TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of molecular breeding, in particular to a poplar cold tolerance whole genome SNP site combination, a probe, a chip and application thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] Poplar (Populus) is a common tree, which is widely used as protective vegetation, soil compaction, soil and water conservation and afforestation plant. However, the frost resistance of poplar as an important biological trait is closely related to temperature change. Many poplar varieties are classified as mild zone plants, which are prone to frost damage symptoms in low temperature environment. Therefore, it is of great significance to study the frost resistance characteristics of poplar and the influence of temperature on the occurrence of frost damage.
[0003] Poplar cold tolerance breeding is mainly based on artificial selection, which is labor-intensive. Molecular marker assisted breeding is to use molecular markers closely linked to cold tolerance traits to detect the presence of target genes, and further breed cold-tolerant poplar hybrid offspring. This technology is fast, accurate and not affected by environmental conditions. For poplar cold tolerance breeding, no major genes have been located, and molecular marker assisted breeding is difficult to promote in poplar breeding. Whole genome selection is to use molecular markers distributed throughout the genome to predict the genomic estimated breeding value of individuals as a screening basis, which is a further application of molecular marker assisted breeding. In whole genome selection, first, a modeling population is constructed, and its genotype and phenotype are determined. A prediction model is established according to the phenotype and genotype data. Second, the genotype of the predicted population is determined. Finally, the breeding value is calculated using the established prediction model and the genotype data of the predicted population, and selection is carried out. After the whole genome selection model is established, the DNA of poplar seeds or seedlings can be detected to complete the cold tolerance breeding of poplar hybrid offspring, greatly reducing the number of plantings and accelerating the breeding process. SUMMARY
[0004] In view of the above problems in the prior art, the present application provides a poplar cold tolerance whole genome SNP site combination, a probe, a chip and application thereof, which effectively solves the problems of traditional poplar cold tolerance breeding relying on artificial selection, large workload and low efficiency.
[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the technical scheme adopted by the present application to solve its technical problems is to provide a poplar cold tolerance whole genome SNP site combination. The SNP site combination comprises 40141 SNP sites, and the physical position and typing information of the 40141 SNP sites are shown in Table 2.
[0006] Further, the poplar is Populus simonii.
[0007] A probe combination for detecting the poplar cold tolerance whole genome SNP site combination.
[0008] The probe combination is applied in preparation of a poplar cold tolerance whole genome chip.
[0009] A poplar cold tolerance whole genome chip comprises the probe combination.
[0010] Further, the probe combination is used for genotyping of each SNP site in the poplar cold tolerance whole genome SNP site combination.
[0011] The poplar cold tolerance whole genome SNP site combination, the probe combination or the poplar cold tolerance whole genome chip is applied in screening of a cold tolerance poplar variety.
[0012] A method for poplar cold tolerance whole genome genotyping detection comprises the following steps:
[0013] S1, obtaining genomic DNA of a poplar sample to be detected;
[0014] S2, detecting the genomic DNA obtained in step S1 by using the poplar cold tolerance whole genome chip to obtain raw data;
[0015] S3, analyzing the raw data obtained in step S3 to obtain a genotyping result.
[0016] In summary, the present application has the following beneficial effects:
[0017] 1. The present application realizes efficient and accurate cold tolerance prediction of a poplar hybrid offspring by developing a whole genome SNP site combination highly associated with cold tolerance and constructing a high-accuracy whole genome selection model based on the SNP site combination, thereby significantly reducing field planting scale and greatly accelerating the breeding process.
[0018] 2. The whole genome selection model constructed by using the SNP marker combination can efficiently predict the cold tolerance of a poplar hybrid offspring, and has high accuracy (the prediction accuracy of indicators such as chlorophyll content is >0.7), thereby greatly reducing the number of plants that need to be planted in the field and significantly accelerating the breeding process. The present application provides a reliable tool for cold tolerance breeding: the probes and chips developed based on the SNP combination can efficiently and accurately detect target sites, and provide a stable and reliable technical means for molecular marker assisted selection and whole genome selection breeding of poplar cold tolerance traits. The present application has wide application value: the technical scheme is not only suitable for small leaf poplar, but also has good detection efficiency (capture efficiency is generally >90%) for other poplar factions (such as green poplar faction and black poplar faction), and has wide applicability and popularization value.

[0232] Genome-wide selection analysis
[0233] (1) Genome-wide selection model establishment and prediction
[0234] a. For the 6 indexes related to cold tolerance, BayesA, BayesB, BayesC and GBLUP were used to establish genome-wide selection models. The prediction accuracy results are shown in Table 1. Figure 12
[0235] b. Training set results: There was no significant difference in the prediction effect of 4 models of 6 phenotypic indicators. The prediction accuracy of chlorophyll content (Chl), relative conductivity (EC), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and soluble sugar content (suagr) was higher than 0.7. The prediction accuracy of reduced glutathione (GSH) and total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC) was between 0.3 and 0.4, which may be due to the instability of enzyme activity determination. Chlorophyll content (Chl) is simple and convenient to detect, and has good prediction accuracy. Subsequent use of chlorophyll content (Chl) as a cold tolerance screening indicator.
[0236] Example 4
[0237] The SNP screened in Example 3 was evaluated by probe. The screening principle is that there is no InDel marker within 50bp upstream and downstream of the SNP site; there is only one copy number of 100bp sequence upstream and downstream of the genome; the GC content is 40-60%; there is no short repeat sequence in the sequence; and there is no N base in the sequence.

[0244] (3) Probe hybridization with target region
[0245] The prepared SNP probe was hybridized with the Pre-PCR library, the streptomycin-modified probe was complementary captured with the complementary DNA library, and after enrichment of the target DNA library, other library DNA was eluted, i.e. the Pre-PCR library after capture.
[0246] (4) DNA purification
[0247] After magnetic bead purification, the DNA concentration required for high-throughput sequencing was amplified and enriched.
[0248] (5) High-throughput sequencing
[0249] The library obtained after capturing and amplifying step (4) is subjected to high-throughput sequencing by using DNBSEQ-T7 sequencing platform of Huada Intelligent Manufacturing to obtain the sequencing results of genomic DNA, and the obtained data is subjected to basic cleaning treatment.
[0250] (6) Evaluation of liquid phase probe capture rate
[0251] The cleaned sequencing data is aligned to the poplar GCA_015852605.2 reference sequence by using bwa software, and the capture efficiency is evaluated.

[0256] Table 3 Capture efficiency of different samples
[0257]
[0258] (2) Evaluation of capture efficiency of 38 poplar varieties
[0259] The capture efficiency of black poplar is 93.98% to 94.26%, the capture efficiency of white poplar is 84.66% to 92.73%, the capture efficiency of green poplar is 93.85% to 98.92%, the capture efficiency of large leaf poplar is 91.12% to 96.73%, and the capture efficiency of poplar is 94.16% to 96.17%.
