A direct PCR–based SNP marker–assisted selection system (D-MAS) for different crops
2020
As more and more re-sequencing genome data in crops were released, SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphisms) are easily achieved for genotyping and show the highest abundance among all kinds of molecular markers. However, high-throughput SNP genotyping methods, such as KASP (Kompetitive Allele Specific PCR), TaqMan, or ARMS (amplification refractory mutation system), are always labor on DNA extraction and depending on expensive equipment. Therefore, most breeders are undergoing the bottleneck of lacking an easy, cost-saving, and stable genotyping system. Here, we report a direct PCR–based medium-throughput SNP marker–assisted selection (D-MAS) system suits available major crops including rice, wheat, maize, and rapeseed. The D-MAS system, which reduces the time of manual operation and result analysis dramatically, contains (1) seedling breeding in greenhouse; (2) high-throughput DNA extraction by alkaline lysis; and (3) gel-free SNP marker detection with 384-well by PARMS (penta-primer amplification refractory mutation) or KASP genotyping system. The stability of alkaline lysis DNA was validated by flexible dilution fold and long storing time under low temperatures. The alkaline lysis DNA from four F2 populations of rice, wheat, maize, and rapeseed showed equal efficiency in SNP calling relative to the ones from cetyl trimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) method. With the alkaline lysis DNA, PAMRS showed denser genotype cluster than KASP. Furthermore, the D-MAS system was adaptive with rice old leaves. The throughput and efficiency of the D-MAS system were validated in the hybrid rice seed purity test with a Xian-Geng-specific SNP marker which is also recommended to select ipa1-2d gene in the rice molecular breeding. In conclusion, we proposed a direct PCR–based SNP calling pipeline, which could be a simple, cheap, and robust standard operation procedure (SOP) of molecular breeding for different crops and get extensive use in most laboratory.
