Development of PCR-based markers for the identification of the S-RNase alleles in wild potato species
2012
Marcellán, Olga | Acevedo, Alberto
Sexual self-incompatibility in wild diploid potato species is controlled by a single multiallelic S-locus encoding a polymorphic stylar ribonuclease (S-RNase) that is responsible for the female function in pollen–pistil recognition. In this study, an approach using PCR-based markers were originally developed to amplify the S-RNase alleles in Solanum chacoense. Subsequently, to investigate their general applicability in Solanum, this molecular approach was successfully tested on S. spegazzinii and S. kurtzianum. Application of PCR-SSCP approach revealed potentially new S-RNase alleles in the three species, demonstrating for the first time the existence of S-RNase genetic variability within and between populations of wild diploid potato species. Species-specific SSCP markers that may be successfully used in gene flow studies was also detected in this investigation.
