Ae. Ten of the 11 accessions of spelt studied had the inactive tg-D1 allele on chromosome 2D, which is consistent with spelt being derived from free-threshing wheat by hybridization. While Tg-D1 and Q are consistent, Tg-B1 conflicts with what is suggested here for the missing link. Since the beginnings of agriculture, agroecosystems (i.e. The tauschii gene pool cluster consisted of accessions from Turkey, Transcaucasia, Iran, Turkmenistan, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and China. To reassess the role of spelt in the evolution of Triticum aestivum, 4 disomic substitution lines of Ae. Strong segregation distortion favoring the CS chromosome was observed at the end of chromosome 2B. tauschii is hulled, it is natural to anticipate that the primitive hexaploid wheat was hulled and that free-threshing hexaploid wheat, such as common wheat (T. aestivum ssp. The GAG56B a allele was exclusively found in European spelt and durum, whereas the p-type alleles were present in bread wheat. The phylogenetic trees were based on 100 bootstrapped samples.

No difference between classes was observed in allele counts at SSR loci on chromosomes 2A and 2D suggesting that spelt 417a harbors the tg-A1 (or sog) and tg-D1 alleles. 2004). APIdays Paris 2019 - Innovation @ scale, APIs as Digital Factories' New Machi... Mammalian Brain Chemistry Explains Everything. tauschii into T. aestivum must have taken place principally via triploid hybrids or hexaploid amphiploids from hybridization of tetraploid wheat with Ae. If, however, the tetraploid ancestor of hexaploid wheat was already free-threshing, only a single recessive mutation, from Tg-D1 to tg-D1, would be needed to make the primitive hexaploid free-threshing. Search for D-genome germplasm in 14 T. turgidum ssp carthlicum accessions with 29 RFLP loci evenly distributed across the D genome failed to reveal any D-genome germplasm in the genome of T. turgidum ssp carthlicum (Dvorak J and Luo MC, unpublished data). Compared with CS, the spikes of DS lines were slightly narrower due to more acute angle of glumes to spike rachis caused by Tg-D1 (Figure 2). Glume-tenacity scores were used as variables in GLM (SAS version 9.1) in which the genotype was nested within family. Fragments of rachises found in chaff after complete mechanical threshing are to the right of spikes. Because the source of the tg-D1 allele was the CS parent, soft-glume classes are expected to be enriched for CS alleles at SSR loci linked to tg-D1 on the 2D chromosome. Amplicons were diluted into HiDi formamide (Life Technologies, Inc.) with 0.5 μl of the PCR reaction mixed with 10 μl HiDi and 0.06 μl ROX500 size standard (Life Technologies, Inc.). Gene tree topology analyses. The fact that 8 of 10 accessions of spelt had at least one active Tg allele in the A or B genome suggests that the other parent was hulled, i.e., domesticated or wild emmer. The reverse is expected in the tenacious-glume F2 phenotypic class. Neighbor-joining (N-J) trees based on the estimated distance matrices were built using phylip. The Tg-D1 locus was located 43.5 cM from the end of the 2DS map. The number of seeds in glumes was divided by the total number of seeds in the spike. Samples were scored by comparing the microsatellite profile of the sample with those of the parental spelt and CS. tauschii. The counts of CS and spelt alleles at SSR loci linked to tg-D1 are expected to appear in a 1: 1 ratio in the soft-glume and tenacious-glume F2 progeny in this case. The origin of polyploid wheat genomes has been the subject of numerous studies and is the key problem in wheat phylogeny. tauschii expanded the diversity of wheat D genome as evidenced by shared polymorphism in T. aestivum D genome and Ae. Clipping is a handy way to collect important slides you want to go back to later. 