2 Outline Introduction Phenotypic data Illumina SNP genotyping assays Candidate gene approach Outlook soilcropandmore.info soilcropandmore.info Page 2/23 soilcropandmore.info

3 Introduction PhD project is dealing with: Monitoring the effects of natural selection in populations of Lolium perenne L. and development of markers for the trait persistence cooperation with Institute of Crop Science and Plant Breeding (IPZ) of the Bavarian State Research Center for Agriculture (LfL) fussballrasen.jpg Page 3/23

4 Introduction - Material experimental design: five locations, four years of cultivation, 19 forage varieties DNA extraction, phenotyping of the plots at the five sites and of the single plants in Steinach ( ), Bavaria Page 4/23

5 Introduction - Material Phenotyping of the plots: data from sites Hötzelsdorf, Spitalhof and Schmalenbeck (no data from Detern) e.g. traits: growth after winter, defects (diseases a.s.o.), denseness, were phenotyped each plot in four repetitions B Page 5/23 A Genotype mixtures and winter survival of variety `Guru from sites Hötzelsdorf (A) and Schmalenbeck (B) after four years of cultivation, with drastic changes being visible at Schmalenbeck.

6 Introduction - Material Phenotyping of the single plants: 96 single plants of each of the five sites were transplanted to Steinach, Bavaria with 12 plants per row in 2008 per variety and site eight rows with 12 plants each side by side arranged traits: e.g. diseases (rust, foliar diseases, Fusarium a.s.o.), heading date, mass production and others were phenotyped phenotyping from 2008 until 2011, this data available Page 6/23 horstmannrasen.de

7 Introduction - Phenotyping scheme of the Bundessortenamt (BSA), Germany used for phenotyping each trait was scored with a number (one to nine), 1 trait is not formed, 9 trait is formed clearly rasengesellschaft.de rasengesellschaft.de; Gray Leaf Spot infected Lolium leaf (Foto: Vincelli) Page 7/23

8 Results - Analysis of phenotypic data two types of sets: plots and single plants both data sets evaluated and analyzed, trends observed, hypotheses set and discussed in cooperation with Bavarian Institute, group of LfL/Dr. Hartmann rasengesellschaft.de; Gray Leaf Spot infected Lolium leaf (Foto: Vincelli) Page 8/23

11 Results - Analysis of phenotypic data plots data only for three sites available phenotyping at those sites done very differently not every trait phenotyped at every site and with the same number of repetitions possible to observe trends and to evaluate the available data statistically, but comparison between north and south Germany will be not appropriate Page 11/23 locomnet.de dominika.twoday.net

17 Results - Analysis of Illumina GoldenGate genotyping assay Page 17 results of Illumina GoldenGate assay checked with function hierarchical clustering of DiSTo2 four different varieties clustered together; some outliers expectation that genotype mixtures could cluster according to the site of origin not observed interesting: seed lots are clustering closely; Moronda Spitalhof and Hötzelsdorf different compared to rest of Moronda entries

18 Results - Candidate gene approach in 2007 Tamura & Yamada published in Theor Appl Genet: A perennial ryegrass CBF gene cluster is located in a region predicted by conserved synteny between Poaceae species CBF genes = C-repeat binding factor CBF/dehydration-responsive element binding protein 1 (DREB1) regulon Page 18/23

19 Results - Candidate gene approach CBF/DREB 1 regulon most important transcription unit involved in cold acclimation sequences available; new primer design etc. Page 19/23
