region of one linkage group. Comparison of sorghum and maize maps indicated high correspondence between the two genomes in terms of loci order and genetic distance. Many loci linked in maize (45 of 55) were also linked in sorghum. Instances of both conserved and rearranged locus orders were detected. Key words: genetics, gene mapping, Sorghum bicolor, Zea mays.

Hordeum Vulgare Ssp

Miniature inverted-repeat transposable elements (MITEs) represent a large superfamily of transposons that are moderately to highly repetitive and frequently found near or within plant genes. To elucidate the organization of MITEs in the barley genome, MITEs were integrated into the genetic map of barley. In this report, we describe the use of MITEs in amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) mapping, and demonstrate their superiority over conventional AFLP mapping. Barley MITEs include members of the Stowaway, Barfly, and Pangrangja families. By amplifying the flanking sequences of these MITEs, a total of 214 loci were mapped from a population of 93 doubled-haploid segregating individuals between Hordeum vulgare ssp. vulgare and H. vulgare ssp. spontaneum. The 214 MITE-AFLP and 40 anchor simple sequence repeat (SSR) loci were distributed on 7 linkage groups, covering a total map distance of 1 165 cM. The average marker density on each chromosome ranged between 3.4 and 9.6 cM per locus. Only 1 MITE-based locus was frequently found to be associated with MITE loci from the same family, resulting in clusters in chromosomal subregions. In barley, it will be possible to cover the entire genome with a limited set of MITE-based primers and to build highly dense maps of specific regions.

A genetic linkage map was previously constructed for watermelon using a wide testcross population [{Plant Accession Griffin 14113; Citrullus lanatus var. citroides (L.H. Baiely) Mansf.} × the watermelon cultivar New Hampshire Midget; NHM {(Citrullus lanatus (Thunb.) Matsum. & Nakai var. lanatus)} × United States Plant Introduction (PI) 386015 {Citrullus colocynthis (L.) Schrad.}]. One-hundred forty-six markers [randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), intersimple sequence repeat (ISSR), amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP), and sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) markers] unique to NHM and representing different linkage groups on the map were tested for polymorphism among 24 watermelon cultivars limited in genetic diversity. Five (9.4%) of 53 RAPD, six (40.0%) of 15 ISSR, 30 (81.0%) of 37 AFLP, and 33 (80.5%) of 41 SRAP markers tested produced polymorphism among the 24 cultivars. The polymorphic markers used in this study are scattered throughout the watermelon genome. However, a large number (19 of the 30) of AFLP markers clustered on one linkage group on the map. The SRAP markers proved to be most effective in producing polymorphism and in representing different linkage regions of watermelon genome. The polymorphic markers represent all 10 large linkage groups and five of the nine small linkage groups (altogether 15 of 19 linkage groups) of the genetic linkage map constructed so far for watermelon. These polymorphic markers can be useful in DNA fingerprinting of cultivars, in testing seed purity of breeding lines, and in identifying triploid (seedless) hybrid watermelons derived from crosses between closely related tetraploid and diploid lines.

We constructed a genetic linkage map for Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus) using two backcrosses between genetically divergent strains. Forty-six linkage groups (expected = 39–41) and 19 homeologous affinities (expected = 25) were identified using 184 microsatellites, 129 amplified fragment length polymorphisms (AFLPs), 13 type I gene markers, and one phenotypic marker, SEX. Twenty-six markers remain unlinked. Female map distance (9.92 Morgans) was substantially higher than male map distance (3.90 Morgans) based on the most complete parental information (i.e., the F1 hybrids). Female recombination rates were often significantly higher than those of males across all pairwise comparisons within homologous chromosomal segments (average female to male ratios within families was 1.69:1). The female hybrid parent had significantly higher recombination rates than the pure strain female parent. Segregation distortion was detected in four linkage groups (4, 8, 13, 20) for both families. In family 3, only the largest fish were sampled for genotyping, suggesting that segregation distortion may represent regions possessing influences on growth. In family 2, almost all cases showing segregation distortion involved markers in the female hybrid parent.Key words: salmonid fishes, polyploidy, homeology, genetic markers.

Accelerated improvement of two cornerstones of New Zealand's pastoral industries, per ennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) and white clover (Trifolium repens L.), may be realised through the application of markerassisted selection (MAS) strategies to enhance traditional plant breeding programmes. Genome maps constructed using molecular markers represent the enabling technology for such strategies and we have assembled maps for each species using EST-SSR markers - simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers developed from expressed sequence tags (ESTs) representing genes. A comprehensive map of the white clover genome has been completed, with 464 EST-SSR and genomic SSR marker loci spanning 1125 cM in total, distributed across 16 linkage groups. These have been further classified into eight pairs of linkage groups, representing contributions from the diploid progenitors of this tetraploid species. In perennial ryegrass a genome map based exclusively on EST-SSR loci was constructed, with 130 loci currently mapped to seven linkage groups and covering a distance of 391 cM. This map continues to be expanded with the addition of ESTSSR loci, and markers are being concurrently transferred to other populations segregating for economically significant traits. We have initiated gene discovery through quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis in both species, and the efficacy of the white clover map for this purpose was demonstrated with the initial identification of multiple QTL controlling seed yield and seedling vigour. One QTL on linkage group D2 accounts for 25.9% of the genetic variation for seed yield, and a putative QTL accounting for 12.7% of the genetic variation for seedling vigour was detected on linkage group E1. The application of MAS to forage breeding based on recurrent selection is discussed.