2002; Sood et al. An N-J tree was also constructed from the nucleotide sequences of 121 D-genome genes in 13 accessions of T. aestivum, including Iranian spelt 405a, and 9 randomly selected accessions of Ae. Because SSR markers are poorly transferable between wheat genomes, gene-based SNP markers were included on the 2D map and their synteny across the 3 wheat genomes was used to predict the putative location of the Tg locus relative to SSRs in the A and B genomes. Vavilov's theory of centres of diversity in the light of current understanding of wheat diversity, domestication and evolution. Lack of genome sequence for the three homeologous and highly similar bread wheat genomes (A, B, and D) has impeded expression analysis of the grain transcriptome. The less rigorous class, referred to as soft-2, included the soft-1 plants and other phenotypically borderline plants. (2004). Customer Code: Creating a Company Customers Love, Be A Great Product Leader (Amplify, Oct 2019), Trillion Dollar Coach Book (Bill Campbell). There are 6 biological species of wheat at 3 ploidy levels: diploid (Triticum monococcum, genomes AmAm and T. urartu, geno⦠The structure of nucleotide diversity in T. aestivum shows that these events lagged greatly behind the expansion of the cultivation of hexaploid wheat resulting in the impoverishment of D-genome diversity (Akhunov et al. These markers were used in several segregating populations from crosses of spelt with CS but were not polymorphic between LDN and PI428082. Archaeological analysis of wild emmer indicates that it was first cultivated in the southern Levant [â¦] 2012. tauschii) or subspecies (T. aestivum), as was done earlier (Dvorak et al. PI367199 has the dominant Tg-A1 (or Sog) allele on 2A, the Tg-B1 allele on 2B but the tg-D1 allele on 2D. Allele counts differed significantly in both soft-1 and soft-2 classes from that in the tenacious-glume class at the SSR locus Xbarc200 on 2B, suggesting that Iranian spelt 417a had the dominant Tg-B1 allele (Supplementary Table 2). When McFadden and Sears (1946) formulated their hypothesis, spelt was known only in Europe, which conflicted with the hypothesized Asian origin of T. aestivum (Flaksberger 1930; Schiemann 1932). An excess of CS alleles was also observed at the Xgwm359 SSR locus on chromosome 2A. Substitution of the spelt allele at the Xbarc200 locus on chromosome 2B for the CS allele resulted in a significant increase in glume tenacity, indicating that PI347850 had the Tg-B1 allele, whereas CS had the tg-B1 allele on 2B. tauschii genome and the A and B genomes of tetraploid wheat. tauschii has the Tg-D1 allele (Kerber and Rowland 1974). 1998b). To obtain additional data, several contrasting F4 families were grown, and glume tenacity was quantitatively assessed as described in Materials and Methods; 0.0 was a fully free-threshing score and 1.0 was fully hulled score. While the more proximal SSR locus Xwmc25 segregated in the expected 1:1 ratio (P = 0.57), the more distal locus Xgwm210 showed an excess of CS alleles in all 3 classes, including the tenacious-glume class in which the spelt allele should had been preferred (P = 0.02). Now the tg-D1 allele can be contributed to the progeny equally by the CS and spelt parents. Because of this uncertainty, the inferred glume-tenacity genotypes on spelt chromosome 2A must be treated with caution and await for detailed mapping of genes affecting glume tenacity on the 2A chromosome of wild and domesticated emmer. This is shown by the shape of seeds in tetraploid T. turgidum ssp carthlicum, which are virtually indistinguishable from those of bread wheat. Unrooted consensus trees of 13 accessions of Triticum aestivum including Iranian spelt (bold), 9 accessions of Aegilops tauschii, 2 accessions of wild emmer from southeastern Turkey, and one accession of durum, based on nucleotide sequences of 131 A- and B-genome genes and 121 D-genome genes. The location of the gene relative to the SSR loci on the Ae. Moreover, spelt remnants are sporadic in those strata. Hexaploid wheat