Abstract:

Cloning the wheat grain superoxide dismutase(SOD)gene and developing competitive allele-specific PCR(KASP)markers related to SOD activity are of great significance for breeding wheat varieties with high SOD activity.According to the gene ID,specific primers were designed to clone the gDNA sequence of TaSOD-B1 gene.The single nucleotide polymorphism(SNP)loci were obtained by comparing the wheat genome genetic variation and Ensembl Plants database,and the KASP markers closely related to the SOD activity of wheat were developed.The practicability of the markers was verified by the correlation analysis between SOD activity and genotypes of 287 winter wheat varieties(lines).The TaSOD-B1 gene fragment of Chinese spring variety was amplified by six pairs of specific primers,and the TaSOD-B1 gene on chromosome 5B was obtained by splicing.The full length of the gene was 6 491 bp,including an open reading frame(ORF)of 1 650 bp,which encoded a total of 549 amino acids.The predicted molecular weight was 60.80 ku,the gene was composed of 12 exons and 11 introns.The intron conformed to the typical GT-AG structure.The KASP marker was developed based on the 44th base of the first exon of the TaSOD-B1 gene,and was verified by sequencing.The results showed that the genotype of the allelic variation type TaSOD-B1a was AA,which was associated with high SOD activity,and was labeled with the fluorescent gene FAM(shown as blue).The genotype of TaSOD-B1b was GG,which was associated with low SOD activity and was marked with the fluorescent gene HEX(shown as red).The detection of 287 winter wheat varieties(lines)at home and abroad showed that the SOD activity of different genotypes was significantly different.Based on the TaSOD-B1 sequence,a set of KASP markers related to SOD activity was successfully developed and could be used for genetic improvement of SOD activity.
