Whole-genome sequencing of tetraploid potato varieties reveals different strategies for drought tolerance.
Scientific Reports 2024 March 6
Climate changes leading to increasingly longer seasonal drought periods in large parts of the world increase the necessity for breeding drought-tolerant crops. Cultivated potato (Solanum tuberosum), the third most important vegetable crop worldwide, is regarded as drought-sensitive due to its shallow root architecture. Two German tetraploid potato cultivars differing in drought tolerance and their F1-progeny were evaluated under various drought scenarios. Bulked segregant analyses were combined with whole-genome sequencing (BSA-Seq) using contrasting bulks of drought-tolerant and drought-sensitive F1-clones. Applying QTLseqr, 15 QTLs comprising 588,983 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 2325 genes associated with drought stress tolerance were identified. SeqSNP analyses in an association panel of 34 mostly starch potato varieties using 1-8 SNPs for each of 188 selected genes narrowed the number of candidate genes down to 10. In addition, ent-kaurene synthase B was the only gene present under QTL 10. Eight of the identified genes (StABP1, StBRI1, StKS, StLEA, StPKSP1, StPKSP2, StYAB5, and StZOG1) address plant development, the other three genes (StFATA, StHGD and StSYP) contribute to plant protection under drought stress. Allelic variation in these genes might be explored in future breeding for drought-tolerant potato varieties.