is an important worldwide food crop that contributes as much as 35% of the calories consumed by the global population (Godfray et al., 2010; Shewry, 2009).To meet increasing demand, it is necessary to improve various economically important traits in wheat by genetic engineering approaches (He et al., 2011; Tester and Langridge, 2010). tauschii genome that affect glume tenacity in addition to the Tg-D1 locus. The new variety, known as synthetic hexaploid wheat, boosts the genetic diversity and resilience of wheat, notoriously vulnerable due to its low genetic diversity, adding novel genes for disease resistance, nutritional quality and heat and drought tolerance. The DNA targets were PCR amplified in a 20 μl PCR reaction containing 100 ng genomic DNA, 1× PCR buffer I (Life Technologies, Inc.) with a final concentration of 1.5 mM MgCl2, 10 mM dNTPs, 50 pmol of each GSP primer, and 1 unit of Taq polymerase. The F2:3 phenotypic classification made it possible to assign each F2 plant unequivocally to 1 of the 3 monohybrid genotypic classes. The substitution of the spelt allele at the wmc112 SSR locus on 2D for the CS allele did not significantly change glume tenacity (Supplementary Table 3). Eight of the EST loci harboring SNP markers and 3 SSR loci were then mapped on the comparative Ae. It is widely believed that hexaploid wheat originated via hybridization of hulled tetraploid emmer with Aegilops tauschii (genomes DD) and that the nascent hexaploid was spelt, from which free-threshing wheat evolved by mutations. 1998b). The latter was divided by Vavilov (1935) into Asia Minor in a broader sense and Inner Asia. 2010). If such spelt hybridizes with free-threshing wheat, all 4 loci would segregate, and progeny with tenacious glumes could be produced by any combination of the 4 active alleles. Abstract. Proceedings of the Harlan Symposium; 1997; The structure of the Aegilops tauschii genepool and the evolution of hexaploid wheat, Variation in repeated nucleotide sequences sheds light on the phylogeny of the wheat B and G genomes, Department of Genome Sciences, University of Washington, Ursprungszentrum und geographische Verbreitung des Splzes (, NADP-dependent aromatic alcohol dehydrogenase in polyploid wheats and their relatives. To test the hypothesis statistically, the counts of CS and spelt alleles at SSR loci on 2A, 2B, and 2D in the soft glume–1 and –2 F2 phenotypic classes were compared with the counts of the same SSR alleles in the tenacious-glume class. 2011). ecosystems impacted by the practice of agriculture) have expanded around the globe and now cover â¼38% of the earth's landmass, excluding Antarctica (FAO 2009). Because of this significance of wheat, its origin and evolution has received extensive attention, and a great deal has been learned. Differences in spike disarticulation, allozyme polymorphism (Jaaska 1978), preliminary RFLP data (Dvorak and Luo 2001), and variation in the promoter region of HMW-glutenin genes (Blatter et al. 1) Because of the presence of Q on 5A, the glumes of hexaploid wheat ancestor would be less tenacious than those of spelt and spikes would be more compact than those of spelt because q increases glume tenacity and brings about lax spike morphology. However, Tg-B1 was also detected in Iranian spelt, suggesting that the tetraploid parent of Iranian spelt was emmer. Another Iranian spelt, 407a (=I252 in Supplementary Figure 2), had the Q allele, characteristic of free-threshing wheat, instead of the q allele expected for spelt (Luo et al. The genetic map was constructed with JoinMap (Kyazma, Inc.). The Sanger sequencing reaction contained 3.2 pmol primer, 1× sequencing buffer, and 2 μl Big Dye v3.1 (Life Technologies, Inc.). SSR locus Xwmc25 on chromosome 2B showed a significant excess of CS alleles in the soft-1 F2 class compared with the tenacious-glume class (Supplementary Table 2). vavilovi, which is a spelt-like wheat from Transcaucasia.

