Abstrakt: Aluminium toxicity is a major problem for crop production on acid soils. Rye ( Secale cereale L.) has one of the most efficient group of genes for aluminium tolerance, at least, four independent and dominant loci, Alt1, Alt2, Alt3 and Alt4, located on chromosome arms 6RS, 3RS, 4RL and 7RS, have been described. The increasing availability of expressed sequence tags in rye and related cereals provides a valuable resource of non-anonymous DNA molecular markers. In order to obtain simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers related with Al tolerance more than 1,199 public accessible rye cDNA sequences from Al-stressed roots were exploited as a resource for SSR markers development. From a total of 21 S. cereale microsatellite (SCM) loci analysed, 12 were located on chromosomes 1R, 2R, 3R, 4R and 5R, using wheat–rye addition lines or mapped using a F2 population segregating for Al tolerance. Seven SCM loci were included in a rye map with other SCIM and RAPD markers. Moreover, 14 SCM loci could be associated to proteins with known or unknown function. The possible implications of these sequences in aluminium tolerance mechanisms are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
