Male and female inheritance patterns in tetraploid ‘Moncada’ mandarin
Plant Cell Reports, 2020Co-Authors: Miguel Garavello, P. Ollitrault, L. Navarro, J. Cuenca, Andrés Garcia-lor, Neus Ortega, P. AlezaAbstract:Key message Tetraploid `Moncada´ mandarin, used as male and female in interploidy hybridizations, displays mainly tetrasomic inheritance for most LGs, with slight variations according to the direction of the crossing. Abstract Triploid-breeding programs in citrus are key tool to develop seedless cultivars. Obtaining triploid citrus hybrids may be achieved through different strategies, such as the exploitation of female unreduced gamete in crosses between diploid parents and diploid by tetraploid sexual hybridizations, in which tetraploid genotypes can be used as male or female parents. Genetic configuration of triploid populations from interploid crosses greatly depends on the chromosomic segregation mode of the tetraploid parent used. Here, we have analyzed the inheritance of the tetraploid ‘Moncada’ mandarin and compared the genetic structures of the resulting gametes when used as male and as female parent. The preferential chromosome pairing rate is calculated from the parental heterozygosity restitution (PHR) of codominant molecular markers, indicating the proportion between disomic and tetrasomic segregation. Tetraploid ‘Moncada’ both as female and male parent largely exhibited tetrasomic segregation. However, as female parent, one linkage group (LG8) showed intermediate segregation with tendency towards tetrasomic inheritance, while another linkage group (LG4) evidenced a clear intermediate segregation. On the other hand, when used as male parent two linkage groups (LG5 and LG6) showed values that fit an intermediate inheritance model with tetrasomic tendency. Significant doubled reduction (DR) rates were observed in five linkage groups as female parent, and in six linkage groups as male parent. The new knowledge generated here will serve to define crossing strategies in citrus improvement programs to efficiently obtain new varieties of interest in the global fresh consumption market.

Inheritance in doubled-diploid clementine and comparative study with SDR unreduced gametes of diploid clementine
Plant Cell Reports, 2016Co-Authors: P. Aleza, J. Juárez, L. Navarro, J. Cuenca, P. OllitraultAbstract:Key message Tetraploid clementine displays mainly tetrasomic inheritance. Genetic structures of 2n SDR and 2 × gametes from DD clementine are complementary and will guides triploids citrus breeding strategies. Abstract Triploid breeding is developed worldwide to create new seedless cultivars. Citrus triploid hybrids can be recovered from 2x × 2x sexual hybridizations as a consequence of the formation of unreduced gametes (2n), or from 4x × 2x interploid hybridizations in which tetraploid parents used are most often doubled-diploid (DD). Here we have analyzed the inheritance in doubled-diploid clementine and compared the genetic structures of gametes of DD clementine with SDR unreduced gametes of diploid clementine. Parental heterozygosity restitution (PHR) with DD parents depends on the rate of preferential chromosome pairing and thus the proportion of disomic versus tetrasomic segregations. Doubled-diploid clementine largely exhibited tetrasomic segregation. However, three linkage groups had intermediate segregation and one had a tendency for disomy. Significant doubled reduction rates (DR) rates were observed in six of the nine LGs. Differences of PHR between 2n SDR and 2x DD gametes were highest in the centromeric region and progressively decreased toward the distal regions where they were not significant. Over all markers, PHR was lower (two-thirds) in SDR 2n gametes than in DD-derived diploid gametes. The two strategies appear complementary in terms of genotypic variability. Interploid 4x × 2x hybridization is potentially more efficient for developing new cultivars that are phenotypically closer to the diploid parent of the DD than sexual hybridization through SDR 2n gametes. Conversely, 2x × 2x triploidisation has the potential to produce novel products with characteristics for market segmentation strategies.

Gametic configuration and inheritance of SSR markers in tetraploid interspecific and intergeneric citrus somatic hybrids : S02P20
2012Co-Authors: Mourad Kamiri, P. Ollitrault, Marc Stift, Ikbal Srairi, Bouchra Chahidi, T. Poullet, G. Constantino, Dominique Dambier, Yann FroelicherAbstract:Citrus somatic hybridization has become an integral part of citrus improvement programs worldwide. More than 100 somatic hybrids have been created by Cirad. Intra and interspecific somatic hybrids will be used mostly for the triploid scion breeding. Intergeneric somatic hybrids can have a direct application as rootstocks or be used as parents for sexual 'tetrazyg' breeding. To optimize the design of such breeding schemes, it is essential to have knowledge of the inheritance mode in such allotetraploid hybrids. The aim of the present study was to investigate the inheritance (disomic, tetrasomic or intermediate) in a citrus interspecific hybrid (Citrus reticulata x Citrus limon) and an intergeneric somatic hybrid (C. reticulata x Poncirus trifoliata). Two triploid populations were generated using the somatic hybrids as pollinators in crosses with the diploid 'Chandler' pummelo. The triploid progenies were genotyped with SSRs to infer the allelic constitution of the somatic hybrid gametes. A likelihood-based approach was used to estimate for each locus the proportion of disomic versus tetrasomic segregations. For the two somatic hybrids, intermediate inheritance was observed with a major tendency for tetrasomic segregation in the interspecific hybrid, but a tendency for disomic inheritance in the intergeneric hybrid. The implications of the observed inheritance mode for citrus breeding are discussed with special focus on heterozygosity restitution. (Texte integral)

