THE CHASMTHE CHASM


MAB routine

Trait low priority

Different germplasm

Unknown functional alleles

Weak linkage

Unknown genetic action

Unknown environ. effects

Unknown linkage drag

No local genotyping

Not cost efficient

No training in routine MASS

RosBREED OBJECTIVESRosBREED OBJECTIVES

1) Enhance new cultivar adoption, enlarge market potential, increase consumption– socio-economics knowledge of trait values

2) Establish sustainable infrastructure for MAB in Rosaceae– MAB Pipeline components

3) Integrate breeding and genomics information- breeding information management system (incl. PBA)

4) Conduct MAB in core breeding programs, fruit quality– MAB Pipeline implementation

5) Enhance sustainability of cultivar development– MAB tech transfer, engage other stakeholders

Associations

SOCIO-ECONOMICS• Surveys, interviews, and auctions to determine trait

economic weights• Compare to more subjective traditional trait rankings

Economically weighted and objectively defined selection targets for breeding and research

Development

• Existing and de novo SNPs, gene-based• SNP Detection Panels (at least 7-10 indiv per crop)• Focus on fruit quality and family-wide genes• Physical mapping (using whole genome sequences)• Genetic mapping (bin-mapping to ~2 cM intervals)

Choose genome-wide SNPs for at least one segregating gene-based marker per 5 cM for any random cross

GENOME SCANSScans

• SNP Platform Summit (early 2010) to decide best approach•Genome scan each crop

• Crop Reference Set for each crop (n=480)• Breeding Pedigree Set for each breeding program

SNP genotypic data publicly available Integrated with phenotypic & pedigree data

using Pedigree-Based Analysis

GENOME SCANS

• SNP-tagged genes will often be common across crops

• Much opportunity for comparative genomics:

• Chromosome alignment across crops

• Many individuals available for comparisons

• Focus on specific genes and genomic regions

Functional connections among Rosaceae crops and researchers created and enhanced

COMPARATIVE GENOMICS

BIMS• Stats programs, databases, and decision-support tools with

seamless interfacing• Includes PBA (PRI team – needs assessment, training,

support)• Stepwise introduction of BIMS to breeders

Streamlined collection, archiving, conducting, andinterpreting integrated breeding & genomics data

MAB PIPELINE IMPLEMENTATION• Put the 8-stage MAB Pipeline into practice• Demonstrate MAB with high-impact targets• Achieve routine MAB by core breeding programs• Technology transfer to all interested U.S. Rosaceae breeders

Routine marker-assisted breeding for U.S. Rosaceae
