- 摘要：Ramie fiber extracted from ramie stem bark (RSB) is a highly important natural fiber, and therefore, RSB is an economically important plant organ. The genetic basis of RSB traits is poorly understood. In the present study, fiber yield and three RSB traits (bark thickness, bark weight, and fiber output ratio) were subject to quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis using an F2 agamous line population derived from two ramie varieties (Qingdaye and Zhongzhu 1). A total of 4338 high-quality single nucleotide polymorphisms were identified using the genotyping-by-sequencing technique and were subsequently used to construct a high-density genetic map spanning 1942.9 cM. Thereafter, QTL analysis identified five, two, four, and four QTLs for bark thickness, bark weight, fiber output ratio, and fiber yield, respectively. A 5.1 cM region that corresponded to a QTL for bark thickness (qBT4a) contained 106 candidate genes, and the Zhongzhu 1 allele of one of the genes, a putative MYB gene (evm.
MODEL:scaffold7373.133_D1), included a 760-bp insertion that caused premature termination, thereby producing a protein that lacked part of the MYB domain. Because MYB transcription factors play central roles in regulating the development of secondary cellular walls and fiber biosynthesis, we propose evm.
MODEL:scaffold7373.133_D1 as a likely candidate gene for qBT4a.
