High-density genetic linkage map construction and white rot resistance quantitative trait loci mapping for genus Vitis based on restriction site-associated DNA sequencing
Phytopathology 111 (4), 659-670
Abstract: Grape white rot (Coniothyrium diplodiella) is a major fungal disease affecting grape yield and quality. Quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis is an important method for studying important horticultural traits of grapevine. This study was conducted to construct a high-density map and conduct QTL mapping for grapevine white rot resistance. A mapping population with 177 genotypes was developed from interspecific hybridization of a white rot-resistant cultivar (Vitis vinifera × V. labrusca 'Zhuosexiang') and white rot-susceptible cultivar (V. vinifera 'Victoria'). Single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers were developed by restriction site-associated DNA sequencing. The female, male, and integrated maps contained 2,501, 4,110, and 6,249 SNP markers with average genetic distances of adjacent markers of 1.25, 0.77, and 0.50 cM, respectively. QTL mapping was conducted based on white rot resistance identification of 177 individuals in July and August of 2017 and 2018. Notably, one stable QTL related to white rot resistance was detected and located on linkage group LG14. The phenotypic variance ranged from 12.93 to 13.43%. An SNP marker (chr14_3929380), which cosegregated with white rot resistance, was discovered and shows potential for use in marker-assisted selection to generate new grapevine cultivars with resistance to white rot.
