Abstract:

The content of alpha' subunit of 7S globulin has an important effect on the nutritional quality and processing characteristics in soybean. In this study, using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and Western blotting, Zhonghuang 608 (ZH608), an α' subunit deletion mutant, was identified from the Zhongpin 661 (ZP661) EMS mutant library. Zhonghuang 608 was crossed to the soybean variety Dengke 1, and self-pollinated to establish an F2 segregating population composed of 210 individuals. Genetic analysis showed that the alpha' subunit deletion trait in ZH608 was controlled by a single recessive nuclear gene. By linkage analysis we mapped the locus between SSR10-1489 and SSR10-1612 on chromosome 10. Coincidentally, in the mapping region Cgy-1 (Glyma.10G246300) was annotated as an alpha' subunit synthesis-related gene according to the Williams 82 reference genome. Further sequence analysis showed that the mutant had a single base change (G 84 to A 84) in the first exon of Cgy-1, which resulted in the premature termination of the amino acid sequence. Based on the newly discovered SNP mutation, a co-dominant molecular marker was developed, and used to detect the genotypes of those F2 individuals. The results indicated that the Cgy-1 genotype cosegregated with the alpha' subunit phenotype in the F2 segregating population of Zh608 and Dengke 1. This study not only provides new materials for quality improvement, but also offers technical support for molecular breeding in soybean.

Genetic and physical mapping of the α' subunit deletion mutant Zhonghuang 608 a: the candidate gene Cgy-1 was mapped to between SSR marker SSR10-0982 and SSR10-1638 by using 210 F2 individuals. b: the candidate interval was reduced to SSR10-1489 and SSR10-1619 by SSR polymorphic markers. c: the mutation of eighty-fourth bases at the first exon of Cgy-1 gene in the mutant Zhonghuang 608, resulted in pre-terminating of encoding amino acid. Blue boxes, white boxes, and black lines represent exons, 5' UTR/3' UTR and introns, respectively."
