1 Development of Molecular Markers for MAS in Lettuce (Lactuca sativa) Application of High-Resolution DNA Melting Analysis Ivan Simko

2 Lettuce production Fresh vegetables in 2008 (mil. $): Lettuce. 1,979 omato. 1,414 Onions. 865 antaloupes 776 Peppers 763 Sweet corn Broccoli 708 arrots % 20% alifornia 71% Arizona 27% 53% Economic Research Service, USDA

3 Why do we need markers? onventional breeding is time consuming and depends on environmental conditions. Breeders are interested in technologies that could make this procedure more efficient. Molecular marker technology offers improved selection strategies in breeding

4 Marker-assisted selection Phenotypic selection Marker-assisted selection Desired material Segregating material Not phenotyped accurately Desired material Segregating material Not phenotyped accurately

5 Marker-assisted selection is more efficient than selection based on phenotype If evaluation is: ime consuming Difficult ostly Performed off season If used for: Gene pyramiding Early stages of development Several selections simultaneously Low heritability traits

6 MAS in lettuce Downy mildew (Dm3) ornell University Dm3 is defeated by new races of Bremia lactucae

7 MAS in lettuce orky root (cor1) 60-80% accurate U Davis

8 MAS in lettuce LMV (mo1) INRA alleles mo1 1 & mo1 2
