1 Marker Assisted Selection in Tomato Pathway approach for candidate gene identification and introduction to metabolic pathway databases. Identification of polymorphisms in data-based sequences MAS forward selection, background selection, combining traits, relative efficiency of selection Why (population) size matters

24 Comment on the databases: Information is not always complete/up to date. Display is not always optimal, and several steps may be needed to go from pathway > gene > potential marker. Sequence data has error associated with it. esnps are not the same as validated markers. There is a wealth of information organized and available. We will be asking for feed-back RE how best to improve the SGN database and access via the Breeders Portal

39 Missing data in SGN Limited ability to generate tables, PCR conditions sometimes incomplete, Enzyme sometimes missing, SNP not described. Missing data in Tomatomap.net SNP and sequence context requires BMC genomics supplemental table, ASPE primers, GoldenGate primers BMC Genomics 8:465

40 Where can we expect to be? TA496 ESTs with SNPs VS H1706 BAC sequences n = 1 n = 2 n = 3 n = 4 n = 5-10 n > 10 Total Where EST Coverage = Allele Coverage n = 1 n = 2 n = 3 n = 4 n = 5-10 n > 10 Total 127 not tested Proportion analysis by Buell et al., unpublished Data based on estimated ~42% of sequence, therefore expect as many as 300 markers for a cross like E6203 x H1706

41 QTL s mapped in a bi-parental cross may not be appropriate for MAS in all populations Marker allele and trait may not be linked in all populations. Genetic background effects may be population specific. Original association may be spurious. QTL detection is dependent on magnitude of the difference between alleles and the variance within marker classes. What about mapping and MAS in unstructured populations? A brief introduction to Association Mapping follows.

42 Association Mapping statistical model designed to account for population structure (Q), correct for genetic background effects (Z), and identify marker-trait linkage (Marker) Y = μ REPy + Qw + Markerα + Zv + Error

45 Association mapping Incorporates population structure and coefficient of relatedness The number of markers needed depends on the rate of LD decay (reflects recombination history) Highly specific to inference population wild species vs breeding program Sensitive to marker coverage LD decay and number of alleles (Nor, gf, and others all have multiple alleles within populations used by breeders) Will not be able to map traits where trait variation overlaps with population structure.

46 Even without sequence or marker data, there are lessons for practical breeding: Use pedigree data, knowledge of population structure, and objective data to increase precision of estimates of breeding value.

47 Take home messages: Marker resources exist for forward and background selection in elite x elite crosses in tomato. Marker resources are currently not sufficient for QTL discovery in bi-parental or AM populations; they will soon be. The best time to use genetic markers : early generation selection Restructuring of breeding program to integrate markers may include: 1) Increasing genotypic replication (population size) at the expense of replication (consider augmented designs). 2) Collecting objective data.
