Quantitative trait analysis of transplanting time and other root-growth-related traits in tomato
چکیده انگلیسی

Transplanting time is determined by factors such as the field conditions, the age of the seedlings, and the size of the container, but little information is available on the effect of the genetic background on transplanting time. Here, we examined root dry weight (RDW), shoot dry weight, root/shoot ratio (RSR), time at which 50% of the germinated seedlings have expanded cotyledons (CE50), root ball formation (RBW), the length of time from the cotyledon expansion from the first to the last germinated seedling (ES) and transplanting time (TRD) in a BC1F6 population derived from Solanum lycopersicum and Solanum pimpinellifolium. All traits exhibited significant correlation with each other, except for RSR, which was only significantly correlated to RDW. A total of eight additive quantitative trait loci (QTLs) were detected for the five traits, i.e., RSR, RBW, CE50, ES, and TRD. One epistatic (QTL × QTL) interaction each was identified for RSR and TRD. QTLs for RSR, RBW, CE50, ES and TRD clustered near marker LEOH37 on chromosome 4. Clustering of ce50-4, rsr4, rbw4, and es4 with trd4 reflected the dependence of transplanting time on root ball formation, growth uniformity and early seedling growth, especially root growth. In addition, several QTLs in this study were mapped to regions where QTLs for days to flowering or number of leaves before the first inflorescence had been identified previously. This suggests that the roots may exert some influence on the flowering time in tomato.


► Transplanting time (TRD) and root-growth-related traits were studied in tomato.
► Using quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis, 2 main QTLs were identified for TRD.
► Six QTLs were identified for emergence, growth uniformity and root-related traits.
► Four of these QTLs clustered together with a TRD QTL in chromosome 4.
► This reflects the dependence of TRD on emergence, growth uniformity and root growth.
