Durum wheat (Triticum turgidum) with an average annual production of 40 million tons, is the tenth most important and common crop grown worldwide. The aim of this study was to analysis the genetic diversity and population structure of durum wheat genotypes for knowledge and apply in future genomic studies using SilicoDArT markers generated by DarTseq.

The DNA of 94 durum wheat genotypes were extracted by CTAB method from fresh leaves. The quality and quantity of extracted DNA were measured using spectrophotometer and adjusted to 50 ng / μl. The DNA samples were processed at Diversity Array Technology Pty, Ltd, Australia (https://www.diversityarrays.com) for DArTseq analyses using genotyping by sequencing Platform. Genetic diversity and population structure analysis were performed on the remaining 7882 markers using: Power Markerv.3.25, DARwinver 5.0, STRUCTURE2.1., GenAlexv. 6.41 and Rv3.2.3 software.

The amount of polymorphic information content (PIC) of SilicoDArT markers ranged from 0.023 to 0.499 with an average of 0.38. The mean reproducibility and call rate of sequences in all linkage groups were above 0.98 and 0.92, respectively. The number of mapped SilicoDArT markers varied from 300 markers in the linkage group (Chr1A) to 853 markers in the linkage group (Chr7B). Chromosome size covered by SilicoDArT markers ranged from 829200 kbp in the linkage group (Chr3B) to 589293.786 kbp in the linkage group (Chr1A). The results of cluster analysis by Neighbor-Joining (NJ) method, population structure and discriminant analysis of principal components were highly consistent with each other and clearly divided the studied genotypes into four distinct groups. Genetic diversity among populations was primarily within the population (76.36 vs. 23.64%).

The relatively high number of subpopulations and the presence of high genetic diversity among and within populations were the characteristics of studied durum wheat genotypes in this study. Therefore, considering the loss of 84% genetic diversity of durum wheat during the early domestication processes, these populations can be used as a valuable resource in basic and applied research in breeding projects.

Tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) is an industrial plant that play important role in economy of most countries. Oriental tobacco is a sun-cured, small-leafed, highly aromatic type of tobacco with limited information about its agronomic and chemical characteristics and their genetic control. This research was conducted to prepare the genetic linkage map of oriental type tobacco in a recombinant inbred line population (103 lines) produced from the cross between SPT406 (male parent) and Basma seres 31 (female parent) and identification of genomic locations controlling some agronomic characteristics accompanied with chlorine content under field conditions. Markers including SSR, ISSR, REMAP and IRAP were utilized in construction of genetic linkage map. Linkage map comprising 46 markers was developed which covered 586.1 cM of tobacco genome and the average distance between two markers was 12.74 cM. Number of markers per linkage groups varied between 2 to 13. In this study, 19 QTLs with phenotypic variation between 13.2 to 40.1 were identified for characteristics including leaf length, leaf width, leaf number, plant height, internode distance, stem girth, dry leaf yield, photosynthesis value and leaf chlorine content using composite interval mapping. Co-localized QTLs were recognized in linkage groups 1, 3 and 5. Highest values of phenotypic variation achieved in the present study manifest the possibility for using identified retrotransposon and microsatellite markers in marker assisted selection programs of oriental type tobacco.
