Molecular Plant Breeding Approach
SNP is a single nucleotide (A, T, C or
G) mutation, and can be discovered
from PCR, Next generation sequencing
(NGS) such as RNA-Seq, RAD-Seq, GBS.
Tool: BioEdit, DNASTAR, SAMtools,
SOAPsnp, or GATK
Marker Discovery
(SNP, SSR)
SSR is repeating sequences of 2-5 (most of them)
base pairs of DNA such as (AT)n, (CTC)n, (GAGT)n,
(CTCGA)n
Tool: SSRLocator, BatchPrimer3, MEGA6, BioEdit

Marker Implementation
• QTL/SNPs selection
Select 2-3 QTLs and 1-2 SNPs/QTL for each donor
• Epistasis
Select both QTLs if epistasis exists
• Low Linkage Disequilibrium (LD) blocks
Select QTLs located at low LD block region
• Yield info
Select QTLs independently to yield QTLs or no yield drag
Marker-assisted Backcrossing (MAB)
MAB has several advantages over conventional backcrossing:
• Effective selection of target loci
• Minimize linkage drag
• Accelerated recovery of recurrent parent

Backcrossing strategy
• Adopt backcrossing strategy for incorporating
genes/QTLs into ‘mega varieties’
• Utilize DNA markers for backcrossing for greater
efficiency – marker assisted backcrossing (MAB)

GENES
• Large amounts of donor chromosome remain even after
many backcrosses
• Undesirable due to other donor genes that negatively
affect agronomic performance
• Markers can be used to greatly minimize the amount
of donor chromosome….but how?

MAB: 2ND LEVEL OF SELECTION RECOMBINANT SELECTION
• Use flanking markers to
select recombinants between
the target locus and flanking
marker
• Linkage drag is minimized
• Require large population
sizes
• depends on distance of flanking
markers from target locus)

SELECTION
• Important when donor is a

Step 1 – select target locus

Step 2 – select recombinant on either side of target locus
OR
Step 3 – select target locus again

Step 4 – select for other recombinant on either side of target locus

OR
* Marker locus is fixed for recurrent parent (i.e. homozygous) so does not need to be selected for in BC2

MAB: 3RD LEVEL OF SELECTION BACKGROUND SELECTION
• Use unlinked markers to select
against donor
• Accelerates the recovery of
the recurrent parent genome

possible

BACKGROUND
SELECTION
Bert Collard & David Mackill. MARKER-ASSISTED BREEDING FOR RICE IMPROVEMENT
Background selection
Theoretical proportion of
the recurrent parent
genome is given by the
formula:
2n+1 - 1
2n+1
Where n = number of backcrosses,
assuming large population sizes
Percentage of RP genome after backcrossing
Important concept: although the average percentage of
the recurrent parent is 75% for BC1, some individual
plants possess more or less RP than others

Advanced backcross QTL analysis
• Combine QTL mapping
and breeding together
• ‘Advanced backcross
QTL analysis’ by Tanksley
& Nelson (1996).
• Use backcross mapping
populations
• QTL analysis in BC2 or BC3
stage
• Further develop promising

Gene Pyramiding
• Widely used for combining multiple disease
resistance genes for specific races of a pathogen
• Pyramiding is extremely difficult to achieve using
conventional methods
• Consider: phenotyping a single plant for multiple forms
of seedling resistance – almost impossible
• Important to develop ‘durable’ disease resistance
against different races

Early generation MAS
• MAS conducted at F2 or F3 stage
• Plants with desirable genes/QTLs are selected
and alleles can be ‘fixed’ in the homozygous
state
• plants with undesirable gene combinations can be
discarded
• Advantage for later stages of breeding
program because resources can be used to
focus on fewer lines
