Quantitative Trait Loci Influencing Elemental Content In Grapevine Leaves, Jesse L. Krokower
Quantitative Trait Loci Influencing Elemental Content In Grapevine Leaves, Jesse L. Krokower
MSU Graduate Theses
In grapevine, the influence of the plant’s elemental composition (the ionome) on fruit and wine quality is well established, but its genetic underpinnings have received limited scientific attention. In this study, I analyzed the leaf ionome of 131 interspecific F1 hybrid progeny plants from a cross between a Vitis rupestris Scheele (♀) and a Vitis riparia Michx (♂) parents, which were replicated in four different environments: Southwest Missouri, Central Missouri, South Dakota, and New York. I sampled leaves at three different times during the growing season at all four locations and had the concentration of 20 elements measured using ICP-MS. …
Morphological And Genetic Analysis Of The Root System In Two American Grapevines (Vitis Species), Parinaz Mohtasebi
Morphological And Genetic Analysis Of The Root System In Two American Grapevines (Vitis Species), Parinaz Mohtasebi
MSU Graduate Theses
The North American grapes species Vitis rupestris Scheele and Vitis riparia Michx have been the pillars of rootstock breeding for many decades. Though a large body of viticultural knowledge has been accumulated on their impact on grafted scions, the genetic basis of their root system architecture (RSA) has received limited scientific attention. In this study, I generated and analyzed adventitious root systems from dormant cuttings of 22 V. riparia and 19 V. rupestris accessions, as well as 162 interspecific F1 hybrid progeny from a cross between V. rupestris (♀) and V. riparia (♂). I photographed the roots and then extracted …
Mapping A New Disease Resistance Locus In An F1 Progeny Derived From Two Grape Wild Relatives, Gaurab Bhattarai
Mapping A New Disease Resistance Locus In An F1 Progeny Derived From Two Grape Wild Relatives, Gaurab Bhattarai
MSU Graduate Theses
Linkage maps and quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis have become essential tools for the positional cloning of agronomically important genes and for marker-assisted breeding. In this study, two North American grape species, Vitis rupestris and Vitis riparia, and their 294 F1 progeny were used to construct parental linkage maps and to perform QTL analysis for downy mildew resistance. Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) discovery was accomplished using genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) and resulted in 348,888 SNPs. Of these, 11,063 informative SNP markers (3.17% of the original SNP dataset) were derived after filtering for various quality parameters and missing data. A two-way …
Utilization Of Microsatellite Markers For A Comparative Assessment Of Norton And Cynthiana, And The Linkage Map Construction Of A 'Chambourcin' X 'Cabernet Sauvignon' Population, Mia Elizabeth Mann
Utilization Of Microsatellite Markers For A Comparative Assessment Of Norton And Cynthiana, And The Linkage Map Construction Of A 'Chambourcin' X 'Cabernet Sauvignon' Population, Mia Elizabeth Mann
MSU Graduate Theses
The first part of this study utilized microsatellites to comparatively assess the cultivars Norton and Cynthiana. Although isozyme and simple sequence repeat (SSR) marker analyses in 1993 and 2009 provided preliminary evidence that Norton and Cynthiana grapes are genetically identical, only five banding patterns and four microsatellite loci were reported. Microsatellites (n=185) spanning 19 linkage groups were used to compare the cultivars for a genome-wide analysis. Capillary electrophoresis results revealed Norton and Cynthiana to be identical at 98.6% of alleles. In the second part of this study, an interspecific hybrid population was generated by crossing V. interspecific hybrid 'Chambourcin' and …
