Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of biotechnology, and in particular relates to the application of wheat TaOSBP-4B gene molecular markers in identifying spike length and yield traits. Background Technology

[0002] Wheat is one of the world's most important food crops, and increasing wheat yield has become a key goal in wheat breeding. Traditional phenotypic selection-based breeding methods suffer from disadvantages such as long breeding cycles and low efficiency. Marker-assisted breeding can significantly shorten the breeding cycle and improve breeding efficiency. The number of ears per acre, the number of grains per ear, and the thousand-grain weight are the three key factors determining wheat yield. Ear length is an important ear trait with high heritability and a significant positive correlation with the number of grains per ear. Therefore, identifying genes controlling ear length and developing corresponding molecular markers can provide an accurate and effective approach for high-yield wheat breeding.

[0003] Oxidized sterol-binding proteins (OSBPs) are widely found in yeast, plants, and mammals, playing a crucial role in various cellular activities and regulatory networks related to abiotic stress responses, including signal transduction and lipid metabolism. They can significantly enhance the stress resistance of Arabidopsis thaliana, potato, and soybean. However, research on the wheat TaOSBP-4B gene has not been reported. Therefore, investigating the relationship between the wheat TaOSBP-4B gene and agronomic traits, and developing practical molecular markers, could provide effective marker resources for wheat genetic improvement and marker-assisted breeding.

These four SNPs have three haplotypes: haplotype Hap-1 (deleted 5'-CACCACCAC-3', A, G, G), haplotype Hap-2 (deleted 5'-CACCACCAC-3', G, A, A), and haplotype Hap-3 (5'-CACCACCAC-3', G, A, A). Association analysis and natural population validation confirmed that among the homozygous haplotypes of these three haplotypes, Hap-1 exhibited significantly higher spike length, spikelet number, grain number per spike, and thousand-grain weight than Hap-3. Hap-1 also showed significantly higher spike length than Hap-2. There were no significant differences in spikelet number, grain number per spike, and thousand-grain weight between Hap-1 and Hap-2, nor between Hap-2 and Hap-3. Experiments demonstrated that the wheat TaOSBP-4B gene molecular markers SNP-726 (SNP1), SNP-1128 (SNP2), SNP-10620 (SNP3), and SNP-10626 (SNP4) provided in this invention can rapidly screen for wheat spike length and yield-related traits, demonstrating significant application value in marker-assisted breeding and important implications for the genetic improvement of wheat varieties.

[0115] 2. Application of TaOSBP-4B gene molecular marker in haplotype identification

[0116] The genotype of the sample to be tested is determined based on the PCR product / enzyme digestion product in step 1, which is Hap-1, Hap-2, or Hap-3. The specific steps are as follows:

[0117] (1) Extract genomic DNA from wheat grains of the wheat samples to be tested;

[0118] (2) Using the genomic DNA of wheat grains to be tested as a template, PCR amplification was performed using primer pairs of molecular markers SNP1, SNP2, SNP3 and SNP4, and amplification products A, B, C and D were obtained in sequence.

[0119] (3) Amplified product A was detected by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis; Amplified product B was digested with restriction endonuclease BSRDI to obtain digested product E; Amplified product C was digested with restriction endonuclease AluI to obtain digested product F; Amplified product D was digested with restriction endonuclease MWOI to obtain digested product G.

[0120] The genotype results of the samples to be tested were determined as follows:

[0121] 1) If PCR product A is 310 bp, enzyme digestion products E are 663 bp and 134 bp, enzyme digestion products F are 406 bp and 437 bp, and enzyme digestion products G are 412 bp, 285 bp, and 146 bp, then the genotype of the sample to be tested is Hap-1. The specific genotype of Hap-1 is AAAAGGGG, which is a combination of four SNPs: SNP1 is AA (homozygous with nucleotides 726-734 of SEQ ID No. 1 missing 5'-CACCACCAC-3'), SNP2 is AA (homozygous with nucleotide 1128 of SEQ ID No. 1), SNP3 is GG (homozygous with nucleotide 10620 of SEQ ID No. 1), and SNP4 is GG (homozygous with nucleotide 10626 of SEQ ID No. 1).

