摘要: Fibre strength (FS) is an important quality attribute in the modern textile industry, which is genetically controlled by quantitative trait loci (QTLs). Fine-mapping stable QTLs for FS to identify candidate genes would be valuable for uncovering the genetic basis of fibre quality traits in cotton. Here, a single segment introgression line, IL-D2 - 2, from the cross of (TM-1 x TX-1046) reported in our previous studies, was found to have significantly improved FS compared with the recurrent parent TM-1. To fine-map the QTLs of the FS, we further crossed IL-D2 - 2 with its recurrent parent TM-1 to produce F-2 and F-2.3 populations. QTL analysis and substitution mapping showed qFS-Chr. D02 was anchored into a 550.66 kb-interval between two markers, INTR1027 and JESPR-231. This interval contained 67 genes, among which 27 genes related to cell-wall synthesis were selected to conduct qRT-PCR. The results revealed seven genes were expressed significantly differently during the fibre secondary-wall-thickening stage (10-25 days post-anthesis), three being upregulated and four downregulated in IL-D2 - 2. Both GH_D02G2269 (UDP-glucosyl transferase 84B1) and GH_D02G2289 (unknown function (DUF869)) with nonsynonymous SNPs in IL-D2 - 2 had significantly downregulated expression, suggesting they were candidates for qFS-Chr. D02. This research provides information about marker-assisted selection for cotton fibre strength improvement.