The likelihood of the Tg-D1 allele to persist in the progeny would be the same as that of Tg-B1. The origin of T. aestivum and other polyploid wheat spe-cies has been subject of numerous studies and the above scenario is the accepted consensus based on all evidence. strangulata) and RL5406 (Ae. compactum), and the endemic Indian dwarf wheat (T. aestivum ssp. There will of course be also no enrichment for spelt SSR alleles in the tenacious-glume class. An aliquot of 5 μl from PCR reactions containing amplicons of high quality were treated with 2 units shrimp alkaline phosphatase (USB) and 10 units of exonuclease I (USB) in a 10 μl reaction. The origin and evolution of the wheat group (the genera Aegilops, Amblyopyrum, and Triticum) in the wild and under cultivation is reviewed.The diploid species diverged from a common ancestor, about 2â4 million years ago, presumably in the marginal Mediterranean region of Southwest Asia. These relationships point to a region from Transcaucasia to southwestern Caspian Iran as the birthplace of T. aestivum (Dvorak et al. The location of markers accompanied by cM (to the left of a chromosome) was determined here. A total of 2458 polymorphic sites were analyzed. A single spike was wrapped in a small piece of cotton fabric, laid on a wooden board at a 45° angle relative to the axis of the board, and rolled over 3 times with a 15 kg PVC roller while the fabric including the spike was held immobile on the board. N-J trees were built for all Ae. Durum wheat cultivars were derived from domesticated emmer, while common hexaploid wheat originated from a combination of emmer and the diploid T. tauschii (donor of the "D" genome). Progenitor of the A-genome of the tetraploid and hexaploid ⦠The glume tenacity of these DS lines was compared with that of spelt, parental synthetic wheats, TetraCanthatch (the tetraploid parent of the synthetics), and CS. The free-threshing F2 plants must be homozygous for the tg-D1 allele (and other soft-glume alleles on chromosomes 2A, 2B, and 5A). The presence of the C allele on spelt chromosome 2D showed that the free-threshing parent of European spelt PI330558 was club wheat (T. aestivum ssp compactum). Glume tenacity was quantified in individual plants of some F4 families. Most accessions of Asian spelt also appeared to be related to each other and were allocated to the same branch in the D-genome N-J tree. The soft-1 class also showed an excess of CS alleles over the spelt alleles, but the number of genes in that class was insufficient for the test to be statistically significant. II. CS was crossed with DSAt2D5403(CS2D), F1 progeny was self-pollinated and 288 F2 progeny and the parental lines were grown in the greenhouse. If that were indeed the case and if European spelt were indeed derived, the search for the ancestor of free-threshing wheat should focus on Asian spelt. Glume tenacity was quantified in several segregating F4 families. Each synthetic wheat was crossed as a male with CS monosomic 2D. This difference was undoubtedly an artifact because it suggested that spelt had a soft-glume allele and the CS had a tenacious-glume allele (Supplementary Table 2). This finding is consistent with suggestions that European spelt was derived from hybridization of hulled emmer with free-threshing hexaploid wheat (Schiemann 1932; Mac Key 1966). tauschii ssp strangulata, or tauschii gene pool accessions, affiliated with Ae. Geographic origin of investigated accessions of spelt. The descent of hexaploid wheat from free-threshing tetraploid wheat is also more consistent with the origin and distribution of the Q gene. 2000). Because hybridization of hexaploid wheat with Ae. tauschii (Dvorak et al. Strangulata gene pool accessions from southwestern Caspian Iran collected in the vicinity of Rasht formed a branch that was closer to the wheat branch than other branches within the strangulata gene pool (Supplementary Figure 1). It is widely believed that hexaploid wheat originated via hybridization of hulled tetraploid emmer with Aegilops tauschii (genomes DD) and that the nascent hexaploid was spelt, from which free-threshing wheat evolved by mutations. Spikes of CS and DS lines in which CS chromosome 2D was replaced by Aegilops tauschii chromosome 2D from synthetic wheats in Figure 1. Wheat is a grass widely cultivated for its seed, a cereal grain which is a worldwide staple food. This fact and the observation that genotypes of different accessions of Iranian spelt differ from each other suggest that, if Iranian spelt population is the ancestor of T. aestivum, it was very likely subsequently hybridized with other wheat. Monosomic F1 progeny were selected on the basis of root chromosome count and recurrently backcrossed to CS monosomic 2D, selecting monosomic progeny in each generation. Significant differences between CS and spelt allele counts at the SSR locus Xgwm636 on 2A were observed between the soft-1 and the soft-2 glume classes on one hand and the tenacious-glume class on the other hand. We used the genome sequences of hexaploid bread wheat subgenomes (denoted TaA, TaB, and TaD) and five diploid relatives (T. monococcum, T.urartu, Ae.sharonensis, Ae.speltoides, and Ae.tauschii) (7, 17, 18) to generate a genome-wide sample of 275 gene trees and to estimate the phylogenetic history of the A, B, and D genome lineages. The origin of cultivated wheat is located in the Ancient Mediterranean (syn.