Dissection of Potato Complex Traits by Linkage and Association Genetics as Basis for Developing Molecular Diagnostics in Breeding Programs

Abstract

Most characters relevant for the development of commercial potato varieties are complex, meaning that they are controlled by multiple genetic and environmental factors. Over the past 20 years, potato complex traits have been dissected by linkage mapping in quantitative trait loci (QTL) using DNA-based markers. QTL mapping was performed in genetically diverse diploid and in few tetraploid bi-parental progeny. The integration of various QTL maps revealed regions in the potato genome where genes controlling complex traits are located. This in combination with mapping genes known to functionally contribute to a given phenotype identified candidate loci for complex traits. More recently, association mapping entered the stage and resulted in the identification of the first markers diagnostic for potato complex traits in populations of tetraploid cultivars related by descent. Association mapping based on DNA polymorphisms in functional and positional candidate genes identified loci that might be causal for natural variation of resistance to late blight or tuber quality traits such as processing quality and bruising resistance.
