Soil contaminated with Cd has adverse impacts on crop yields and threatens human health via the food chain. Cultivation of low-Cd cultivars has been of particular interest and is one of the most cost-effective and promising approaches to minimize human dietary intake of Cd. Low-Cd crop cultivars should meet particular criteria, including acceptable yield and quality, and their edible parts should have Cd concentrations below maximum permissible concentrations for safe consumption, even when grown in Cd-contaminated soil. Several low-Cd cereal cultivars and genotypes have been developed worldwide through cultivar screening and conventional breeding. Molecular markers are powerful in facilitating the selection of low-Cd cereal cultivars. Modern molecular breeding technologies may have great potential in breeding programs for the development of low-Cd cultivars, especially when coupled with conventional breeding. In this review, we provide a synthesis of low-Cd cereal breeding.展开更多
雌穗是玉米重要的生殖器官,雌穗发育决定成熟果穗大小及单穗粒重,进而直接影响玉米产量。雌穗性状主要包括穗长、穗粗、穗行数、行粒数、穗重、单穗粒重等,均为多基因控制的数量遗传性状,且其遗传结构各不相同。解析雌穗性状的遗传基础...雌穗是玉米重要的生殖器官,雌穗发育决定成熟果穗大小及单穗粒重,进而直接影响玉米产量。雌穗性状主要包括穗长、穗粗、穗行数、行粒数、穗重、单穗粒重等,均为多基因控制的数量遗传性状,且其遗传结构各不相同。解析雌穗性状的遗传基础,优化雌穗结构,是玉米增产的重要途径。前人通过数量性状位点(quantitative trait locus mapping,QTL)定位和全基因组关联分析(genome-wide association study,GWAS)等方法,已经鉴定出较多雌穗性状相关的遗传位点,但是目前已鉴定功能的基因较少,所建立的遗传位点一致性图谱并不完整,因此难以全面揭示雌穗性状遗传结构。通过综合前人雌穗性状遗传定位进展,现将已鉴定QTL位点和显著关联SNP整合至玉米B73参考基因组V4版本,并鉴定出雌穗性状定位热点区间,对深入解析雌穗性状遗传结构、指导雌穗性状基因克隆和理解雌穗发育分子机制均具有重要意义。展开更多