A Tetrasomic Inheritance Model and Likelihood‐based Method for Mapping Quantitative Trait Loci in Autotetraploid Species
The New phytologist, 2020Co-Authors: Jing Chen, Lindsey J. Leach, Jixuan Yang, Fengjun Zhang, Qin Tao, Zhenyu Dang, Yue Chen, Zewei LuoAbstract:Dissecting the genetic architecture of quantitative traits in autotetraploid species is a methodologically challenging task, but a pivotally important goal for breeding globally important food crops, including potato and blueberry, and ornamental species such as rose. Mapping quantitative trait loci (QTLs) is now a routine practice in diploid species but is far less advanced in autotetraploids, largely due to a lack of analytical methods that account for the complexities of tetrasomic inheritance. We present a novel likelihood-based method for QTL mapping in outbred segregating populations of autotetraploid species. The method accounts properly for sophisticated features of gene segregation and recombination in an autotetraploid meiosis. It may model and analyse molecular marker data with or without allele dosage information, such as that from microarray or sequencing experiments. The method developed outperforms existing bivalent-based methods, which may fail to model and analyse the full spectrum of experimental data, in the statistical power of QTL detection, and accuracy of QTL location, as demonstrated by an intensive simulation study and analysis of data sets collected from a segregating population of potato (Solanum tuberosum). The study enables QTL mapping analysis to be conducted in autotetraploid species under a rigorous tetrasomic inheritance model.

Multilocus tetrasomic linkage analysis using hidden Markov chain model
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2010Co-Authors: Lindsey J. Leach, Michael J. Kearsey, Lin Wang, Zewei LuoAbstract:The availability of reliable genetic linkage maps is crucial for functional and evolutionary genomic analyses. Established theory and methods of genetic linkage analysis have made map construction a routine exercise in diploids. However, many evolutionarily, ecologically, and/or agronomically important species are autopolyploids, with autotetraploidy being a typical example. These species undergo much more complicated chromosomal segregation and recombination at meiosis than diploids. In addition, there is evidence of polyploidy-induced and highly dynamic changes in the structure of the genome. These polysomic characteristics indicate the inappropriateness of the theory and methods of linkage analysis in diploids for use in these species and a gap in the theory and methodology of tetraploid map construction. This paper presents a theoretical model and statistical framework for multilocus linkage analysis in autotetraploids for use with dominant and/or codominant DNA molecular markers. The theory and methods incorporate the essential features of allele segregation and recombination under tetrasomic inheritance and the major challenges in statistical modeling and marker data analysis. We validated the method and explored its statistical properties by intensive simulation study and demonstrated its utility by analysis of AFLP and SSR marker data from an outbred autotetraploid potato population.

Constructing genetic linkage maps under a tetrasomic model.
Genetics, 2006Co-Authors: Zewei Luo, Lindsey J. Leach, Ze Zhang, Rongmei Zhang, John E. Bradshaw, Michael J. KearseyAbstract:An international consortium has launched the whole-genome sequencing of potato, the fourth most important food crop in the world. Construction of genetic linkage maps is an inevitable step for taking advantage of the genome projects for the development of novel cultivars in the autotetraploid crop species. However, linkage analysis in autopolyploids, the kernel of linkage map construction, is theoretically challenging and methodologically unavailable in the current literature. We present here a theoretical analysis and a statistical method for tetrasomic linkage analysis with dominant and/or codominant molecular markers. The analysis reveals some essential properties of the tetrasomic model. The method accounts properly for double reduction and incomplete information of marker phenotype in regard to the corresponding phenotype in estimating the coefficients of double reduction and recombination frequency and in testing their significance by using the marker phenotype data. Computer simulation was developed to validate the analysis and the method and a case study with 201 AFLP and SSR markers scored on 228 full-sib individuals of autotetraploid potato is used to illustrate the utility of the method in map construction in autotetraploid species.

Theoretical basis for genetic linkage analysis in autotetraploid species.
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2004Co-Authors: Zewei Luo, R. M. Zhang, Michael J. KearseyAbstract:Linkage analysis in autotetraploid species has been an historical challenge in quantitative genetics theory and is a stumbling block that urgently needs to be removed in the rapidly emerging genome research on this species, such as cultivated potato. This article presents theory of a full model of tetrasomic linkage and develops a statistical framework for the linkage analysis. The model considers both double reduction and recombination, the most essential features of tetrasomic inheritance with linked loci, whereas the statistical method takes appropriate account of the major complexities in analyzing both dominant and codominant molecular marker data during map reconstruction in tetraploid species. These complexities include the problems arising from multiple dosage of allelic inheritance, the null allele, allelic segregation distortion, mixed bivalent and quadrivalent pairing in meiosis, and incomplete information of marker phenotype data. The theoretical analysis established the relationship between the coefficients of double reduction at linked loci, which is essential in the present tetrasomic linkage analysis and in assessing the impact of double reduction on the evolution of tetraploid populations. The statistical method, based on the combination of theoretical analysis and a computer-based algorithm, provided analytical tools for predicting the maximum-likelihood estimates of the model parameters. A simulation study showed the feasibility of a practical implementation of the method, detailed the procedure of the analysis, validated the power and reliability in the parameter estimation, and compared the present method with those proposed in the current literature.
