摘要： Determining the genetic basis of yield and water deficient tolerance in wheat is vital for wheat breeding programs. Herein, a genome-wide association study (GWAS) was performed for water deficient and yield-related attributes on wheat genotypes with high-density Illumina 90K Infinium SNP array. Major yield and drought-related attributes were phenotyped on a panel of Pakistani and foreign accessions grown in non-stressed and water deficient stressed environments during two crop cycles. Among all accessions, highly significant variations were shown in studied environments for examined characters. Water deficient conditions, reduced the wheat yield and had strong and positive correlation among relative water content and grain yield per plant. Population structure analyses based on 90,000 SNP data, classify the accessions into 4 sub-populations. Marker-trait association analyses (MTA) revealed that 134 significant SNPs were linked with yield and drought tolerance attributes. Pleotropic loci RAC875_s117925_244 and RAC875_c16333_340 located on chromosome 5A and 2A respectively, were significantly linked with relative water contents (RWC), cell membrane thermo-stability (CMT), grain per spike (GPS), spikelet per spike (SPS) and grain yield per plant (GYP). The markers Ra_c58279_684, BobWhite_c23828_341 and IAAV3414 located on chromosomes 2A, 6B and 7B respectively, showed pleotropic effects for RWC, GPS and GYP under both environments. The current experiment not only validated several MTAs reported in other studies but also discovered novel MTAs which significant under drought-stressed conditions. A total of 171 candidate genes were recognized that could be cloned and functionally characterized for the respective associated traits. For RWC and CMT, total 11 and 3 associated SNPs were mapped on coding DNA sequence (CDS) of the identified candidate genes. Isolation and characterization of the candidate genes herein mapped SNPs will be useful in discovering novel genes underpinning drought tolerance in bread wheat to fulfill the wheat demand and sustainable food security under limited water conditions.
