Abstract

QTL-seq, in combination with bulked segregant analysis and next-generation sequencing (NGS), is used to identify loci in small plant genomes, but is technically challenging to perform in species with large genomes, such as barley. A combination of exome sequencing and QTL-seq (exome QTL-seq) was used to map the mono-factorial Mendelian locus black lemma and pericarp (Blp) and QTLs for resistance to net blotch disease, a common disease of barley caused by the fungus Pyrenophora teres, which segregated in a population of 100 doubled haploid barley lines. The provisional exome sequences were prepared by ordering the loci of expressed genes based on the genome information and concatenating genes with intervals of 200-bp spacer "N" for each chromosome. The QTL-seq pipeline was used to analyze short reads from the exome-captured library. In this study, short NGS reads of bulked total DNA samples from segregants with extreme trait values were subjected to exome capture, and the resulting exome sequences were aligned to the reference genome. SNP allele frequencies were compared to identify the locations of genes/QTLs responsible for the trait value differences between lines. For both objective traits examined, exome QTL-seq identified the monogenic Mendelian locus and associated QTLs. These findings were validated using conventional mapping approaches. Exome QTL-seq broadens the utility of NGS-based gene/QTL mapping in organisms with large genomes.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 4. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 14 March 2019.
All research outputs
#7,270,497
of 22,953,506 outputs
Outputs from BMC Genomics
#3,450
of 10,686 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#138,736
of 420,315 outputs
Outputs of similar age from BMC Genomics
#82
of 223 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,953,506 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 67th percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 10,686 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.7. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 66% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 420,315 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 66% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 223 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 61% of its contemporaries.
