Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic Structure and Diversity in Oryza sativa L.
TL;DR: Nuclear and chloroplast data support a closer evolutionary relationship between the indica and the aus and among the tropical japonica, temperate japonicas, and aromatic groups, and can be explained through contrasting demographic histories.
Journal ArticleDOI
Population Structure and Its Effect on Haplotype Diversity and Linkage Disequilibrium Surrounding the xa5 Locus of Rice (Oryza sativa L.)
TL;DR: This work has characterized linkage disequilibrium in the candidate region for xa5, a recessive gene conferring race-specific resistance to bacterial blight in rice that has good mapping information, a tractable phenotype, and available sequence data, but no cloned gene.
Journal ArticleDOI
Through the genetic bottleneck: O. rufipogon as a source of trait-enhancing alleles for O. sativa
Susan R. McCouch,Megan Sweeney,Jiming Li,Hui Jiang,Michael J. Thomson,Michael J. Thomson,Endang M. Septiningsih,Endang M. Septiningsih,Jeremy D. Edwards,Jeremy D. Edwards,P. Moncada,Jinhua Xiao,Jinhua Xiao,Amanda J. Garris,Amanda J. Garris,Tom Tai,César P. Martínez,Joe Tohme,M. Sugiono,Anna M. McClung,Long Ping Yuan,Sang-Nag Ahn +21 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that AB-QTL analysis is capable of successfully uncovering positive alleles in wild germplasm that were not obvious based on the phenotype of the parent, and offering an estimation of the breeding value of exotic germ plasm.
Journal ArticleDOI
High resolution genetic mapping and candidate gene identification at the xa5 locus for bacterial blight resistance in rice ( Oryza sativa L.).
Matthew W. Blair,Amanda J. Garris,Anjali S. Iyer,Brad Chapman,Stephen Kresovich,Susan R. McCouch +5 more
TL;DR: Candidate-gene analysis revealed that a basal transcription factor (TFIIa), an ABC transporter, a tRNA synthase, a MAP kinase and a cysteine protease are encoded at the locus and could be potential candidates for the resistance gene product.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of marker sets useful in the early selection of Ren4 powdery mildew resistance and seedlessness for table and raisin grape breeding
Siraprapa Mahanil,David W. Ramming,Molly Cadle-Davidson,Christopher L. Owens,Amanda J. Garris,Sean Myles,Sean Myles,Lance Cadle-Davidson +7 more
TL;DR: These results provide novel markers for tracking and pyramiding this unique resistance gene and for further functional characterization of this region on chromosome 18 encoding multiple disease resistance and seedlessness.
