Molecular mapping of the grain iron and zinc concentration, protein content and thousand kernel weight in wheat (<i>Triticum aestivum</i> L.)

<div><p>Genomic regions responsible for accumulation of grain iron concentration (Fe), grain zinc concentration (Zn), grain protein content (PC) and thousand kernel weight (TKW) were investigated in 286 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) derived from a cross between an old Indian wheat variety WH542 and a synthetic derivative (<i>Triticum dicoccon</i> PI94624/<i>Aegilops squarrosa</i> [409]//BCN). RILs were grown in six environments and evaluated for Fe, Zn, PC, and TKW. The population showed the continuous distribution for all the four traits, that for pooled Fe and PC was near normal, whereas, for pooled Zn, RILs exhibited positively skewed distribution. A genetic map spanning 2155.3cM was constructed using microsatellite markers covering the 21 chromosomes and used for QTL analysis. 16 quantitative trait loci (QTL) were identified in this study. Four QTLs (<i>QGFe</i>.<i>iari-2A</i>, <i>QGFe</i>.<i>iari-5A</i>, <i>QGFe</i>.<i>iari-7A</i> and <i>QGFe</i>.<i>iari-7B</i>) for Fe, five QTLs (<i>QGZn</i>.<i>iari-2A</i>, <i>QGZn</i>.<i>iari-4A</i>, <i>QGZn</i>.<i>iari-5A</i>, <i>QGZn</i>.<i>iari-7A</i> and <i>QGZn</i>.<i>iari-7B</i>) for Zn, two QTLs (<i>QGpc</i>.<i>iari-2A</i> and <i>QGpc</i>.<i>iari-3A</i>) for PC, and five QTLs (<i>QTkw</i>.<i>iari-1A</i>, <i>QTkw</i>.<i>iari-2A</i>, <i>QTkw</i>.<i>iari-2B</i>, <i>QTkw</i>.<i>iari-5B</i> and <i>QTkw</i>.<i>iari-7A</i>) for TKW were identified. The QTLs together explained 20.0%, 32.0%, 24.1% and 32.3% phenotypic variation, respectively, for Fe, Zn, PC and TKW. <i>QGpc</i>.<i>iari-2A</i> was consistently expressed in all the six environments, whereas, <i>QGFe</i>.<i>iari-7B</i> and <i>QGZn</i>.<i>iari-2A</i> were identified in two environments each apart from pooled mean. <i>QTkw</i>.<i>iari-2A</i> and <i>QTkw</i>.<i>iari-7A</i>, respectively, were identified in four and three environments apart from pooled mean. A common region in the interval of <i>Xgwm359-Xwmc407</i> on chromosome 2A was associated with Fe, Zn, and PC. One more QTL for TKW was identified on chromosome 2A but in a different chromosomal region (<i>Xgwm382-Xgwm359</i>). Two more regions on 5A (<i>Xgwm126-Xgwm595</i>) and 7A (<i>Xbarc49-Xwmc525</i>) were found to be associated with both Fe and Zn. A QTL for TKW was identified (<i>Xwmc525-Xbarc222</i>) in a different chromosomal region on the same chromosome (7A). This reflects at least a partly common genetic basis for the four traits. It is concluded that fine mapping of the regions of the three chromosomes of A genome involved in determining the accumulation of Fe, Zn, PC, and TKW in this mapping population may be rewarding.</p></div
