Further conversion of the sequenced genome into well-structured, oriented and annotated chromosome-scale pseudomolecules has made potato more amenable to modern genomic approaches such as sequenced- based genotyping. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are feasible and are gaining importance for studying the genetics of natural variation and traits of agricultural importance. GWAS offers significant advantages, such as increased mapping resolution, increased numbers of segregating traits, and greater allelic diversity than traditional mapping using bi-parental crosses. For a robust GWAS analysis, presence of high-throughput and marker-dense genotyping platforms are preferable. Previously, GWAS has been applied to potato using both more traditional (e.g. SSRs and AFLPs) as well as contemporary, sequence- based (e.g. SNPs) marker types. We are exploiting the latest high-throughput Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technologies for performing GWAS in potato by employing a ‘Genotyping-by- Sequencing’ (GBS) approach. GBS offers advantages of simultaneous genotyping as well marker discovery and alleviates issues arising from factors such as ascertainment bias. Our Association Panel comprises 350 diverse autotetraploid potato cultivars which have been Illumina-sequenced at a reduced complexity level coupled with indexed sample multiplexing. The panel has also been genotyped using the SolCAP 8k Infinium array for the initial assessment of population stratification and Linkage Disequilibrium (LD). The selected germplasm has been phenotyped in two environments over two growing seasons. Potato, a highly heterozygous and tetraploid crop, brings many challenges for the downstream analysis of GBS data as well as GWAS analysis. Insights from these efforts will be presented. 2 A COMPLEX DISEASE RESISTANCE LOCUS ON POTATO AND TOMATO CHROMOSOME 4 EXHIBITS A CONSERVED STRUCTURE DISPLAYING DIFFERENT RATES OF EVOLUTION IN DIFFERENT LINEAGES D.

Griffin 1 1 Teagasc, Crops, Environment and Land Use Programme, Carlow, IRELAND 2 Cell and Molecular Sciences, The James Hutton Institute, Dundee, UNITED KINGDOM 3 University College Cork, Cork, IRELAND Introduction In plant genomes, NB-LRR based resistance (R) genes tend to occur as clusters of variable size in a relatively small number of regions. The R-gene sequences mostly differentiate by accumulating point mutations and gene conversion events. Potato and tomato chromosome 4 harbours a syntenic R-gene locus (known as the R2 locus in potato) that has mainly been examined in central American/Mexican wild potato species on the basis of its contribution to resistance to late blight, caused by the oomycete pathogen Phytophthora infestans. Evidence to date indicates the occurrence of a fast evolutionary mode characterized by gene conversion events at the locus in these genotypes. The recent sequencing of the potato and tomato genomes has afforded the opportunity to examine the evolutionary mode of this locus in a different lineage, of South American origin, where co-evolution with diverse and aggressive isolates of the late blight pathogen may not have been as significant a driving force. Methods and Results A physical map of the R2 locus (representative of the Group Phureja lineage) was developed for three S. tuberosum genotypes and used to identify the tomato syntenic sequence. Functional annotation of the locus revealed the presence of numerous resistance gene homologs (RGHs) belonging to the R2 gene family (R2GHs) organized into several discrete clusters, three of which were conserved across S. tuberosum and tomato. The locus has expanded in S. tuberosum Group Phureja and footprints of recent duplication events can be identified between five sets of potato paralogs. Phylogenetic analysis showed clear orthologous relationships between S. tuberosum Group Phureja R2GHs but not in R2GHs cloned from Solanum wild species. This study confirmed that, in contrast to the wild species R2GHs, which have evolved through extensive sequence exchanges between paralogs, gene conversion was not a major force for differentiation in S. tuberosum Group Phureja R2GHs, and orthologous relationships have been maintained via a slow accumulation of point mutations in these genotypes. In addition, as well as the expected level of positive selection in the LRR regions, members of the R2 gene family from both lineages share significant levels of positive selection in codons at the 5’ end. Discussion Comparative analysis reveals a conserved tripartite structure at the R2 locus predating speciation of potato and tomato. S. tuberosum Group Phureja and S. lycopersicum R2GHs evolved mostly through duplication and deletion events, followed by gradual accumulation of mutations. This slow evolutionary rate unequivocally delineated the orthologous relationships between R2GHs in S. tuberosum genotypes. Conversely, the numerous gene conversion events detected in R2GHs from Solanum wild species conceal mutual orthologous relationships. Conclusions We conclude that different selective forces shaped the evolution of the R2 locus and that co-evolution with a pathogen steered selection on different evolutionary paths. 3 ALLELE-SPECIFIC MOLECULAR MARKERS FOR THE POTATO’S DISEASE RESISTANCE GENES VIA NEXT GENERATION SEQUENCING F.

  • Developing a Genetic Manipulation System for the Antarctic Archaeon, Halorubrum Lacusprofundi: Investigating Acetamidase Gene Function
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Developing a genetic manipulation system for the Antarctic archaeon, Halorubrum lacusprofundi: Received: 27 May 2016 Accepted: 16 September 2016 investigating acetamidase gene Published: 06 October 2016 function Y. Liao1, T. J. Williams1, J. C. Walsh2,3, M. Ji1, A. Poljak4, P. M. G. Curmi2, I. G. Duggin3 & R. Cavicchioli1 No systems have been reported for genetic manipulation of cold-adapted Archaea. Halorubrum lacusprofundi is an important member of Deep Lake, Antarctica (~10% of the population), and is amendable to laboratory cultivation. Here we report the development of a shuttle-vector and targeted gene-knockout system for this species. To investigate the function of acetamidase/formamidase genes, a class of genes not experimentally studied in Archaea, the acetamidase gene, amd3, was disrupted. The wild-type grew on acetamide as a sole source of carbon and nitrogen, but the mutant did not. Acetamidase/formamidase genes were found to form three distinct clades within a broad distribution of Archaea and Bacteria. Genes were present within lineages characterized by aerobic growth in low nutrient environments (e.g. haloarchaea, Starkeya) but absent from lineages containing anaerobes or facultative anaerobes (e.g. methanogens, Epsilonproteobacteria) or parasites of animals and plants (e.g. Chlamydiae). While acetamide is not a well characterized natural substrate, the build-up of plastic pollutants in the environment provides a potential source of introduced acetamide. In view of the extent and pattern of distribution of acetamidase/formamidase sequences within Archaea and Bacteria, we speculate that acetamide from plastics may promote the selection of amd/fmd genes in an increasing number of environmental microorganisms.

The development of high throughput sequencing techniques has led to an enormous amount of data (genomic and other “omic” data) and has also revealed an extensive diversity behind these data. These data are more and more used also in systematics and there is a strong trend to classify and name the taxonomic units in prokaryotic systematics preferably on the basis of sequence data. Unfortunately, the knowledge of the meaning behind the sequence data does not keep up with the tremendous increase of generated sequences. The extent of the accessory genome in any given cell, and perhaps the infinite extent of the pan-genome (as an aggregate of all the accessory genomes) is fascinating but it is an open question if and how these data should be used in systematics. Traditionally the polyphasic approach in bacterial systematics considers methods including both phenotype and genotype. And it is the phenotype that is (also) playing an essential role in driving the evolution.
