Abstract:

Insertion and deletion (InDel) are abundant forms of genetic variation in the genome. InDel has been recognized as an ideal source for marker development due to its high-density distribution and genotyping efficiency. In this study, the whole genome re-sequencing data of 262 upland cotton accessions were applied to identify 3206 InDel markers, and 320 markers with uniform distribution across the genome were selected to be evaluated. Eighty-seven polymorphic markers were identified, accounting for 26.88% of screened markers. A total of 160 allelic loci were detected using the 87 polymorphic markers in the 262 upland cotton accessions with an average polymorphic information content (PIC) of 0.3073 (ranging from 0.0836 to 0.3750) and an average genetic diversity of 0.3876 (ranging from 0.0874 to 0.5000), indicating a relatively low genetic diversity. Population structure analysis revealed extensive admixture and identified two subgroups, clustering analysis and principal component analysis supported the subgroups identified by STRUCTURE. Association analysis were performed by MLM (Mixed linear model), and 65 marker loci were associated with fiber quality traits (P < 0.01), explaining 2.57%-8.12% of the phenotypic variation. Genome-wide and gel based InDel markers developed based on re-sequencing data in this study provide a facile tool for cotton germplasm resources research and molecular marker assisted selection breeding.
