Popis: | Microsatellites are highly polymorphic and efficient markers for the analysis of plant genomes. Primer specificity, however, may restrict the applicability of these markers even between closely related species for comparative mapping studies. We have demonstrated that the majority of microsatellites identified in oilseed rape (Brassica napus L; AC genome) correspond to loci which can be easily assigned to the A and C progenitor genomes. A study with 63 primer pairs has shown that 54% detect two loci, one from each genome, while 25% and 21%, respectively, are either A or C genome-specific. The distribution of rapeseed microsatellites in the C genome was investigated by genetic mapping in Brassica oleracea L. Ninety two dinucleotide microsatellites were screened for polymorphism in an F2 population derived from a cross between collard and cauliflower, for which an RFLP map has been constructed previously. Thirty three primer pairs (35.7%) have yielded either unspecific or no PCR products whereas the remaining primer pairs amplified one or more distinct loci. The level of polymorphism found in the mapping population was 49.2%. A total of 29 primer pairs disclosed 34 loci of which 31 are evenly distributed on 8 of the 9 B. oleracea linkage groups. For the remaining three markers linkage could not be established. Our results showed that microsatellite markers from the composite genome of B. napus can serve as a useful marker system in genetic studies and for plant-breeding objectives in B. oleracea. |