=Old Mediterranean) which includes, according to Vavilov's last paper (1940), the Mediterranean region and Southwest Asia. The authors are grateful to E. R. Kerber for supplying synthetic wheats and their parents, which made this research possible. Oxford University Press is a department of the University of Oxford. Marker Xwmc25 on chromosome 2B showed a statistically significant excess of CS alleles over the spelt alleles in the soft-1 group compared with the tenacious-glume group (Supplementary Table 2), suggesting that PI330558 had the Tg-B1 allele on chromosome 2B. Spike rachises in synthetic wheats were more fragile than in CS; DS lines were intermediate (Figures 1 and 2). tauschii 2D chromosomes present in synthetic hexaploid wheats RL5402, RL5403, RL5405, and RL5406 (Figure 1) were substituted for CS chromosome 2D by backcrossing each synthetic wheat 6 or 7 times to CS monosomic 2D (Figure 2 and Table 2). Agriculture began in the Neolithic period â¼10,000 years before present (Smith 1998). No segregation distortion and no enrichment for CS alleles were observed at the Xwmc261 locus on chromosome 2D. However, free-threshing hexaploid wheat seems to precede spelt in the archaeological record in those sites (Nesbitt and Samuel 1996). These data suggest that Azerbaijan spelt VIR 45366 harbors the dominant Tg-A1 and recessive tg-D1 allele, whereas the genotype at the 2B locus is unknown. Triticum turgidum evolved by hybridization of T. urartu with a close relative of Aegilops speltoides (genomes SS) (Sarkar and Stebbins 1956; Nishikawa 1983; Dvorak and Zhang 1990; Dvorak et al. Therefore, if spelt originated as McFadden and Sears (1946) imagined, spelt genotype would be Tg-A1/Tg-A1 (or Sog/Sog); Tg-B1/Tg-B1;Tg-D1/Tg-D1;qq. The data indicated that PI347926 had the Tg-B1 allele on chromosome 2B. 2010; Dvorak et al. All rights reserved. Current data suggest that free-threshing wheat was an ancestor of not only European spelt but also of some of the Asian forms of spelt although the exact role free-threshing wheat has played is debatable. S, Q, and C stand for spelt-like, square-head, and compact spike morphology, respectively. 2007; Sood et al. Glumes of each F3 plant were subjectively assigned into 1 of the 3 phenotypic classes. Using the properties of the synthetic wheats as an approximation of nascent hexaploid wheat, the following characteristics would set the hexaploid apart from spelt. Five of the 11 F2 progenies segregated plants with compact spikes (Table 4). The location of the Tg locus in the A genome of T. aestivum or that of T. urartu is unknown but a gene controlling soft glumes (Sog) was mapped on the short arm of chromosome 2Am in T. monococcum (Taenzler et al. Its domestication marks the transition from huntingâgathering to agrarian economy in western Asia, which marks the dawn of the evolution of western civilization. 2009). The database also contains genome-specific primers (GSPs) for PCR amplification of these ESTs from polyploid wheat. The synthetic hexaploid wheat resembled spelt (T. aestivum ssp spelta, genomes BBAADD). Segregation was investigated in the cross CS × PI330558 (Table 5). According to current knowledge, free-threshing hexaploid wheat must be simultaneously homozygous for inactive tg (or sog) alleles on 2A, 2B, and 2D. The branch was separate from a branch formed by the European accessions of spelt, indicating that Asian and European accessions of spelt were polyphyletic. tauschii EST genetic map (Luo et al. One parent of each synthetic was a tetraploid extraction from hexaploid Canadian cultivar Canthatch (TetraCanthatch) (Kerber 1964) and the other parent was an Ae. These data suggest that PI297861 harbored the Tg-B1 and tg-D1 allele. © The American Genetic Association. tauschii chromosome 2D replaced CS chromosome 2D were produced. 2009) and 2E in Lophopyrum elongatum (Dvorak and Chen 1984). There will therefore be no enrichment for the CS alleles at SSR loci linked to tg-D1 in F2 in the soft-1 and soft-2 phenotypic classes. These earliest allopolyploid hybrid forms of common wheat were named ââsynthetic hexaploid wheat.â Since the ⦠meyeri) were members of the strangulata gene pool cluster (Figure 4). (2009), the Sog region was inferred to be in a 18.5-cM region proximal to Xwmc177. The presence of the Tg-A1 allele on chromosome 2A was detected in only 2 accessions. It is proposed that the tetraploid parent of hexaploid wheat was not hulled emmer but a free-threshing form of tetraploid wheat. This region shows poor synteny with the sequenced grass genomes (Pourkheirandish et al. 1. Blockchain + AI + Crypto Economics Are We Creating a Code Tsunami? Most accessions of spelt had Tg-B1 but only one had Tg-D1 (P < 0.01). RFLP and SNP data reported earlier (Dvorak et al. The extent of genetic erosion of landraces in tetraploid wheat germplasm from Ethiopia was also evaluated. tauschii ssp. Each spelt was crossed with CS and F2 families including the parental lines were planted in blocks of 3-m rows in the field. This work was supported by grant 99-35301-7905 from the USDA National Research Initiative, Genetic Mechanisms Program and grant DBI-0321757 from the National Science Foundation, Plant Genome Research Program. On these grounds and other evidence, the ancestral position of European spelt was questioned (Schiemann 1932; Mac Key 1966). tauschii, relative to simple sequence repeat (SSR) and expressed sequence tag loci on wheat chromosome 2D.

