SNP genotyping
Bulk samples of dried leaves or kernels from up to eight D1 plants derived from the same D0, were used for DNA extraction using the cetyl trimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) procedure. DNA samples were adjusted to 50 to 70 ng/?l and 200 ng per sample were used for genotyping. DH line purity and integrity was first checked using a custom 96plex VeraCode assay (Illumina ® , San Diego, CA, USA) with genome-wide SNP markers to ensure that the lines carried only one of the parental alleles at each SNP, that they did not carry alleles of the inducer line and that they were derived from true F1 plants. For a subset of DH jak wysÅ‚ać komuÅ› wiadomość na sudy lines, 13 proprietary SNP markers assayed with the KASP™ technology (LGC Genomics, Berlin, Germany) were used for testing line purity and integrity. True DH lines were then used for genotyping with the Illumina ® MaizeSNP50 BeadChip on an Illumina ® iScan platform. Array hybridization and raw data processing were performed according to manufacturer’s instructions (Illumina ® ). Raw data were analyzed in Illumina ® ‘s Genome Studio software version v2011 (Illumina ® ) using an improved version of the public cluster file (MaizeSNP50_B.egt, ). SNP data were filtered based on the GTscore using a threshold of 0.7. Heterozygous SNPs were set to missing values (NA) and only markers with a minor allele frequency >0.1 per population were used for mapping. (more…)