[0122] 2) If PCR product A is 310 bp, enzyme digestion product E is 797 bp, enzyme digestion product F is 843 bp, and enzyme digestion products G are 558 bp and 285 bp, then the genotype of the sample to be tested is Hap-2, and the specific genotype of Hap-2 is AAGGAAAA. This refers to the genotype combination of four SNPs: SNP1 (genotype AA, homozygous for nucleotides 726-734 of SEQ ID No. 1 in the sequence listing lacking 5'-CACCACCAC-3'), SNP2 (genotype GG, homozygous for nucleotide 1128 of SEQ ID No. 1 in the sequence listing), SNP3 (genotype AA, homozygous for nucleotide 10620 of SEQ ID No. 1 in the sequence listing), and SNP4 (genotype AA, homozygous for nucleotide 10626 of SEQ ID No. 1 in the sequence listing).

[0123] 3) If PCR product A is 319 bp, enzyme digestion product E is 797 bp, enzyme digestion product F is 843 bp, and enzyme digestion products G are 558 bp and 285 bp, then the genotype of the sample to be tested is Hap-3. The specific genotype of Hap-3 is BBGGAAAA, which is a combination of four SNPs: SNP1 is BB (nucleotides 726-734 of SEQ ID No. 1 in the sequence listing are homozygous for 5'-CACCACCAC-3'), SNP2 is GG (nucleotide 1128 of SEQ ID No. 1 in the sequence listing is homozygous for G), SNP3 is AA (nucleotide 10620 of SEQ ID No. 1 in the sequence listing is homozygous for A), and SNP4 is AA (nucleotide 10626 of SEQ ID No. 1 in the sequence listing is homozygous for A).

[0124] Example 2: U-test of haplotypes and wheat spike length and yield traits

[0125] Genotyping of the natural population (Table 1) was performed using the four molecular markers SNP-726 (SNP1), SNP-1128 (SNP2), SNP-10620 (SNP3), and SNP-10626 (SNP4) from Example 1. U-tests were then conducted on the genotypes and traits of spikelet length, spikelet number, number of grains per spike, and thousand-grain weight. The specific steps are as follows:

[0126] 1. Genotyping

[0127] A natural population of 333 local and bred wheat varieties (from the National Germplasm Bank) was used as the test samples. Genotyping was performed according to the method established in Example 1 to determine whether each test sample had the genotype of Hap-1, Hap-2, or Hap-3. The test results are shown in Table 1.

[0139] II. U-test of haplotypes and wheat spike length and yield traits

[0140] In 2022-2023, natural populations were planted at the teaching and experimental base of Anhui Agricultural University (Wupu Farm, Suixi County, Huaibei). During this period, spike length, spikelet number, grain number per spike, and thousand-grain weight of each wheat variety were investigated. The U-test was used to perform association analysis between the three haplotypes Hap-1, Hap-2, and Hap-3 described in Example 1 and spike length and yield traits. The statistical results of the three haplotypes and spike length and yield traits in the natural population are shown in Table 1 and... Figure 3 As shown.

[0141] The spike length, number of spikelets, number of grains per spike, and thousand-grain weight of Hap-1 were significantly higher than those of Hap-3. The spike length of Hap-1 was significantly higher than that of Hap-2. There were no significant differences in the number of spikelets, number of grains per spike, and thousand-grain weight between Hap-1 and Hap-2, and there were no significant differences in these parameters between Hap-2 and Hap-3. This indicates that the wheat TaOSBP-4B gene molecular markers SNP-726 (SNP1), SNP-1128 (SNP2), SNP-10620 (SNP3), and SNP-10626 (SNP4) in this invention can effectively distinguish the superior haplotype Hap-1 and play a role in breeding large-spike, high-yielding wheat varieties.