European spelt appeared to be largely monophyletic and formed a separate branch in the tree, confirming separate origins of Asian and European spelt. tauschii accessions (Supplementary Table 1) clustered into 2 distinct branches consisting largely of either strangulata gene pool accessions, affiliated with Ae. The following scenario of the evolution of free-threshing hexaploid wheat is proposed here (Figure 5). A mutation from Tg-D1 to tg-D1 converted the ancestral hexaploid wheat into a fully free-threshing form. Flax, Linum usitatissimum (one of the ⦠No segregation distortion accompanied loci on chromosomes 2A and 2D: Xwmc112 (P = 0.232) and Xgwm261 (P = 0.239). Allele counts differed significantly in soft-2 glume class from that in the tenacious-glume class at the SSR locus Xbarc200 on 2B. The exceptional emmer with Q could be ancestral to free-threshing wheat or derived from it by hybridization. Because Xwmc112 is proximal to Xgwm261 (Figure 3), the gene controlling compact spike must be proximal to these 2 genes, which agrees with the location of the wheat C gene controlling compact spike morphology in wheat (Unrau 1950; Worland and Law 1986; Johnson et al. Additional evidence for the derived origin of European spelt was more recently provided by the distribution of the a and p B-genome γ-gliadin alleles in tetraploid and hexaploid wheat (von Buren 2001). If Iranian spelt is ancestral to all hexaploid wheat, its D genome should have the same basal position in the tree as Chinese wheat. Although the exact topology of the tree based on the A- and B-genome genes differed from that based on the D-genome genes (Figure 4), the wheat accessions, including the Iranian spelt, formed a single monophyletic branch with 100% bootstrap confidence. Sog was found to be proximal to the region where Tg should be located, and it is unlikely that Sog and Tg are orthologous (Sood et al. Because glume tenacity is a quantitative trait based on at least 4 incompletely dominant genes, it is difficult to discriminate unequivocally between free-threshing and hulled plants. The alignment of the wheat 2D map with the Ae. Free-threshing syndrome is postulated to have originated at the tetraploid level. Because of this significance of wheat, its origin and evolution has received extensive attention, and a great deal has been learned. Summary of phenotypic segregation in the F2 generation and inferred tenacious-glume locus genotypes in spelt. genotypes, differing in country of origin, taxonomy and ploidy (tetraploids vs. hexaploids). However, the same allele substitution in 2 nonsegregating F4 families resulted in a statistically significant increase in glume tenacity. Several primitive hexaploid wheat subspecies were included in addition to spelt: Macha wheat (T. aestivum ssp macha), which is an endemic Georgian wheat with brittle rachis, Yunan wheat (T. aestivum ssp yunanense), which is spelt-like wheat grown along the Lujiang and Lanchangijang rivers in Yunan, China, Tibeatan wheat (T. aestivum ssp tibetanum), which is feral wheat with brittle rachis in Tibet, and T. aestivum ssp. The sequencing reaction was precipitated and then dissolved in 12 μl of HiDi formamide (Life Technologies, Inc.) and sequenced with the ABI3730xl (Life Technologies, Inc.).
