Abstract
Groundnut is an important oilseed crop; however, its productivity and seed quality are frequently reduced due to lack of fresh seed dormancy (FSD). To address this challenge, a mini-core collection of 184 accessions was phenotyped to identify potential donors in each agronomic type. In addition, whole genome re-sequencing and multi-season phenotypic evaluations were analyzed to identify stable marker-trait associations (MTAs) linked to FSD. Phenotypic analysis revealed substantial variability in dormancy durations, with days to 50 % germination (DFG) ranging from 1 to 30 days. Multi-locus genome-wide association study (ML-GWAS) identified 27 MTAs in individual seasons and 12 MTAs in pooled seasons data, respectively. Key candidate genes identified included Cytochrome P450 superfamily proteins, protein kinase superfamily proteins, and MYB transcription factors involved in the Abscisic acid (ABA) pathway, as well as F-box interaction domain proteins, ATP-binding ABC transporters, associated with the Gibberellic acid (GA) pathway. SNP-based KASP (Kompetitive Allele-Specific Polymerase chain reaction) markers were developed for 12 SNPs, of which four markers (snpAH00577, snpAH00580, snpAH00586 and snpAH00588) were found useful for the selection of FSD. The combination of favourable allele from four genes namely Ahfsd1 (Arahy.8B3CAL), Ahfsd2 (Arahy.NRZN5K), Ahfsd3 (Arahy.JJ8FJQ), and Ahfsd4 (Arahy.PI0JM6) provides stable 24–30 days of dormancy. Incorporating favourable dormant alleles into breeding programs could enable the development of high-yielding cultivars with a dormancy period of more than two weeks.
期刊介绍:
Plant Physiology and Biochemistry publishes original theoretical, experimental and technical contributions in the various fields of plant physiology (biochemistry, physiology, structure, genetics, plant-microbe interactions, etc.) at diverse levels of integration (molecular, subcellular, cellular, organ, whole plant, environmental). Opinions expressed in the journal are the sole responsibility of the authors and publication does not imply the editors'' agreement.
Manuscripts describing molecular-genetic and/or gene expression data that are not integrated with biochemical analysis and/or actual measurements of plant physiological processes are not suitable for PPB. Also "Omics" studies (transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, etc.) reporting descriptive analysis without an element of functional validation assays, will not be considered. Similarly, applied agronomic or phytochemical studies that generate no new, fundamental insights in plant physiological and/or biochemical processes are not suitable for publication in PPB.
Plant Physiology and Biochemistry publishes several types of articles: Reviews, Papers and Short Papers. Articles for Reviews are either invited by the editor or proposed by the authors for the editor''s prior agreement. Reviews should not exceed 40 typewritten pages and Short Papers no more than approximately 8 typewritten pages. The fundamental character of Plant Physiology and Biochemistry remains that of a journal for original results.
